Rockefeller once said to his son: "I don't live by God's luck, but I must have planned luck. I believe that planning will affect luck, and even under any circumstances, it can successfully affect luck."
Rockefeller believes that luck is a blessing that is difficult to get rid of in the process of labor creation. Each of us is the designer and caster of our own destiny. luck requires good planning and careful design. However, first, two prerequisites need to be considered: first, you must clearly know your goals; second, you must know what you have now.
Someone is living on the top of the mountain, and some are living at the foot of the mountain.
Rockefeller is an ambitious and very courageous person. Before he became the number one oil person in the United States, the refining industry in the United States was in chaos, and the refiners were in a state of being independent, vicious competition, and in a difficult situation. Many refineries are on the verge of bankruptcy, and Rockefeller is no exception.
But this did not make Rockefeller retreat, but instead gave him a bolder plan. Eliminate competition in the industry, turn competition into cooperation, and attribute all oil refining businesses to your own. Rockefeller took Cleveland as his base camp and first annexed a local company, Graca Byrne, a well-known rival. Then he conquered the refiners in Philadelphia , Pittsburgh and other places, and eventually became the masters of the refining industry across the United States.
In many people's eyes, Rockefeller's behavior is immoral, but in his own words, all this is business competition and has nothing to do with conscience. If he hadn't done all this at the beginning, but had just lamented that he was not lucky and followed the flow, then he would have been conquered by others.
In fact, everything in life is worthy of being treated carefully, so that you will not miss it in vain when luck comes.
I know someone who made a lot of money in the past two years, bought a car and a house. Everyone around him envied him and said that he had a great fortune. But he said, "You only see the money I have made in the past two years, but you have not seen the hard work I have been in the previous ten years. In those ten years, I made no money, I have suffered a lot of eyeballs and under much pressure. If you know, you wouldn't say that I am lucky."
Life in one's life, instead of waiting for the arrival of luck, it is better to take the initiative and plan your own luck.
