Admit it, your so-called "effort" is actually a cheap anesthetic.\n\nWorking 996 every day, staying up late to revise PPTs, convincing yourself you're amazing. You think this is progress, this is fighting spirit. But in the eyes of experts, this is called "tactical cover"—you're just using extreme diligence with your hands and feet to hide the laziness of your brain in strategy.\n\nThe Titanic is about to sink, and you're still desperately polishing the deck, trying to make it shinier than anyone else.
