Throughout the ages, many successful people have the same characteristic, that is, they are not satisfied with the status quo. Not keeping "duty" gives people a sense of restlessness. It's often that others are doing things in a rut, but they go against the social psychology and go against the trend, doing other and unfashionable things.
Stallone, a Hollywood star, was rejected by hundreds of film companies for 1855 times. "Do you want to be an actor?" "You learn to speak before you come." "You are ugly." "You go to plastic surgery before you come." In the face of others' sarcasm, he still sticks to his belief that he must become an actor, and has not been crushed by rumors or discouraged by repeated rejections. In the end, I realized my dream and became a famous movie star in Hollywood.
If Stallone is rejected, he will behave himself and never want to be an actor again. Then, he wouldn't have achieved today, his acting talent wouldn't have been discovered, and a talented superstar would have been lost in the film industry.
winners. There is a common feature, that is, they are not law-abiding, and they all have the courage to do things that others dare not do. They dare to bet on uncertain gambling; Dare to be unconventional in areas that others can't think of. They are not afraid to cross the rubicon and start all over again. Even if they fall down hundreds of times, their desire for success will not die, and their domineering will not die. These people regard life as an adventure, but leave behind an adventure course. Unlike ordinary people, they are not afraid of difficulties, but are willing to throw themselves into the torrent of adversity and actively fight against the wind and waves. Even if they turn around a thousand times, they will reach the success!
Of course, such people may not be successful, but all successful people are due to this restlessness. The so-called: move, and then you can succeed; If you don't move, you will always be content with the status quo and will not become a big climate. For example, Liu Bang: The farmer's son doesn't farm, but he is busy making friends all day long. His family is not rich, but he likes to give alms. Although, before he got up, he didn't know how his life would go on, but his restless heart kept beating in his body.
In the face of the opportunity provided by history, Liu Bang's unique temperament has a "hero's place", which quickly leads him to success.
"How can a sparrow know the ambition of a swan?" Who can you think of from this sentence? Remember the peasant uprisings in Chen Sheng and Wu Guang? Chen Sheng, a servant of the landlord, was not satisfied with the status quo, and finally launched a peasant uprising, which won a decisive victory in the battle. He succeeded. It was his strong ambition that made him step by step. He questioned that "princes and princes would rather have seeds". He did not want to be a quiet farmer, and he was unwilling to be a slave, so he succeeded.
and today's top computer manufacturer and seller-michael dell. This man has been very restless since he was a child. He studied medicine himself, but he got a lot of computer equipment in the dormitory and put it in the dormitory for research. Finally, he worked out something, and finally gave up medicine and sold computers.
Another example is Bill Gates, a law major at Harvard, who was not satisfied with the status quo. In his freshman year, he dropped out of school to start his computer company.
what should the poor learn from these people? In fact, fate is the same for everyone. If a person doesn't have the ambition of a swan, only knows how to behave himself and has no ambition, then he can only be a sparrow all his life.
For the light and heat, the moth bravely jumped on the lamp. Although it may die in the light, it bravely challenged those light and heat. Moths are still like this, let alone people?
A gardener asked Jing Zhi, "Mr. President, I think your career is getting bigger and bigger, and I am like a cicada on a tree. I have been in the tree all my life, which is so hopeless. Please tell me the secret of starting a business! " Jing Zhi didn't even think about it, then nodded and said, "Well, I think you are very suitable for gardening. Tell you what, there are 2, ping open spaces next to my factory, so let's plant saplings! How much is a tree seedling? " "4 yuan."
Then Jing Zhi said to him, "Good! Based on the calculation of planting two trees in one ping, excluding roads, about 25 thousand trees can be planted in 2 thousand ping, and the cost of seedlings is just 1 million yuan. After 3 years, how much can a tree seedling sell? " "About 3, yuan."
"So, I'll pay the seedling cost and fertilizer fee of 1 million yuan. You are responsible for watering, weeding and fertilizing. Three years later, we will have a second profit of 6 million yuan. At that time, we were each half. " Jing Zhi said seriously. Unexpectedly, the gardener refused to say, "Wow! I dare not do such a big business. I think I'll forget it. "
It's so easy for gardeners to be content with the status quo, and it's even more difficult for them to become rich and start their own business.
because there is an attempt, it will succeed. Only people with strong ambition can stand out in the shopping mall. Big waves wash sand, showing the true colors of heroes. Of course, it doesn't mean that you can succeed if you have ambition, but you have to go through many hardships. Didn't Mencius say: "Therefore, the heaven will drop to the people of Sri Lanka, so we must first suffer their minds, work their bones and muscles, starve their bodies and skin, and be empty of their bodies"? Do you have the courage to overcome these hardships? Do you dare to challenge the arrangement of fate? Do you have the determination to overcome difficulties? Do you believe in yourself? If you can answer these questions in the affirmative, then you will succeed.
However, if you are a timid person, afraid of wolves before and tigers behind, afraid to fight and just spend money from your "treasury" for years, then your "resources" will be exhausted one day. Even if we have made some achievements temporarily, there is nothing to boast about, because there is no eternal success in life, and everyone is just a winner in front of us. Maybe you have succeeded temporarily, but you don't have the courage to take a step forward, and then you will be content with the status quo and not make progress. In this case, you will eventually become a loser.
when you are tempted by something, you should be careful to fall into the trap of mediocrity. In the face of flowers and wine, are you enjoying or intoxicated? In the face of the storm and lightning, whether you value or escape, we need to treat it with a calm and calm attitude. Fan Zhongyan once said this sentence: "Don't be happy with things, don't be sad for yourself." Life is short, so why not leave more room for thinking and creation in this short time? Why bother yourself with mediocrity, bother yourself in the world of mortals, and disturb your mood for the sake of making a fool of yourself? On the road of life, whether we are unfortunately stuck in the mire of success, wandering outside the door of success, or standing on the podium with infinite scenery, as long as we always maintain a calm and peaceful heart, this heart will generate endless motivation to refuse mediocrity.
why should we tolerate a poor play, forgive a poor painting and forgive a tasteless poem? Admittedly, the imperfection of life needs an understanding heart, but this can never be an excuse for mediocrity, and accommodating mediocrity means destroying success!
To be a restless person, you must have strong self-confidence and refuse mediocrity. Lack of self-confidence is the direct creator of your mediocrity. The fish in a small river was surrounded by shrimps and crabs since childhood, so it was quite confident. But when it swam into the sea, it felt inferior when it found that it was surrounded by bigger and more beautiful fish. Have you ever felt this way? There are mountains outside the mountains and people outside, which requires full confidence to accept the challenge. If you lack self-confidence, even if you used to be a shining piece of gold, you will fade into a piece of iron, or even degenerate into a grain of sand, and eventually you will be submerged in the dust and never seen by people. Maybe you were originally excellent, and it was the lack of self-confidence that pulled you from an excellent position to mediocrity step by step. Self-indulgence in mediocrity is a disaster in life and the greatest sorrow, and you are often the direct director of this disaster. If you want to refuse mediocrity, you must live every day of your life.
some people say that you don't need to be far or high, as long as you can fly, you are a bird; Some people say that you don't need to be fast or deep, as long as you can swim, you are a fish. However, if a bird is only content with flying smoothly, it will never feel the power of the wind; If a fish just swims in shallow water, it will never hear the sound of the sea.
If it is a bird, why not be a goshawk fighting the sky? If it's a fish, why not be a fierce shark swimming in the deep sea? Life is a unique life, and it is because of its personality and angular that it is different. Just like Kuafu, no one ever wanted to go and pick up the elusive sun in the sky, and it was Kuafu who was uneasy about mediocrity that started his arduous and risky journey. Although he fell on the way to chase the sun, who can say that he is a mediocre person? The walking stick he threw when he died turned into Deng Lin, which provided shade for later sun chasers and made a great myth.
Everyone has a place under his feet, but not everyone has a road of their own. Stop accommodating and move towards success, starting with restlessness. Why are rich people rich? It is precisely because they are restless, unwilling to be mediocre, never stop their own steps, and always struggle. Being content with mediocrity and dying of mediocrity is the greatest tragedy of mankind. We should dare to say "no" to mediocrity! If the poor want to be rich, they can't be a quiet person, but have the ambition to become rich.
