Let’s talk about the meaning of grinding an iron pestle into a needle in connection with the actual situation.

It takes persistence to grind an iron pestle into a needle! Persistence will lead to success!

Persistence

A horse can’t take ten steps with one leap; a horse can ride ten steps without giving up. Likewise, the secret to success is not to achieve something overnight, but to persevere.

There was such a story.

In 1987, when she was 14 years old, she sold tea in a small town in Yiyang, Hunan, for 10 cents a cup. Because her teacups were one size larger than others, they sold the fastest. At that time, she was always busy and happy.

In 1990, when she was 17 years old, she moved her tea stall to Yiyang City and sold the local unique "Lei Tea". Leicha is more troublesome to make, but it is still affordable. That is, her small business is always busy.

In 1993, when she was 20 years old, she was still selling tea, but the location changed again. In Changsha, the provincial capital, the stall became a small store. When guests enter, they will be able to taste the hot fragrant tea. After enjoying it to their heart's content, they will more or less pay for another bag or two of tea.

In 1997, she was 24 years old. For ten years, she had been swimming between tea leaves and tea. At this time, she already owned 37 tea houses in Changsha, Xi'an, Shenzhen, Shanghai and other places. Tea merchants in Anxi, Fujian and Hangzhou, Zhejiang, all give a thumbs up when her name is mentioned.

In 2003, when she was 30 years old, her biggest dream came true. "In a country that is accustomed to drinking coffee, there are also teahouses filled with the fragrance of tea. That's what I opened..." When she said this, she had already opened teahouses in Hong Kong and Singapore.

There is another story.

When freshmen start school, "Today we only learn one of the easiest things. Everyone shakes their arms as far forward as possible, and then shakes them back as much as possible. Do it 300 times a day." The teacher said.

90% of people persisted after one month.

After another month, only 80% was left.

A year later, the teacher asked: "If you still insist on doing 300 times a day, please raise your hand!" Only one person in the entire classroom raised his hand, and he later became a great philosopher in the world.

These are two true stories, let us remember their names! Meng Qiaobo and Plato, a tea seller and a great philosopher

From these two It can be found in this story: There is no secret to success, the key is perseverance. Any great cause is achieved by perseverance and destroyed by giving up halfway. In fact, the easiest thing in the world is persistence, and the hardest thing is persistence. It is said to be easy because everyone can do it as long as they are willing; it is said to be difficult because only a few people can really persevere. Pasteur famously said, "Tell you the secret that enables me to achieve my goal. My only strength is my persistence."
