The "Olympic spirit" is the bond that maintains peace and unites mankind; in the "country" of sports, the improvement of each individual is to better promote the overall harmony and development; a person who participates in it is both national and national. It is also of the world. The collision and combination of "patriotism" and "cosmopolitanism" make the "Olympic spirit" a condensed ideal of the "universal world". At the same time, the "Olympic spirit" is also the "social teacher" who inherits the "soul of warriors": it inherits the wisdom of the ancient Greeks and teaches us to be beautiful with a healthy body and strong vitality; it has taken over the bravery of the ancient Romans. Our mentality determines success or failure, and our pursuit is endless. We must be proud of "unwilling to be mediocre", "excellence" and "victory"; it maintains the "Fair Play" (fair competition) of medieval knights, allowing us to deeply experience integrity and integrity And never give up is the supreme glory of man. In modern times, what it teaches us, in Coubertin’s own words: “There is only one way to reach the culmination, that is training and hard work”, “In the Olympics, the most important thing is not victory, but participation.” "In life, the most important thing is not triumph, but struggle."
