We are constantly running and chasing, but the results are not always satisfactory. Study hard, but it is difficult to obtain satisfactory results; work hard to do one thing, only to find that others have done it better.
In this world, not all efforts have satisfactory results. There are always various factors that can affect the development of things at any time.
A rare flash of inspiration, a rare opportunity, and various reasons will become a small factor in our success or regretful failure.
Opportunities always come to those who are prepared. We should make the greatest efforts, make the most adequate preparations, and do our best for our dreams before that little bit of karma arrives, instead of worrying about the results. .

He rarely goes out, even to small towns more than ten miles away.

If one wants to reduce motion sickness, the only way is to suppress the excitement level of the vestibular system.
When he was thirty, he told his elderly parents that he was going to learn to drive. Everyone objected. How could it be possible for a person who would vomit as soon as he got in the car? But he insisted.
The family helped him find a coach and told him his situation in advance. The coach agreed to the old man's request, but his symptom of "vomiting as soon as he got in the car" still made the coach unable to accept it. Therefore, he basically didn't eat anything before getting in the car every day, and only drank some salt water, so that there would be nothing to vomit in his stomach. Miraculously, the symptoms are gradually reducing. He felt that his persistence was right. Gradually, he could drive continuously for half an hour and there were no symptoms in his body.

At this time, the battleship radar captured an enemy ship ahead. The enemy ship was well-armed and equipped. The captain knew that the soldiers were almost incapable of fighting because of seasickness, and everyone's fate was grim. After the alarm was sounded, the soldiers all entered the combat position and concentrated their firepower on the enemy ships. After an hour of fierce fighting, the enemy ships fled in panic. Surprisingly, all the soldiers no longer suffered from seasickness.
If he had not "gnawed" those difficult medical books, if he had not seen this film, if he had not had the courage to bow his head, what kind of situation would he be in now?
