Where does the skill of riding a horse and driving a horse ten times come from?

Qi Ji can’t take ten steps in one leap. The strength of a horse riding a horse ten times is not giving up.

"Xunzi"

Title of the poem "Ten Horses"

Pronunciation n? mǎ sh? ji?

The next sentence is? Gong is Not giving up? (According to Wang Xianqian’s textual research, a sentence was omitted after "The horse is driving ten times". It may be that "it is also the same?")

Interpretation: The horse is a day's journey. Although the horse is slow, it works tirelessly and walks ten miles. It can also be reached by day. It is a metaphor that people with low intelligence can catch up with people with high qualifications as long as they study hard.

Synonyms: Horses and horses

Grammar: subject-predicate form; used as predicate and object; with complimentary meaning

From Xun Kuang's "Encouragement to Learning"

It means that a thousand-mile horse cannot jump ten steps with one jump, and a bad horse can reach a thousand miles by walking for ten days. Its success lies in not stopping.

If you regulate your qi and maintain your health, you will be like Peng Zu; if you cultivate yourself and make a name for yourself, you will be worthy of Yao and Shun.
