Today I will redouble my value. Mulberry leaves turn into silk in the hands of genius. Clay becomes a fortress in the hands of genius. The cypress has become a temple in the hands of genius. Wool becomes a cassock in the hands of genius. If mulberry leaves, clay, cypress and wool can increase their value hundreds of times through human creation, then why can't I make myself worth a hundred times?
My destiny is like a grain of wheat, with three different paths. A grain of wheat may be put in a sack and piled on a shelf, waiting to be fed to pigs, or it may be ground into flour to make bread, or it may be removed from the soil and let it grow until hundreds of grains of wheat are produced on the golden ears. The only difference between me and a grain of wheat is that it cannot choose whether to rot or make bread, or plant and grow. And I have the freedom to choose, I will not let life rot, nor will I let it be crushed and pushed around under the rock of failure and despair.
If you want the wheat to grow and bear fruit, you must plant it in the dark soil. My failure, disappointment, ignorance and incompetence are the dark soil. I must stick deep in the soil and wait for it to mature. Wheat grains will eventually sprout, blossom and bear fruit under the feeding of sun and rain. Similarly, I also want to improve my body and mind in order to regulate my dreams. Wheat grains have to wait for the opportunity of nature to mature, but I do not have to wait, because I have the ability to choose my own destiny.
How can we do that? First of all, I want to set goals for every day, every week, every month, every year, and even my life. Just as seeds need the nourishment of Rain Water to break out and sprout and grow leaves, my life must have a purpose in order to bear fruit. When setting goals, you might as well refer to the best achievements in the past and make them carry forward. This must be the goal of my future life. Never worry about aiming too high. If you take the law above, you will get one of them; if you take the middle of the law, you will get the bottom of it.
Lofty goals will not intimidate me, although I may suffer setbacks before reaching them. If I fall down and get up again, I won't lose heart, because everyone will be frustrated before they reach the goal. Only little reptiles don't have to worry about falling. I'm not a reptile, not an onion, not a sheep. I'm alone. Let others make their clay caves. All I have to do is build a castle.
The sun warms the earth, and the wheat spits and bears fruit. The words on these scrolls will also shine on my life and make my dreams come true. Today I want to surpass yesterday's achievements. I will try my best to climb the peak today, and please climb another tall building tomorrow. Surpassing others is not important, surpassing yourself is the most important thing.
The spring breeze ripens the ears of wheat, and the wind blows my voice to the ears of those who are willing to listen. I want to declare my goal. I want to be my own prophet. Although people may laugh at my words, they will listen to my plans and understand my dreams, so I have nowhere to run until I keep my promise.
I can't lower my goal. I'm going to do what losers disdain. I don't stay on what I can do. I am not satisfied with what I have achieved. Set a higher goal when the goal is reached. I will try to make the next moment better than this one. I will always announce my goals to the world. However, I will never show off my achievements. Let the world praise me, and I wish I could accept them wisely and humbly.
After a grain of wheat is multiplied several times, it can turn into thousands of wheat seedlings, and then increase them several times, so dozens of times, they can support all the cities in the world. Am I not as good as a wheat grain? When I finish it, I will keep up my efforts. When the words on the scrolls come true on me, the world will marvel at my greatness.
