A gentleman's journey is quiet to cultivate one's morality, and frugal to cultivate one's morality. Not being indifferent, sober and quiet is not Zhuge Liang's commandment.
So far away. You must be quiet before you can study. If you don't learn, you can't be versatile, and if you don't want to learn, you can't succeed. Slow can't have vitality, and risk can't have sex. Time goes by, meaning goes by, and then becomes withered, not meeting the world, and staying in a poor house sadly. What will happen? -This article is selected from Zhuge Liang Collection. (The title was added by later generations)

People with high moral character and both ability and political integrity cultivate their body and mind by inner peace and concentration, and cultivate their moral character by frugal style. Without worldly fame and fortune, you can't define your ambitions, and without physical and mental peace, you can't realize your lofty ideals. You must concentrate on your studies, and you must study hard to increase your talents. If you don't study hard, you can't increase your intelligence. If you don't have a clear ambition, you can't achieve anything in your study. Excessive enjoyment and laziness can't make progress, and frivolous impatience can't cultivate temperament. Over time, the will will wear away with the passage of time, and finally it will be as useless to society as dead leaves. How can you stay in a broken house and sigh sadly? (Poor Lu can also be solved as an empty mind. )
People with moral cultivation practice like this: (gentleman's journey) They make themselves perfect through meditation, reflection and vigilance. Cultivate noble character with thrift. There is no other way to make your ambition clear and firm except to be pure and indifferent to fame and fortune. In order to realize their lofty ideals, there is no other way to study hard for a long time except peace and tranquility. If you want to learn real knowledge, you must live a stable life and let your body and mind concentrate on research and discussion in peace. People's talents must be accumulated from continuous learning. There is no other way to make a person's talents grow, broaden and develop except to study hard. There is no other way to make progress and success in your study except perseverance. If you are hedonistic and lazy, you can't encourage your mind to cheer up and make continuous progress. You can't be energetic if you are slow. You can't cultivate your nature and make your character noble if you are reckless and rash. You can't cure recklessness. ) If the years go by and the will is wasted day by day, (Time goes by, meaning goes by day) it will fade to ashes like an aging leaf and become a useless person. Then they will become useless. Such people are useless to society, most of them can't integrate into society, and most of them can only be trapped in their poor homes sadly. (What will happen? )
