Youth is the most active and dynamic force in the whole social force, the hope of the country lies in youth, and the future of the nation lies in youth. At the celebration of the centenary of the founding of the Communist Youth League of China, General Secretary of the Supreme Leader pointed out that the Communist Youth League should "unite and lead the youth of its members to grow into good young people with ideals, courage to take responsibility, endurance and willingness to struggle". This is not only the ardent expectation of the party and the country for the future development of the vast number of young people, but also the unshakable common goal of young people in the new era in the process of realizing the great rejuvenation of the Chinese nation.
Ideal is the spiritual pillar of good youth in the new era.Ideals and beliefs are the foundation of spirit and the source of strength. Only by establishing lofty ideals and strengthening their ideals and beliefs can young people in the new era move forward bravely in the right direction on the road of youth. Ideals are divided into personal ideals and common ideals. Every youth is an independent individual, and it is common that there are differences in personal ideals such as career choice and life goals. At the same time, they are in the social reality relationship, which requires that personal ideals be closely linked with the common ideals of the country and the nation and make due contributions to the cause of the party and the country. First, we must strengthen our Marxist faith. Marxism is a powerful ideological weapon to guide China’s continuous success. Young people in the new era should learn Marxist theory, master Marxist research methods and consciously use Marxism to guide practice. The second is to strengthen the lofty ideal of communism. Realizing communism is the highest ideal and ultimate goal of communist party people, and it is a long development process, which needs the relay of generations of young people. Third, we should strengthen Socialism with Chinese characteristics’s common ideal, build a socialist modern country on the basis of building a well-off society in an all-round way, and believe that the Chinese dream of the great rejuvenation of the Chinese nation will be realized. Young people’s lofty ideals and firm beliefs are the invincible driving force for a country and a nation. In the course of a hundred years, the majority of youth league members and party member can "hide their eyes from the clouds" and maintain their resilience of "being tough after thousands of blows". In the final analysis, it lies in the strong support of ideals and beliefs. Nothing can be achieved in the world without a will.Young people in the new era should be ambitious, build a solid foundation of ideals and beliefs, integrate their personal "ego" into the "ego" of the motherland, unite their powerful forces with firm ideals, and strive to open up a new journey of national rejuvenation.
Dare to take responsibility is the historical mission of good young people in the new era.A generation has a long March, and a generation has the responsibility of a generation. During the period of the new-democratic revolution, young people started their ideological awakening and fought for national independence and people’s liberation without hesitation; During the period of socialist revolution and construction, young people actively participated in social changes and did not hesitate to devote themselves to the great cause of building the motherland; In the new period of reform, opening up and socialist modernization, young people dare to venture and do things, and they are desperate to run on the wave of innovation and reform; Young people in the new era in Socialism with Chinese characteristics consciously shoulder the historical responsibility and strive to realize the Chinese dream of the great rejuvenation of the Chinese nation. History and the times have entrusted the vast number of young people with different responsibilities and missions. Based on the new era and new journey, the goal and direction of China youth can be summed up in one point, that is, unswervingly listening to and following the Party, and striving to grow into a new person of the times who can shoulder the heavy responsibility of national rejuvenation. Young people in the new era should not only dare to take responsibility, but also be able to take responsibility. On the one hand, they should practice excellent skills, arm their minds with rich theories, exercise their abilities in practice and demonstrate their solid talents. On the other hand, we should maintain a healthy body, which is the capital of the revolution. We should civilize its spirit and savage its body, so as to provide continuous strength for realizing great dreams. Today’s world is in a great change that has never happened in a hundred years, and China is also in a critical period to realize the great rejuvenation of the Chinese nation. As the main force of China’s development, young people are faced with the mission of the times that "the sky will drop to the people of Sri Lanka". They are in the forefront of the fight against the epidemic, setting a new historical record in the Winter Olympics, showing China’s charm on the world stage and vividly interpreting "Please rest assured that the party and the country have me. China’s young people live in prosperous times and shoulder heavy responsibilities. Only when they are ambitious, wise, talented and responsible can they live up to their youth, the times and the people.
Being able to bear hardships is the tough character of good young people in the new era.Difficulties and hardships, jade is successful. Today’s beautiful life is the result of countless ancestors’ arduous and long-term struggles. During the 25,000-mile long March, they climbed snow-capped mountains and crossed grasslands. During the 14-year Anti-Japanese War, they risked their lives and were not afraid of strong enemies. In the early days of the founding of New China, they kept their feet on the ground and worked hard … … Gradually formed the spirit of China, such as the spirit of the Long March, the spirit of Hongqiqu, the spirit of "two bombs and one satellite" and the spirit of manned space flight. Contemporary young people should deeply understand and inherit the fine traditions and precious qualities of being able to endure hardships, because hardships can temper a person’s will. Compared with the past, young people in the new era have superior material conditions and living environment, which is an important period of life development. If they choose to suffer, they choose to gain. First of all, to be able to suffer from learning, we should not passively accept book knowledge, but be good at independent innovation learning, enrich theoretical knowledge, enhance core literacy, and bravely climb scientific peaks. Secondly, we should be able to suffer from practice, go to places where countries need it, such as the grass-roots front line, measure the land of the motherland with our feet, discover the spirit of China with our eyes, listen to people’s voices with our ears, and feel the pulse of the times with our hearts. Finally, we should learn to "ask for it". Being content with the status quo is the greatest danger in life. Young people should show the courage to start all over again and consciously take "suffering" as a lofty value pursuit. "The sword front comes from sharpening, and the plum blossom fragrance comes from bitter cold."Dare to endure hardship, be willing to endure hardship and be good at it are compulsory courses for young people to grow up, and also necessary ways to hone their will and cultivate their feelings in national rejuvenation.
Willing to struggle is the action of good young people in the new era.Struggle has always been the action guide of the Chinese nation and the youth in China. From "we must make comrades continue to struggle hard" to "we must make up our minds to struggle for a long time", and then to "happiness comes from struggle" and "struggle itself is a kind of happiness", the Chinese nation has ushered in a great leap from standing up, becoming rich and becoming strong. The new era provides a broad practical stage for helping young people struggle, and the first youth development plan in the history of New China has been issued, and a colorful platform for voluntary service and innovative practice has been built, so that every young person can enjoy the opportunity to shine in life. Struggle is the most beautiful background of youth, and action is the most effective tempering of youth. We should follow the struggle direction of the party and the country with practical actions, integrate the youth struggle into the cause of the party and the people, and March courageously toward the Chinese dream of realizing the goal of the second century and realizing the great rejuvenation of the Chinese nation. We should strive for dedication in ordinary posts, strive to take root at the grassroots level, serve the people, do every job in a down-to-earth manner, create extraordinary things in the ordinary, and create brilliance in the struggle. We should always cherish the spirit of striving for self-improvement, and shape the great spirit of struggle in the new era on the road of Do not forget your initiative mind’s vigorous youth. Now, youth is used to struggle; In the future, youth will be used for memories. In the new era, young people in China are the vanguard forces to realize the great rejuvenation of the Chinese nation. We should use our youthful self to create a youthful China and a youthful nation.
In the new era, young people in China are in the best period of the development of the Chinese nation. We should cherish the present, stir up the surging spring tide of national rejuvenation with the energy and creativity of youth, and strive for a better China with the wisdom and sweat of youth!
