Jade must be cut to become a tool

As the old saying goes: Jade cannot be made into a tool if it is not cut.

The brilliant gold requires the refining of gold mines through thousands of washes; the round pearls require the hard work of river clams; the exquisite stone carvings require the efforts of the masons!

The first cry a musician makes when he is born is definitely not a beautiful sound. Einstein, the most outstanding physicist of the 20th century, said: "Between genius and diligence, I choose the latter without hesitation, because it is the birth mother of all success!" Einstein - this is what impressed him the most. People who are geniuses deny the existence of genius!

Therefore, whether a person becomes a talent or not has nothing to do with God, it only depends on himself. "The stupid bird flies first and enters the forest early." For people, as long as they can "enter the forest early", they are talents. It doesn't matter whether you are born stupid or smart, because "flying first" is the key. Qi Baishi, a great master in the modern Chinese painting world, was just a mediocre painter when he was over sixty years old. However, Qi Baishi concentrated on studying painting and remained determined, and he became stronger and stronger as time went by, and finally achieved great success. Qi Baishi spent his whole life confirming a truth to people: diligence is the key to success!

In the jungle, the taller trees are easily broken by the wind. As the saying goes: if the trees are beautiful in the forest, the wind will destroy them. However, the green pine often soars above the trees, but it is not afraid of frost or cold wind, because it is rooted in the green rock and has a strong foundation. Therefore, the wind cannot destroy all the beautiful trees, only those with weak foundations are broken. Just like some people who have the talent to become talented, but because they are unable to self-sustain and encourage themselves, cannot refine themselves and improve themselves, cannot lay a solid foundation with diligent work, they are eventually submerged by the trend of society. This is the case with Fang Zhongyong in Wang Anshi's works. Fang Zhongyong always contributed to his literary works and was extraordinary, but he was too proud of his talent and did not study diligently. In the end, he only ended up with no literary ideas and "wasted by everyone!"

Success or failure has nothing to do with innate factors. If your IQ is not high, then diligence can make you more powerful; if your IQ is not high, then diligence can create sparks of wisdom in your gloomy mind.

But if you are not diligent, everything can only be zero!

Because, even if you are a piece of jade, jade can only become a tool after being polished!
