Confucius and Cicadas(蝉)
One day, Confucius led his students to the State of Chu. When crossing through a large forest, they saw an old man standing under a tree, catching cicadas with a bamboo stick. Confucius said, " You must have some special skills. "
"That's right!" the old man answered. "Cicadas are clever little insects. So people who want to catch cicadas must train their hands to hold a bamboo stick without shaking. If you can place three small balls on top of the bamboo stick without falling off, you might be able to catch cicadas. When five small balls are placed on top without falling off, catching cicadas is as easy as picking a ball up from the ground. "
He then added, "But that is not enough. Right now, I am standing under the tree like part of the tree, with my arm reaching out like part of a dry branch. When I am catching cicadas, I only watch the cicadas' wings. No matter what happens, I will focus on the wings. "
Hearing this, Confucius turned to his students and said, "No matter what you do, you can only succeed if you love what you are doing and pay enough attention to it. This is what this old man has taught us. "
