When a person becomes more and more integrated with the way of heaven, the clumsiness (not calculating, not snobbish, not tending to be inflammatory), simple (washing away the lead, returning to the basics) and sincere energy in the body are getting stronger and stronger.
The most classic examples of this trait are, for example, in China, the industrialist Cao Dewang and the founder of Huawei, Ren Zhengfei, ......Abroad, there are Steve Jobs, the founder of Apple, Elon Musk, the founder of Tesla, Kazuo Inamori of Japan, and so on.
All of these well-known people have emphasized the benefits of doing something with a seemingly clumsy but down-to-earth attitude. This trait is also a trait that a person must have when pushed to the top of a certain field or industry by God, many times they will not be smart, more means, more opportunistic, but with a heart to do things well, with a stupid way to try it out little by little, and often once they are opportunistic, they will make a mistake, and it is easy to lose the experience of laying a solid foundation.
And the experience of implementing these stupid methods is the key factor in whether they can stand firm for a long time after they succeed. The road is simple, before a person is polished to the top state by God, their power mode is with a certain clumsiness, but they can go beyond the vanity and flashiness, and go straight to the essence, similar to Lao Tzu's "elephant is invisible, big sound Xisheng", the most high-end things are often carved out with the most stupid methods.
For example, those exquisite and durable and even collectible carved artworks are all masterpieces completed by the artist from the initial clumsy technique to the continuous polishing of carving skills over many years.
As the saying goes, wealth is a supply of knowledge, not a reward for effort. But if you want to achieve the unity of knowledge and action, clumsiness and persistence can be a kind of simplicity. This clumsiness, catalyzed by time, may snowball your value with compound interest.
