Wilbur spent an hour making a fishing rod. He tossed the bait into the water, and soon, there was movement on his float. Wilbur
tugged on the rod and heard a loud snap. His fishing rod was snapped in half.
"You have to put effort into everything you do, otherwise, nothing will be successful."
Wilbur went to look for fishing rod materials again. He spent a day crafting a fishing rod instead. It was dark outside when he
looked up again. He was not in a hurry to fish, and he meditated in his room instead.

The old man saw that Wilbur was meditating without a hurry, so he nodded and felt very glad. The next morning, Wilbur followed
the old man to Lake Brant to fish.
Wilbur waited for two hours. Finally, the float moved. A carp that was around two kilograms was dragged out of the water. Wilbur
bent down to grab the carp, but it was very slippery. Wilbur tried over ten times, but he still could not grab hold of the fish.
In the end, he got too frustrated and tossed the carp back into the water.
The old man said, "You gave up on a good opportunity, so you have to wait for another one. It's your own fault for making
mistakes. That has nothing to do with the carp."
"lI understand. That carp wasn't big enough. I'll fish for a bigger one. Just wait and see, sir."
The old man did not speak. Wilbur kept waiting until the late afternoon, and he caught a carp around three kilograms. He seized
the chance to keep practicing, but he could not do so until it was dark outside.

Wilbur went on practicing for two weeks. One day, he finally grabbed a carp around four kilograms in the afternoon.
"Sir, look! | managed to grab the carp!"
The old man glanced at Wilbur and put away his fishing rod. He said, "Good, nicely done. It looks like you're agile enough now. Let's
