When you carefully taste the people and things in this world, you will realize that those who suddenly receive great rewards, or those who seem to have "pie fall from the sky," were initially people who devoted themselves without calculating costs. There is no love without cause in this world, nor is there any good fortune that falls out of thin air. You must have done something, paid a price, and given! Moreover, your sincerity reached a level where you forgot about the cost.
A journey of a thousand miles begins with a single step. Do not disdain small things, for big achievements are built from small actions; do not despise slow progress, for moving slowly is better than standing still. Do not envy others, for envy itself exposes your own insignificance. Walk your own path, look neither left nor right, do not look back, and keep moving forward. Do not ask about the results first; instead, ask about your own effort and dedication. Only in this way can you truly become an achiever in your career.
A certain degree of dreaming is like an appropriate dose of sedative; it is beneficial. It can bring rest to a mind that is feverish or even delirious from work, and generate a soft, cool spirit that helps refine rough concepts in pure thought, fill gaps and cracks, connect paragraphs, and polish the edges of imagination. However, excessive dreaming can lead to being overwhelmed or sinking into despair.
The process of our growth is never smooth; no one is born knowing how to speak or walk. Everyone must gradually grow through accumulation and tempering. Therefore, please believe that Paths are made by walking them—do not say you cannot. In your work, please stand up bravely to voice your opinions, even if you stutter, even if your views are not entirely correct. As long as you speak up with courage, it is a form of progress.
I also have sorrows and bitterness, but I choose to remain silent. I also have obsessions I cannot let go, but I choose to remain silent. I also have internal struggles, but I choose to remain silent. I am not pretending to be foolish or acting smart; I simply choose to remain silent. It is not that I did not see it, not that I did not think about it, and not that I do not understand; I just choose to remain silent.
