"怠けることは死への近道であり、勤勉であることは生きる道です。愚かな人々は怠け者であり、賢い人々は勤勉です。"
— Buddha
Simplified Meaning:
Working hard and staying busy leads to a better, more fulfilling life, while being lazy and not doing anything leads to a wasted life. For example, consider two students. One always studies, does their homework, and is active in class. The other skips studying, doesn't do their homework, and spends most of the time playing games. The hardworking student learns more and gets good grades, which opens up opportunities for further education and a good job. The lazy student falls behind, struggles to find good opportunities, and might face difficulties in life. Being diligent, or hardworking, helps you grow, succeed, and live a meaningful life, whereas idleness, or laziness, can lead to failure and missed opportunities. By choosing to be diligent, you can achieve your goals and have a more rewarding life.
