Essay: People who work harder than you must be smarter than you
01
I don't know when it began, but there is a lot of noise in society: hard work does not necessarily pay off.
The people who say these words, their tone is resentful, full of pathos, and deep down they seem to have negative emotions at all times, and the poisonous bitter water spurts out of their mouths.
Stay away from them, away from these voices.
There is only one thing you have to do, I believe that hard work can be rewarded, and only hard work can be rewarded.

When I was in junior high school, there was a girl in my class who worked very hard and could be said to be one of the hardest working.
But in contrast to her poor report card, her red test papers. Many male classmates are laughing at her, using her as an excuse for not working hard, and what they often talk about is "You see that so-and-so is working so hard, and he is not the same as me".
I tried my best to help her in her studies, and the teachers gave her a lot of praise, but even so, her grades were still not good, and it seemed that she was not the material for studying.
Not surprisingly, she was admitted to a general high school. But later, when I heard about her by chance, it was the good news that she had been admitted to college with the first place in their school.
Really surprised and impressed.
Later, I figured out that she was a really smart person, because only smart people know how important hard work is!

The high school homeroom teacher once had a lot of witty words, but what impressed me was the sentence "Some students don't get good grades because they don't work hard, and some students don't work hard enough!"
There have always been many poor students who will complain and complain: "I have worked hard, I listen carefully to the lectures, I work the questions, and I still have not made any progress!" and then after speaking, he immediately deflated and went to play the game listlessly.
I just want to say to this kind of person, "How long have you been working, how have you worked hard, how long have you worked hard in a day, have you been playing?"
In fact, they have never paid at all, they say that they work hard but they are self-inflicted, pretending, and deceiving their parents!
In the classroom, they looked like they were hard at work, and the books on their desks were piling up like clouds. I didn't move after class, and I went home and locked myself in the study...... Does this look very serious, a diligent, conscientious and good student?
Wrong! They are simply exposed to the cold! Two nights in three days!
They are working hard, in fact, they may be doing a problem, or they are simply copying a topic and using it as a review; when you open the reference book on their desk, you will see that it is full of white pages, all brand new, and occasionally a few words, or their own big name, or a famous song of so-and-so; they are in a daze after class, thinking about what to eat at noon; when they go home and close the door, they think about how to make a fortune!
Work hard, your sister hasn't skimmed yet, you are pretending, formalism!

Anyone can make the shell of hard work, and the core of hard work can only be mastered by smart people!
A person who can hold on to something for a long, long time must be extremely intelligent.
Socrates had countless students, and the only one who really became a great philosopher and inherited his mantle was Plato, who insisted on raising his hand for a year.
"If you leap into a leap, you can't take ten steps, and you can't give up your work if you drive ten horses. ”
Ten years of sharpening a sword, ten years of looking at the cold window, ten years of planting trees. How many people will be able to hold on?
It's hard to persevere, and it's even harder to be single-minded!
Concentrate on something, have no distractions, and are not swayed by the rest. "I don't listen to things outside the window, and I only read the books of the sages" How many people can do it?
It's hard to be single-minded, and it's even harder to give up your life!
Can you dedicate yourself to the cause you love? Can you dedicate your youth to your children and grandchildren for the so-called ideal?
Most people can't even do the first point of persistence, and talk about their hard work, struggle, hard work, no return?
Let's first reflect on whether your so-called efforts are empty or down-to-earth.
