"大多数人失败而不是成功的原因是,他们为了一时的想要放弃了最想要的东西。"
— Napoleon Bonaparte
Simplified Meaning:
People often fail because they choose to satisfy their short-term desires instead of sticking to their long-term goals. Imagine you're saving money to buy a new computer, but you keep spending small amounts on snacks or movies. Each time you choose a snack or movie, you're trading your future computer for a momentary pleasure. In the long run, these small distractions prevent you from reaching your bigger goal. Success typically requires patience and resisting the urge for immediate rewards. To achieve what you truly want, focus on the bigger picture and make daily choices that align with your main objective.
