Deep and insightful article! What is the essence of making money?
1. At a drinking party, a big brother who earns over 100 million a year shared that when I truly understood the meaning of the following two sentences, the goal of earning tens of millions a year no longer seemed distant.#
The first sentence is:
To make a living through physical labor, one must stay true to their role;
To earn money through mental effort, one must be flexible and adaptable;
To invest with capital (especially in the cryptocurrency or stock market), one must be decisive and ruthless;
To profit from resources, one should be tactful and worldly;
To develop with manpower, one must have an open mind.
Just as I fell into contemplation, the big brother immediately stated another sentence, which is the core thinking of the wealthy.
The big brother emphasized: For ordinary people, having ten percent of resources in hand is necessary to dare to attempt ten percent of things.
2. In contrast, the mindset of the wealthy is completely different; they first lock in their goals and then match the necessary resources.#
As long as they adhere to this mindset, there is almost nothing that cannot be accomplished. If they lack personnel, they recruit talent; if they lack funds, they seek financing and loans. Under this logic, enemies can also cooperate, and rivals can achieve win-win situations. The wealthy are especially skilled at breaking down goals, decomposing grand visions into countless small action points, and then refining them layer by layer. Ultimately, no matter how daunting the goal, execution becomes effortless. At the same time, the wealthy allocate resources precisely for each action point, thus unleashing powerful execution capabilities.
3. Seeing that I was still pondering, the big brother calmly added. The fundamental difference between the wealthy and ordinary people is that ordinary people are always in a state of preparation.#
When you seek cooperation from ordinary people, they often excuse themselves with reasons like insufficient connections, lack of funds, or timing not being right. In their perception, everything must be ready to succeed. In contrast, the wealthy are always in action mode, just like the ancient saying "nurturing soldiers for a thousand days, using them for a moment"; they integrate resources and solve problems in practice. How can ordinary people, who only talk about strategies, compete with action-oriented wealthy individuals? This mindset is unrelated to current wealth; once mastered, wealth will eventually come.
4. Wealth is not accumulated slowly over a lifetime, but rather seizing opportunities to earn what others make in a lifetime within two to three years.#
Therefore, if you believe that now is a golden period for making money, remind yourself not to pause. Because the next opportunity may be far off, and once missed, it may never come again.
5. The cost of time is the highest price; if you can use money to hire someone to learn, then decisively outsource;#
If you can solve professional problems with money, never seek unnecessary troubles. Handling matters you are not good at personally is foolish. Entrepreneurs who become wealthy are not jack-of-all-trades.
6. Avoid interacting with people of different frequencies; if you cannot make decisive decisions, you will be swayed by others.#
If you find yourself in an unfavorable environment, be sure to break away from your current circle. Look only upward, benchmark against higher goals, and remember not to lower your head or look level; otherwise, you may easily become complacent or even regress. Trust me, this will not only help you avoid neck problems but also allow you to confront the gap and strive to catch up.
7. Never care about others' evaluations.#
Remember, anyone, especially those unrelated, often deliberately belittles and obstructs your happiness, even attacking out of jealousy. These will only become shackles on your soul. If you overly care about these people, you are bound to fail. The sage Wang Yangming has long explained: the key to controlling emotions lies in not taking them seriously. Overly focusing on others' opinions is destined for failure and entrapment in an inner prison. Know that everything in the world, except for life and death, is trivial; you cannot please everyone, and the worst aspect of human nature is the inability to tolerate others' success.
8. Never feel inferior, and never consider yourself lesser than others.#
Others' wealth has nothing to do with you. Many people blindly worship pretenders, but true wealthy individuals do not judge by clothing, vehicles, or food, but by their social circles. If the circle is high-end, 90% are strong; if only a flashy appearance and so-called luxury cars remain, it is merely a facade, with empty pockets. You need not feel inferior; you are always unique.
9. Life is limited.#
Ask yourself, how old are you this year? Unhappy matters often last only a few seconds but can affect your mood for a long time; is it worth it? Do you remember July 5, 2013, or March 26, 2019, at 7:30 PM? Do you remember who you argued with? You have long forgotten, even trivial matters from three years ago are unclear. You may have been angry at the time, but seek happiness. Looking at the long term, do not let one matter trouble you; that is merely mental exhaustion. When you are old, you will only regret what you did not do, not what you did. Therefore, enjoy life in a timely manner, making it meaningful. Optimism is seeing through the essence of life; even with unpleasant people, one still loves life. Life is inherently full of challenges; whether you are happy or not, it is just another day.
10. Doing business requires precise vision and decisive courage.#
Yahoo's Filo and Yang Zhiyuan were obsessed with sumo wrestling, especially enjoying the suffocating feeling of one side crushing the other. Bill Gates and Yang Zhiyuan both admitted: I hate failure, I only love winning in competition.
11. True strong individuals are ruthless.#
Being merciful to enemies is cruel to oneself. The historical story of "lying on the fire and tasting bitterness" serves as evidence. King Fu Chai of Wu, due to a moment of softness, gave King Gou Jian of Yue a chance to breathe, ultimately leading to the destruction of his country and his downfall.
When Fu Chai begged Gou Jian for mercy, do you think Gou Jian would forgive him? Competitors never consider win-win situations; they weave illusions in the name of "relationships," ultimately winning alone. Therefore, observe top players in the business world; they always suppress their opponents with all their might, leaving no room for a comeback!
12. How to transform into a wolf that eats sheep.#
We all know the fable of the wolf eating sheep: a wolf drinks water by the river, and downstream, a sheep is also drinking. The wolf shouts that it wants to eat the sheep, claiming that the sheep dirties the river water. The sheep argues: "You are upstream, I am downstream; how can I dirty your water?" The wolf finds another excuse: "Your ancestors dirtied the river water; you must take responsibility." In the end, the sheep becomes the wolf's meal.
Do not pity the sheep or speak up for it, and do not shed tears. Blame only its nature as a sheep, destined to be eaten. The sheep has no right to judge right from wrong, as people only believe the words of winners. Thus, the truth of life is both beautiful and cruel. I told that friend who wanted to resign the harsh truth, hoping she could survive in cruelty. To truly love someone, one must know that love is not just care; it also contains cruelty. Love without cruelty is not complete love.
When chicks cannot stand on their own, the hen will ruthlessly drive them away, even pecking at them. Only then will the chicks be forced to learn to survive.
In society, if you do not become a wolf, the fleeting happiness will eventually vanish, as everything you currently have will be taken away by the wolf pack because you are a sheep.
The law of nature is survival of the fittest, cruel yet beautiful!
13. Health is paramount.#
An economist once sharply pointed out: If you haven't made money when the economy is good, and still want to make money when the economy is bad, isn't that self-deception? Therefore, in the current economic situation, taking care of your health is crucial. Pay attention to your diet, especially for the elderly; avoid greasy foods, and limit salt and oil. Many diseases can be prevented. Smoke less or not at all, drink alcohol in moderation, ensure sleep, go to bed early and rise early, and try to sleep before midnight. Walk more, control your weight; obesity is linked to many diseases.
14. In today's fast information dissemination, interest rate differentials are nearly disappearing.#
Those seemingly easy to earn or low-risk investments are mostly traps. A gentleman does not stand under a dangerous wall; ordinary people find it hard to turn things around, and a slight misstep can lead to total loss. Therefore, investment must be extremely cautious. Remember: anyone who teaches you to make money is after your wealth.
15. Do not guarantee for others, as you cannot control the risks.#
Once something goes wrong, it could lead to bankruptcy. A friend of mine's father guaranteed for a close friend, who is now unable to repay and has gone missing, leaving all the debt on him. He was forced to sell his house and the shop he had run for twenty years, yet it was still not enough to cover the debt. Ultimately, the couple went to Guangdong to work to repay the debt, and their once happy family fell into hardship. The lesson is painful.
16. Maintain a positive mindset, build connections with higher-level people, and avoid mingling with peers.#
Focus more on your own feelings, stay away from negative individuals, and maintain a good mindset and physical and mental health; this will make you appear younger and more energetic, and reduce the likelihood of illness.
17. Stabilize your emotions.#
During economic downturns, many people's emotions become tense, from anxiety to impulsiveness; negative emotions will only worsen the situation. In the face of sudden changes, stay clear-headed, stabilize your emotions, and avoid speaking recklessly, as disasters often come from careless words. Speak less, act cautiously, avoid meddling in others' affairs, manage yourself well, and avoid disputes. If you must endure, then endure, so you can calmly face the storms.
18. The weak always live in beautiful illusions.#
A female friend of mine works diligently but is often bullied by colleagues. After long-term suppression, she wants to resign. I told her: If you are a sheep, you will be eaten by wolves wherever you go, and even played by foxes. No matter where you work, as long as you are a victim, you will inevitably encounter perpetrators. You have two choices: to be the sheep that gets eaten or to become the wolf that eats sheep.
If you do not want to be bullied, if you refuse to become a sheep, you must understand the mindset of seasoned business warriors and master various rules.
