Demosthenes was a famous orator in ancient Greece, but he was born with a stutter, a weak voice and a bad habit of shrugging his shoulders. In the eyes of ordinary people, he seems to have no talent as an orator, that is, he has no cultivation as an orator. But becoming an orator was Demosthenes's childhood dream, and he made painstaking efforts to improve his self-cultivation as an orator. In order to practice pronunciation and get rid of shortness of breath, he speaks with a stone in his mouth and recites poems against the sea breeze; In order to get rid of the bad habit of shrugging, he hung two swords above his shoulders. Finally, his self-cultivation as an orator has been improved, and his speaking ability has also been improved. Demosthenes finally became an excellent speaker. Cultivation and ability complement each other. Self-cultivation means learning to improve our ability, so self-cultivation helps us improve our ability.
