The ancient poem about overcoming setbacks is as follows:
The journey is difficult to get through
Li Bai of the Tang Dynasty
Ten thousand gold cups of wine fight, jade plates of treasures are shameful Thousands of dollars.
I stopped eating and threw chopsticks. I drew my sword and looked around at a loss.
If you want to cross the Yellow River, which is blocked by ice, you will have to climb the snow-covered mountains of Taihang.
I was fishing on the Bixi River in my spare time, and suddenly I was riding a boat and dreaming of the sun.
The journey is difficult, the journey is difficult, and there are many divergent paths, but now I am at peace.
There will be times when the wind blows and the waves break, and the cloud sails are hung directly to help the sea.
Notes: "The Road Is Difficult": The ancient Yuefu "Zaqu Song Ci" is named after its content, which mostly describes the difficult road in society and the sadness of parting. Fishing in the Bixi River: "Historical Records: Qi Taigong Family" records that Lu Shang fished by the Wei River when he was old. Later, he met Xi Bo Jichang (King Wen of Zhou) and was reused. Dreaming about the sun: Legend has it that when Yi Yin was about to be recruited by Chengtang, he dreamed of taking a boat and passing by the sun and the moon. Changing the wind and breaking the waves: The "Song Book·Zongtai Biography" says that Zongtou's uncle asked him what his ambition was, and Zongtai said: "I would like to ride the long wind and break the waves of thousands of miles." Later generations used "riding the wind and the waves" as a metaphor to express political ambitions.
