Take the road that others have not walked, and get a braver you

Mr. Lu Xun once said that there is no road in the world, but when more people walk, there is a road.

In half a century since Kazuo Inamori started his business at Kyocera, he has continued to develop products ranging from ceramic components to various semiconductor electronic packaging components, from solar power generation systems to copiers, mobile phones, etc. He has launched continuous challenges in his career field and achieved results that ordinary people cannot achieve.

Many of the roads he took were new roads that others had not taken, and only he could understand the hardships involved. He once made this analogy: I was walking on a muddy path in the field, and...if the sole of my foot slipped, I would fall into the paddy field....I accidentally glanced to the side, and there was a lot of traffic on the smooth paved road there. If you embark on that road, it will be comfortable and convenient...

Why doesn't Inamori Kazuo take such a comfortable road? The reason is simple. If you do the same thing and follow the same path as others, it will be difficult to obtain something more outstanding. The path others have taken will not leave anything valuable waiting for you to discover.

So, Mr. Kazuo Inamori chose a new road that no one had ever traveled before. As he said in his book "Dry Method": "In fact, those muddy roads that no one dares to walk, although difficult to walk, lead to an unimaginably bright and brilliant future."

Don't take the flat road, walk alone on the road that no one has traveled. Maybe this road is very lonely and you may get lost on this road.

No success is simple. Only those who are lonely, brave and not afraid of the darkness can get more things that others do not have.
