Xiruo asked Ye Feng: "Can you succeed if you work hard? Is hard work really worthless in the face of talent?"
Ye Feng looked at Xi Ruo with slightly narrowed eyes and thought to himself: You girl, are you planning to seek enlightenment from me for all the grievances you suffered from Jiang Yunhe?
Although Ye Feng thought so in his heart, he finally said as if giving up:
"Although I also want to tell you the secret of success, I also want to tell you for sure that hard work will lead to success. Hard work will allow you to catch up with and surpass talented geniuses.
"But this is actually not the case. If hard work leads to success, then the most successful person in the world should be the green bull in our family."
Hearing this, Xiruo burst into tears and smiled. Ye Feng sighed inwardly. It was so damn tiring to coax girls.
. . .
But Ye Feng inside the space bead was in a miserable state. Yingying said coldly: "Oh, Feng, can't you tell, he is very good at coaxing girls!"
At this moment, Xun'er and Qing Ni summoned the Hunyuan Qiankun Tower and Qianbenzakura respectively. Ren Xiaojin and Xiao Wu both stepped aside and stood aside. It seems that Xiao Wu has almost awakened?
Ye Feng suddenly broke into a cold sweat on his forehead, and said hurriedly: "Hey... everyone, listen to my explanation, things are not what you think."
. . .
The narrator said: It’s that scumbag line again. Does it bother you? Could you please change the line next time?
. . .
Ye Feng then said to Xi Ruo:
"To explain the relationship between hard work and success, we can compare success to a beautiful house. To build a house, what you need to do is: lay the foundation, pour the beams, build the walls, fill the soil, and seal the roof. , decoration, etc.
"As the saying goes, a tall building rises from the ground. The foundation is the foundation and foundation of the house, so the foundation and foundation must be laid well. Otherwise, the foundation will not be strong and the earth will shake.
"Effort is part of the foundation of a house for success. The reason why effort is only the foundation is because everyone knows that you have to work hard. And the things that everyone knows are of no value to making you stand out. . Because everyone has worked hard, everyone has laid the foundation. But if you don’t work hard, you don’t even have a foundation, and it is impossible to build a good house. Even if you have the help of external conditions, without a foundation, If you forcefully build a house, like a castle in the air, what do you think will happen to that kind of house in the end?"
Xiruo said: "Of course it will collapse sooner or later."
Ye Feng said: "Yes, this is the reason why the rich second generation who don't work hard lose their fortunes. Although they have external conditions such as family background, connections, etc., but they don't work hard and have no foundation, the better the external conditions are, the more they force others to help them. The higher he builds the house, the end result will be that the house is more likely to collapse due to an unstable foundation, and the more painful it will be if it hits someone."
"Success and failure in this world are also relative concepts. But not everyone's success is the gorgeous house that is finally built. Some people are short-sighted and think that success is the height of the house I built. I am higher than you and progress faster than you, so I am more successful than you.
"Talent does not belong to the foundation, but to the steps after laying the foundation to build the wall. The height is naturally higher than the effort of the foundation. And this is why you feel that hard work is worthless in front of talent. Because your eyes are only focused on the current height and progress of the house, not the final completion of the house.
"At the same time, this also explains why hard work is useless, because if you only work hard, it will only expand the foundation and make the foundation solid. If you don't do the steps after laying the foundation, then the progress of your house will be It can only stay at the foundation part, and the height of the house will always be zero.”
Xiruo seemed to understand something.
When Ye Feng saw this, he stopped selling coffins. This was better than Ye Yu, so he said:
"To be successful, in addition to hard work and talent, you also need many, many other things, such as opportunities, environment, direction, help from noble people, etc. To put it simply, it is the right time, right place and right people. If you want to be successful, you must eventually build a Hard work and talent alone are not enough to build a house. Therefore, since ancient times, although many people have known that they have to work hard and lay a good foundation, few people can achieve ultimate success. This is because other conditions are not available to everyone. Qi, and more people are so intimidated that they even give up their efforts.
"This just corresponds to the pyramid of human society. Successful people are a few at the top, and the vast majority are losers at the bottom. They cannot convince their hearts to persist, so the ones we see most are those who give up halfway. There are few complete houses with broken walls. Didn’t I just say that there is only one kind of loser since ancient times, and that is the person who gives up before reaching success.
"Actually, hard work is not completely useless. You have to know that the harder you work, the bigger and stronger the foundation will be. Then the upper limit height that the house may eventually reach will be higher, and the house will be stronger. But remember that is only a possibility. , not certainty. What you have to do is to keep working hard, find the right direction, never give up hope, wait for opportunities, and finally turn that possibility into certainty! That’s all.”
At this time Xiruo asked: "Ye Feng, how do you know so much, because you are also a successful person?"
Hearing this, Ye Feng was stunned for a moment. After being speechless for a moment, he then smiled bitterly and said: "I have always been a loser. It's just that I have failed more, and I know more about nature. It is precisely because I have failed so many, So I understand,
“A real loser is someone who is so afraid of not succeeding that they don’t even dare to try.
“I don’t persist because I see the hope of success, but I understand that only by persisting can I see the hope of success.
"I have always believed that "the opposite is the movement of Tao" - all bad things are in order to welcome good things, and all difficulties will make way for your efforts and persistence.
"Failure is not terrible, fear of failure is truly terrible."
Hearing this, Xiruo was no longer confused, but finally said happily: "I understand, thank you, Ye Feng."
Seeing that the haze on her face had really dissipated, Ye Feng said, "Although I'm very happy that you can understand, I still want to give you some suggestions:
“First of all, you can express anger, but you can’t express it in anger.
“Secondly, now that you have made your choice, don’t question why you chose it in the first place.
"Finally, don't trust anyone easily."
At this time, Xiruo asked Ye Feng: "Don't believe anyone easily? Can't you believe it, including you?"
Ye Feng smiled and said, "Yes, including me."
. . .
Afterwards, Ye Feng and Xi Ruo found thousands of people there. When thousands of people saw Ye Feng and Xiruo appearing together, they couldn't help but wonder:
"You two? On a date?"
Ye Feng looked at the crowd of thousands of people with great contempt and cursed:
"Give me back the cigarette!"
