A long-standing proverb
"Perseverance, dead wood cannot be carved; As you can imagine, persistence is the blazing fire of chasing a long-cherished wish. Persistence is to get rid of bondage, swim happily in the vast sky and show the wings of heroes. Persistence is the source of strength to open your heart and gallop freely on the boundless land. Persistence is the dawn of the sacred dawn.

However, in today's society, there is a sharp contrast between those who persevere and abandon the original chaos and those who stick to their beliefs. What is the connection between the two? What is the ending of the two?

"Perseverance, rotten wood can't be carved." In Xunzi's article "Encouraging Learning", Xunzi wrote: If you can't persist in carving, even rotten wood will not break. Metaphor is perseverance, from beginning to end. However, throughout the ages, people who violate this truth and run counter to this truth will not have a good end. Will eventually fall into the abyss of confusion, interpretation of the lonely tragedy of eventful years. In ancient times, during the wuyue War in the Spring and Autumn Period and the Warring States Period, Fu Cha, King of Wu, set up a lofty vision and cared about the country from the beginning. In order to pursue his long-cherished wish, he worked hard to promote the country's development and progress, so that the country reached its peak, ushered in a prosperous blue sky and spread the spring fragrance of the earth. Results After World War I in wuyue, Fu Cha, the king of Wu, defeated Gou Jian, the king of Yue, through a series of policy reforms implemented by Fu Cha. However, Fu Cha, the king of Wu, was content with the status quo. He did not continue and carry forward the great achievements of the past rectification movement. Instead, he gave up halfway, did not devote his energy to internal affairs, stood still, indulged in wine and beauty, and did not take any measures to govern internal affairs, which led to the great decline of Wu's national strength and eventually fell into the abyss of chaos. On the other hand, Gou Jian, the King of Yue released from Hulao Mountain, made unremitting efforts to make the country that was about to fall in the past glow with the dawn of life and spread the spring fragrance of peace. In the end, Gou Jian defeated Fu Cha, the king of Wu, in a reverse way. Throughout the life of Fu Cha, the king of Wu, the development trend of setting up a lofty and persistent vision degenerated into later abandonment and persistence. As a result, his life was a tragic death ending.

"Perseverance can carve a stone," Xunzi wrote. "As long as you keep carving with a knife, metal stones can also carve flowers." Metaphor is to be a persevering person. However, throughout the ages, people who follow this principle will eventually achieve something and make their lives shine. In modern history, a great inventor Edison was born. Edison's great pioneering work was not accomplished overnight, nor was it the crystallization of divine wisdom. Edison's brilliance is the result of unremitting efforts and sweat. Edison once said a famous saying: "Genius is made up of 99% sweat and 1% efforts." Throughout Edison's life, he experienced numerous setbacks, but only by persisting in his own beliefs and perseverance did he occasionally usher in a long-lost dawn of hope and gave birth to a great pioneering work, which was enough to witness the authenticity and reliability of Edison's famous saying. His great pioneering work and brilliant glory were forged and precipitated by the sweat of his persistence in faith.

Perseverance in the sweat of faith can precipitate the glory of success. Yuan Longping, the "father of hybrid rice", is also a typical example. When Yuan Longping successfully developed the method of hybrid rice, he looked back on the past, not only to comfort his past vicissitudes of life, but also to bear the distrust of others, the coldness and ridicule of others, the fiery heat in midsummer and the Leng Xue in winter, the suffering of setbacks, the imminent collapse of success and the precipitation of sweat. However, he persisted in his long-standing belief, turned the tide, persevered, and finally created brilliant glory. Throughout Yuan Longping's life, the honorary title of "Father of Hybrid Rice" and the method of hybrid rice are undoubtedly precipitated by the indomitable spirit and the sweat of persisting in faith, which makes the life that is about to be bleak glow with sacred dawn, light up the bleak life and make it shine.

I advocate, admire and admire the enterprising spirit of perseverance and faith, and satirize the negative attitude of perseverance and giving up at the beginning. Because the enterprising spirit of persistence and faith is like the sacred power given by sweat precipitation, with the sacred power, we are not afraid of being swallowed up by the confused night, and fight against the darkness of the confused night with the sacred power, so that people can finally get rid of the predicament, meet the dawn, glow with the long-lost dawn, and let the persistence and perseverance sweat cast a shining brilliance, achieve a brilliant life and bloom brilliant brilliance.
