Rule number one: You can't eat your face.
Beggars are probably the most faceless people in the world. For beggars, face is the biggest natural enemy for survival. What's the use of saving face if you don't eat, wear or even die? Therefore, the first priority of being a beggar is to put down face. Beggars have to lose face before they can eat.
As for us, only by paying less attention to the so-called face can we make money. For example, Li Ka-shing, who is shameless, started his career by selling from door to door and was abused. I don't know how many people are promoting him now. So many times, it is really a wise saying to die for pride and live for suffering!
Rule 2: Everyone is a god of wealth.
Beggars never offend people. They tell everyone to be good, because in his eyes, everyone is a god of wealth, and anyone can reward him with three points and twenty cents.
The biggest taboo in business is to offend people. In fact, not only can't offend people, but also be kind to others everywhere, laugh at people everywhere, and even curry favor with people. All in all, it is more flowers and less thorns; There are many friends, and the old saying cannot be wrong!
Rule 3: There is nothing wrong with greed.
Beggars are never satisfied. If you give him a bowl of rice, he will ask you for another half bowl of vegetables, and you are likely to meet his requirements in hesitation. It is because of greed and dissatisfaction that he can eat his stomach.
Seeking second best again and again is the philosophy of bosses. In fact, it is the same as the greed of beggars, and it is all for the maximization of interests. Bosses will never be satisfied with three points, but four, five or even seven or eight points. If you think about it from another angle, greed is not satisfied with the status quo.
Ford, the car king, has a classic saying: If a person thinks he has made great achievements and stops, then his failure is in sight. Similarly, Ford also said that he was used to seeing many so-called successful people and worked hard at the beginning, but in the end he stopped because of complacency and was eliminated. Or to put it more popularly, it is that "greed" is hard to get enough, so that you can earn a lot of money.
Rule 4: Have a clear goal.
Beggars don't have so many airs, and his goal is usually clear, that is, to eat two bowls of rice and three pieces of meat at noon. Once you have a goal, everything will be much easier. If the benefactor asks him what he wants, he will answer truthfully, so that he will not beg for a bag of rice but still be hungry.
If you are asked what your future goal is, many people may say making money. Ask how much money you earn, and you may answer a lot. But is a lot of money the goal? Actually, it is not. The goal is to quantify indicators, such as 1 10,000,110,000. The idea of a lot of money is actually difficult to realize, because without a specific standard in our mind, you will not have a legal task and make a plan. Only by concretizing our goals can we achieve them. So we can see that all enterprises will always write a clear number on their goals for the next year.
There is such a view in the psychology of creating wealth. What a person defines himself as, he will unconsciously work hard according to that person's behavior. The more specific he thinks, the closer he gets.
The clearer the goal, the greater the chance of success, which is a truth that has been tested by practice!
Rule 5: Find your market quickly.
Beggars are the best people to do market research. Where people are more charitable and where people are more petty, he can find out in half a day. They always know which street to sit on and what kind of people to reach out to, even stupid beggars, and they know it all in Yemen. The only thing that can teach them cleverness is the degree of hunger.
People who want to make money should know what they are suitable for, where their market is and who can make money for themselves. Are you suitable for sales or production, hardware industry or catering industry? Only by knowing your own characteristics and personality and positioning accurately can you give full play to your strengths. It's like Bill Gates knew that his specialty was computers, so he devoted himself to this line. In fact, knowing what you are suitable for, you naturally know where your market is. As for who can make money for us, it comes from practice, from empirical analysis, not from imagination. This conclusion is not immutable.
To sum up, the five beggars' rules of making money: you can't eat your face, everyone is a god of wealth, and there is nothing wrong with greed. You should have specific goals and find your market quickly.
In fact, if you want to make money, the most important thing is to have a solid knowledge and cultural foundation. Otherwise, such a small method cannot succeed, just like floating in mid-air, it is in danger of falling at any time. Of course, the five rules are just some suggestions for everyone. I hope I can get some enlightenment from them, which will help me make money in the future and avoid some bumps.
