He never took detours or shortcuts in his life. He always does things in the most clumsy and down-to-earth way. Being a man pays attention to "sincerity". People come with fakes, and I am sincere. This is the secret of his success.
There are too many smart people in today's society, and most people advocate being smart, labor-saving, fast and efficient. In my opinion, what is lacking most is not cleverness, but stupidity.
"The world is the best, and you can win the world." Clumsy is better than clever. You can rely on it because you are all thumbs.
Zeng Guofan took seven scholar exams, but both Juren and Jinshi did well because he had done enough "stupid kung fu" and laid a solid foundation.
Clumsy people are often more open-minded and diligent than others; Clumsy people have experienced many setbacks and are particularly resistant to pressure; Clumsy people don't know how to play tricks when they encounter problems, but only know how to drill hard.
Admitting that you are not clever is also a kind of cleverness. What's wrong with being a clumsy person?
