Despite his great efforts, the results of his work were not satisfactory. He found that some people didn't need to work as hard as him to succeed, which filled his heart with confusion and pain.
One day, Li Ming met a wise man by chance. The wise man told him, "Effort with results is exercise, and effort without results is tempering." This sentence made Li Ming suddenly brightened. He began to reflect on his own experience and came to realize that hard work does not necessarily lead to success, but the process of hard work is a valuable asset.
