Top 8 Best Chinese Essay Books

Every day at eighteen or twenty, we all dream big, yearning to break free from the embrace of our families. But as we grow older, it seems like our dreams fade away bit by bit... We slow down, lower our expectations, and exert less effort. It's as if we're no longer young.

And then, the hustle and bustle of life sweeps away your dreams like leaves in a stream. You hurriedly grow up, love, live, and forget the aspirations you once had. 'Well, I guess I'm grown up now,' you think?

But do you know this: Living a passionate life or a peaceful life at home... the choice is yours?

Your youth is not defined by age or numbers; it's defined by passion, by the fire, by the desire within you.

A day when you still live with aspirations, still have the courage to face challenges, that's your youth.

Being young and foolish is okay, but don't give up.

Being young and making mistakes is okay, but don't fall.

Being young and moving slowly is okay, but don't forget the dreams of your life.

If youth is devoid of struggle, if it's just quiet days passing by, arranged by your parents, a lifetime of mediocrity... Isn't that a waste?

Written by one of China's most talented young authors, Lu Tu Hao, 'Dare to Dream Big, Don't Waste Your Youth' ignites a small, bright flame in your heart to reignite the fierce dreams within you.

Because outside, there are skies, there are journeys, there are jobs you crave, there are dreams you once had... No success lurks within the confines of your safety box.

In the vibrant days of youth, you dared not take risks, dared not strive for scholarships, refused to seek out work challenges, and didn't strive towards your dreams. You dreamed of finishing work and joining a famous company, thinking that after a while you'd rise through the ranks. Dreaming that after starting a business, you'd immediately get investment money, and with investment money, you'd be listed on the stock exchange. Dreaming that you'll get whatever you want, never lacking money or love, enjoying peaceful years in your life.

But why do you think that you don't need to put in any effort, and life will hand you everything you desire? You need to understand that: Hastily wanting quick success often leads us astray. Youth is the most beautiful time in life, but also the crucial years that can determine one's future. If you choose comfort for 10 years, the future will force you to toil for 50 years to make up for it. If you toil and struggle for 10 years, what you're sure to have is 50 years of happiness. The most valuable thing is not money but time.

So, my friend, don't choose comfort when you're young.

Ever wonder: Why do we have to strive so hard while others seem to effortlessly have it all?

Why do we have to run at full speed while others stroll carelessly?

Truth be told, most of us aren't blessed by the heavens or endowed with natural talents. Yet, everyone dreams of a fulfilling life, of being free to travel far and wide, of living authentically in their youthful years…

We dream aplenty, but how many of us truly persevere?

We want to change the world, yet we can't even break our own bad habits. We want to travel, yet we're too lazy to even walk downstairs to get food. We want to learn new things, yet we lack the courage to open the first page of a book. Slowly, we become passive beings, only lamenting and blaming fate, unwilling to make an effort but still longing for swift achievement.

A rough stone needs thousands of hammer blows to become an admired masterpiece. A raw gemstone holds little value until it undergoes the arduous process of polishing to reveal its hidden brilliance. Life is the same; only when you endure what others cannot, when you dare to walk the path few tread, does success smile upon you.

The great human rights activist Martin Luther King, Jr. once said: “If you can't fly, then run, if you can't run, then walk, if you can't walk, then crawl, but whatever you do, you have to keep moving forward.” You may be ordinary, clumsy, or slower than others, but you must persevere more than them, endure longer than them. Because a moment of hesitation is all it takes to fall behind thousands. If you're not brave, if you don't make an effort, no one will be strong for you!

Lost, tired, lacking motivation, unsure how to deal with your youth... if you're feeling this way, try reaching for “Born clumsy, compensate with perseverance” by Lư Tư Hạo.

Not excessively preachy or grandiose, “Born clumsy, compensate with perseverance” offers simple heartfelt words to accompany you through the roughest paths of youth. In a world where so many tell us how to live, sometimes all you need is a word of empathy, a shared understanding.

“Just keep striving like this.
Hope you and I can live as ourselves more and more as time goes by.”

“Human life spans a hundred years, passing by hastily, how many landscapes await you to admire, how many stories await you to fill. Encounters, pursuits, gains and losses in the journey, are all forms of cultivation. The lunar cycle gradually passes, sometimes seemingly accidental, sometimes deliberate, without being stubborn about everything, then joy won't turn into boredom, sadness won't turn into despair. Human life is like sailing a boat on the waves, so maintain inner peace, only then can you calmly navigate, from haste to leisure, from noise to serenity”Link to buy: shopee.vn/Sách-Ngoảnh-lại-đã-một-đời-i.458479565.4492609890?
