There are two monks living in temples on two adjacent hills, east and west. There is a stream between these two mountains. These two monks would go down the mountain to fetch water at the same time every day. Over time, they became good friends.
Just like that, five years have passed without realizing it in the water carrying every day. Suddenly one day, the monk from the mountain in the east did not go down the mountain to carry water. The monk from the mountain in the west thought to himself, "He probably overslept." So he didn't care.
How could I know that the monk on the mountain in the east did not go down the mountain to carry water the next day, and the same was true on the third day. It was the same after a week, until a month later, the monk on the mountain to the west finally couldn't stand it. He thought to himself, "My friend may be sick, I want to visit him to see what he can do."
So he climbed up the mountain to visit his old friend.
When he arrived on the mountain to the east, he was shocked when he saw his old friend because his old friend was practicing Tai Chi in front of the temple, and he didn't look like a person who hadn't drunk water for a month. He asked curiously: "You haven't gone down the mountain to carry water for a month. Can you not drink water?" The monk from the mountain to the east of
said, "Come on, I'll take you to see it." So he took him to the backyard of the temple, pointed to a well and said, " In the past five years, I have taken time to dig this well every day after finishing my homework. Even if I'm sometimes busy, I can dig as much as I can. Now I finally let me dig out the well water, so I don't have to go down the mountain to carry water anymore. I can have more time to practice my favorite Tai Chi."
After reading this little story, we must be touched.
Everyone has 24 hours a day fairly. The time of this day can be divided into 3 8 hours, one 8 hours is used for sleeping and resting, and the other 8 hours is mainly to work. Most people are similar in these two 8 hours, while the efficiency of each person's utilization in the remaining 8 hours is very different, and these 8 hours are precisely an important time period to widen the gap between people.
Some people watch TV chase dramas, play games on Douyin, drink small wine and grill skewers, and engage in various entertainment and entertainment. Sometimes they want to make progress but cannot be self-disciplined, and live a life of boiling frogs in warm water.
. Some people make full use of these 8 hours. First, plan the goals that will be achieved and sprinted in work and life this year, and then arrange their own work and schedule. Get up at six o'clock every day, read or write for an hour or an hour and a half, then wash and eat breakfast and go to work. You can make full use of the time to and from get off work and lunch, listen to books or take online courses. After get off work in the evening, you will go home to have supper and spend your family and children, and then devote yourself to your own study and improvement. Some will also use the time after get off work to go out to class to recharge and move forward in an orderly manner along your goals.
In the same time period and in different spaces, some people are growing and improving unknowingly, while others are making the gap between themselves and outstanding people bigger and bigger.
The 8 hours of work every day are like a monk carrying water every day, doing simple and repetitive work step by step, and receiving a fixed salary.
. The monks on the mountain in the east take some time to dig wells every day, just like the latter type of people who study and recharge their spare time, and constantly dig a well for their future. The process will inevitably be hard. No matter how busy is, they have to take time to dig wells . But as long as they analyze that there will be water here, and then persist and work hard, there will be the day when the water is dug out, and then they will no longer have to work so hard to carry water.
Did you dig a well for your future? If not, act quickly!
