Features: The teacher asked each student to make a handmade craft. Little Einstein planned to make a small stool. One day. Due to lack of experience, the small stool made by Einstein wobbled and couldn't sit stably at all. But he didn't lose heart and decided to make another one. The next day, Einstein made another one, but it was still not sturdy enough. On the third day, he made the third small stool more carefully and handed it to the teacher. The teacher didn't like the small stool, but Einstein didn't feel sad. She said very seriously: Although this small stool is not very good-looking, it is the best one among the three small stools I made! It was precisely because of this spirit of constantly pursuing improvement that Einstein achieved great success in his later career and became one of the greatest scientists of the 20th century. Learning is a gradual process. As long as you make a little progress every day, you are sure to achieve good results.
