Diligence is like a seedling in spring. If you don't see its increase, you will be stronger every day.
Dropping out of school is like a whetstone. Can't see the harm, losing money every day.
Vernacular translation:
Study hard, just like the seedlings that have just grown in spring. You can't feel it growing, but it grows every day. Putting aside learning is like sharpening a stone. You can't see it fade away. In fact, the stone is getting thinner every day.
The truth of extended data expression:
The accumulation of quantity will cause qualitative change, so we should pay attention to the accumulation of quantity. Learning must adhere to professional accumulation, and genius comes from diligence! On the road of knowledge, there is no shortcut, only perseverance can not change this only avenue.
Accumulation is the source, and accumulation is strength. Only by down-to-earth accumulation will there be tangible gains later. Learning is a gradual and persistent process. It is impossible to become a great scholar at once.
Facing the cliffs, you can't see a crack in a hundred years, but with an axe, you can move forward inch by inch. You must move forward inch by inch and accumulate constantly, and the leap will come and the breakthrough will follow. That's the truth.
