Definition

欲速则不达:

Literally means:

more haste, less speed

Actually means:

欲, expect; 速, soon; 达, reach the goal.

The idiom means that a goal is hard to obtain if you are over eager for it. It implies the advice to be patient.

欲,希望;速,很快;达,达到目的。

欲速则不达,一个劲地求快,反而很难达到目的。含有做事不能过于着急,要有耐心,否则往往做不成的意味。

Example

Used as predicate, object or as a minor sentence. (作谓语、宾语、小句)

Learning there is no shortcut, can not rush to success, can only learn little by little, a day to learn a lot of content, the speed is not up to, but can not remember.
