Even developed skill can become a dead end if the direction is wrong.

THE ORIGINAL SIGN · 籤文

三冬足,文藝精,到頭處,亦成冰,急急回首,勿誤前程。

ENGLISH READING

After three winters, literary skill becomes refined; yet at the final point it may still turn to ice. Turn back urgently and do not delay the road ahead.

INTERPRETATION

Substantial effort and refinement do not guarantee that the current path remains useful; persistence can become rigidity.

GUIDANCE

Reassess the direction promptly and change course if the skill no longer serves the future.

繁體中文一句話
