Cao Xiuyun is the Chinese translator of books such as " dry method ", "heart method", " living method " written by Kazuo Inamori . He is also the chairman of Kazuo Inamori (Beijing) Management Consulting Co., Ltd. He wrote a sentence in the preface to the book, which shocked me suddenly. He said:
I am 69 years old this year and work 12-15 hours a day, and Sundays and holidays are no exception. In addition to work in the company and translation work, sometimes he flew more than ten times a month to give speeches in various places, and sometimes he gave lectures for five or six hours in a row. Because I enjoy it, I don’t feel overly tired. My love for this work has ignited my passion and has kept it going.
I think after reading this sentence, you should understand why you have not succeeded and why you cannot make money.
A 69-year-old man, a person who has achieved success, also works 12-15 hours a day, Sundays and holidays are no exception. Have you done this? How many hours do you work every day? Most of us work for 8 hours a day and are not careful. A large part of our working hours are used to fish, and we have to go off on Saturdays and Sundays, and relax and play on holidays. Don’t talk about IQ, don’t talk about talent, don’t talk about family conditions, don’t talk about resources, just because we are half apart from diligence, how can we succeed? How can you make money?
If you want to succeed in one thing and want to make money, "paying no less than anyone's efforts" is the primary condition. You must work harder, work harder, work harder, and be obsessed with it. Only then can you succeed. No one can achieve success by lying down, and no one can make money easily by drinking coffee.
is no less than anyone's efforts, which means you have to study and work for 12-15 hours a day, and the same is true for Saturdays, Sundays and holidays. Don't think that this time is too long, don't think that this condition is too harsh. In fact, this is just the basic condition for all excellent people. If you think it is too harsh, it means that you have never tried hard before. You never know how hard it is for excellent people. They are hardworking far beyond your imagination. How many times the money others make is yours, and how many times the effort others have paid is basically what you have. No one can get rich overnight. The overnight wealth you see is just the fruits that others have produced silently and hard work over the years; the chance luck of others you see is just the inevitable one after another after 99 failures. What you see is the luck that others call is the luck that the harder they work, the luck that they are, not the luck that they fall from the sky.
All the rich people I know who started from scratch have experienced the lows of their lives, have been confused, have fantasized, have been desperate, but in the most difficult time, they chose to "pay as much as anyone's efforts" and chose to fight hard on themselves. They have all used all the time except eating and sleeping to their careers and make money. Every day, after opening their eyes, what they think in their hearts, what they say in their mouths, and what they see in their eyes are all about careers, and things related to making money. They abandon all distracting thoughts and desires, and use all their energy to make money. Their working hours have exceeded all their peers, and their thinking times and depth have exceeded all their peers. They moved themselves, touched the people around them, until they moved the gods.
People who work no less than anyone else's efforts, people who work 12-15 hours a day, people who work harder than others, people who hold on to the determination to do this, people who keep thinking and reviewing and persevering, and people who persist in working hard for several years, you cannot find a reason to make them fail.
