Classic inspirational story: don't forget the original purpose

Once upon a time, a landlord went to visit a tribal leader and wanted to ask him for a piece of land. The leader said that you are going west from here and making a mark when you go back. As long as you can come back before the sun sets, the land between the mark and the mark is yours. When the sun went down, the greedy landlord did not come back because he went too far and was exhausted on the road. There are similar people in real life. Although they are not greedy, they cannot go back.
Once, I wanted to hang a picture in the living room, ask the neighbors to help, the painting was already on the wall, and I was preparing to nail it. He said: "This is not good, it is best to nail two wooden blocks and hang the picture." I followed his advice and asked him to help find the wooden block and find the saw. Still not sawing two or three times, he said: "No, this saw is not fast, you have to grind it."
His family has a sickle. So he dropped the saw and took the sickle. The sickle was brought in, and he found that he had to give the sickle a handle before using the sickle. In order to give the sickle a handle, he picked up the axe and went to the bushes on the campus to find a small tree. When he was about to cut trees, he found out that my rusted axe could not be used. It must be ground.
After the sharpening stone was found, he found that to fix the old axe and fix the sharpening stone, he had to make a few fixed whetstones. For this, he went to the school to find a carpenter. Said that the carpenter has a ready-made. However, this trip, I never saw him back, of course, the painting, I still hang it on the wall with a nail. When I saw him again in the afternoon, it was on the street. He is helping the carpenter to carry a heavy saw from the hardware shop.
There are many such people in life. They think that to do this well, they must do the previous thing. To do the previous thing, we must do something more. They went upstream and returned to zero until they had forgotten the original purpose. This kind of person seems to be busy, from the morning to the night a bitter look. In fact, they don't know what they are busy with.
In the journey of life, after each paragraph, you may want to look back and see if you can walk back before the sun sets; or simply stop, think for a moment, ask: Who am I? Where do I go? What am I going to do? This may be a bit more concise, not going too far and losing yourself.
