Mohism -> Mozi -> Book 1 -> Self-cultivation -> 4

志不强者智不达，	His wisdom will not be far-reaching whose purpose is not firm.
言不信者行不果。	His action will not be effective whose promises are not kept.
据财不能以分人者，不足与友。	He who will not share his possessions with others is not worthy to be a friend.
守道不笃，	And he who does not stand firm on principles
偏物不博，辩是非不察者，	and has neither wide knowledge nor penetrating judgment,
不足与游。	is not worthy to be a companion.
本不固者末必几，	Just as a weak trunk will have but small branches,
雄而不修者，其后必惰，	so, mere bravery without cultivation will result in dissipation.
原浊者流不清，	And just as a dirty source will issue in an impure stream,
行不信者名必秏¹。	so unfaithful conduct will unfavourably affect one's fame.
名不徒生而誉不自长，	For, fame does not spring up out of nothing, nor does praise grow by itself.
功成名遂，名誉不可虚假，反之身者也。	Fame follows upon success and is not obtainable by hypocrisy.
务言而缓行，虽辩必不听。	He will not be listened to who talks much but is slow in action, even though he is discerning.
多力而伐功，虽劳必不图。	He will not accomplish anything, who is capable but likes to boast of his feats, even though he drudges.
慧者心辩而不繁说，	The wise discerns all in his mind but speaks simply,
多力而不伐功，	and he is capable but does not boast of his deeds.
此以名誉扬天下。	And, so his name is exalted the world over.
言无务为多而务为智，无务为文而务为察。	In speech, not quantity but ingenuity, not eloquence but insight, should be cultivated.
故彼智无察，	If one is not wise and without insight,
在身而情，	breeding only dissipation in one's personality,
反其路者也。	this is just the contrary of what should be cultivated.
善无主于心者不留，	Any virtue that does not spring from the heart will not remain
行莫辩于身者不立。	and any (result of) action that is not aimed at by one's self will not stay.
名不可简而成也，	There is no short cut to fame
誉不可巧而立也，	and there is no trick to praise.
君子以身戴行者也。	The superior man regards his body but as the vehicle for his character.
思利寻焉，忘名忽焉，可以为士于天下者，未尝有也。	None who places much importance on personal gains but lightly sacrifices his fame has ever become a gentleman in the world.
