Slowly, I gradually have a new understanding of this sentence. The so-called stupid bird flies first does not mean that you start first when you are stupid, but that when you are not familiar with a certain industry or skill, you will work harder, and your efforts will naturally yield results.
At least practice makes perfect. The origin of this idiom is that the oil seller can fill the oil bottle through a hole in the middle of the copper coin. When everyone praised him, he said, "Nothing else, just a good hand." Skills will naturally be improved through practice. The more time you practice, the greater your progress, as is the case with everything in the world.
We are familiar with Edison's famous saying, "Genius is one percent inspiration and ninety-nine percent perspiration." Once we thought that even a great inventor like Edison admitted that hard work was more important than talent, but recently more and more people found the last sentence of this sentence, "But that one percent of inspiration is the most important thing, even more important than that 99 percent of sweat." Maybe at this time, you think it doesn't matter why the stupid bird flies first. I understand Edison's famous saying that inspiration and sweat complement each other. You can't just be inspired and not work hard. Inspiration is the direction, sweat is the journey. With a direction, you will eventually reach your destination.
When we were children, we all heard the story of the race between the tortoise and the hare. The little white rabbit lost to the tortoise because of his pride and nap. This story not only tells us not to take a nap in the middle of the game, but also tells us that if you walk slowly, you have to keep walking. This can't guarantee that you will win, but it can guarantee that you will catch up with your opponent when he dozes off.
The story of demosthenes, an ancient Greek orator, practicing his speech hard has always been an example to inspire future generations to forge ahead. A great orator is indispensable in articles involving hard work and success. You see, hard work must be useful. This is not what I said. This is the truth since ancient times. Of course, we also know that not all efforts can be successful. If you want to succeed, you must pay attention to the goal and methodology!
Choose the right target. Many people choose a road to the dark, and finally hit the south wall before turning back, wasting time not saying anything, and even reaching a conclusion: efforts are useless. In fact, it's not that your efforts are useless, but that you are running in the wrong direction. You're going in the wrong direction, even if you try hard, you won't get to the right destination. Therefore, no matter what we want to do, we need to set a reasonable and correct goal first.
Choose a reasonable method after defining the goal. Reasonable methods can avoid detours, turn all efforts into useful work and maximize the efficiency of efforts. Shortcuts are not for not working hard, but for better efforts.
With goals and methods, you only need to do one thing, that is, redouble your efforts, which is called getting twice the result with half the effort. As long as the direction and method are combined, we can reach the other side of victory. For example, if you want to learn a new skill, knowing how to use it is your goal, and choosing books or training methods is the way to choose your efforts. With goals and methods, success is not far away.
Combine the goal and methodology organically and reasonably, open up a new journey for stupid birds to fly first, and let their efforts always bear fruit.
