Without money and background, how can you succeed?

Wen | dusty chess player

? Not a rich second generation, not an official second generation, a farmer who wants to succeed very much, will he succeed?

? What kind of person can earn millions a year?

? I hope to earn 500w in the next ten years. The job I am looking for is 5000 yuan in January, a second-tier city in Central China. Is it difficult?

?

People often ask me all kinds of questions, which sum up to nothing more than one meaning: how to get rich without background, resources and principal?

Today, let's start from

? Is money really that important?

? Is it worth sacrificing the quality of life to make money?

? That boy is very kind to me, but he just can't afford a house. Should I break up with him?

Let's put these questions aside. Simply and devoutly, I knelt at grandpa Mao's feet and discussed: how can I have money?

Do those rich people really have some unique thinking and qualities, and finally accumulate wealth that ordinary people can't catch up with? Where is the gap between us and them?

If the answer you expect is:

1. Concentrate on your efforts, persevere, accumulate 10,000 hours, go out and turn left. In the speech.

2. Ma is actually a rich second generation. Buffett's father is a member of Congress. Go out and turn right in the circle of friends? Reveal the mysterious background of the self-made rich? .

The success in business is largely created by randomness, which you may not understand before.

If none of the above answers satisfy you, let's go on.

Your high school teacher won't tell you that you can't afford a house even if you study hard.

The most unhappy friends around me now are those who get the best grades in school and now live in China.

When they were at school, most of their grades were excellent and they were among the best in the exam. They are the favorite children in the eyes of teachers and idols in the hearts of classmates.

Although their salary today is still higher than that of their peers, they find that the money saved after three years of work is still not enough to buy a toilet in Beijing. So I think the world is unfair to them.

In the long learning and growing experience, our generation's understanding of career success (in fact, making big money) is highly unified:

Study hard, first enter a good high school, then enter a good university, choose a good major, find a well-paid job, and strive to become a senior manager, and live happily ever after.

But it was not until I graduated and entered the society that I found that I had been instilled with a beautiful blueprint for life for nearly 20 years, which was far from reality. Why is this happening?

Seriously speaking, this is because under the abnormal economic structure of China and the profit composition of most enterprises, the degree of asset bubble is far higher than the remuneration that enterprises can pay to high-quality technical talents.

Roughly speaking, the concept of making money passed on to students by traditional education is just a scam, that is, the more questions on those papers are done correctly, the more money they will have in the future.

However, this has little to do with the distribution of wealth in the real world, at least, it is totally out of line with China's current national conditions.

Give a simple example to explain what it means that the profit composition of an enterprise determines the income of employees:

For example, to run a cake shop, the business idea of American companies is to find the best cake master, provide the best cakes and sell them all over the world. With excellent products, they can get high premium and high market share, so as to get gross profit, and then pay high salaries to excellent cake makers.

The cake shop owners in China found that their cakes could not be better than those in the United States, and the consumption power of the mass consumers in China was not strong.

The real way to make money is to provide products with average quality but barely qualified, and sell cakes to these big customers who don't have so high requirements on cake quality in the form of large orders through some exclusive sales channels.

Therefore, the level of the cake maker is not very important, and the employees who can sign orders for the company are the most valuable talents of the company.

At the same time, China's traditional education instilled the following ideas into us:

The better the cake, the richer it will be in the future.

The United States and China here are not absolute. Can be changed into northern cities, Guangzhou, Shanghai, Guangzhou, Shanghai, Guangzhou, Shanghai, Shanghai, Shanghai, Shanghai, Shanghai, Shanghai, can also be changed into Internet companies, steel mills. However, your salary is determined by the profitability of your company and your contribution to profits, which is universally applicable.

It's hard to imagine that with such common sense, I find that countless people around me simply can't understand it, especially many famous school graduates. They wish they couldn't ask the government for money with a diploma, and everyone would say that if life cheated you.

The pain of life mainly comes from false expectations. Knowing clearly how things work won't make you rich immediately, but at least it will make you give up your stupid fantasy quickly.

The kind of rich man you yearn for is not the kind who gets a high salary by skill.

Strictly speaking, even in China, it is not impossible to obtain financial freedom with superb technology, but it is extremely difficult and arduous.

Without superior innate conditions and top acquired training, the skills that most people can acquire are not irreplaceable, so that the boss is willing to pay you a salary far exceeding the market average.

As long as you know a little about the income of most domestic enterprises, you can understand that the income of technical backbones is hard to exceed that of sales directors who master customers and project directors who form teams to connect with customers.

ChrisRock, a famous American comedy star, told a joke in a talk show: Black Americans are rich at most, but they can't get rich either.

O' Neill's annual salary is $20 million, which can only be called rich; Those old white men who sign O 'Neill's salary checks are all rich people.

In fact, the most common rich people around us are the latter. They are not people with extraordinary skills, but people who integrate resources, referred to as bosses, which is also the focus of this article.

It is worth mentioning that in the modern business environment, it is not a traditional enterprise that 100% company bosses are called bosses.

Project investor, business partner, foreman of decoration team, nightclub mother, and a group of people who arranged for their younger brothers to collect second-hand iPhone in Sanlitun and sit next to them smoking? ...

In my opinion, anyone who directly initiates and promotes business activities is a boss.

The kind of rich man you really want to be is not a person with extraordinary skills, but a person who looks for resources and integrates them.

This is a secret that the school and parents have never told you. Of course, the reason why they didn't tell you is probably because they don't think so themselves.

Self-protection doomed the fate of the poor.

The mentality of self-rationalization of human nature determines that most people are destined to be poor.

Look at how many people around you are keen to share:

? Gates' book won't tell you that his mother is a director of IBM, and she helped her son get his first big deal? ;

? Buffett's book will only tell you that he knew about going to the NYSE when he was eight years old, but he won't tell you that his congressman father took him there and was hosted by the directors of Goldman Sachs? ;

? Restore the truth of Jumeiyoupin Chen Ou's resume fraud? ;

Baidu knows that there are even several issues under study. Is the horse rich second generation? .

We have an innate powerful self-protection mechanism, which will constantly imply that only our own ideas and choices are the best and most reasonable.

However, when the brain scans the information that people and things will make you look so ignorant and incompetent, this protection mechanism will start quickly, collect all clues and prove that you are lucky because of some objective factors. If they have the same objective conditions, they will only be better than them.

Moreover, if these successful people are very familiar with themselves, their inner protection mechanism will be stronger (I don't know that people who don't speculate these days are happier than those who get rich when they see that they have lost money).

Just like when we were at school, people who were keen on discussing how to study well were nerds, and beautiful girls only liked love rat who drove a sports car. When I grew up, I became a colleague who was promoted because he could kiss up to the leaders, and a classmate who succeeded in starting a business because his family gave me huge start-up funds.

The mind of the poor is so agile. If you can't find the above reasons, there is a last resort.

They're just lucky.

Yes, it is this innate self-protection psychology that maintains social stability, reduces the suicide rate, and enables a very small number of people to overcome this inner person and become rich.

To sum up, the poor think that the gap between people is determined by objective conditions, while the rich think that the decisive factor of this gap is subjective initiative.

The thinking habit of the poor is:

They do it because they are rich/connected/lucky. I don't have these, so I can't do it. If I have these conditions, I can do it.

The thinking habit of the rich is:

They did it. Why didn't I do it? What should I do?

Poor man, it's hard to get rid of the fate of achieving nothing without breaking this self-protection heart.

Unfortunately, most people are immersed in self-comfort all their lives, from lack of talent to unfulfilled ambitions, and finally feel dull and powerless.

The thinking of the rich is to integrate resources, not to have ready-made resources.

If you can only read one paragraph of this article, that is, this paragraph, maybe it can change an individual's life trajectory.

In fact, many poor people are unwilling to get paid all their lives. They are just waiting for their chance. They are always waiting for an opportunity.

When I was studying in the United States, I was surprised to find that every international student and their parents actually have a road to the peak of their lives.

Undergraduate study hard, actively participate in extracurricular activities, expand social networks, and finally get excellent grades and rich resumes. Find a big company to work for several years and accumulate work experience.

I continued my MBA in a prestigious school, became a senior manager of a multinational company, and finally transferred back to China as the manager of China. Even when the time was right, I jumped out to start my own business with my accumulated experience and contacts for many years.

The life strategy that sounds so hearty is actually the most classic thinking of the poor. The poor always think that every step of the rich is taken away by the boat step by step, so they should wait until all the opportunities are ripe and all the resources are obtained before starting to act.

This day will never come unless there is an accident.

What they can't understand is that a small number of people in the world have similar objective conditions with them, but they are doing things that they think are out of reach.

This small group of people, who have no principal, ask friends to borrow money, investors to invest, and even bank loans; If you don't have technology, you can learn it yourself or find someone who understands technology to help you do it; It doesn't matter. Find someone to introduce you to dinner and give you a gift. No customers, one by one hard to call home to visit, even the office door is blocked.

This kind of person above is the legendary boss.

According to the thinking that the poor can only act when everything is ready, the entrepreneurial process of Jumeiyoupin should be as follows: Chen Ou University studied FMCG marketing.

After graduating from Stanford MBA, he joined Sephora as the sales director of the US headquarters. After five years of work, he moved to Tmall International as the director of cosmetics channel.

After working in Tmall for several years, I have mastered a lot of supplier resources and built an excellent e-commerce operation team. After more than 20 years in the cosmetics industry, Jumeiyou was finally established in 2026. And then what?

The actual entrepreneurial process of Jumeiyoupin will not be elaborated here. Weibo has too many articles.

However, regardless of whether Mr. Chen's previous experience was fraudulent or not, was Bositang forced, and no matter how much money his family gave him, how lucky was he to catch up with the eve of the outbreak of vertical e-commerce?

Just because he decided to be a cosmetics e-commerce, his courage and courage far exceeded many people with similar or even better objective conditions.

In fact, when you really start to be a boss who integrates resources, you will find that the resources and contacts you thought you had before are far less useful than you thought.

Any business activity from scratch will inevitably go through the stage of incomplete team and no customers. Didi taxi was dragging a taxi driver to download the App at T3 of Beijing Airport two years ago.

With Lei Jun's contacts in the Internet circle for more than 20 years, when Xiaomi was founded, he dug people one by one for nearly a year. By contrast, how useful do you think the resources you have can be?

Remember, the essence of the boss is a person who looks for resources and then integrates them, not a person who has ready-made resources.

Furthermore, all business opportunities contain a large number of unknown factors, given that human judgment on the group acceptance of an unknown thing is extremely limited.

A good boss is good at adjusting his business activities quickly according to the situation while doing it, rather than anticipating everything in advance.

Can you imagine that when the founder of Amazon sold books online, he had planned that the company's business should include e-readers, e-commerce, streaming media, cloud computing and drones?

Why does the opportunity that poor people wait for never come? By the time you see everything clearly, the market has been carved up by those who rushed in while everything was uncertain.

The real good opportunity always exists in the unknown.

The same principle does not exist only in the business world. The best opportunity in everyone's life almost always happens when you are not fully prepared.

I still remember when I first went to the United States, I heard that high school math class representatives went to New Oriental to be TOEFL teachers.

Most of the students in the class are full of doubt and ridicule when they talk about it, because everyone knows that he studied well in high school because of his excellent grades in mathematics, physics and chemistry, and his English level is not good at all

They are absolutely right. Later, I learned that this buddy didn't even take the TOEFL test at that time, but he succeeded in applying for it with a bite of his teeth. As a result, he was very scared at first, afraid of being driven off the platform by students in his dreams, so he frantically prepared lessons and made up English exams every day, and finally persisted.

But two years later, the people who mocked him are still the same as before. He has become a TOEFL teacher in New Oriental, and there are open classes in official website, New Oriental, with students all over North America.

Later, I watched his lecture video silently at home, which was not inferior to those famous New Oriental teachers I admired in those years.

I suddenly remembered Luo Yonghao's cover letter to Yu. Imagine if Mr. Luo thought he had to practice English as well as a teacher before he dared to apply for a job in New Oriental. Now he may just be an old literary cynic in Yanbian, Jilin.

You see, people who really do things well actually think like this. I must do it, and I will try my best to fight for what is missing. And those who can't do anything are always waiting for the opportunity.

No matter in work or in life, a successful person must be brave and resourceful, but courage is greater than resourcefulness. In contrast, diligence, concentration and cleverness can only be regarded as small skills, and only courage is a person's outstanding core competitiveness.

After reading books for so many years and reading so many cases, I can tell you so much in my cruel practice. Not the rich second generation, not the official second generation, I really want to succeed, will I succeed? Best answer.

As for whether you think it is enlightening or blending chicken soup, it's up to you.

Good luck.
