Features: This book is a collection of insights and summaries by Professor Si Youhe, an early and highly productive researcher of the Young Student Program at the University of Science and Technology of China, based on long-term tracking, observation, and research on a group of outstanding primary and secondary school students (mainly young university students of USTC). The book reveals that outstanding students are not mysterious—they are simply ordinary students who love learning, work hard, are positive, and receive good family and school education! Using numerous real-life examples, the book demonstrates that these outstanding students are not born "geniuses" but rather small warriors with ambitious goals who overcome one challenge after another on their path forward through their own perseverance and indomitable spirit. This book is not written to celebrate their magic or mystery, but to honor their self-discipline, diligence, and hard work. For today's who lack motivation to learn, this is the best inspirational book for self-education: When they see ordinary peers overcoming various hardships to achieve outstanding results, they are deeply moved by an inner conviction: "If they can do it, I can too," thereby changing their attitude towards learning. This book is a comprehensive upgrade of "The Mysteries of Young University Students," "Communications of the Young Student Program," and "Family Education of Talented Individuals." Some chapters of the book were included in the "1984 National Red Scarf Reading, Writing, and Medal Activity," benefiting a large number of primary and secondary school students.
