Success is not as difficult as you think-not because we dare not do things, but because we don't do things now.

1965, a Korean student went to Cambridge University to study psychology. During afternoon tea, he often goes to the school cafe or teahouse to listen to some successful people chatting. These successful people include Nobel Prize winners, academic authorities in certain fields and some people who have created economic myths. These people are humorous and easy to lift weights. They all regard their success as natural and logical. After a long time, he found himself cheated by some successful people when he was in China. Those people generally exaggerate the hardships of starting a business in order to let those who are starting a business retreat, that is to say, they are scaring those who have not succeeded with their own successful experience.

As a student of psychology department, he thinks it is necessary to study the mentality of successful people in Korea. 1970, he took "Success is not as difficult as you think" as his graduation thesis and submitted it to Will, the founder of modern economic psychology. Professor Braden. After reading it, Professor Braden was greatly surprised. He thinks this is a new discovery. Although this phenomenon is very common in the East and even the whole world, no one has boldly proposed to study it before. Surprised, he wrote to his Cambridge alumnus park chung-hee, who was sitting at the top of Korean politics. He said in the letter: "I can't say how much this book has helped you, but I'm sure it can shock you more than any of your laws."

Later, this book really took off with the Korean economy. This book has inspired many people, because it tells people from a new angle that success is not necessarily related to "stretching bones, starving the body and starving the skin", "burning the midnight oil" and "hanging the beam on the head and stabbing the leg". As long as you are interested in a career, you will succeed from now on. Later, this young man also succeeded. He became the president of Pan Ye Automobile Company.

Second,

Live by the ticket forever-it's really interesting: if you only accept the best, you will often get the best.

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.

Three,

There was an old farmer's farmland, and a big stone lay sideways for many years. This stone broke several plowshares of the old farmer and damaged his farming machine. There was nothing the old farmer could do about it, and that boulder became a lingering heart disease when he was farming.

One day, after another plow broke down, I remembered the endless troubles caused by that boulder, and finally made up my mind to get rid of that boulder and end this heart disease. So he found a crowbar and stuck it under the boulder, but he was surprised to find that the stone was not as deep and thick as he thought. He can pry it up with a little strength, then break it with a sledgehammer and clean it out of the ground. The old farmer's mind flashed a scene that he had been troubled by boulders for many years, and then he thought of getting rid of this headache early, and he couldn't help smiling bitterly. When you encounter a problem, you should find out the root cause immediately. If there is a problem, we should deal with it immediately without delay, just like the old farmer in the story. Many things are not as difficult as you think. As long as you act, you will find a solution to the problem in your actions.

Procrastination exists in everyone's subconscious. Don't make it a habit. Procrastination is to put the burden of today on the shoulders of tomorrow until it becomes unbearable and becomes an irresponsible person. Never delay anything! ! Act now! !

Fourthly, Dr. Wang An, a computer celebrity, claimed that the biggest lesson that influenced his life happened when he was 6 years old.

One day, when Wang An was walking under a tree, suddenly a bird's nest fell on his head and a small sparrow rolled out of it. He liked it so much that he took it home with the bird's nest. He walked to the door and suddenly remembered that his mother didn't allow him to keep small animals at home. He had to gently put the sparrow behind the door, and then hurried into the house to ask his mother's permission.

At his request, mother made an exception and agreed to his request. Wang An ran excitedly behind the door. Unexpectedly, the sparrow has disappeared and a black cat is wiping its mouth.

From this incident, Wang An learned a great lesson. As long as you think it is right, you must not be indecisive, and you must act immediately. People who can't make a decision certainly have no chance to do something wrong. But also lost the possibility of success.

Why am I the best player (Jordan)

Pippen comes from an isolated and backward country, but dares to confront the players who grew up in the city. Children from rural areas can keep learning, but they have to pay more time and energy than others. I don't know how many times, I feel that I am playing with my twin brother on the court, which shows the progress he has made when we play together. If we play a game as opponents, I firmly believe that I am slightly better than him-I understand the subtle changes of the game more deeply, but it will definitely be a wonderful game. Pippen makes himself an "intruder" who attacks others at any time, and every attack gives people a surprise.

But he is different from me: he only attacks when a group of wolves are chasing him, while I attack anytime and anywhere (even if there are no wolves chasing him). In fact, this difference is huge, and the resulting power difference is self-evident.

I often see a little timidity in other players' eyes, especially when they find that they are not completely sure to honor their promises made in advance.

Let's put it this way, a player swears that he must play well the next day, but once the game starts, when he misses the first shot, you can catch a glimpse of the slight confusion in his eyes, which represents a little timidity.

He didn't clear his head in time and told himself, "It doesn't matter, I will play the second ball!" " "On the contrary, negative thoughts gathered one after another until they became a' wall of fear', and finally there was no chance to regain their fighting spirit.

★ And I, what will happen if I lose a ball? I accept this result with a positive attitude, and I will never let a goal affect the whole night's game. I never let negative thoughts accumulate a little. At this time, I told myself: "It's all over, cherish the opportunities behind!" "Then, throw five balls in front and I'll throw 10 behind. I always let my confidence run through the game.

If one ball misses, I won't worry that the next ball may miss. If you haven't voted yet, why are you worried about missing it? ! In fact, this kind of negative thinking will often become the fetters of all people (not just athletes).

In fact, how can life always be smooth sailing? I will try to make a little progress every day. I need to look back on yesterday and feel that today is better than yesterday. A little progress every day, how many leaps should there be in that life!

The most important thing in the competition is to keep calm and learn to keep your nerves calm in a hot atmosphere. Of course, occasionally your mood will be affected by the atmosphere of the game, but the key is that you must remind yourself in time to curb the spread of this negative thought.

The genius of a great star is that he can always keep the whole game in line with his own rhythm without worrying about "catching up" the game all night. This is probably one of the obvious differences between "great stars" and "excellent players".

When I was a child, I always liked to dress myself up on Sundays. My brothers and sisters like to wear overalls, but I always wear a suit and tie-in my opinion, wearing a suit and tie is the real dress.

I clearly remember my father telling me how important the first impression is to a person. At the University of North Carolina, we wear suits every time we go out, which is exactly what I want. We travel together, hoping to give people a noble and beautiful feeling.

Because of this, I always spend time decorating myself in my room before going to the stadium. I want to make a good impression on people and let them know that I care about what they think of me. Of course, I can respect them as much as possible.

What I want to say to young players is: seize the moment and be careful not to let yourself be trapped by the trap set by others. Success will bring higher expectations, but this is the natural law of our social evolution. Before you grow up to be a player, you must know who you are.

Six,

Li Ka-shing plays an important role in Hongkong and Asian economic circles. Li Ka-shing's success, its decisive decision-making played a decisive role: quick response, decisive handling; Enter if you can, or retreat if you don't.

In the mid-1950s, plastic flowers became popular in European and American markets, and pots of flowers, fruits and plants made of plastic were popular in every household and office building. Li Ka-shing made a decisive decision, abandoned other businesses and devoted himself to the production of plastic flowers. The "Changjiang Plastic Factory" he founded became the largest plastic flower factory in the world, and he was also called "the king of plastic flowers". In the early 1960s, the production of plastic flowers was still optimistic, but he had a premonition that the plastic flower market would turn from prosperity to decline, so he immediately quit the plastic flower industry and returned to toys and other industries, thus avoiding a crisis.

In the late 1960s, when Hong Kong's economy took off and land prices began to soar, he quickly invested and bought a lot of land. The most noteworthy is 1977. In May of that year, the Hong Kong Government held a public tender for the construction of underground buildings in Central District and admiralty station. The major consortia have launched fierce competition for the construction right of this prime location. Li Ka-shing's main competitor is the land acquisition company controlled by Jardine Matheson, UK. Because it is backed by the Hong Kong government and has abundant financial resources, it is called the "real estate emperor". As a result of fierce competition, Li Ka-shing's "Changjiang Industry" defeated the powerful "land acquisition company", which opened the precedent for China's capital to annex British capital, and was called "small snake swallowing elephant".

In the late 1970s, Hong Kong's stock market was booming, and he quickly plunged into market speculation without mercy. His first target is Jardine Wharf, a British company. He bought quietly and sold decisively, making a net profit of HK$ 59 million. 1978, he turned his attention to Qingzhou Yingni, another old British company, and soon acquired 25% of Qingzhou Yingni's shares in the stock market and became a director of the company. Subsequently, Li Ka-shing concentrated his firepower on pursuing British capital Hutchison Whampoa and absorbed a large number of shares in the stock market. 1980165438+10, through a whole year of continuous efforts, we finally succeeded in owning more than 40% of the equity of Hutchison Whampoa. 198 1 year 1 month 1 day, he officially became the chairman of the board of directors of the old British foreign firm Hutchison Whampoa. In this way, Li Ka-shing's assets expanded like a bubble and became the richest man in Hong Kong.

★ Seven,

Seize the present

Two brothers live on the eightieth floor.

One day they went out to climb the mountain, and when they came home, the power went out in Eureka Tower! Although they were carrying a big bag of luggage, they seemed to have no choice, so the elder brother said to his younger brother, "Let's climb the stairs!" " "

So they began to climb up with a big bag of luggage on their backs. When they reached the twentieth floor, they began to get tired!

The elder brother said to his younger brother, "The bag is too heavy. Let's do it! We put it on the twentieth floor, climb up first, and then take the elevator down to get it when the electricity comes. " The younger brother said, "Good! You are so smart! " So they put their bags on the twentieth floor and continued to climb. It's much easier to unload the burden! They crawled all the way talking and laughing.

But it didn't last long. On the fortieth floor, they are really tired. They think they're only halfway up. Looking ahead, there is the first 40 stories to climb. They began to complain to each other, accusing each other of not paying attention to the power outage announcement, and the result would be like this. They climbed up and down until they reached the sixtieth floor.

On the 60th floor, maybe I'm too tired to fight. The elder brother said to his younger brother, "There are only 20 floors left. Let's stop arguing and climb silently!"

So they walked quietly, and finally, the eightieth floor arrived! At the door, my brother made a handsome gesture: "Brother, open the door!" " "The younger brother said," Stop it! Don't you have a key? " ……

As you expected, they left their keys in the bag on the twentieth floor! ......

Some people say that this story actually reflects our life.

Before the age of twenty, we lived under the expectation and expectation of our family and teachers, and were burdened with great pressure and burden. We were not mature enough and lacked ability, so our pace was inevitably unstable.

After the age of 20, I left everyone's pressure, unloaded my baggage and began to pursue my dreams with all my strength. In this way, I lived happily for 20 years.

However, when I was forty years old, I found that my youth had passed, and I felt a lot of regrets. So I began to regret this, that, company, society and government. .....................................................................................................................

At the age of 60, I found that my life was running out, so I told myself to stop complaining and cherish the rest of my life! So I walked silently through the rest of my life.

At the end of my life, I remembered that I seemed to have unfinished business ... It turned out that my dream had not been completed at the age of twenty. Are you the same? Think about what your dream is. What do you care about most? Don't wait forty years to regret it.

Think about how different you want your future self to be from your present self, and just do it! ......

Seize the present, remember, today is a gift.

Eight,

Sima Guang hits tanks.

Sima Guang is not only a good boy who studies hard, but also very clever. Once, he and his friends were playing in his backyard. There is a big water tank in the yard, which is full of water. A child climbed to the edge of the tank and accidentally fell into Tanqueray. The tank is very big and the water is deep. It seems that the child is almost full.

At this critical moment, when other children saw something big, they all ran out in tears, ready to find an adult to save them. Sima Guang took his time, looked around and saw a big stone not far away. He quickly picked it up from the ground and threw it at the water tank with all his strength. Bang, the water tank broke, the water in the tank came out, and the submerged child was saved.

This accidental event made young Sima Guang famous. Some people in Tokyo and Luoyang described this story and spread it widely. Up to now, many parents are still educating their children with the story of Sima Guang smashing jars.
