Classic Inspirational Story 2: The Story of the Pathway

Inspirational heart:
This is the story of the foreign version of Yugong Yishan. We are saddened by the lack of foresight for many people. But the reality makes us have to admit that most people live in a world of "bucketing", and only a small number of people dare to dream of building a pathway. who are you? Is the bucket builder still a channel builder?
In 1801, there were two young people, one named Bobolo and one called Bruno. They were cousins ​​and all were ambitious. They live in a village in Italy.
The two young people are good partners since childhood. They all have ambitious dreams.
They often talk endlessly, and in a certain way, one day, they can become the richest person in the village. They are smart and hardworking, all they need is an opportunity.
One day, the opportunity is coming. The village decided to hire two people to transport the water from the nearby river to the reservoir in the village square. The village chief handed the job to Boboro and Bruno.
Two people each grabbed two buckets and rushed to the river to start their hard work. At the end of the day, they filled the reservoir in the village square. The village chief pays them a penny per barrel of water.
"Our dreams have finally come true!" Bruno shouted. "I can't believe our good fortune."
But Bobello did not think so.
His back was sore and painful, and the hand used to lift the heavy bucket also bubbled. He is afraid to get up to the same job every morning. So he vowed to come up with a better way to transport the water from the river to the village.
"Bruno, I have a plan," the next morning, when they grabbed the bucket and rushed to the river, Bobopol said, "A bucket of water is only paid for 1 cent, but it is so hard to lift water back and forth. We might as well build a pathway to bring water from the river into the village."
Bruno stunned.
"A path? Who heard of such a thing? Bruno shouted loudly, 'Berboro, we have a great job. I can lift 100 barrels a day, one day is 1 yuan! I am already The rich! After a week, I can buy new shoes. After a month, I can buy a cow. After 6 months, I can build a new house. We have the best job in the town. We don't have to worry about it in this life! Give up your path fantasy."
Berbero is not an easy-going person. He patiently explained the plan to his best friend, but unfortunately he could not change Bruno's thoughts. So Pebolo decided that even if he had to implement the project alone, he would spend part of the day's time on the bucket and use his other part of the time and the time of the week to build his path. He knows how difficult it is to dig a passage in a rocky, hard soil. Because its salary is paid according to the number of barrels shipped. He knows that at the beginning, his income will fall. He also knows that to wait for a year or two, his path can produce considerable benefits. Ben Pablo believes that his dream will come true, so he did his best to do it.
Soon, Bruno and other villagers began to laugh at Bobolo, calling him "the path builder Bobolo." Bruno earned twice as much money as Bobolo, and often showed off his new things to Berbero. He bought a donkey with a brand new saddle and squatted on the two floors of his new cover.
He also bought shiny new clothes and ate delicious food in the restaurant. The villager respectfully called him Mr. Bruno. He often sits in a bar, pays for everyone to drink, and people laugh loudly for the jokes he tells.
When Bruno was not comfortable in the hammock at night and in the week, Bobolo continued to dig his path. In the first few months, Plato's efforts did not make much progress. He worked very hard - harder than Bruno's work, because Berbero was still working at night and week.
But Bobolo constantly reminds himself that the dream of achieving tomorrow is built on today's sacrifice. Day by day, he continued to dig, only one inch at a time.
1 inch and 1 inch... becomes 1 foot. He repeated the sentence as he waved the chisel and into the rocky hard soil. 1 inch and 1 inch... becomes 1 foot, then 10 feet, ... 20 feet... 100 feet...
“Short-term pain brings long-term returns.” When the exhausted Berbero stumbles back to his humble cottage after the daily work, he always reminds himself. He measures the effectiveness of his work by setting goals for each day. He has always insisted on this, because he knows that one day, the return will be greater than the effort at this time.
