Taking shortcuts instead of detours is a principle that all smart people should adhere to when doing things. But there are almost no things in the world that don't take detours, and the so-called shortcuts don't exist in reality.
The straight line is just an abstract concept in mathematics. There is no real straight line in real life. We think that direct light is actually distorted.
Some writing enthusiasts are eager to achieve success, and they have not worked hard on basic skills, and they have no determination to read 10,000 books and write 1 million words. They only pay attention to the amount of reading, chase hot spots all day, work hard on topics, and try their best to find tips and get quick success.
Real winners, real smart people, have no idea of taking shortcuts. It is said that Zeng Guofan fought in the most stupid way, but he often won. With his wisdom, he should be familiar with Sun Tzu's art of war, but he has never used any art of war, because he knows that the so-called "strategy" is both a double-edged sword and a risk.
Lao Tzu said that "great wisdom is foolish", and the real great wisdom is beyond ordinary people's understanding. The great inventor Edison has no secret to success, only love and diligence. He spent his wedding night in the laboratory, usually working 16 hours every day, and never left the laboratory in his life.
In order to invent the electric light, he tried more than two thousand materials and failed. Finally, even his assistant and family couldn't stand it anymore and advised him to give up.
Of course, he didn't give up, otherwise there would be no incandescent lamp that influenced and changed the world. The reporter asked him what it was like to fail more than 2000 times. He said that I didn't fail, but found that more than 2000 materials were not suitable for filament.
So success is not a result, but a state of mind and concept.
I remember when I was a student and after work, I read a lot of books such as How to Write and Writing Skills, but I still couldn't write any composition or articles. Now I don't read those words that teach people to write, but my thinking is like a spring, simple and touching.
Yu Hua said: "The secret of writing is only one word, and that is writing. After twenty or thirty years of writing, writing will become your life. Everyone wants to take shortcuts, just like learning English. I asked my friend if there was a shortcut. The other party told me that there is only one way, that is, memorizing words. The more stupid a person is, the better he sometimes learns, because he is willing to work hard. "
After work, in order to learn to speak, I bought almost all books on speech and eloquence and read them. Sixteen years later, I still can't speak because there is no podium. Until 2003, I attended a public speaking training class and broke through the speech at once. Then give a speech to college students, be a wedding emcee and be a host.
Some people say that success is simple, one is the beginning and the other is persistence. In fact, these two are the simplest and the most difficult. Because many people can't start because of fear, and many people can't persist because of laziness.
Winners are not the smartest people, but the most honest and practical people, and those who achieve great success are the noblest people.
