Students, please be diligent! Diligence will make you taste the sweet fruits and make you have no regrets in your life. Below are 6 allusions to diligent and studious celebrities that I have collected. Welcome to read.
1. Cantilevered thorns (or called: head cantilevered thorns)
It is about Su Qin. Su Qin was born in Chengxuanli, Luoyang, Eastern Zhou Dynasty during the Warring States Period, with the courtesy name Ji Zi. Su Qin is from Luoyang. Although he comes from a poor family, he has great ambitions. After studying lobbying skills with Gui Guzi for many years, he saw that his classmates Pang Juan, Sun Bin, etc. were all going down the mountain one after another to seek fame, so he also bid farewell to his teacher Zhang Yi and went down the mountain. Zhang Yi went to Wei State, while Su Qin traveled around various countries for several years, but achieved nothing and had to return home in embarrassment.
When Su Qin returned home, his elder brother, sister-in-law, younger brother, younger sister, and wife all laughed at him for not doing his job properly and only talking.
Therefore, Su Qin determined to study hard and become famous all over the world. In order to seize the time to study, Su Qin also came up with a good idea. When he was studying, he tied his hair with a rope and hung it on a beam. If he dozed off, his hair would wake him up. Late at night, if you feel sleepy, prick your thigh with an awl to stay awake. This is the origin of the idiom "the head cantilevers the beam, and the cone stabs the stock".
2 Wei Bian San Jue
Books in the Spring and Autumn Period were mainly made of bamboo. Bamboo was broken into bamboo sticks, which were called bamboo "slips". After the fire dried it, writing was written on it. Bamboo slips have a certain length and width. A bamboo slip can only write one line of characters, ranging from dozens to eight or nine. A book requires many bamboo slips, and these bamboo slips must be woven together with strong ropes before they can be read. A book like "Yi" is of course composed of many bamboo compendia connected together, so it has considerable weight.
Confucius spent a lot of effort to read the entire "Yi" and basically understood its content. Soon I read it a second time and mastered its basic points. Then, he read it a third time and had a thorough understanding of its spirit and essence. After that, in order to study this book in depth and explain it to his disciples, he read it countless times. After reading and reading like this, the cowhide straps connecting the bamboo slips were worn several times and had to be replaced with new ones many times.
Finally, Confucius wrote ten articles based on his research results on the "Book of Changes" and named them "Ten Wings". Later generations attached the "Ten Wings" to the back of the "Book of Changes" as a supplement to the "Book of Changes".
Even after reading this point, Confucius said modestly: "If I had been allowed to live a few more years, I would have been able to fully grasp the text and quality of "Yi"."
< p> Wisdom words: Confucius has a famous saying: "It is better to learn something well, and to enjoy it better than to be good." It means: learning something is not as good as liking it, and liking it is not as fun as learning it. It is precisely because Confucius was able to study diligently and concentrate so hard that he could become a saint of his generation.The story "Cheng Men Li Xue" tells the story of Song Dynasty scholars Yang Shi and You Zuo who came to Cheng Hao and Cheng Yi for advice.
According to legend, one day Yang Shi came to Songyang Academy to meet Cheng Yi, and met the old gentleman with his eyes closed, sitting up and pretending to sleep. Cheng Yi knew clearly that a guest was coming, but he refused to say anything and ignored him. Yang Shi was afraid of disturbing his husband's rest, so he could only stand respectfully and silently waiting for him to open his eyes. After waiting like this for a long time, Cheng Yi suddenly woke up. When he saw Yang, he pretended to be surprised and said: "Ah! Ah! The sages have been here long ago!" This means that you are still here and have not left. It was a very cold day in winter. I don’t know when it started to snow. There was snow outside the door, more than a foot deep.
4 Chiseling the Wall to Steal the Light
It is about Kuang Heng, a famous scholar in the Western Han Dynasty. Kuang Heng was born in a peasant family and lived in very poverty. He had been eager to study since he was a child, but his parents could not afford to send him to school or even buy books. Kuang Heng had to borrow books from others.
One night, Kuang Heng really wanted to read before going to bed, but because his family was so poor that he didn't even have lamp oil, he couldn't light a lamp and read. When Kuang Heng was worried, he suddenly found a ray of light coming from the gap in the wall. It turned out to be the neighbor's light. Kuang Heng came up with a plan, and used a chisel to dig the small slit into a small hole. Then he held the book, leaned against the wall, and read with the weak light. From then on, Kuang Heng borrowed the neighbor's light every night and studied hard, and finally became a famous scholar.
5 Dance upon hearing the rooster
The famous general of the Eastern Jin Dynasty who danced upon hearing the rooster: Zu Ti. Zu Ti lived in the late Western Jin Dynasty and the early Eastern Jin Dynasty.

Every time he goes to the fields, he scatters grain and silk to help the poor. This is what the township party clan attaches great importance to." He once served as the head of Sizhou together with Liu Kun. book. The two had the same spirit and became sworn friends.
