01 Books can change cognition

Many times it’s not that we can’t make money, it’s because we can’t earn money outside of what we know.

Read more books, read the books of people who have become rich, pay more attention to finance and economics, quickly capture money-making information and develop a gold-absorbing system, and you will slowly become rich.

02 Equivalent exchange is the essence of business

Many people who have done sales know very well that the mode of making money in this world is almost equal exchange, and the essence of all business is precisely because of this.

An office worker who exchanges his time and energy for money; A boss is exchanging money for his own products or technology.

If you think about it carefully, the people at the bottom of the world exchange their physical strength and time for wealth, the middle people exchange their brainpower and skills for wealth, and the people at the top exchange power and resources for wealth.

If you want to become rich, you should jump out of the bottom earning model and master the ability of the upper class to exchange wealth.

03 Optimize circles

Liu Yuanyuan, a student from a poor family, once said that because she studied at Peking University, she had a better circle.

Her friends are all from prestigious schools, and her brothers and sisters are all graduates of Peking University, and there are many good resources to use in her circle, so no matter how she mixes, she will not be too bad.

The best chance for children from poor families to change their circle is to get a ticket to a good university.

However, in the cognition of many ordinary people, they rarely care about their own circles, they have no good starting point, they have been confined to ordinary circles, and gradually live a mediocre life.

I think that there may be many people in life who have not been able to seize the opportunity to get admission to a good university like Liu Yuanyuan and have been shunted to ordinary circles.

But we still have to continue to work hard to slowly change the circle, to get close to excellent and resourceful people, and slowly change our lives.

04 Stay awake at all times

Many people once had dreams, but then gradually lost their eyes and forgot what kind of person they wanted to be and what kind of life they wanted to live.

We should know ourselves better than anyone else, but for many people, it’s precisely the hardest thing to do.

I was once determined to achieve economic freedom by writing about self-media, but then I was gradually disturbed by the trivialities and ups and downs of life, and occasionally I was overwhelmed and wondered whether I should continue like this……

Life can easily make us lose our way, slowly accept mediocrity, fail again and again, and choose to accept ordinariness if we are not firm enough.

When I calmed down and kept analyzing, and gradually sobered up, I remembered the flag I had set for myself, which was to achieve economic freedom through writing.

I should always be awake and remember it all the time, so that I don’t waste time hesitating and wandering, forgetting what I really need to do and deviate from the original trajectory.

If you stay awake at all times, you won’t go down the wrong path, and if you continue to work your goals, you will live the way you want to one day.

05 Time equals money

Human energy is limited, especially after the age of 30, time will become more and more precious.

Just like me now, I want to work hard to achieve myself and take care of my children at the same time, I can’t break a self in half to accomplish many things, I can only piece together in a limited life.

If I could have known the painful realizations of my time before the age of 30, I would have known how to cherish time as if I were my life.

Time is money, even higher than money. If you have wasted a lot of opportunities that you should have worked to change your fate, you will spend more time, energy, and pain to change later.

Always remember that cherishing time is the most important thing to do at the moment.

06 Execution is greater than everything

If you want to be a kind of person, you have to change with actions, not just think, talk, fish for three days and dry nets for two days.

Although the track of self-media writing is very crowded, those who practice step by step, endure the hardships that ordinary people can’t endure, and have super execution have all lived what they want.

There are always a few successful people, and there are many people who stop halfway through, and many people want to see the results before they start.

If you want to achieve economic freedom in the track of self-media writing, you should first ask yourself whether you update it on time every day, whether you update more than three articles a day, and whether you insist on reading books to force yourself to enter.

It’s easy to have a dream, but most people often lose out on execution.

People who can live the life they want have extraordinary executive power, and if they also want to live the life of others, they need to replicate the same execution.

07 Keep reviewing yourself

Constantly reviewing yourself, just like looking at yourself in the mirror, finding something wrong in time and correcting it, you will slowly change.

08 Be a long-termist

During the period when China Telecom launched PHS and achieved rapid development, Ren Zhengfei did not choose to develop PHS business, but chose 3G.

Eight years later, when the company that made its fortune on PHS gradually disappeared, the 3G market that Huawei insisted on began to affect global communications.

It is Ren Zhengfei’s insistence on long-termism and not being tempted by the temporary interests of PHS’s business that Huawei’s position in the world is what it is today.

Warren Buffett once said, “There is no such thing as “opportunism” or “crashism” in the dictionary of long-termists.

We often live a mediocre life without much change, essentially because we don’t have the patience to be a long-termist, and it’s too easy to drift with the crowd in a life full of temptations and temptations.

Looking at those who are getting richer and richer, they know early on what they want and what they want to become, and they stick to it for a long time, and they will amaze everyone after a few years.

If you are determined to become a long-termist, you will slowly reap the results you want.
