Visited a senior with assets of over 100 million, he solemnly told me that if ordinary people can understand the following two sentences, they may not be able to achieve an annual income of millions, but at least they can reach a higher level. The first sentence is: 'Exchange labor for money, be down-to-earth; use your brain to seek wealth, be flexible and adaptable; use money to make money, be ruthless; earn money with resources, be smooth; earn money with people, be open-minded.' Just as I was thinking, the senior revealed the core of rich people with the second sentence: 'Ordinary people must have sufficient resources and confidence to dare to do things. The thinking mode of rich people is like sailing against the current, unique. They set grand goals first, and then mobilize all resources to serve themselves on this path. If there are not enough people, they find people; if there is not enough money, they borrow money. In the mindset of achieving success, even enemies can be brought together for cooperation. What's more impressive is that rich people are good at breaking down big goals into a series of specific and feasible action steps. These steps are further refined into new small goals, progressing step by step until every detail is clear and touchable. In the end, any goal seems within reach and can be executed effortlessly. At the same time, rich people will precisely match resources for each action point, and the execution power in this state is extraordinary. At this point, it seems that the senior brother has seen through my thoughts, and he continues. There is a distinct watershed between the questions of rich people and ordinary people: ordinary people are often trapped in an endless 'preparation cycle'. When you invite them to work together, they always refuse on the grounds of insufficient resources, funds, and connections. In their minds, they dare to do things only when everything is ready. In contrast, rich people are like being in a constant state of actual combat, maintaining a 'feeding the battle with the battle' mentality. They act and integrate resources while overcoming obstacles and actual combat is their daily routine. So how can ordinary people who only talk on paper keep up with such action-oriented people? The thinking of rich people has little to do with whether they have money or not. Once you have such a mindset, wealth will naturally come. The accumulation of wealth is definitely not accumulated slowly over a long period of time, but by seizing opportunities, you can obtain the wealth of others' lifetime in two or three years. So when you are making the most money, don't relax, grasp it, otherwise you don't know when the next opportunity will come. Time cost is the most expensive. Smart people know how to make good use of resources, whether it is investing in learning or entrusting experts to solve problems. When faced with areas where they are not good at, they should not stubbornly insist on solving them by themselves, as this may often result in half the effort. Sometimes, spending money to find someone to solve it is the most cost-effective. Not many of those who start a business and make money are all-rounders, but they all understand the principle of 'specialization in the profession'. Cut off contact with people whose frequency is not synchronized with yours as soon as possible. Because for every ounce of hesitation you have, there is an additional risk of being led astray. If the current situation is not what you want, then be brave enough to step out of your current comfort zone. Stay firm and keep moving forward, constantly pursue and approach goals that go beyond your current circle.
