成功需要耐心，不能总是急功近利。

Chénggōng xūyào nàixīn, bùnéng zǒngshì jí gōng jìn lì.

Success requires patience; one cannot always be eager for quick success.

如果只顾眼前利益，太急功近利，往往会失去长远的发展机会。

Rúguǒ zhǐ gù yǎnqián lìyì, tài jígōngjìnlì, wǎngwǎng huì shīqù chángyuǎn de fāzhǎn jīhuì.

If you only care about immediate benefits and are too eager for quick success, you often lose long-term development opportunities.

做学问不能急功近利，要踏踏实实地研究。

Zuò xuéwen bùnéng jígōngjìnlì, yào tātāshíshí de yánjiū.

One must not be shortsighted and only seek quick success in scholarship, but should study steadily.
