The meaning of work

If you ever think things might not turn out as well as you hoped, move on. There is so much else going on in the world that is at least as interesting as what you are doing, where you have a much better chance of making a difference, that spending time on things that you might not end up proud of is a terrible waste of your short time on Earth.

translate ：

Spend time on things you won't be proud of in the end , It's a terrible thing , Wasted your short journey on earth .

　　 The teacher asked him why he couldn't pick , He said ：“ Because you can only pick it once , You can't go back , In the meantime, even if I see a big ear of wheat , Because I don't know whether there is better ahead , So I didn't pick ; When you get to the front , I found that it was not as good as I had seen before , It turns out that the largest ear in the wheat field , I missed it long ago ; therefore , I can't pick anything .”
　　 The teacher said ：“ This is love .”
　　 Another day , Plato asked his teacher Socrates what marriage is ？

You can only pick it once during this period , Similarly, you can only move forward , Can't turn back . This time, , Bora came back with an ordinary tree . The teacher asked him ：“ How to bring this ordinary tree back ”？ He said ：“ With the last experience , When I walked most of the way empty handed , It's not too bad to see this tree , Then cut it off , So as not to miss , Finally, I can't bring anything out .”
　　 The teacher said ：“ This is marriage .”
