“Work. Keep digging your well. Water is there somewhere.”

Rumi

Simplified Meaning:

When you're working hard towards a goal, it may feel like you're not getting anywhere. But, just like digging a well to find water, if you keep at it, you'll eventually achieve what you want. Imagine a farmer who wants to access groundwater for his crops. He starts digging and it takes time, effort, and patience. He might not find water right away, but every day he digs a bit more, and eventually, he hits water. This means that persistence and continuous effort will lead to success, even if it's not immediately clear. By staying persistent and not giving up, you can reach your goals, just like the farmer finds water by continually digging.
