For example, there are thousands of industries in the world, and you can make money if you do well. Every day, enterprises go bankrupt and new enterprises are born. Businessmen who run any kind of industry should be familiar with their main business and study thoroughly before they can become the boss of the industry.
As a mature businessman, you should learn to give up and not easily enter those unfamiliar industries. Others are making money, don't be jealous, otherwise, today's investment means tomorrow's collapse!
Businessmen should never think that they can do any business with a little money and want to make money in any industry!
As a leader, it is the same. Some leaders like to be in power, and they should do everything by themselves. The result is that people are tired enough and things are not done well.
Eisenhower said in his book "Expedition to Europe" that Marshall "looks down on those who are hands-on, and he thinks that those who are immersed in trivial matters are unable to deal with more important problems in the war." He said that the military principle of the United States is: "Assign tasks to the theater commander, provide him with a certain number of troops, and interfere as little as possible in the implementation of his plan." If his results are not satisfactory, "then the appropriate way is not to persuade, warn and torture him, but to replace him with another commander."
Eisenhower's "trivial matters" and "interference as little as possible" mentioned here are all categories of doing something wrong. The commander of the theater does those trivial things in order to focus on the major events of the entire theater and do something about the overall situation; The superior commander-in-chief should not interfere in the affairs of the war zone, precisely to study bigger strategic issues and make a difference at a higher level and in a broader sense. Therefore, it may be said that doing something is not doing anything.
Many people dream of having a good job, which can bring wealth, fame, power and status, and be respected. But in fact, in the fierce market competition, no job is really a hot industry, and no matter what kind of job can provide complete protection. So how to keep changing and get a more practical and ideal job? You might as well try the following suggestions:
First of all, catch a big fish with a long line. No job is always hot. When choosing an industry, we should fully consider our own interests, abilities, employment running-in period and the future prospects of our major.
Second, survive by intelligence. You need to keep charging, not only to be a "specialist", but also to be a compound talent.
Thirdly, it is understandable that individuals dominate their own lives and choose well-paid jobs, but they cannot give up other pursuits, such as free time, healthy body and happy family. Jobs that are relatively free and can give full play to one's talents will be more popular.
Doing something is conducive to concentrating efforts, using precious and limited resources where they are most needed, and striving for the best benefits; It is conducive to concentrating manpower, material resources and financial resources to do bigger and more important things.
Doing something and not doing something requires comprehensiveness and foresight. There are countless vain and lazy people in their hearts who can't do one thing well and do one thing wrong. With the overall situation in mind, we can prioritize, make correct choices, plan and design scientifically. Forward-looking means thinking long-term, and treating your choices with a high sense of responsibility and mission. Obviously, short-term behavior and quick success are incompatible with this.
Doing something and not doing something requires self-awareness, mobilizing all positive factors and liberating wisdom. If you are indifferent and rigid, the situation will not change.
