What is the full text of a gentleman's self-cultivation journey?
Original: A gentleman's journey is to cultivate one's morality by quietness and frugality. Not indifferent to pure heart, not quiet and far-reaching. If you study quietly, you must study. If you don't learn, you won't learn widely. If you have no ambition, you won't succeed. If you are slow, you can't be energetic, and if you are dangerous, you can't be radical. Time goes by, meaning goes by, and then it becomes withered. If you don't pick up a little more, you will stay in poverty sadly. What will happen?

The character of a gentleman is to eliminate distractions and interference, to cultivate body and mind with quietness and singleness, and to cultivate morality with thrift. If you can't be calm in your heart, don't aspire to fame and fortune, you can't define your ambition, and if you can't be quiet and single-minded, you can't achieve your lofty goal. Learning must be calm and single-minded, and talent comes from learning. If you don't study, you won't grow up brilliant, if you don't aspire to learn something, if you indulge in modernity, you won't inspire your spirit, and if you are frivolous and impetuous, you won't cultivate your temperament. Age passes quickly with time, will disappears with time, and finally withers and decays. Most of them have no contribution to society, so they can only sit in that broken house sadly. How could they regret it at that time?
