Without Affairs is an Immortal, Without Concern is a Saint

Falling repeatedly on the road of life isn't scary; what's scary is repeatedly falling in the same place; the most frightening thing is losing confidence and persistence in success; after falling repeatedly, can we still stubbornly get up and continue to persevere until success? If you slump to the ground after being struck, you'll remain there forever at the feet of the victors.

Things must be done if they are conceived; if they are not done, they will create enemies; don't make rash promises, and promises will be fulfilled; if they are not fulfilled, they will become debts. When the atmosphere is uneasy, speak less; when words are spoken, they are inevitably lost; when the heart is not in harmony, don't do anything; if you do something, you will surely fail. Contentment is wealth, calmness is nobility, idleness is divinity, and lack of concern is saintliness.

What you do, others are jealous of; what you do wrong, others mock you; what you do less, others despise you; what you do more, others criticize you. When you are superior, others say you lack common sense; when you are approachable, others say you are not intelligent. As long as you are alive, they say you should die; when you die, they still kick your tombstone.
