What is your biggest feeling in 2016?
We are getting poorer every year.
When you first graduated from college, you thought to yourself, even if I get a monthly salary of 5,000 yuan, it will not be enough to spend, and saving money is even more impossible. In fact, most people take With a salary of 2,000 yuan, you are living a difficult life relying on your parents' financial support. Then you start to think about just getting through the internship period. In 2016, you are about to ask, how much money have you saved this year?
I know you will be sad to ask this question, but don’t be sad, it will get better next year, because by then... you will get used to it.
Sometimes you will ask why you are so poor?
Poverty sometimes does not mean that you don’t work hard enough, but that you have a problem with your choices. For example: During the college entrance examination, others chose their interests, but you chose the popular ones! When you go out to look for a job, you know very well that there is a joke that goes like this: "The sweat and tears you shed now are all the water in your mind when you chose your major."
Later graduated. After that, I got my first job in the media. Later, I changed jobs to several units one after another, but I still couldn't escape the original media circle. So after working for several years, my salary still hasn't increased, but there are more places to spend money.
When dressing up, you pay more attention to the quality of clothes. When socializing and entertaining guests for dinner, you also need to consider face issues. When you go home for the New Year after graduation, you can use the excuse that you have just done an internship and have no money to give New Year's money to your children at home. After working for a few years, you can't find a more suitable excuse than this, so you might as well send a red envelope to every child in your family. You don’t have to spend any other money during the New Year. You still have to buy some New Year goods for your parents. This may be the reason why you are getting poorer year by year!
A few years later, some of your friends and classmates who worked in the media with you plucked up the courage to apply for positions in Internet companies, but in the end they found that they were still assigned a role of writing articles. Of course, it is not ruled out that some media people have broken through their original role positioning, so some students have changed jobs to invest, and some students have resigned and started their own self-media communities, started their own businesses, etc. Seeing that the distance between themselves and others is getting farther and farther, I also knew that I was poor and dreamed of getting rich overnight, but I never took action and was immersed in my current world.
I also often complain: We all graduated from school at the same time and had the same starting point. Why is he so awesome now and looking so miserable?
Very awesome rich people - they always dare to give up, dare to take risks, dare to lose all their wealth in a gamble, what they want is not just enough money to spend, a big enough house, just about the same, they I just want to be the first and be able to create infinite miracles.
And there are still some people who are always worried about gains and losses, afraid of failure, and dare not take a gamble. They always feel that their current life is already very satisfying and they will always be trapped in a small pattern.
A relative of ours who lives in a small third-tier city has missed many opportunities to make a fortune because he did not dare to gamble.
My hometown is in a rural area. I have two daughters at home. I gave my daughters to my grandparents when I was young, and then concentrated on working outside to make money. In the first few years, I didn’t make much money, but the family After excluding personal expenses, there is still some left over. After a few years, I have a sum of money on hand. I can obviously use that money to buy a house in the town or city at that time, but I am afraid of using the money. At that time, I couldn't come up with any money, and I still had a large family to support, so I finally lent the money to relatives at home, and deposited the rest in the bank. Within a few years, relatives at home bought houses one after another, and later Catching up with the development of urban and rural areas, I suddenly became the second generation of demolition. When my relatives reacted, they found that the rate of making money was far lower than the rate of house prices. I had worked hard for most of my life, and in the end I still didn’t have a house that belonged to me in the county. own house.
If I had taken a gamble at that time, even if I bought a house, my life would be a little harder, but at least I would still have a house in hand.
After this incident, my relative felt regretful and decided never to lend money to others again. Depositing it in a bank was the stupidest thing to do. Later, a classmate followed him and started investing. Real estate was hotly speculated, but each person had to invest at least 500,000, so he was a little wavered. After all, it was all his savings, and he even had to mortgage the house in the town.
He thought that with 500,000, he could buy a good car and start a small business. Nowadays, there are so many investments in real estate, and I have invested relatively little money and cannot get much profit. In the end, I chose to continue working out.
As a result, a few years later, his classmate became the richest man in the village at that time. It is conservatively estimated that he still has a fortune of tens of millions. For this reason, the relatives wished they could travel back in time, even if they had to take all their belongings with them.
Opportunities are reserved for those who are prepared. Relatives always tell everyone that they did not become rich and that they missed a good opportunity. If it had been then... maybe I would be even better now. ! In fact, what he doesn't understand is: "Character determines destiny." Even if he is given another 100 such opportunities, he will still miss it.
We always like to say: "Let nature take its course", "When the soldiers come, the water will be blocked by the earth", "The ship will naturally be straight when it reaches the bridge." But for truly successful people, this means that those who fail are lazy because of themselves. Excuses.
I can do as much as I am capable of. Before I do something, I always feel that the time is not yet ripe and my ability is not enough. I am still in the process of learning and accumulating. I will wait until I figure these things out before I do it. Just do it. In fact, if you don’t try to do many things, you will never figure it out.
It’s like if you know you are poor, wait until you are rich to do many things! Eventually you will understand that when the time comes, the best time may be now.
Just like the handsome uncle in "Tumi" said to the heroine, it is not to wait until you have 20 million before buying a house, but to see if you have the courage to have 20 million. When you pay the deposit, you are buying your ambition. You will urge yourself to do whatever you can to make money and work hard. Just do what you want to do instead of waiting around.
Never feel that you are satisfied. Times are progressing and you will be eliminated if you don’t work hard. Always maintain a sense of crisis in terms of knowledge and information. Never forget to learn. There is no end to learning. If you think anyone who still reads books in this era is a fool, that may be one of the reasons why you are much poorer than others.
Except for birth, old age, illness, death and natural and man-made disasters, never accept your fate easily. Because it is all our own choice. Your destiny is in your own hands, and the result of your choice is your destiny.
In fact, when it comes to the rich people around us, most people are very disdainful. They think that rich people are generally unkind. In their eyes, they only have money, and they don’t care what they do. Everyone will think that others are fake and showing off their wealth, but you have to admit that those who have become rich through their own efforts must have their own merits. That rich person’s money did not come from the strong wind. Instead of complaining about rich people, you should learn some successful methods from rich people and improve your own situation - otherwise you will end up poor in vain.
