Many times, we are accustomed to attribute failures in life to poor business capabilities.

But in fact, many people with strong business abilities cannot succeed.

There is a famous saying that I have always kept in mind since I was in elementary school: Don’t make excuses for failure, but find ways for success.

No matter how successful your life is, if you cannot manage it correctly and be proactive, your prosperity will eventually come to nothing; no matter how unsuccessful your life is, as long as you can actively change, face it bravely, and pursue hard, you will be able to conquer the sky. Soar thousands of miles.

Therefore, your failure is really not due to lack of ability.

A good goal is half the success

For a blind ship, all winds are headwinds.

If you have a clear goal in life, you will have laid a red carpet on the road to success.

There is such a story:

When President Roosevelt’s wife was studying at Bennington College, she planned to find a job in the telecommunications industry to supplement her living expenses. His father introduced her to a good friend of his, General Sarlov, who was then chairman of the Radio Corporation of America. The general received her warmly and asked seriously: "Which job do you want to do?"

He replied: "Anything." The general said to her seriously: "There is no one type. Work is called casual." After a moment, the general looked seriously and said in the tone of an elder: "You must have a goal in life."

Life without a goal is like walking in the dark, helpless. .

If you have determined the goal of life, you can turn this goal into many small goals. By completing the small goals step by step, you will get closer and closer to the big goal of life.

Of course, the setting of each small goal must be suitable for you, and it must be a goal that you can achieve within your ability at the time.

In 2016, Wang Jianlin, chairman of Wanda Group, talked about the topic of "many young people want to be the richest man" in "A Date with Luyu" and said: "If you want to be the richest man in the world, this direction of struggle is right." , but it’s best to set a small goal that can be achieved, for example, I will earn 100 million first.”

No matter what kind of life goal is, it is worth encouraging, so on the way to achieve this goal, You must plan every step reasonably in order to succeed.

Attitude determines everything

Giggs said: Attitude determines success or failure. No matter the situation is good or bad, you must have a positive attitude.

Having a positive attitude is your weapon when fighting against difficulties. A positive attitude may not get you out of trouble, but a negative attitude will definitely drag you into deep trouble.

You have to know that it is not the setbacks that defeat you, but your mentality when facing them.

"Historical Records" records: During the Chu-Han War, Xiang Yu was defeated by Liu Bang and fled to the Wujiang River. The chief of the Wujiang Pavilion advised Xiang Yu to cross the river quickly in order to make a comeback, but Xiang Yu was disheartened. , said with a smile: "If heaven destroys me, how can I cross the river? I crossed the river to the west with eight thousand people from the east of the Yangtze River, and now no one has returned. Even if the elders from the east of the river take pity on me, how can I see them! Even if they are there, If you don't say anything, Ji Du is worthy of your heart?" So he drew his sword and killed himself.

A generation of heroes has declined since then. Where did it fall? The only word is "mentality".

The overlord Xiang Yu was unparalleled in wisdom and courage, but he lost to Liu Bang, who was a gangster at the time. Is this a lack of ability? It’s an unhealthy mentality.

When Xiang Yu was not defeated, he was conceited and underestimated the enemy and had an arrogant attitude; when he was defeated, he was ashamed and had a negative attitude, which led to the tragic scene of Wujiang committing suicide.

Confidence is a good thing, but overconfidence is not overconfidence, as it will lead to huge failure.

Let self-discipline become a way of life

A person’s degree of self-discipline determines the height of your life.

Self-disciplined people may not necessarily be excellent, but excellent people must be self-disciplined.

When many people decide to do something, they are very determined at the beginning, but after persisting for a while, they give up silently. As a result, our lives will be full of frustration. .

During this year’s epidemic, Academician Zhong Nanshan went to the front line to fight against the virus. In life, Academician Zhong Nanshan is a person with very high self-discipline. He insists on exercising for an hour every day without stopping. At the awarding ceremony of the National Medal of China, at the age of 84, he walked steadily and was full of energy. This is the benefit brought by strong self-discipline.

Colleague A is a person who has no self-discipline at all. He procrastinates, is inefficient, and is often late. The leader talked to me many times, but there was no improvement at all.

The company requires you to write a DingTalk diary every day to provide feedback on the day's work. Little A can't finish it until almost 12 o'clock every night, and many times it's not sent until the next morning.

A colleague asked him: "Why can't you finish this before getting off work? Wouldn't it delay your time to get off work?" But he replied: "Anyway, just send it out on the same day. I don't think time is important. ?"

Once, he negotiated with a large customer, and the customer made an appointment to sign the contract tomorrow. But he didn't sort out the contract before getting off work, so he wanted to take it home and sort it out slowly. After the contract was completed, the table was piled with documents. He felt a little tired, so he went to sleep.

I woke up in a daze the next day, took a document from the table and rushed to the company. When I was about to sign the contract, I realized that I had taken the wrong document. There is no other way but to secure the customer first, and then rush home to get the materials. After going back and forth, several hours were wasted. Needless to say, the expressions on the boss's and the client's faces were unbearable. After working for several years, he has been a small employee of the company, and the leader no longer arranges for him to do any important work.

There is a saying in the workplace: A few more minutes of preparation last night will save a few hours of trouble today. What I mean is that people who are self-disciplined will have a lot less trouble every day. People who don’t know how to self-discipline will have troubles everywhere in their lives.

It may not be easy for a self-disciplined person to succeed, but it will not be easy for a person without self-discipline.

Your failure is really not due to lack of ability

Everyone’s ability is like everyone’s height, different heights and different abilities Different things can be done.

If you fail, don't blindly doubt your ability.

Explore the reason, whether there is a problem with your goals or an improper mentality. At the same time, you must continue to strengthen your self-discipline.

With all three, the road to success is no longer out of reach.

Don’t rush, take your time, that’s the fastest shortcut.

For those who are determined, things will come true. If the cauldron sinks the boat, a hundred and two Qin passes will eventually belong to Chu; if a person works hard, God will not let him down; if he sleeps on his salary and tastes his gall, three thousand Yue Jia can swallow Wu.

I hope that you who are confused can adjust yourself in time, get out of the gloomy days as soon as possible, and achieve your great goals as soon as possible.
