Original text: aim high, admire sages, abandon lust and doubt. So that the ambition of Shu Ji can be revealed and felt sorrowfully. Endure flexion and extension, go to fine pieces, ask questions widely, except for being too stingy. Although there is stay for a long time, why harm the beauty, why suffer from it? If the ambition is not strong, the spirit is not generous, and the people are stuck in the vulgar, silently tied to the feelings, and they will never be mediocre.

Translation:

A person should have lofty aspirations, admire the sages, abstain from lust, and abandon the factors that hinder progress, so that the ambitions of the sages can be remarkably preserved in himself and deeply shocked in his heart; We should be flexible, discard trivialities, consult people extensively, and get rid of suspicion and meanness, so that even if we stay because of setbacks, we will not damage our good interests, so why worry about failing to achieve our goals? If the ambition is not strong and firm, and the spirit is not impassioned, then you will indulge in vulgarity and be bound by lust in obscurity, and you will inevitably fall into the ranks of ordinary people and even become a vulgar and inferior generation.
