Origin Story
从前，有个年轻人名叫张华，他自小聪明好学，但性格却十分心浮气盛。一次，他参加县里举办的书法比赛，本来很有希望获奖，但他却因为临近比赛时心急如焚，写字时过于着急，结果发挥失常，名落孙山。他十分沮丧，反省自己，才明白心浮气盛不仅影响了自己的学习和生活，也阻碍了自己取得成功。从此，他开始认真学习，调整心态，逐渐变得沉稳冷静，最终在之后取得很大的成功。
Once upon a time, there was a young man named Zhang Hua. He was intelligent and studious since childhood, but his personality was very impetuous. Once, he participated in a calligraphy competition held in the county. He was originally very hopeful of winning an award, but because he was very anxious as the competition approached, he became too hasty when writing, resulting in an abnormal performance, and he failed to win any prize. He was very frustrated and reflected on himself before he realized that being impetuous not only affected his studies and life, but also hindered his success. From then on, he began to study hard, adjust his mentality, gradually became calm and composed, and finally achieved great success later.
