Diligence is only perseverance. Although a good horse is easy to walk, it is always tired and stops in the middle. It is a truth to learn a skill. If you go in, you will succeed one day. If you are interested in learning, once you get angry, you will be lazy day and night for dozens of days.
Some people plant trees, which are lush and full of fruits, while others can't compare with them. Or when asked about their skills, they said, "I don't have other intelligence, but I know the physical properties, correctly distinguish the soil and cultivate it properly." Irrigation depends on time. Ordinary people watch day and night, and I naturally listen. I don't care, I am diligent. "
There was a man in the Song Dynasty who sympathized with his seedlings, but he replied naturally: "I am sick today, and I will help them grow." His son is looking forward to it, Miao is dying.
Look at these two things and you will know how to learn. If you make up your mind to be firm and expert, you will not make progress in a day, and you will be proud of your achievements. It is not a matter of time to walk a hundred miles and stop at 90 miles. Asking for help will lead to success, and practitioners will think of it.
There is no other way to be diligent, but to persist. Although a good horse is good at running, it will give up halfway when its physical strength is exhausted. A bad horse walked slowly and continuously, but it arrived first. Therefore, if you want to do something and learn a skill, you will succeed one day. The key is to make good use of your own energy. Now some people have the ambition to study and have made great efforts to study. A sense of slackness gradually emerged, and finally abandoned his studies. Confucius said, "If you are impatient, you will accomplish nothing." Mencius said, "Those who enter too quickly will retreat quickly." This is a fact.
There is a tree planter with dense branches and leaves and lush fruits, and others can't catch up with him. Someone asked him about his experience in planting trees, and he said, "I don't have any clever methods, that is, to identify physical properties, determine suitable soil, regularly cultivate soil and fertilize it, and timely irrigate and water it." When ordinary people first plant saplings, they always look at them carefully in the morning and evening, but I let nature take its course, as if no one else cared. Fruit trees have been planted for a long time.
In the state of Song, a man who was worried about the slow growth of seedlings pulled up the seedlings one by one, came home tired and said to his family, "I'm exhausted today. I helped the seedlings grow taller. " His son hurried to the field to look, but the seedling died.
If you look at these two things, you will know the truth of learning and studying knowledge. If you are determined and single-minded, you may not have only one day's harvest and progress. You brag about your merits and achievements. If you take a hundred miles as your destination, you will stop at ninety miles. You can't say that you have arrived. Your career pursues efficiency, and your efforts pay attention to practical results. Scholars should think deeply.
