There is a young man, like many young people, who dreams of success. To this end, he made various attempts, but all ended in failure. He was very depressed. One day he ran to the seaside and asked his father. My father is an old sailor. Pointing to the sea, pointing to countless ships docked at the seaside and ships coming and going, he said meaningfully to his son, "If you don't wander around, if you want ships to come automatically, you must build your own pier." The young man listened to his father for a long time. After that, he stopped trying everywhere, but settled down to study hard. Later, he not only went to college, but also became an enviable postdoctoral fellow. Many companies often call, hoping that he can join, and the salary offered is surprisingly high. He finally achieved something in his ideal job.
Life is so interesting. The road of life seems tortuous, but it is not. Instead of finding a boat to sit around, build your own pier. Why worry about no boats coming and going?
Building your own wharf has two meanings. One is to constantly learn knowledge, enrich one's heart, enhance one's energy, build one's profound knowledge base and improve one's status. Second, the self-built external wharf will attract the surrounding "ships" to dock and let others automatically serve themselves.
Knowledge is power. The more knowledge a person has, the richer his talents will be and the more fulfilling his life will be.
If a person can get rid of impetuousness, stabilize his inner world, study hard, temper himself, build his profound knowledge base and give full play to his wisdom, he is not afraid that he will not find his position, that no one will find himself, and that he will not meet his talents. Instead of trying to run in everywhere, it is better to establish your own knowledge base, make use of your own advantages in knowledge and talent, stand higher and see farther, and work hard for the career goals that suit you best.
The bigger and deeper a person's knowledge base, the more his wisdom can be brought into play, and the greater his energy. Just like the higher the quality of the dock, the greater the throughput, and more and more ships will dock there.
Lu You, a poet in the Song Dynasty, loved reading all his life. In his room, books are packed in cabinets, piled on tables and spread on beds. He sleeps with a book on his pillow. He left more than 9,000 poems to later generations, and was a famous patriotic poet in China. In order to write Das Kapital, Marx went to the library to look up information every day, leaving two deep footprints under his seat.
Of course, building your own knowledge base is a huge project. It requires you to invest a lot of time and energy to form a knowledge base suitable for you to play over time. According to the theory of knowledge engineering, available knowledge generally goes through four processes: collection, modeling, combination and refining, so knowledge formation has the habit of learning. Taking creation as an example, creative articles can be formed through interaction from information collection, outline framework, processing combination to stylistic retouching.
In this way, no matter what our present situation is, it will be of great help to our career if we can always pay attention to learning and constantly acquire valuable knowledge. Madden, a successful scholar, wrote in "A Lesson to Change Millions of Lives": "A young man with a bright future pays attention to honing his working ability anytime and anywhere and wants to do everything better than others. He carefully observes and studies everything he touches, and he must figure out what is important. He also seizes learning opportunities anytime and anywhere and cherishes all learning opportunities related to his future. For him, accumulating knowledge is more important than accumulating money. He always pays attention to learning the methods and skills of doing things. He also thinks it is necessary to learn some small things well, and carefully try to figure out and explore the tricks of any way of doing things. If he learns everything, his inner wealth will be countless times higher than his limited salary. " In life, many people often complain that their wages are too low and their luck is bad, but they don't know that they are actually in a big campus where they can acquire knowledge and accumulate experience. The people we meet, the things we get in touch with and the experience we get every day are the best learning materials in this school. As long as we can open our eyes and ears, we can learn useful knowledge anytime and anywhere.
No matter how humble your present position is, learning new and valuable knowledge will be of great benefit to your career. Although the salaries of small employees in some companies are meager, they work very hard and actively use various channels and leisure time to study, so as to enhance their knowledge and make positive preparations for their future job promotion or career creation.
A young man who has just entered the society must have many opportunities to learn with his status gradually improved. If he can seize these opportunities and acquire knowledge through various channels, he can make his knowledge more extensive and profound, broaden his mind and better deal with various problems.
Some smart and thoughtful young people can discover the secrets of this industry in a short time, and once the time is ripe, they can stand alone.
Benjamin Franklin liked reading since he was a child. When he dropped out of school and went home to work, he still used his spare time to teach himself. After reading the limited books at home, he used his pocket money to buy books. When he was an apprentice in a printing factory, he stayed up all night reading literature, history and philosophy. These books were lent to him by a friend who was an apprentice in a bookstore. They are all new books, and he must read them as soon as possible and return them to others cleanly. He also bought some books, the money for which was saved from the meal. To this end, he became a vegetarian and often used biscuits, bread, raisins, tarts and water to satisfy his hunger. He taught himself mathematics and four foreign languages, and practiced writing diligently. As a result, this person with only two years of primary school education was awarded master's and doctor's degrees by six or seven universities including Harvard University, Yale University, Oxford University, Edinburgh University and St Andrews University.
By establishing your own knowledge base and your own internal dock, you can successfully complete your work, stay in its position and make a difference. When the conditions are ripe, you can build foreign docks, build nests to attract phoenix, attract talents, let go of your hands and feet, and start a career. Many successful people start their own businesses first, build nests to attract phoenix, let the world's talents serve them, and * * * holds the banner of entrepreneurship.
In 2006, Forbes magazine listed Li Shufu, chairman of Geely Group, as the 32nd richest man in Chinese mainland, and ranked 49th again in 200 1. Li Shufu was born in a peasant family in Taizhou, Zhejiang Province, ranking the third among the four brothers. After graduating from high school, he started a very small business-opening a photo studio. How did he stand out from ordinary people and become a billionaire? Li Shufu's success is not only daring and competitive, but also because he is good at building his own wharf, building nests and attracting phoenix, and giving full play to his talents.
In terms of recruiting people, Li Shufu believes that talents can't manage it, and people can't manage it. Talents should be attracted by the charm of enterprises and the good conditions that enterprises can provide for talents. In short, they should rely on their own solid talent "dock".
In 2006, Li Shufu plans to develop luxury scooters. At the beginning of my career, I was short of funds, the factory was not built, and the technicians didn't come. However, Li Shufu invested more than 40 million yuan to build an expert building and a staff dormitory with great fanfare. He also set up a staff canteen to let thousands of employees eat for free. At that time, many people thought his actions were ridiculous.
Practice has proved that this move is very effective. Human nature is profit-seeking, and talents are no exception. Affordability has attracted engineers and technicians from more than ten provinces and cities such as Sichuan, Anhui and Jiangxi, and they have a comfortable home as soon as they come here. More than 2500 people have been placed in the expert building and staff dormitory. These people have made great contributions to Li Shufu's struggle to the world today.
Li Shufu also invested hundreds of millions of yuan to run a university. The purpose of his doing this is to establish a special "workshop" to produce talents for tomorrow's enterprises and cultivate outstanding talents. And Li Shufu's move to run a university was not a temporary success. Li Shufu's consistent thinking is to firmly build his own wharf, from the vocational and technical school founded by 1993, to the establishment of Geely College and Geely Industrial Research Institute with Zhejiang University of Technology, and then to Zhejiang Institute of Economics and Management.
Li Shufu also invested heavily in establishing an international and open institution of higher learning, geely university, in the form of joint venture, to cultivate outstanding talents for Geely enterprises and society.
Li Shufu's good and solid wharf has touched countless talents and attracted them to Geely Group to give full play to their respective strengths for the future of Geely Group.
In short, in our life, we should study hard enough knowledge and accumulate enough strength. We saw a big tree on the high mountain. The mountains gave it rich nutrients, the hills gave it fertile soil, the clouds gave it plenty of rain, and countless cycles of the four seasons accumulated rich nutrients around its huge roots, all of which provided energy for its growth.
A small sapling, as long as it grows into a towering tree, can keep the footsteps of pedestrians and give them a shade at noon; Can attract many birds to make trouble, and even attract phoenix to play musical instruments, and gradually form their own climate and own their own world. Similarly, in order to enrich our lives, do our own things well and achieve our own career, we should consciously and consciously build our own docks and achieve rich treasures suitable for our lives.
