First, ray? Dario and his book Principles
Rui was born in an ordinary middle-class family in the United States. He was fired by his boss and unemployed at home. Dario is a famous legend in American financial circles. He is the founder of the hedge fund company Bridgewater. The company has a history of 40 years. At the beginning, it was still a humble small company, and now it has developed into a well-known private company with a management fund of more than 654.38+05 billion dollars and a profit of more than 45 billion dollars, ranking fifth in the list of private companies in the United States. No one in bridgewater can achieve such results? Dario's management philosophy.
Opening the book Principles, the author said: No matter how successful I have been in my life, the main reason is not how much I know, but what I should do without knowledge. The most important thing I have learned in my life is a principle-based lifestyle, which helps me find out what the truth is and how to act on it. , Rui? Dario explained this successful idea with his own experience.
Second, life should not be spinning in the same place, but should find its direction in confusion.
It is said that a woman stayed in a baby's brain for three years. After getting married and having children, I decided to return to the workplace, but suddenly I found that the outside world had changed too much. Originally, I planned my career before I got married, or I was full of malice for a young mother like me. I applied for a job again and again, and was ruthlessly rejected by the employer again and again. After numerous unsuccessful job hunting, I began to become very confused.
Countless nights, I can't sleep all night. I tossed and turned in a hurry to go to the hospital. I casually submitted my resume online. Needless to say, when I cast my net in the sea, I really received some work calls, so I excitedly applied for a job and found a new job smoothly. But after working for a long time, I found that these jobs were not suitable for me, and soon I was constantly experiencing unemployment, job hunting, employment and so on. Waiting for a blank future? After learning from a painful experience, I decided to break the spell. After resting at home for a while, I finally realized that I should also do design. After all, I have been engaged in this industry for a long time after graduation.
Second, life should not be a retreat in the face of difficulties, but an effort to persevere in difficulties.
Design is a very hard industry. There are too many twists and turns from getting the customer's letter of intent to handing over the customer's satisfactory solution Moreover, many design concepts have changed greatly since I left this industry for so long. So I usually come up with a solution and feel good about myself. I sent a sample to my customer, but it was ruthlessly rejected. Then I can only communicate with customers constantly, and I have worked overtime countless times.
During that time, I was under great pressure. On the one hand, I have children to support, on the other hand, I am busy with work. So I often retreat in my mind and say to myself over and over again: I'd better go home, educate my husband and children well and be a good wife and mother. But I really want to resign, and I am unwilling, so my mood has been very contradictory.
There is a small bamboo forest near my home. Bamboo grows tall and lush, but I know that the growth process of these bamboos is not easy. It took them four years to take root in the ground, but they only grew 30 centimeters. But after the fifth year, they can grow at a rate of 30 cm per day until the height of 15 m in the sixth week. So, every time I want to give up, I will.
Third, life should grow up by making mistakes, and then make breakthroughs in thinking.
From a successful plan to its perfect implementation, there will always be many unexpected accidents and mistakes. At first, faced with these problems, I was always at a loss. Later, I wrote down these small mistakes in my notebook. When I am free, I often go through these notes and think about how to avoid these things next time. If I can't avoid them, how can I solve them? If I can't think of a solution, I will pay special attention to what my colleagues did and what experience I can get from it. I am also growing up through constant mistakes. After more than a year's experience, my job is much more comfortable now.
Maybe we'll never be like Rui? Business tycoons like Dario and Li Yanhong have a high level of career, and it is impossible to encounter great difficulties as they did when starting a business, but the principles have the same enlightenment for us ordinary people.
