Establish the correct motivation for joining the party (1) What is the motivation for joining the party. Let’s first talk about what motivation is. Motivation is the thought that drives a person to perform a certain behavior. (Crime has criminal motives, and the same applies to joining the party.) Everyone knows that simply speaking, the motivation for joining the party is why you join the party organization. Conceptually speaking, the motivation for joining the party is the internal reason for a person to join the party and the spiritual force that drives people to strive to join the party. People's actions are governed by certain thoughts. People who ask to join the party always have certain reasons and expected purposes (this purpose is the motivation for joining the party). People who ask to join the party have the same desire, that is, to join the party organization, but those who want to join the party The reason and intended purpose are different. Every comrade here who wants to join the Party has different motivations for joining the Party. Here we can divide the motivation for joining the party into two aspects. On the one hand, there are wrong motives for joining the party. On the other hand, it is the correct motivation for joining the party. There are many wrong motives for joining the Party. Here are a few typical ones. You can compare yourself to find out whether your motives for joining the Party are correct and whether there are any improper elements in your motives for joining the Party. 1. Some comrades think that it is glorious to be a party member. Joining the party will bring glory to you and your family, and you will look good in front of relatives and friends; (Vanity) 2. Some see some comrades around them applying and follow the crowd and ask to join the party; (Follow the crowd) Psychologically, such people think: If you apply, I will also apply, without seriously considering why you join the party and what you will do after joining the party.) 3. Some people think that the current policies are good and they have become rich, so they ask to join the party in order to repay the party's kindness; (Mainly farmers) 4. Some people believe that party votes are a kind of political capital, and they can find a political backer by joining the party. (Agency, enterprise) 5. Some people think that if they join the party, they will be easily reused, promoted quickly, or they can find a good job after graduating from university. (Agency, enterprise, school) 6. There are still a very small number of people who want to join the party. Come inside the party to transform our party. The above motivations for joining the party are extremely wrong. The above-mentioned wrong motives are very typical, very accurate, and close to people's thoughts. The vast majority of us here are advanced elements and pioneers in work, thought, and study. However, the motivations of individual comrades to join the party may have wrong elements. This requires us to constantly overcome wrong motives. Regarding the causes of these wrong motives for joining the party, And how to overcome it will be analyzed and explained in detail for a while. The correct motivation for joining the party is to join the party in order to serve the people wholeheartedly and to realize communism. Because it is consistent with the party's nature, purpose, goal of struggle and party membership conditions. Other motives for joining the party are contrary to this and are incorrect or even extremely wrong. You may say that the correct motivation for joining the party you mentioned is official and slogan-like, which is not realistic. I believe that joining the party in order to serve the people wholeheartedly and to realize communism is not empty. It is a theoretical sublimation of our usual hard work, study, and ideological progress. To take a step back, aren’t we serving the people every day when we work hard (taxation, government agencies)? Isn’t every tax you collect contributing to the development process from socialism to communism? Only by correcting the motivation for joining the party can we meet the conditions for joining the party stipulated in the party constitution; after joining the party, we can play the role that a party member should have, thereby ensuring the party's advanced nature and purity and enhancing the party's combat effectiveness. On the contrary, if those with impure motives are allowed to enter the party, especially those who attempt to use the title of party member to gain benefits, it will be difficult to ensure the party's advanced nature and purity, and may even cause serious losses to the party. Therefore, the party organization regards correcting the motivations for joining the party as the most basic requirement for comrades who apply to join the party, and regards examining the motivations of the comrades who are required to join the party and helping them correct their motivations for joining the party as an important link and measure to ensure the quality of new party members. To develop new party members, we can only recruit those who have corrected their motives for joining the party, have performed well in reform, opening up, and modernization, and truly meet the conditions for party membership; those with impure motives must not be absorbed into the party. (2) For comrades who request to join the party, it is very important to correct their motivations for joining the party. First of all, correct motivation is the spiritual power for correct action. (This sentence can be understood like this. A person's thoughts determine his actions. Thoughts are the driving force of action. Wrong thoughts will inevitably lead to wrong actions. Only by establishing the correct motivation for joining the party can we remain unwavering in the face of work, study, and setbacks. Move toward the set goal.) Only by establishing the correct motivation for joining the party can we have lasting motivation, study Marxist theory assiduously, implement the party's basic line more consciously, and combine loyalty to the cause of communism with execution. Only by unifying the party's basic line and actively making contributions in reform, opening up, and modernization (correctly - study seriously; wrongly - learn by coping); only then can we demand ourselves more strictly and strive to set ourselves in all aspects of daily work and life. Correct the relationship between the interests of the party and the people and personal interests, and gradually cultivate and establish an outlook on life that is willing to "suffer losses", is not afraid of "bearing hardships", and selflessly contributes to the people (correct - not afraid of suffering losses and hardships; wrong - pick up the easy and avoid the heavy) ); Only then can we correctly deal with some specific problems encountered in the process of seeking to join the party. When the comrades around you join the party before you, you will not be frustrated and impatient, but redouble your efforts; when you have to accept the test for a long time, you will not give up on yourself and blame others, but find your shortcomings and catch up; when you ask for the action of joining the party Even when they are not correctly understood or misunderstood, they can be treated correctly; (for example) when they encounter difficulties and setbacks in work and life, they will not waver in their beliefs and always move towards the set goals.

(Correct - treat setbacks correctly; Wrong - discouraged and withdrawn) Secondly, comrades who are required to join the party must establish the correct motivation for joining the party in order to withstand the test of the party organization. The comparison shows that this test has more important practical significance in the new era. Because in the revolutionary era, participating in the revolution and joining the party organization meant taking on arduous and dangerous work, and even sacrificing one's own life. Under such conditions, even if individual speculators sneak into the party's ranks, the cruel environment will act as a wave of sand washing away the sand, and some unsteady elements will easily be eliminated. After the party came to power across the country, the situation changed greatly. On the one hand, the ruling position can enable the party to better adhere to the purpose of serving the people, attract and unite around itself thousands of people of vision who are interested in transforming society, revitalizing the nation, and benefiting the people, and constantly unite around it The outstanding elements among them are absorbed into the party, and the Communist Party of China strives to realize the party's historical mission. On the other hand, because the Party is in power, some people with unhealthy ideologies have a speculative mentality and believe that joining the Party is not only not dangerous, but can also reap personal benefits; some even regard joining the Party as a political step to pursue fame and fortune. Therefore, in order to maintain the purity of the party, party organizations must strictly review and investigate to discover which comrades have correct motives for joining the party and which comrades have improper motives for joining the party. Only those who have correct motives for joining the party and meet the conditions for party membership can be admitted to the party. This tells us that if comrades who apply to join the party want to realize their desire to join the party, they must honestly establish the correct motivation for joining the party, withstand the inspection of the party organization, and join the party organization through the correct channels. They cannot join the party with improper motives. Motives, using improper means to sneak into the party organization. First, study Marxist theory seriously and strive to establish the correct motivation for joining the party. 1. Whether a person's motivation for joining the party is correct is often directly related to whether his understanding of the communist cause and the proletarian party is correct and profound. Marxist theory, especially Marxist party building theory, scientifically expounds the above-mentioned issues. Only by seriously studying these theories can we have a more obvious and profound understanding of the above-mentioned issues. 2. Facts have also proved that only when a person has a clear and profound understanding of the communist cause and the Communist Party can his motivation for joining the party be correct. In recent years, many activists who have applied to join the party have strengthened their study of the party constitution, including the study of the party's ideals and purposes, the party's program and the basic line for the primary stage of socialism, Marxism-Leninism, Mao Zedong Thought, Deng Xiaoping Theory and " Study the important thinking of "Three Represents" and study the obligations and rights of party members. Through study, the ideological and political awareness of the party activists can be further improved, which plays a positive role in establishing the correct motivation for joining the party. For example, some farmers who became party activists began to become rich after implementing the party's policies to enrich the people. At first, they asked to join the party with the idea of ??repaying their gratitude to the party. Through study, they gradually understood that not only should they be rich, but they should also help the people around them to get rich together. They understood that their current efforts are to realize communism in the future. We must work hard to build a new socialist countryside. This change is what we often call raising simple and perceptual understanding to a conscious and rational level. This is the ideological basis for establishing the correct motivation for joining the party. Second, constantly correct the motivation for joining the party through practice. Marxist epistemology tells us that people's correct understanding can only be obtained through the process of practice-understanding-re practice-reunderstanding, and the cycle continues. The most important thing here is practice. It is not enough for comrades who request to join the party to have the urgency to join the party. They must also show it in action and constantly use personal experience to deepen their understanding of the party in practice, thereby further correcting their motivations for joining the party. For example, by making active contributions in the socialist modernization drive, we can embody the purpose of serving the people wholeheartedly; by taking practical actions to endure hardship first and enjoy the last, we can realize the noble sentiment of sacrificing everything for communism; through learning The advanced deeds of outstanding party members can enhance their feelings towards the party, inspire their own actions, etc. In a word, it is to deepen the understanding of the party and the cause of communism and strengthen the correct motivation for joining the party through living and real time activities that devote oneself to the great cause of building socialism with Chinese characteristics. (For example, taxation) Third, use the correct motivation to join the party to overcome the incorrect motivation to join the party. Human thought activities are relatively complex. In the process of striving to join the party, a person's motivation for joining the party often has both correct elements and some incorrect elements. It's just that for some comrades, the correct components of their motivations for joining the party are primary, and the incorrect components are secondary; while for some comrades, the opposite is true. This requires comrades who apply to join the party to actively approach the party organization, strive for the party organization's help, and through accepting the party's education, practical training and self-transformation, carry forward positive factors, overcome negative factors, and correct incorrect motives. As mentioned earlier, incorrect or incomplete motivations for joining the party manifest themselves in various ways. Here we will focus on analyzing three of them: The first is to feel that it is glorious to be a party member and request to join the party. Being a party member is indeed glorious, but we must see that the reason why the title of Communist Party members is glorious lies in their purpose of serving the people wholeheartedly and their ability to sacrifice everything personally for the interests of the country and the people. In other words, the glory of Communist Party members is closely linked to responsibility and dedication.

If a person asks to join the party just for glory and good looks, and is not prepared to do hard work for the cause of communism, that is incompatible with the glorious title of a Communist Party member. The second is to see an application for party membership and not seriously think about why you want to join the party. This is a blind motivation to join the party. It should be affirmed that these comrades' application to join the party is also an expression of their desire for progress. However, a person who wants to join the party should have a solid ideological foundation, be clear about the historical responsibilities he shoulders, understand the principle of complete liberation of the working class, and be determined to contribute everything he has to the realization of the cause of communism. If you do not have such an ideological foundation and join the party just for the sake of joining the party, even if you join the party, you will be shaken by the storm. Such people do not have the qualifications to join the party. The third type is to ask to join the party in order to gain certain benefits from the party. Such motivation for joining the party is contrary to the purpose of the party. Under the conditions of the party's governance, some comrades have assumed leadership positions after joining the party and have been reused and promoted by the party and the people. However, this kind of reuse and promotion only means that party members must shoulder greater responsibilities and serve the people better. It does not mean that party members can seek personal gain if they hold a certain position or have certain rights. . Any behavior that uses power for personal gain is not allowed by the party and the people. Our party has always advocated "building the party for the public good and governing for the people." This is the fundamental principle that our party cannot shake. Therefore, comrades who have the idea of ????gaining benefits from the party should consciously overcome their selfish thoughts, truly establish a communist world outlook and outlook on life, work hard for the party and the people wholeheartedly, and use practical actions to correct their motivations for joining the party. . Comrades who request to join the party should also understand that correcting the motivation for joining the party is not a temporary issue before joining the party, but a lifelong matter. Although some people have joined the party organizationally, the problem of correcting their motivations for joining the party has not been completely solved; some people have correct motivations for joining the party, but later they relaxed their political studies and ideological transformation, and the revolutionary will system declined or even degenerated. Because these comrades have not established or failed to maintain the correct motivation for joining the party, they will still make mistakes even if they join the party in the organization and encounter the appropriate climate. As Comrade Mao Zedong said: "There are many party members who have joined the party in the organization, but have not fully joined the party ideologically, or even not at all. Such people who have not fully joined the party ideologically still have a lot of filth from the exploiting class in their minds. They have no idea what proletarian ideology is, what communism is, and what the party is. "Every comrade who wants to join the party should take this as a lesson. Regardless of whether he has joined the party in the organization, he should first do it first. Really join the party ideologically; and you must pay long-term attention to check your motives for becoming a party member and overcome those incorrect ideas. You must not work hard before joining the party and relax half after joining the party.
