It happened that the wing of the plane clinched behind the slope of the mountain and he, having lost the balance, collapsed down the stone. When hitting the land, 13 passengers immediately crashed to death, but 32 people survived, having received heavy injuries. The remaining alive were in the conditions of extremely low temperatures, lack of water and food. They drank the snow and slept side by side to not freeze. Food was so little that everyone did everything to find at least some living life for a common lunch.

After 9 days of such survival in conditions of cruel cold and hunger, the victims of the disaster decided to extreme measures: to survive, as food, they began to use the corpses of comrades. So the group lasted for another 2 weeks, at the end of which the hope of being saved completely melted, and the radio station (sending aid signals) was faulty.

On the 60th day after the accident, Nando and his two friends decided to go through the icy desert for help. By the time they left, the crash site looked terribly - impregnated with urine and smelling death, rolled with human bones and cartilage. Owing on themselves 3 pairs of pants and cooked, he with a couple of friends overcame huge distances. Their little rescue team understood that they were the last hope for everyone who was still alive. Men persistently survived exhaustion and cold pursuing them on the heels. On the 10th day of the wanders, they still found the path to the foot of the mountain. There, they finally met the Chilean Farmer, the first person for all this time, which immediately called the police to help. Parrado led the rescue team with a helicopter and found a disaster. As a result, on December 22, 1972 (after 72 days of brutal struggle with death), only 8 passengers remained alive.

According to doctors, the cause of ahondroplasia lies in the growth of the growth gene, which leads to dwarfs. Boy's family revenues were pretty scanty: the mother taught music, and the father (once an insurance agent) became unemployed. Not the most rainbow childhood cassed out the speeches before the public with the elder brother - a talented violinist.

Usually, Glory comes to the actors pretty early, but a happy star lit for Peter only in 2003 (when Peter was already 34 years old) after the release of the film " Stationery" Not too rich track record In the first years of career, the career is explained by the accuracy of the actor to film, in which dwarfs are usually involved.

The worldwide love of fans, an impressive state (which has several tens of millions of dollars) - many will envy this. That's just the life of the Macla only seems cloudless. The actor was no more than 30 years when he began to develop symptoms of Parkinson's disease, although this disease usually occurs in old age.

15. Stephen Hawking: paralyzed genius, inspiring millions of people to study science

Speaking of people who have committed impossible, it is impossible not to mention the shine modern science - Stephen Hawking. Stephen was born in 1942 in Oxford - the British city, known for the whole world with one of the oldest universities. It is there later and our genius will learn. Tract for science was probably transferred to him by her inheritance from parents who worked at the medical center.

During training (when Stephen was no more than 20 years), he began to show serious health problems due to the development of lateral amyotrophic sclerosis. This disease causes a defeat of the central nervous system And leads to muscle atrophy, and subsequently can cause full paralysis. Unfortunately, the existing drugs only slow down the disease, but do not treat it. Hawking, contrary to attempts by doctors, slowly lost the ability to own his own body and now he is barely able to move with his finger right. Fortunately for Stephen, acquaintance with talented scientists has suffered fruit: thanks to the achievements of friends, Hoking can move and communicate, using an advanced wheelchair and speech synthesizer.

For many people, the wheelchair becomes a curse fully destroying the person and the desire to engage in love. However, Hawking clearly demonstrates to us that even a fully paralyzed person is able to earn an impressive amount, faster in the media headlines and build a successful relationship on the personal front. The main achievement of Stephen was his colossal contribution to modern physics and promotion of science in the masses. Serious health problems did not deprive Stephen Hawking of the sense of humor: he likes to conclude comic scientific betting and even appeared in the comedy TV series "Theory big bang", Fulfilling the role of yourself.

These amazing personalities on their example proved that in humans is boundless power. A person is able to survive in the harsh conditions. Will and perseverance helps to fight the disease and seek success. Science, Sports, Cinema, Music, Fashion World - Any areas of activity remain available under any circumstances. Do not curse fate for all adversity. Find a stimulus to victory and do not lower the hands. And, perhaps, one day your way to success will motivate others!

I do not know what they did in our childhood with us, and how did we all get that one of the important "chips" of education in the post-Soviet space was considered to overcome. Overcoming put next to adaptation, stress resistance, motivation and will. Although overcoming is rather the path to the development of motivation, will and stress resistance.

IN intelligent dictionaries "Overcome" is interpreted as "winning", "overpowering", "achieve", "overcome." That is, we are talking about a certain obstacle, often choking in ourselves, overcoming which we achieve our goals, and therefore become a step above in our incessant self-development.

Personal comfort, laziness, lack of motivation, anxiety and fear, doubts, physical or intellectual complexity of the task can be obstacles. Creditting with these obstacles, we become stronger, more flexible, adaptable. Or, on the contrary, strong, flexible, motivated man Easily overcome any obstacle? I'm interested in, and how much the element of overcoming should be present in the life of the child? What qualities does he lay and how to model such situations in life? And in general, what to consider overcoming?

Parents often appeal to me, whose children completely lost motivation for school training (training, music and so on). When we begin to disassemble the situation, it turns out how the option is that the child is in power of an exorbitant load for his age, which is purely physiologically, it is not able to achieve success in the framework in which he was set. And in the presentation of the parents of the child should overcome this situation, cope, survive. For example, by the friendly efforts of the child entered the prestigious gymnasium, out of such schools do not leave - only legs forward, you need to stand at any cost.

The second option - the child is forced to constantly interact with the person (teacher, coach), which causes him fear or expresses irritation in relation to the child, rejection. Naturally, motivation for learning here also seeks zero. Again, parents perceive it all as a reason for the child to overcome their internal discomfort and adapt to the current situation.

The third option - the child does not have the abilities to the type of activity that it is forced to deal with it for hardening the character, or he has pronounced learning difficulties. Whether it is a school or sports section, it is set in a situation of chronic failure. And again, we, irrepressible parents, remember overcoming: Come on, try, you can, you cope. Unfortunately, the stories of success does not work, and the motivation again seeks to the abyss.

And what does the parent question, take it? Create comfortable greenhouse conditions for him? But life will not be merciful, and he will simply do not survive in a rigid competition! Well, that while dad and mom is near, and what will happen then? No, better let it study now

But one of the signs of successful adaptation is the ability of a person to get out of the traumatic, meaningless or simply uncomfortable situation without explaining the reasons. Is it a creative conversion of reality, searching for its path, understanding of themselves and their capabilities and restrictions did not give birth to a million amazing discoveries? As often, we, accustomed to overcome the insurmountable, tolerate what is not necessary to tolerate, humble where it is deprived of meaning, we live in captivity of rigid installations, which is "necessary", "we must", "and who is now easy." But life and the truth may be easy. And what is the most interesting thing - for this you will not have to pay, as the supporters of the theory of overcoming difficulties think. Find your place in life - it means to overcome those attitudes who laid parents and school in you in childhood, convincing you that you never become, for example, a scientist or a singer or just a successful person, because you are not ... further listing that you have never learned to do.

Well, what then then the role of overcoming in the development of person? Is it really empty? Of course not. Only overcoming yourself every day, we feel the taste of expanding our capabilities, the taste for growth and development, we develop a feeling of strength, excitement, confidence, grow motivation. It is important to clearly understand what is overcoming for a child and how to make it work in a positive key.

Overcoming should be with a "plus" sign

This means that the child should not overcome the conditions of chronic stress, where there will be a reward for him ... and there will be no award. Behind the effort should always be joy, positive reinforcement, recognition, attention of parents and as a result of the growth of self-esteem and the development of motivation: the desire to repeat this pleasant experience - the bunch of "effort is joy" in the future. Examples of how it works - mass in the literature. As a child, I was very shy to speak in front of the class, but when I first read my essay at all, it was so liked by the teacher and children that since then this fading in front of the audience became the sweetest feeling, and for the sake of him to overcome myself even. In this story there was a limitation - my fear, overcoming - access to the public and positive reinforcement - recognition. As a result, my motivation for writing texts received a nutrient medium. And so it works in all areas. When you offer a child to overcome something, think, and what is waiting for the pass?

Overcoming should be forces a child

This adults are sometimes striking the power of the Spirit and the celebration of will, literally jumping above the head. However, apparently, these adults had a powerful experience of faith in herself in childhood. Apparently, there was a mother, father who did not doubt them for a second. And the child ... his personality is only growing and growing, its motives are fragile. When we put in front of him, we are guaranteed to upset his motivation to the ground. No, this does not mean that the child should only perform light tasks. But it is difficult that he needs to overcome must be fulfilled at least in theory. Example: Many gymnasts overcome pain during stretching on the twine. The wise coach will never stretch the children immediately in the first months of training. The wisest thing is sometimes waiting for a year and more, he waits until the child enters the beauty of this sport, will decide to identify himself with other athletes, wants to be the same as they. Then he begins to pull children. First, stretching becomes meaningful for the child, he sees the goal and rejoices that everything is closer to her. Secondly, pain from stretching tolerant, it can be reached. And gradually, children begin to stretch themselves, through pain, at home - here it is, motivation in action. The nearby coach begins to pull the children immediately, in the first days, the children are yelling and crying, parents tag about overcoming, the coach pulls pain and rudely. As a result, such children who escaped from sports are unlikely, in principle, they will want to endure at least the slightest physical discomfort.

Overcoming should be short-term

The child should see what his work leads, what effect he was able to achieve. Than younger babyEspecially close should be the goal and the joy of achieving it. Agree, the topic that you need to plow in a strong gymnasium five years to enter later prestigious university, it will not work. It is reasonable to look for more transparent and tangible goals, for example, participation in the Olympiads, protecting our own projects, recognition of the teacher.

Summing up, dear parents, I'm still convinced that finding a hostile team is not overcoming.

To endure the humiliation and rudeness of the teacher - not overcoming. To be in chronic fear is not overcoming, sleeping little and is bad - not overcoming. Experience a permanent sense of failure - not overcoming

This is all about how to kill the motivation for learning and self-development for many years forward, guaranteed. But I am tormented by the question, why still for many parents so scary to pick up a child from uncomfortable conditions for him? Why do they believe in the fact that the only way to grow a stable, motivated and strong child is to make him very bad?

15. Overcoming life difficulties

In the life of every person there are difficulties. Sometimes they are resolved by a person easily, and sometimes they bring it out of the gauge for a long time. There are difficulties in our lives that we cannot change and which arose objectively. It may be natural disasters, illness and more. And there are difficulties that are contrived, which may arise and exist only in our consciousness, but which can disturb as strong as the difficulties are real. In order to determine whether the difficulty is real or not, it is necessary to find the cause of its occurrence.

Founged may be difficult:

- That we can feel from the fact that there were no other expectations related to the behavior of other people. Or we may have strong experiences due to what it seems to us that someone deliberately delivers us trouble, because of a negative alien opinion about us. In fact, we can not know exactly what another person thinks and why it comes in one way or another, we can only build assumptions. We will experience because of these assumptions, if only allow themselves to spend their time and the strength on these no one who does not need experiences;

- Difficulties that have not yet arisen, did not take place, did not occur, the emergence of which is only assumed to be allowed by a person. However, he is experiencing and worries so much that it has already happened. Usually a person just has a habit of worrying, and no matter what about. Waiting for failure injured more than failure itself. Learn yourself to reflect on possible misfortunes. Much of what a person is afraid will never happen, but what is happening, can be easily eliminated, provided that the person will act calmly, confidently, getting rid of his fears, anxiety.

While the thing was not broken, you should not blame her. With difficulties should be struggling, to cope as they arrive;

- Difficulties, size, the scale is very exaggerated. They arise due to fears, anxiety, habits to worry on trifles, increased emotionality. A person himself inflates the problem, looks out more and more possible negative consequences, constantly coming up with various details of possible adverse options for the development of the situation.

In such cases, they say correctly: "Don't make an elephant fly";

- There are cases when a person who has some difficulty has a problem in one of the life spheres, transfers it to other life spheres. In this case, there may be a completely unreasonable feeling of global bad luck, deterioration of the situation of all cases. In such cases, you need to spare yourself, do not bring yourself to a painful state, the state of a breakdown. Allow yourself a small respite. Forgive yourself if you feel the guilt in front of yourself. Allow yourself to live and mistaken.

"A person never happens so happy, as he wants, and so unhappy, as he seems to him" (Larancyfort);

- A person can also drown in experiences about the difficulties that occurred with him in the past, but which, however, are perceived by them as what is happening at present. That is, a person stayed in the past, experiencing past difficulties. Learn to separate the past from the present. At the time of strong experiences, ask yourself: are you worried about what is happening now, or again they overtake the ghosts of the past?

Ghosts are unreal, they will disappear if you ask them about it if you are ready to say goodbye to them.

"Everything passes".

In order to cope with the filmed difficulties:

Method 1.

Make a list of your difficulties. Write all the difficulties experienced in recent times. Determine what difficulties are real, and which are contrived. Make a hierarchy of contrived difficulties. Determine the place of each difficulty in the context of your entire life. Is this a difficult test for you? Or can you still change your attitude towards it?

Talk to your difficulty.

Ask her what she is present in your life, which you must learn what to understand. Ask her to prompt you what you should do.

Take the decision that you will do next. Make a small plan for further action. What can you start doing now? What will you do tomorrow? Only by taking the decision to do something to change the situation, you will begin to really change it and feel soothing.

After reaching a list of contradious difficulties, having studied it, working on it, subsequently tear it and throw it away in the trash can or burn.

Method 2.

If you cannot stop the flow of disturbing thoughts relating to any difficulty:

- Imagine what awaits you in the worst case, in the case of the most unfavorable future development for you;

- Take it as an inevitability, accept this outcome of the case;

- What conclusions can be made, what can be beneficial with this state of affairs? How can I change the situation?

Method 3.

Start living with the present.

To acquire the ability to live hereby, you need to learn how to concentrate on what happens in your life here and now. After all, it exists really and objectively, not in thoughts, not in stories, not in photos, not in books, not in memory, but exists in reality. It exists only here and now, at the moment of time, exists at the distance of an elongated hand, it is painted into clear and clear colors, it is found in tangible forms, has real smells, has a real, existing taste in reality. These are the moments of life that will never be returned. It is necessary to appreciate these moments.

"Only the present - our" (Aristipp). There is only a real, because the past has already died, and the future has not yet been born.

The exercise

Inspect the items around you, stopping your attention on their shape, smell, color, roughness, or smoothness of their surface. Think about the meaning of these items in the life of a person at a given point in time and in this place. Choose more than other object that you are interested, read and describe it in more detail, attending in the present moment, here and now.

Method 4.

If your goal is concrete and very desirable, then you simply do not pay attention to many difficulties.

The more man prohibits himself thinking about anything, the hardest he thinks about it. Speak yourself that you will not think about your goal, never for no reason, and you will immediately notice that it is not so simple.

Method 5.

Often a person frighten the difficulties arising due to the lack of necessary information and experience. In this case, a person feels his inconsistency, its helplessness in any sphere. Determine what skills, knowledge, skills you miss and how you could get them. You can work out them yourself, you can sign up for courses, take individual sessions, study on the example of other people. The main thing is to decide learn the new one.

There are situations in life when suffering due to difficulties experienced is very strong, especially if these are real difficulties. At such moments, you can recall the prayer for non-vulnerable:

"God, give me calmness to come to terms with what I can't change, and courage to change what I can change, and wisdom to distinguish one of the other."

Throughout life, each of us can meet with obstacles that need to be overcome. But how to do it not to lose the human appearance? Classic literature did not pay attention to this problem. And the Writers of the nineteenth century, like Lev Nikolayevich Tolstoy, Fedor Mikhailovich Dostoevsky and many others, tried everyone in their own way to answer the question.


So, F.M. Dostoevsky in the novel "Crime and Punishment" shows us a poor young man Rodion Skolnikov who committed a terrible sin. He kills the old woman and the circumstances in the coincidence of her who is not a guilty sister. Murder is due to the fact that the hero of the Roman decides to test one theory for himself, according to which all people are divided into two discharges: Some - "right having" to send to murder or kill himself, and others, the lowest variety, - "Tary trembling" which are most.

Raskolnikov appreciates themselves high enough and therefore, picking up to those who have the right, takes the ax. It was killed, he killed malicious, according to him, and not the necessary old woman. This is also manifested by this line of Raskolnikov as courage. But after the crime for Rodion, the "black" band of life comes - punishment. Who is to blame for what happened? How to live with such a cargo? Napoleon, when he sent his warriors to death, did he think about the morality of his act? Such thoughts visit Raskolnikov during the period of mental torments and vital difficulties. In this difficult moment, he meets with Sonya Marmaladeova, who herself is experiencing not better than the best times. She is forced to go "along the yellow ticket" to trade with her body to save their family from hunger. This girl not only did not harm himself, but also helped the Raskolnikov understand that the reason for adversity should be sought, first of all, in himself. To do this, it is necessary to realize that you are not right, go and repent in the deed. This will be the first step towards finding yourself, man.

Another example of disclosing the problem of overcoming the vital difficulties and the preservation of a person can serve the Roman-Epopea L.N. Tolstoy "War and Peace". Effective in this regard is the family of growth. The writer tells throughout the narrative that Count Rostov - good man And a family man, but a bad owner. His property of Mitenka (as it is affectionately called all Rostov), \u200b\u200bmanaging estates, - a switter and fraudster. The wealth of growth melts in the eyes. And Nikolai Rostov, designed by Countess from the army, is also unable to help. Despite the staggering position, the Rostov is not denied at home. They continue to live all (governors, nannies, teachers and others), who believed that the growth of them would live better than anywhere.

A person can rejoice in vital difficulties when these difficulties and failures reveal to him new opportunities, give him the opportunity to check out its own strength, the opportunity to learn, acquiring new experience.

From the book Carol Duc "Flexible Consciousness":

When I was a young novice scientist, an event that has changed the whole of my life occurred.

I passionately wanted to figure out how people cope with their failures. And I began to study it, watching how junior schoolchildren Decide difficult tasks. So, I invited kids one by one in a separate room, I asked to get comfortable and, when they relax, gave them to solve a series of puzzles. The first tasks were quite simple, but then they became more difficult and more difficult. And while schoolchildren are puffers and sweated, I watched their actions and reaction. I assumed that the children would behave in different ways, trying to cope with the difficulties, but saw something completely unexpected.

Faced with the tasks more serious, one ten-year-old boy pushed the chair closer to the table, rubbed his hand, licks and stated: "I love difficult tasks!" Another boy, pretty puzzled over a puzzle, raised his satisfied face and signed Uvezko: "You know, I hoped for it - what will be informative!"

"What is it with them?" - I could not understand. I did not occur to me that the failures could like someone. Do these children, aliens? Or do they know something that? Soon I understood: these children know that human abilities, such as intelligent skills, can be cleaned by attaching efforts. And this is what they did - became smarter. There was no failure of them by no means discouraged - it did not even mind that they would suffer. They thought they were just learn.

Such a positive, or rather a constructive attitude towards difficulties in life is characteristic primarily for people at the position of the author and with.

He lived in the light of the young man, he liked all sorts of ancient trinkets, and he wandered over the light in search of unusual things that found in the bench of the alarms. Especially he was occupied by tea cups, for they, as it seemed to him, can tell a lot of interesting things.

Now, in a distant unfamiliar country, he recreed at an antique shop where he found an old tea cup. The young man took a find in his hands and began to consider it, as suddenly a cup spoke to him:

"My dear wanderer, I was not always a cup. There was a time when senselessness was the only entertainment. I was just a piece of red clay. Thousands of years I lay in the ground. In front of me, the centuries rushed, people fought and concluded the world, born and died civilization.

Suddenly my master came. He raised me, taken into the workshop, threw on the wooden table and began to mive and roll me up while I did not scream: "Pretty! Leave me alone! It was very painful, but he only smiled and, shocked his head, said: - Still time.

Then he threw me to the pottery circle, and the world spinned in front of me so fast that was merged into a solid fog. "What are you doing ..." I whispered. - I feel bad, stop this nightmare. But the master just understoodly sighed and said quietly: "It's not time," continuing to twist the circle and give me a form. "

And then he gently put me in the oven. I did not know that there is such heat in the world. I screamed and tried to open a furnace door. - It is hotter here than in hell! - I screamed - I burned the dormant! Release me rather! But through the window in the stove, I saw how the master looked at me, and his lips were repeated: "No time."

And so, when it seemed to me that my last minute comes, the door opened. The master gently took me out of the furnace and put on the shelf, where I sighed freely. How well, when you finally left alone. But it was not the end.

As soon as I came to mind, the master took me from the shelves, carefully looked and shook off the dust. He was going to paint me and covered with varnish. His poisonous evaporation enveloped me, and I was already to lose consciousness: "Please understand me!" Don't you feel sorry for me? Please leave me alone, please do not! - I wanted. But the master only shook his head and said, as usual: - Not yet time.

Having finished applying the lacquer, he again put me in the oven, this time it was much hotter there than the first time. I understood immediately - this is my death. I begged him, I asked, threatened, screamed. At the end, I cried, but there was no tears, even fiery. I realized that I live the last moment of my life, there was no longer forces. As suddenly, in the last second, already falling into the black abyss of nonsense, I felt the hands of the master take me and pull out of the oven.

He again put me on the shelf, where I cooled and wait. An hour later, the master returned, went to me and put the mirror in front of me. "Look at yourself," he said. What I saw in the mirror was so wonderful that I exclaimed: - This is not me! It could not be me ... It was so beautiful, incredibly beautiful!

Then I heard full compassion words of the Master: - That's what you should have become. When I rolled you, I needed to drive the air, otherwise you would quickly split. Poisonous evaporation varnish were unbearable for you, but without this your life would remain as gray as it was before. The furnace was for you the greatest test, but she strengthened you. Now you have turned into a wonderful cup of clay. Now you appeared in the new capacity. "
