　　As the saying goes “more haste, less speed”, haste never helps, instead it makes waste. There are two kinds of goals in our life: short-term and long-term goals. I used to chase short-term goals, wanting things to be done quickly, however, the results tended to turn out just the opposite of what I wish.

　　Short-term goals are those that usually deal with current activities, which we can apply on a daily basis, while long-term goals related to our dreams of the future, which need a process of pursuing. Without accumulation of knowledge, we can’t achieve this lifelong goal or grasp the good chance.

　　An early success may be dangerous, it is said that young people with fame and recognition tend to get lost because they are not sober enough to resist the temptation. But through many setbacks and failures, people can become tougher and more persistent so that he/she wouldn't get frustrated easily in later time or even get prepared to confront another setback.

　　In short, only in the process of pursuing long term, realistic goals can knowledge be accumulated, thus leading to success.
