Chapter 41 Rushing for success will only spoil the seedlings

Eager for success and wishing to make rapid progress often backfires. Most people know this truth, but they always go against it.Many famous people in history only truly grasped this truth after making such mistakes. Zhu Xi of the Song Dynasty was a great Confucian of his generation, and he was extremely intelligent since he was a child. When he was four years old, his father pointed to the sky and said: This is the sky. Zhu Xi then asked: What is there in the sky?Such intelligence amazed his father. He began to study Taoism when he was a teenager, and he was also interested in Buddhism. He hoped that he could achieve something early in his studies.

He made a wonderful interpretation of haste, waste with sixteen-character mantra: it is better to be detailed than to be brief, to be near rather than far, to be inferior than to be high, and to be clumsy rather than clever. Blindly pursuing haste and seeking quickness subjectively violates objective laws, and the consequence can only be that more haste makes less speed.A person can only achieve his goal if he gets rid of the instant mentality, works hard step by step, and strives step by step. There is a child who likes to study biology very much, and wants to know how a chrysalis breaks out of a cocoon and becomes a butterfly.Once, he saw a pupa in the grass, so he took it home and observed it every day.A few days later, a crack appeared in the chrysalis, and the butterfly inside began to struggle, trying to break through the chrysalis and fly out.The arduous process lasted for several hours, and the butterfly struggled hard in the chrysalis.

The child couldn't bear it, and wanted to help it, so he picked up the scissors and cut open the chrysalis, and the butterfly broke out of the chrysalis.But he didn't expect that after the butterfly broke free from the chrysalis, it could not fly at all because its wings were not strong enough, and soon died a painful death. The process of breaking out of the cocoon and becoming a butterfly is very painful and difficult, but only through this experience can one exchange for dancing gracefully in the future.The help of external forces goes against the natural process, and the growth of seedlings will only turn love into harm, and finally let the butterfly die tragically.

★Life is delicious★ Haste makes waste, eager pursuit of success will lead to final failure.When you do things, you should take a far-sighted view, pay attention to the accumulation of knowledge, and accumulate knowledge, and you will naturally achieve your goals.Many careers must have a process of painful struggle, and this is also the process of training you to be strong, making you grow, and making you powerful.
