A successful research institute in the United States once followed 100 young people for a long time until they reached the age of 65. It turns out that only one person has money, five people have financial security, and the other 94 people are in poor conditions. They are poor in their later years and should be regarded as losers. The reason why these 94 people are poor in their later years is not that they didn't work hard enough when they were young, mainly because they didn't choose a clear goal.

1 1, always get the ticket.

There is a person who travels a lot and often can't buy the right ticket. But no matter the distance, no matter how crowded the bus is, he can always find a seat. His method is actually very simple, that is, patiently looking for one car after another. This method doesn't sound brilliant, but it does work. Every time he is going to walk from the first car to the last car, but he doesn't have to walk to the end every time. He will find an empty seat. He said that this is because not many passengers are so persistent in finding seats. Often there are some seats left in the carriage where he sits, but at the junction of the aisles and carriages of other carriages, it is actually very crowded. He said that most passengers are easily confused by the superficial phenomenon of one or two cars being crowded and will not think about it. In dozens of stations, there are many opportunities to provide seats in the flow of people from more than a dozen doors of the train. Even if I thought about it, I didn't have the patience to find it Most people are easily satisfied with a small foothold in front of them, and some people think it is not cost-effective to squeeze one or two seats with their bags on their backs. They are also worried that if they can't find a seat, they won't even have a place to stand back. Just like some people who are content with the status quo and afraid of failure, they can only stay at the starting point without success. Most of these passengers who are unwilling to take the initiative to find seats can only stand in the initial position when they get on the bus until they get off.

You mean the stone? It has been put into the present since your grandfather's time. So big, I don't know when to dig. If you have nothing to do but dig stones, you might as well walk carefully and exercise your reaction ability. ? After a few years, this big stone was left to the next generation. At that time, my son married a daughter-in-law and became a father. One day the daughter-in-law said angrily:?

A young man grabbed the hammer, tore himself apart, swung the sledgehammer and threw it at the hanging iron ball with all his strength. There was a deafening noise and the ball hung still. He hit the ball with a sledgehammer one after another, and soon he was out of breath. The other man, not showing weakness, picked up a sledgehammer and jingled the hanging iron ball, but the iron ball remained motionless. The shouting gradually disappeared from the audience, and the audience seemed to feel useless, just waiting for the old man to explain. Quietly returned to the venue, the old man took out a small hammer from his coat pocket, and then seriously faced the huge iron ball. He aimed a small hammer at the iron ball? Dong? Knock once, then pause, then use a small hammer? Dong? Someone knocked at the door. People look at it strangely. Is the old man like that? Dong? Knock once, then pause and do it continuously.

Spring has arrived, the gentle wind is blowing this sleeping land, and everything begins to recover. At this time, two seeds woke up, and they were lying in fertile soil looking forward to their future.

The first seed said: I must work hard to grow! I want to take root and let life thrive in the soil! I want it? Get ahead? Let the stems and leaves sway with the wind to celebrate the arrival of spring! I also want to bloom beautiful flowers and bear rich fruits, add a refreshing fragrance to this land and provide intoxicating fruits for people. In this way, I can not only feel the warmth of spring shining on my face, but also feel the joy of falling petals in the morning dew and the joy of mature life! ?

The second seed said with a frown and trembling. I am not as brave as you! If I take root down, I may encounter hard stones; If I drill hard, I may hurt my fragile stem; If I grow buds, I won't be eaten by snails; If I bloom beautiful flowers, I am afraid that the children will uproot me when they see them; If I bear fruit, I'm afraid I'll be secretly picked by people who get it for nothing. I'd better wait until the situation is safer before making plans! ? So it continues to curl up in the soil that it thinks is very safe. A few days later, a hen was foraging in the yard, and it quietly entered the hen's stomach. The first seed has been growing hard, during which it was injured, frozen, cried, laughed, trampled and bitten by snails. But it has never forgotten its lofty dream. Whenever the cold night strikes and everything is silent, it will feel an irresistible loneliness and desolation from time to time, but it always says to itself over and over again: I can't give up, and I won't give up!

18, across the cornfield

In the fields, the fresh wind is blowing slowly. In front of your eyes is a cornfield full of fruits, and at the same time, there is a cornfield with countless traps, large and small.

Today, you will cross it.

You and your opponent are going to have an interesting game: see who crosses the cornfield first to reach the mysterious destination, and at the same time, he has the most corn in his hand.

In other words, you have to cross the cornfield faster than others, have more corn in your hand, and keep yourself safe at all times. Corn field game? Speed, efficiency and safety are the three elements of survival.

You can make more than 10,000 choices, and even the best mathematician can't calculate the best ratio among them. Maybe there is no such formula in the world. Different states will produce different results, and each best way will change due to changes in objective environment and conditions. The process of crossing the cornfield is the process of entrepreneurial decision-making, and N choices will produce N operating states and results.

The charm of crossing is here. Why did you cross the cornfield?

When you start a new competition in life and turn over a new page in your career, have you ever seriously faced this problem? Is this question really that important? String 8

One year, a group of high-spirited children graduated from Harvard University in the United States, and they were about to start crossing their cornfields. Their intelligence, education and environmental conditions are similar. Before leaving school, Harvard investigated their life goals. The result is this:

27% people have no goals;

60% people have vague goals;

10% people have clear but relatively short-term goals;

3% people have clear long-term goals.

For the next 25 years, they crossed the corn fields.

Twenty-five years later, Harvard conducted a follow-up survey on this group of students again. The result is this:

3% of the people, in the past 25 years, they have made unremitting efforts in one direction, and almost all of them have become successful people in all walks of life, including industry leaders and social elites.

65,438+00% people have achieved their short-term goals and become professionals in various fields, most of whom live in the upper and middle classes of society.

60% people live and work in peace and contentment, with no special achievements, and almost all of them live in the middle and lower classes of society.

The remaining 27% people have no goals in life, and their lives are very unsatisfactory. They often complain about others, society and this? Refuse to give them a chance? This world.

In fact, the only difference between them is that 25 years ago, some of them knew why they crossed the cornfield, some didn't know or were not very clear.

0+0+0+0+0+0+ 1+0+0+0+0= 1 1+ 1+ 1+ 1+ 1+ 1+0+ 1+ 1+ 1=9

He handed me the newspaper. I only took one look and said grumpily:? You are so boring. Of course, 0+0 equals 0. If you add dark, it is still equal to 0, 1+ 1 = 2, which even a 3-year-old child knows! ? I glanced at him. Bored people do these shameless things. You don't want me to be Chen Jingrun, Hua, Math, and then what? Goldbach conjecture? Right? ? I casually threw him the note. He just smiled, then handed me the note and said, look carefully, don't treat it as a simple mathematical equation. ? I looked at it, but I still couldn't figure out the mystery, so I shook my head and said, I still don't understand, just say it! ? He smiled again. Actually, this is very simple. I remind you that the number 0 on the left of the equal sign represents fantasy, 1 represents hard work, and the number on the right of the equal sign represents your possible future achievements or status. I haven't seen you for several days. How can you be so pedantic? ? String 1
