How to understand "seemingly trying, but actually wasting time"?

Someone once said: I have worked hard for half my life just to waste my time.

I think wasting time is also a skill.

Life is alive, and not eating fireworks is just a distant legend. Even great men and saints who are ambitious to save the country and the people from the quagmire always have trivial troubles.

Any effort without purpose is just a show; Any action without a plan is just a mistake.

Some people's lives are restless and impetuous from the beginning, and they keep trying to make mistakes but they keep making mistakes.

Some people have a clear goal in life from the beginning, a clear direction, advantages and disadvantages, and constantly strive towards the established goals in life, accumulating small victories into great achievements, and naturally become famous.

Self-orientation, self-cognition and correct self-cognition can avoid going in the wrong direction; I don't know myself well enough to correctly understand my advantages and disadvantages. No matter how hard I try, it's in vain.

A person keeps pushing and constantly applying his strength to useless points. In other words, you were driving east, but you accelerated to drive west. If the direction is biased, the positioning will be biased and the driving force will be wasted. No amount of strength can help you go where you want to go. This is a typical scattered land, the whole ridge, but I don't know what to plant, and I get nothing all year round.

Some people say that you can be more patient. But your self-awareness is wrong. There are such people. Obviously, your ability is not up to that height. You have to set yourself an unreachable goal. You have to move a stone that you can't move at all. In the end, it will only hit your toes. Or on the way to achieving your goal, you have exhausted your initial spirit, and it is futile to wait patiently until then, so it has nothing to do with patience.

Some people say that self-discipline that can be adhered to will become an opportunity for you to change. Similarly, when you know you are wrong, self-discipline is just a joke that makes you laugh.

The biggest gap between people is not the gap between efforts, but the gap between life direction and life orientation. Some people can always hit the target directly, while others are busy but in vain. Some people work hard in one position, but they don't improve for a long time, but they shine in another position. In fact, there is a very important theory behind it: direction is more important than effort, and positioning is more important than skill.

Idle time is also a skill.

Among them, Ma Yun 1988 graduated from Hangzhou Normal University and later taught at Hangzhou Institute of Electronic Technology. His first contact with the Internet was when 1995 visited the United States. After returning to China, he founded the website "China Yellow Pages", resigned from public office from 1999, founded Alibaba website, developed e-commerce applications, and quickly became the largest e-commerce platform in the world and the largest internet company in China. He really changed the world, and at the same time, he also changed his own destiny.

I always believe that as long as we never give up, we still have a chance. Finally, we still firmly believe that as long as you have a dream, as long as you keep working hard, as long as you keep learning, no matter how you look, no matter this or that, a person's appearance is often inversely proportional to his talent. Today is cruel, tomorrow is more cruel, and the day after tomorrow is beautiful, but most of them will die tomorrow night, so don't give up today.

This famous saying of Ma Yun has inspired many young people who keep working hard.

Unlike some people who turn around step by step, they have "canoed across Chung Shan Man", leaving only a cloud and no trace. No matter how good the scenery is, it has long since passed away. People who have no goals are destined to be passers-by in life. So it is not surprising that "they seem to be working hard, but in fact they are wasting their time".

Today after today, how few today! Not today, when! Life is a hundred years today, today is not a pity! If we wait until the Ming dynasty, there will be something in the Ming dynasty.

No matter how hard you look or really work, from today on, if you don't really start, you can't choose to give up. Otherwise, such people will never change the world, let alone themselves, and will only be ravaged by the world.

Pay attention to @ Gehua, enjoy life, communicate widely and speak freely.

In fact, many people seem to be working hard, but they are actually wasting their time.

My former high school roommate was such a person. Because he is busy studying, he studies under the covers with a flashlight until two o'clock in the morning every night. It looks very hard.

However, what he gets from reading books every night is a continuous decline in his grades. Why?

It turns out that he is trying to review his lessons every day. Because of the lack of sleep time, it seems that studying late into the night only takes up sleep time, which leads to listlessness in class during the day.

I want to ask, what kind of learning efficiency will this night reading have?
