It's human nature to be in a hurry, and if you are also constantly haunted by rush-to-get thoughts, then I highly recommend you read this article to the end.
Recently, I have arranged a Xi time for myself to learn professional knowledge, and I have set aside at least 1 hour every night to learn Xi professional knowledge.
But after studying Xi for more than an hour last night, I found that I seemed to have studied for more than a week Xi, and I had only learned half of the current knowledge.
When I thought that there were so many knowledge points to learn Xi later, I felt that my speed of learning Xi was too slow.
I thought I would be able to learn the entire body of knowledge in a few months, but it took so long in the first step, so when would I have to learn it?
I sat in front of the computer, thinking to myself that I was learning too slowly, and I felt very anxious.
Eventually, I had a terrible idea, and a voice in my heart told me, "Since it takes me so long to learn Xi, I might as well stop learning and live a life as a gangster in my current company."
When I noticed that I had this thought, I remembered a quote from Nietzsche:
If you fight with a dragon for too long, you will become a dragon yourself; Stare into the abyss for too long, and the abyss will stare back.
Thinking of this, I decided that I could no longer sit still, so blindly focused on wanting to learn the whole course quickly, and eventually I might really feel that this thing could not be completed, and choose to break the jar and give up Xi directly.
Understand what the teacher said, no matter what state you are in, you can always do something to change the status quo.
So I decided to take action and open the tick list and do the rest of the to-do.
When you're feeling anxious and depressed, exercise and reading can help you make a difference.
It just so happened that I saw that there was another crunch exercise on my to-do list, so I took out my equipment and started exercising.
In the process of exercising, I suddenly remembered a passage from Mr. Huashan in "Hua and Hua Zhengdao":
The more time you spend, the more worth doing. If you are willing to calm down and take your time, you are the biggest leader. If it takes three years to do something, it can lead others by three years to do something. If it takes ten years to do something, it can lead others by ten years to achieve something. So the more time you spend, the more worth doing. Most people want to be fast, and they all go to the things that can be harvested in a year and a half, so most people are unproductive.The meaning of this passage is to say:
The longer it takes to get something done, the more worthwhile it is.
If it takes you three years to do it, then you're three years ahead of the people who wanted to do it but didn't.
But most people want to be fast, they are in a hurry, they want to see the effect in a year and a half or even a few months, and get the harvest, so most people are not productive.
Isn't that what I am now?
I didn't know about accumulation before, and I didn't know how to use my off-duty time to learn and Xi.
Now they want to master such a huge system of professional and technical knowledge in just a few months.
Am I not one of the majority of people that Mr. Huashan said?
Learning Xi professional skills does not rely on the continuous accumulation of daily and a large number of Xi, but only wants to learn quickly and see the effect quickly.
If I keep thinking like this, I'm doomed to be as useless as most people.
Just like the experience of wanting to do a side hustle online in the first two years, blindly pursuing quick monetization without accumulating my basic skills, in the end I just wasted a lot of time and money, but there was no gain or return.
For example, when I saw others making ** editing to make money, I also signed up for many courses to learn Xi to make ** editing.
At first, I was full of enthusiasm to cut** and then sent it to the short** platform, thinking that the cut ** was not bad, but the traffic was bleak.
After doing it for a while, I lose confidence, but I don't reflect on what problems I have, what aspects need to be improved, and what abilities need to be exercised.
Then I threw myself into other projects, and continued to repeat the vicious cycle of buying courses and giving up after a few days.
In fact, the problem of not being able to do a project is not the project, but myself.
I myself am in a hurry, I always want to see the harvest too quickly, and I don't want to take the time to accumulate, so I make one failure one.
After thinking about this reason, I realized that if you want to do something, you need to calm down and take the time to learn and Xi and accumulate.
In fact, there is so much professional knowledge, if I learn a little bit every day, then I will have to learn a little less in the future.
As long as I continue to learn Xi every day, I will definitely finish all this knowledge one day in the future.
And if I blindly pursue fast and want to find shortcuts, I will eventually give up because of the gap between reality and ideals.
In that case, I will never be able to learn all this knowledge, and I will not make a breakthrough in my work, and I will eventually live this life without doing anything.
Therefore, no matter what knowledge and skills you Xi, you should not be greedy and rush to achieve results and give up those things that take time to complete.
Because the more time you spend to accomplish something, the more valuable it is, and the more you will gain in the future.
If you are in a hurry and are not willing to calm down on the things that should be spent on the time, and take the time to accumulate, then you will definitely get nothing in the end.
Take this as a lesson and alert myself.
Rushing to achieve and seeking refuge are human weaknesses that must be overcome if we want to succeed.
The longer it takes, the more it is worth it for us to calm down and spend time accumulating.
If you don't take the time to accumulate today, you are borrowing tomorrow's time, and you will always have to repay it in the future.
Whether it's learning Xi professional knowledge or learning Xi writing, I have to calm down and take time to accumulate.
Because the more time you spend on something, the more worthwhile it is, and once you do it, I'm years ahead of others.
Write at the end. Teacher Huashan said that there is only one reason for everything, and it is the work of continuous work every day.
As long as you persist every day, how slow is the fastest; If you don't stick to it every day, no matter how fast you are, it's also a convulsion.
So we need to be quiet and do the things that take more time.
Insist on accumulating a little bit every day, making a little progress, accumulating steps, and reaching thousands of miles.
Wish: Keep doing things that take more time every day.
It's a new day, and it's a good day
