"Interest makes success."
When Buffett's children are faced with the problem of choosing a job after studying and living, Buffett has also provided them with similar reference opinions: choosing an industry that interests them is much more meaningful than investing in an industry that can't stimulate your enthusiasm for making money. There are many occupations in history, most of which have disappeared. Those who survive should have their rationality and social needs. Therefore, we have to believe in 360 lines, and each line will be the best. Every industry has a future and can create its own unique value. In a sense, all industries are promising. Therefore, when choosing a career, we should first consider whether we are really interested.
Specifically, the impact of interest on career planning is mainly manifested in the following three aspects:
First, interest is an important basis for career choice.
Second, interest can improve your work efficiency and give full play to your talents.
Third, interest is an important factor to ensure career stability and success in the workplace-a strong interest in a career is an incubator for intellectual development.
So various interests can make people good at coping with changing environment. If a person can choose a career according to his hobbies, his initiative will be brought into full play. Even if you are tired and hard, you are always cheerful and happy; Even though there are many difficulties, I will never be discouraged, but I will try to overcome them and even forget to eat and sleep. Therefore, when choosing a long-term and stable career, you should not only know what kind of work ability you have, but also know what kind of work you are interested in. Only by combining ability and interest can we plan our career well and succeed.
"Don't wait for luck to solve the problem for you."
A person's dream is like a zongzi scattered in the field of life. Success and harvest require our constant cultivation and people's hard sweat. Some people dream of having a good job, making a fortune and getting ahead every day, but they just don't want to study hard and work hard. In the end, we can only draw water with a sieve. A happy life is not achieved by illusory dreams. Don't expect to enjoy success at any time Only by working hard and creating in a down-to-earth way can we turn our wishes into reality.
It takes some luck to start a business, create wealth and succeed in life, but luck is by no means the only and primary condition for creating wealth. A person's life is not decided by others, let alone fate. What kind of life you will lead in the future depends entirely on your present. Don't believe that you are not born to make money. Don't believe that you are not as good as the Lakers. We can't decide where we come from, so that we can control our own destiny.
Great things in the world must be done in the details. Details are as important as human cells, and in some cases, they can really determine success or failure. If you patiently do an ordinary detail in your work, you will have a chance to succeed before others.
Buffett believes that we should pay 100% attention to the work, so as to do the work well. To this end, he often reminds employees to pay attention to the details of their work and do their best in every detail. Buffett always strives for perfection when analyzing the business operation of enterprises.
Buffett's daughter Susie opened a knitwear shop in Obama. In order to better develop the store, she decided to promote a competent assistant from the staff to help her manage the business. After graduating from Cape University, she came to work in a shop in Suqian. Because of her skilled business skills and hard work, Susie values her very much and thinks that she is a plastic talent and is ready to entrust her with a heavy responsibility.
A few days before the appointment, Susie happened to come to Cape's office and found that Cape didn't pick it up and throw it into the trash can, but kicked the waste paper that fell to the ground aside. This is just a small effort! So Susie pays special attention to Cape's behavior. She found that every day Cape not only didn't clean the table, but also put the tableware casually, not in the designated place, and he even spit everywhere. Susie was influenced by her father since childhood and knew the importance of details. Not only does she doubt that an employee who doesn't even pay attention to the most basic work details can become an excellent manager? How can we be highly responsible for the enterprise? It was Susie who changed her mind temporarily and never used Cape again.
In a sense, details are the truest test of a person's comprehensive quality, and also the characteristics that distinguish him from others. Many times, the peculiar effects of these details make you stand out from the fierce competition and become the envy of everyone. Therefore, in order to become an excellent employee, it is necessary to refine the work and perfect every link, and achieve 100%.
Many people are dismissive of the details of their work. They think there are better ways to show their abilities. They complain all day that their leaders are blind, dissatisfied with the simple work they are doing now, and try their best to find opportunities to prove their extraordinary. They scoffed at the failure of their colleagues, turned a blind eye to the things at hand, and the final result was a complete failure.
In fact, every day's work is the best opportunity to show your extraordinary. Shop assistants clean everything, bus drivers keep their cars clean, and shop assistants put books on the shelves neatly. Such a trivial matter will become a habit if it can be supported and persisted every day. When you are used to doing every detail in your work perfectly, you are saving more capital for your future, and you can achieve your goals faster.
In our work, there are always some seemingly insignificant little things, but it is these small things that determine your success or failure, because this is a meticulous treatment of small things, which can help you develop good work habits and create a broader tomorrow for your career. Only those who work from beginning to end are the darlings in the workplace. It should be recognized that the quality of your work often determines the quality of your life. You should be strict with yourself at work. If you can do your best, you are not allowed to be the second best. If you can complete 100%, you can't just complete 90%. No matter whether your salary is high or low, you should keep this good work style.
Well, life advice is over. Next time I'll talk about Buffett's advice to children.
