in front of making changes

The ancients said: If you are poor, you will think, you will change, you will be able to make changes, and you will be able to make changes, and you will be able to make changes. When

people are doing well, most of them will not prepare for the future and will not think too much.

But when you are not good, you will think about the life you have gone through, the things you have done, and the people you have met, and you will develop a lot of wisdom.

The development of the Internet in recent years has made offline entities difficult, and the spread of the epidemic has limited many people to the lowest point.

We often attribute this to changes in the overall environment and comfort ourselves: it would be fine in the past.

In this past process, some people had no choice but to make adjustments and find another way out in life.

Some people, in a cocoon, walked to the dark side, hit the wall and broke into blood, and finally sighed: The times are really merciless to abandon one person.

In fact, the wheel of history rolls forward, it seems that the times are different, and the situation is different, but the rules are always there, and there are always some unchanging factors in the changes.

"Good to Flexibility" is a book that teaches you how to use flexible thinking to find a way out for yourself at certain stages of your life, and thus change your life. After learning these 7 ways of flexibility, you can control your life at any time.

adaptation is not blindly following

Biologists have done an interesting experiment for caterpillars:

let a caterpillar lead, circle around a large flower pot, and other caterpillars follow, and soon form a circle. In this way, each caterpillar can be said to be the leader or the ending, and they follow one behind and repeat. Until a few days later, the caterpillars were too hungry to crawl. The experiment of

shows that if a person loses his judgment ability and blindly follows the trend, he will not even know how he dies.

There is an ambitious businessman who heard that he was attracting investment from other places and "adapted to the trend" and invested tens of millions in the place.

Two years later, he lost all his money and returned empty-handed.

A friend asked him, why did you go there to invest?

He said that at that time, many peers rushed to go there, and everyone believed that the investment conditions there were superior and had great prospects for development. If I don't go, I'm worried that I will lose the opportunity.

The businessman fell into a vicious circle: everyone else did it, I must keep up quickly.

There is such a saying in the workplace: the same creativity and a new path. The first one is genius, the second one is mediocre, the third one is fool, and the fourth one is about to enter the coffin. This shows the sorrow of the followers.

Things that follow the trend may not necessarily follow you. Experts look at the tricks and laymen watch the excitement. If you don’t analyze your own situation and the other party, just blindly follow the trend, you will be destined to have no good results.

An oil tycoon is walking towards heaven, but the angel said to him, you are qualified to live in, but the place reserved for the oil tycoons is already full, and there is no way to squeeze you in.

The tycoon thought for a while and asked to say something to the person inside.

This seemed to be no harm to the angel, so he agreed to the tycoon's request.

The tycoon shouted loudly, he found oil in hell!

The door of the courtyard opened quickly, and people inside flocked out and ran towards hell.

Angel was very surprised, so he invited the tycoon to go in.

The tycoon hesitated and said, "No, I think I should follow those people, maybe oil is really found in hell."

After saying that, he also ran towards hell.

This is a bit ridiculous story. The tycoon originally used human nature to win a place for himself, but in the end he was bewitched by his own lies.

While people are terrifying, we have to sigh: is true and true.It is sometimes stupid to blindly follow without thinking.

There is a grassland in Australia where the grass grows particularly well, so the flocks growing there are getting bigger and bigger.

As the flock continues to grow, a very strange phenomenon occurs: the flock in front can always eat grass, while the flock in back can always eat only leftovers.

So the flock behind will run to the front of the team when the flock in front is eating grass. In this way, the flock was unwilling to fall behind in order to compete for food. The flock began to run forward continuously.

At the beginning, the flock of sheep running in front would still know to stop and eat grass, but in the end, all the sheep knew: if you want to eat grass, you must run desperately in the front.

This creates a very spectacular scene on the grassland, and the flocks are running in one direction. At the end of the grassland is a cliff, and the flock of sheep ran to the edge of the cliff and ignored it at all, so the whole group of sheep jumped down the cliff...

This is a very tragic scene, and it is also a story worthy of deep thought of by our humans.

ran blindly, but forgot the purpose of running, and finally broke into pieces.

Does this look like some people’s reckless actions over the years? God never takes extra care because you work hard. Instead, he sometimes gives you a heavy blow because it wants to wake you up.

The hard work without credit will always be in vain.

Under the fire-like sun, two farmers planted rice together.

Due to lack of water, the hardworking person braved the noon heat wave every day, pumped the water from the pool into the field, and dug deep into the field to raise more water.

The other person just sorted out the ditch and did not dig deep. Instead, he chose the time to pump water appropriately and paid attention to the weather forecast at all times.

One afternoon, thunder broke out, and a rare heavy rain came...

After the rain, the ridge of the hard-working man collapsed due to too much water, and the man who seemed not very "hardworking" had his ridge of the field was safe and sound, and the field was full of water.

We will praise that guy who works hard because he is down-to-earth and serious, but we will also appreciate the person who works with his brain. Working hard is just doing things correctly. Working with his brain is doing the right thing, and direction is more important than method.

Business consultant Liu RunI wrote an article about my own taxi in my early years, telling of a legendary driver Zang Qin.

Zang Qin rents a rental in Shanghai. Others earn 3,000 a month, but he can earn 8,000, nearly three times that of others.

After work every day, he will study and analyze the detailed records of attracting customers on a day from the meter. In our words, it is to summarize the work after get off work every day.

He summarized the itinerary of the day, how to better optimize the route, maximize the number of customers, how to avoid traffic peaks, and even understand where there are commercial activities the next day, and make a layout in advance.

So when waiting for the red light, he never curses like others. He will enjoy that minute like sightseeing. After the guests take their seats, he will chat and interact with the guests. Many customers have become his loyal repeat customers, and they are designated to find him for rent.

Often people regard this as a profession, but Zang Qin regards it as a career.

The difference between career and career is the same. The former is dedicated to one's mind, while the latter is quick-witted.

stubbornness, it can be a person's advantage or a person's disadvantage.

When one path can no longer be gone, stubbornness seems pedantic.

When Mi Yamamoto Tani was the chief designer of Daniel Tani, she was eliminated because she was too stubborn.

At that time, mass production had begun to make its mark in the industrial field. However, Yamamoto Mi worked hard day and night like he did when he first made an oil tanker.Other personnel from

also discovered this and offered him a kind advice, but Yamamoto Tani Mi couldn't listen at all, but instead stubbornly walked all the way to the dark.

After nearly a year of hard battle, the first tanker was finally born. This tanker has noble style, luxurious decoration, and the tonnage of shipment is also very large.

, but due to the high price and the construction period is too long, the company has no customers coming to the door.

Company strongly demands that Yamamoto Mi use new production processes and change its business ideas, but Yamamoto Mi insists that tankers should be made purely by hand. In the end, Daniel had to fire Yamamoto Mi.

craftsman spirit is often praised by us, but also has to look up at the sky when walking with his head down. We alone cannot compete with the trends of the times. Only by adapting can we respond.

Swiss is the country with the largest number of watch production and sales in the world. It is known as the "king of watches". Its mechanical watches are invincible in the world.

But in the 1950s and 1960s, an engineer designed quartz electronic watch twice, both of which were dismissed by the industry.

Later, Japan took advantage of this technology and developed the electronic watch , and the market sales soared. Swiss watches dropped from more than 50% of the original sales to 9%, one-third of the watch factories went bankrupt, thousands of small watch companies announced their closures, and more than half of the watch workers joined the unemployed team...

This painful lesson was not until the 1980s that they learned their lesson, integrated and transformed, and finally turned the tables against the wind.

When adhering to the truth, we need to be stubborn. When exploring the times and self-development, we must judge the situation. does not make a fuss and sacrifice like a silly mania and sacrifice.

Workaround is to treat difficulties as opportunities

Difficulty is to treat pessimists, green light for optimists, and yellow light for wise people.

Don’t be afraid of having yellow lights. Stop and take a break and think about it. The green light will eventually pass you.

During the reign of Kangxi, Anhui young Wang Zhihe went to Beijing to fail the exam and decided to stay in the capital, while continuing to study and learning to make a living.

However, he is a young scholar after all, and has no experience in doing business. On the summer day, he has a lot of tofu left, so he has to cut the tofu into pieces and marinate it in a small jar. But as the days went by, he forgot to have this jar of tofu. When the autumn cooled, he remembered that pickled tofu had become "stinky tofu".

Wang Zhihe was very annoyed and was about to throw away the "stinky" tofu in the jar, but then he thought that although it was smelly, he could still keep it for eating.

So I endured the stinky smell and started eating it. However, strangely, although the stinky tofu smelled, it tasted very fragrant. So, Wang Zhihe took his stinky tofu to give it to his friend. After all, his friend agreed to take a bite. Unexpectedly, after everyone covered their noses and tasted it, they praised it and agreed that the tofu was delicious.

Wang Zhihe took advantage of this mistake and changed his career to make stinky tofu. His business became bigger and bigger, and his influence became wider. Finally, even Empress Dowager Cixi came to taste the delicious stinky tofu and praised it very much.

From then on, Wang Zhihe and his stinky tofu doubled their value and were also listed as an imperial recipe. Until today, many foreign friends have arrived in Beijing and still named it to taste this so-called "China's best" Wang Zhi and stinky tofu .

is a coincidence, and difficulties often hide opportunities. In fact, opportunities like to play hide-and-seek with you. They will not stand in front of you and wait for you, but will require you to make some efforts and then let you find them out.

Recently, Henan girl Mai Xiaodeng became the image ambassador of Henan. This girl who was not happy in childhood depended on her father since she was a child. After graduation, she could have found a job in a big city, but in order to stay by her father's side, accompany her father to treat her illness, take daily life into the camera, and use short videos to record rural fireworks over the years.

not only solved the cost of my father's medical treatment, but also gained the love of childhood sweethearts and found a path to growth in life for myself.

In autumn, mother, when her son was a few months old, suddenly suffered a family change. She used to be a princess and didn't have to worry about anything, but now she has to shoulder the burden of food, food, oil and salt.

She was also depressed for several months and could not accept it. She didn't know what the future would be. By chance, she found that short videos could still make money. Although it was a few cents at the beginning, it was enough to allow an unarmed mother to see hope.

A spark can start a prairie fire. Now, she has used her persistence and strength to embark on a path of women that can give countless people hope.

Difficulty is the best gift given to everyone by life. Whether to treasure or abandon it depends on your thoughts.

When you really work hard, you will know that the so-called "difficulty" of is actually just your own "spiritual shackles".

Function is to dig wells in another place

We often say that every road leads to Rome.

This road is not accessible, change one, there are only suffocated cows in this world, and no one is trapped.

There is a farmer who has established the ideal of being a writer since childhood.

For this reason, he has worked hard for ten years and insisted on writing every day.

He sent the revised articles one by one to newspapers and magazines far away with hope.

However, several years have passed, and the sea has fallen into the sea, and even a letter of rejection has not been received.

Finally, when he was 29 years old, he received his first letter of rejection.

It was sent by the editor-in-chief of a publication he had been contributing for many years. The editor-in-chief said:

It can be seen that you are a very hard-working young man. But I have to regret to tell you that your knowledge is too narrow and your life experience seems relatively pale. But I found from your years of writing that your pen is getting better and better.

From then on, he seemed to have discovered a new field, focusing on writing fountain pen characters.

His name is Zhang Wenju, and he is now a famous hard pen calligrapher.

Since God has brought you to the present, he must have prepared a way out for you. However, sometimes, you need to constantly explore and discover it.

Before this, you do need to try and make mistakes, but don't stop.

American writer Mark Twain used to do business. For the first time, he was engaged in the investment of typewriter . Because he was deceived, he lost $190,000.

opened a publishing company for the second time. Because he was an amateur and did not know how to operate, he lost another $100,000.

lost nearly $300,000 in two times, not only did he lose all the royalties he had earned for many years, but he also owed a lot of debts.

His wife knew that her husband had no business talent but had literary talent, so she encouraged him to re-take the path of creation.

Finally, Mark Twain escaped the pain of failure and devoted himself to literary creation, and later achieved brilliant achievements.

Stop the loss in time and turn around for life. You will find that the scenery that belongs to you is waiting for you.

Flexibility is to use passive change to active

A sudden accident and encounter a change, which makes our lives passive in an instant.

If we keep getting stuck in this circle of prisons, it will be really difficult to get out.

However, if you look at the circle under your feet carefully, you will find that it is only in a square inch, taking one step, and the sky is high outside.

Such an interesting scene happened in a British court:

A middle-aged woman was crying and faced with the judge, sternly accusing her husband of having an affair and demanding a divorce from her husband.

She accused the judge of her husband of going to the sports field to meet the "third party" regardless of day or night.

This third party is not a person, but a football player.

So, what women want to sue is this football manufacturer.

has been involved in such a lawsuit out of thin air. As a manufacturer, do we say it is wronged or not? But after receiving the court summons, the manufacturer was very happy that they were willing to pay 100,000 yuan as a mental compensation for women.

This lawsuit caused by football is rare in history, so media have reported that the football factory became famous, and then more people bought football, and sales increased instead of falling.

How can you know the fortune and fortune if you lose your horse?

A wise person can always find the door to opportunity from difficulties and break the deadlock smoothly.

A successful person said that life is a process of accumulation, you will always fall, Even if you fall, you must know how to grab a handful of sand in your hands. Only in this way can you fall.

Mitsuo Tanaka used to work as a school worker in a high school in Tokyo. Although his weekly salary was only 50 yen, he was very satisfied and worked very seriously for decades.

Just when he was about to retire, the newly appointed principal thought that he "didn't even recognize his words, but he worked on campus, which was incredible" and fired him.

Mitsuo Tanaka left the campus in distress. As usual, he went to buy half a pound of sausage for his dinner, but when he was about to arrive in front of Mrs. Yamada's food store, he slapped his forehead - Mrs. Yamada had passed away and her food store was closed for several days.

Unfortunately, there is no second seller in the nearby block. Suddenly, an idea flashed through his heart - 15 years later, he became the president of a well-known cooked food processing factory, and his sausage chain stores spread across the streets and alleys of Tokyo.

When he fired his principal, he learned that the famous chairman could not write, he called to praise him for being amazing.

Mitsuo Tanaka answered sincerely, thank you very much for dismissing me and making me fall. Since then, I realized that I can do more things. Otherwise, I will definitely be a school worker with a weekly salary of 50 yen.

When faced with frustration in life, don’t complain first. Take the initiative to leave a clearing for your soul. Once the seeds of germination are sown, they will bloom and bear fruit.

adaptation is not to play according to common sense

adaptation, change is thinking, and understands inspiration.

Sometimes, when we think about things in the opposite direction, we may have unexpected results.

The famous French cosmetics company Chanel when it first started, it had no reputation, its products were unsalable, and the company was in trouble.

They made such a creative idea, selecting 10 ugly girls to meet everyone on the Paris stage. As soon as the

advertisement came out, this incident was rumored to be a strange story. There were many people visiting the audience, and ugly girls came out one by one, and they were indeed ugly. The audience suddenly booed and were all amazed.

At this time, Ms. Chanel walked onto the stage with a smile and told everyone that in order to show the effects of our company's cosmetics, please wait for a moment and let the ugly girls put on makeup to thank you.

After a while, the ugly girls painted each other, and they really looked different. The audience was amazed that since then, Chanel's cosmetics have been launched.

Regular thinking can only do routine things and reverse thinking not only gives people a novel feeling, but also achieves surprising results.

Belgium once had a brewery. Due to various reasons, and lack of money to advertise, sales volume dropped sharply, so salesman Linda took out a loan to contract sales work in the factory.

Just as he was worried about how to make the most money-saving advertisement, he wandered to Julian Square in the center of Brussels.

This day is Thanksgiving. Although it is late at night, there are still many people in the square. The bronze statue in the center - the peeing boy is the little hero Julian , who is famous for saving the city.

The children in the square used their empty mineral water bottles to collect the "urination" in the bronze statue and splashed it at each other. Of course, the urine was flowing through tap water.

That night, Linda did something unexpected.

The next day, people in the square found that Julien's urine turned into beer, and a big sign was erected next to the bronze statue, saying "Haro beer free tasting".

One passes to ten, ten passes to hundreds. People in the city line up to pick up beer and drink from their homes.

Various media rushed to report that Linda's beer did not spend a penny on advertising, but did the best advertising.

The premise of adaptability must be to pay attention to it everywhere. Only by keeping things in your heart can you be brought out by inspiration when you are unintentionally.

does not play according to the rules and is a good person who is good at planning things. Only by setting out a road through mountains and building bridges across rivers.

Since adapt flexibly can bring such a qualitative change in our lives, how to adapt?

Workaround is essentially a change in thinking, so having a systematic thinking can cultivate your acuity and let you smell the breath of opportunity at some critical moments.
