The most important thing to make money is patience.
Patience turns into steel, and small patience leads to great disaster. All these tell us that endurance plays a vital role in many critical moments of life, and even determines the future development. Patience can also exercise a person's will, which is an essential factor in a person's character. The experience given by a rich man to others is also: patience is the most important thing to make money, especially when business fails, the company goes bankrupt, the losses are extremely heavy, and even you want to commit suicide, you must be patient and never give up fighting spirit. We should endure the pain and believe that we will succeed one day.
10 years ago, Huang Zhijian was a young and promising cadre of Wenzhou Price Bureau. Because he couldn't stand the steady and boring life and didn't want to see his 50-year-old life when he was 20, he gave up his position as a civil servant, which is still popular today.
1989, Huang Zhijian, who wanted to do trade, came to Spain for the first time. Unexpectedly, his entrepreneurial journey began in the kitchen of a foreign Chinese restaurant. Making a living between a pool soaked with piles of chopsticks and a smoky stove is undoubtedly a painful torment for Huang Zhijian, who is proud of himself. He runs around restaurants, language schools and houses like a clockwork robot every day, holding on helplessly, hoping to find a new turn in life.
Since Huang Zhijian borrowed money to open a small shop dealing in Christmas presents, his situation has not changed substantially. He still remembers the embarrassment of pulling a cart to purchase goods and being rejected by the bus in full view. In those days, he only ate one meal a day, and breakfast was free. He ate some biscuits for lunch. At night, he rolls gift certificates at home until late at night, just because the same gift certificate can be sold for 30 cents in a roll and only 20 cents in a loose one ... he can earn almost 65,438+0 cents.
Huang Zhijian said: "The greatest pain is still spiritual. It is not easy to learn to endure dependence on others and learn to obey others. " At the same time, that life changed his view on many things, made him mature a lot, and even affected his character. From then on, he learned to be tolerant, considerate, patient and persistent ... With the passage of time and the arrival of success, Huang Zhijian still called that experience a painful treasure in his life.
Based on the world, patience; Be kind to others, be patient and be safe. A businessman must weigh himself first if he wants to make money. In the face of all-round torture from body to spirit, do you have such a "determination" and "endurance" that you don't care about yourself? Because businessmen have to bear more difficulties, setbacks and even pain and loneliness than ordinary people. In the face of losing all their money and rolling in financial resources, many people can't control themselves.
An important reason why Wenzhou people can make money is patience. In order to make money, they endure all kinds of pains: wandering around the world, leaving their wives and children homesick; Physical pain of doing all the dirty work; Repeatedly suffering from white eyes and cynicism, and so on. It can be said that many Wenzhou businessmen got their first bucket of gold through all kinds of patience.
Wu Shaoda was born in a farmer's home in Zhenglou, Pingyang County. 1982, he went to Anhui alone, and after learning about the local market, he began to operate printing, design, arts and crafts gifts and other businesses. 1988 opened a shop in Fuyang, Anhui. Every day, regardless of the wind and rain, he rides a tricycle full of red certificates to local major shopping malls to sell, and sleeps in a rented room with an area of only 15 square meters at night.
In such a difficult environment, Wu Shaoda endured, persisted and waited, day after day, year after year, and endured for five years. In the meantime, he broke five tricycles.
Hard work pays off. In 1993, he finally accumulated more than1000000 yuan of capital. After earning this money, Wu Shao went to Yichang and cooperated with others to run an advertising company. 1996, Wu Shaoda started a decoration design company by himself. Because of his hard-working spirit, honest and trustworthy management mode, and the company introduced first-class equipment and technology from Wenzhou, he quickly took over a lot of business and quickly stood out among more than 200 printing enterprises in Yichang.
In 2004, Wu Shaoda and three fellow villagers bought the original Three Gorges Market for more than 40 million yuan and founded Yichang Xinchang Market. This is the largest and most diverse small commodity distribution center in Yichang. In June 2005, he requisitioned 249 mu of land next to Xinchang market, and prepared to build the market into the largest logistics and storage center in eastern Chongqing and western Hubei. In addition, Wu Shaoda also plans to build a 30,000-square-meter Wenzhou business building and a three-star Wenzhou hotel in Yichang.
"Chew on vegetable roots and do great things". Hard environment can temper people's will and increase their ability. If a person can pass the test of hard environment, his future development will naturally be much easier. This is Wu Shaoda, and it is also the reason why many Wenzhou people can expand their business step by step. In fact, what you see on the surface is the endurance of harsh environment. In fact, another kind of transaction is also going on silently. What you pay is hard work and patience, and what you get is strong will and flexibility. Not everyone can get it and is willing to exchange it. This is the choice of the wise.
Withstand temptation and loneliness.
"Patience" actually has many meanings, including forbearance, persistence, self-improvement, perseverance ... It refers to being able to bear the burden of humiliation in various environments, including physical tolerance, verbal tolerance, emotional tolerance, environmental tolerance, waiting tolerance and so on. For businessmen, patience with temptation may be particularly important, which is more important than other patience.
Nan Cunhui, a famous businessman in Wenzhou, suggested that young people should resist temptation and loneliness.
Nan Cunhui said: I met many young friends in the process of starting a business and even developing. They are all impatient, even a little eager for quick success, eager to become famous, eager to achieve their fame, eager to make money and make a fortune, and so on. I think if you really want to do it well, you still need to use an addition and a subtraction. In order to be strong and refined, we must use addition to concentrate all the resource advantages on the main business and integrate all the resource advantages. Only by doing well can we become stronger and bigger. At the same time, you have to resist the temptation. There are too many temptations from the external environment, so you need to subtract them by subtraction. If you want to settle accounts, you can settle accounts by addition and subtraction. If you want to settle accounts, you have to settle accounts. There are many young friends now, and they will encounter many temptations when starting a business. What should we do at this time? I think China has profound historical and cultural connotations, including the word "willing". If you want to get it, you must remember to give up, because if you give up, you can get it!
Nan Cunhui not only said so, but also did so.
1984, when many workshops and small factories producing low-voltage electrical appliances sprang up like mushrooms after rain in Liushi town, Nan Cunhui couldn't hold back any longer. He found some friends, borrowed money everywhere together, and finally built a workshop-style "exquisite" Kai Guanchang in a broken house.
Four people worked day and night for a month, and the first money they earned was only 40 yuan. All three partners were extremely depressed, but Nan Cunhui was extremely excited. He felt that he had finally found a way to excavate wealth. He comforted his companion and said, "Don't worry, I have a secret weapon. Follow me and everyone will make money. " What is Nan Cunhui's secret weapon?
In Wenzhou in the early 1980s, many people were short-sighted and could not stand the temptation, so all low-voltage electrical appliances were fake and shoddy. Nan Cunhui has never forgotten what his father often told him: Even if a centipede has thousands of feet, it can only take one step at a time and do things down to earth.
Therefore, Nan Cunhui did not follow the trend to make money, but spared no expense to recruit engineers from Shanghai People's Electric Appliance Factory. When these engineers came to "refine" Kai Guanchang, they were all surprised. In their eyes, small factories are worse than workshops. And even the most basic tools and molds are not available, so many engineers come and go back. However, several engineers were moved by Nan Cunhui's sincerity and stayed.
An engineer once warned Nan Cunhui: "If you want to get rich, you won't be worse than others. If you want to create a' brand', then you must be tolerant of loneliness. " In fact, at this time, Nan Cunhui had a steelyard in his heart: every household should use electrical products, and the quality is related to the life of users, so the quality must pass.
A few years later, the production of low-voltage electrical appliances in Liushi fell into a trough due to quality problems, and the once bustling streets suddenly became deserted. However, "fine" products sell well all over the country, and the output value of 1989 reaches more than1100,000 yuan. During this period, the relevant departments have cleaned up and rectified the low-voltage electrical appliance market in Liushi for three times, and "refining" Kai Guanchang easily passed the customs every time because of its excellent quality. High-quality products won word of mouth, occupied the market, and also allowed Nan Cunhui and "Excellence" to complete the initial capital accumulation.
"Bear calm for a while and take a step back." To be a man, we should cultivate a kind of generosity, and knowing how to be patient is beneficial to our career. Since businessmen seek money, no matter what happens, even if it is against their original intention, they must control their emotions and not have excessive words and deeds, otherwise they are likely to give up all their efforts.
Wenzhou people know the truth of self-denial, especially when selling products, they always have a smiling face. No matter how unhappy the other party is, no matter how embarrassing the scene is, even in the face of other people's anger, Wenzhou people will smile and show a frank and friendly attitude towards each other. At first, some people thought that Wenzhou people were poor, but they didn't know that Wenzhou people earned money. Moreover, only after more than ten years, those who laugh at Wenzhou people have to admire: Wenzhou people are really good! This is the first level of patience, and patience like Nan Cunhui is a deeper level of patience. For the goal, endure loneliness, endure the temptation of immediate interests and wait for great success. This is the real success.
Philip's Ninjutsu
Nine times out of ten, life is not satisfactory, and career will not be smooth sailing. Ups and downs are a normal state. On the road of doing business, businessmen sometimes encounter prosperity and sometimes adversity; Some people have more prosperity, while others have more adversity. Everyone wants to meet prosperity, but adversity is what everyone doesn't want to meet.
However, what should I do in adversity? Only patience! Everyone has a stage, and there is nothing to do but endure. In order to survive and develop better in the future, we must be patient, patient and patient again at this stage!
Philips is one of the largest electronics companies in Europe and the world, with annual sales of 32.3 billion euros in 200/kloc-0, ranking first in Europe. But it is this famous Philips company that has gone through life and death three times in the history of development.
Every level, because you can bite your teeth and endure, the result is not only a close call, but also greater development.
The first time was at the beginning of the factory. At the beginning of its establishment, Philips' operation was quite bumpy. The reason is that Chlad, who runs the company, is a layman in management. 1895, Chlad felt that the situation was really difficult to maintain, wanted to liquidate and declared bankruptcy. At this moment, my brother Anton stood up. He disagreed with his brother's strategic decision, decided to stick to it, and resolutely went to Russia with product samples, opening up the market in Russia, which had just begun to popularize electric lights. After that, Anton sold Philips products to other European countries, and since then Philips has made great strides.
The second time was after the First World War. After World War I, a worldwide economic crisis put Philips in a critical situation. At this time, someone proposed to buy Philips, but it was rejected by the Anton brothers. They struggled to support and wait, and finally let Philips recover and rally.
The third time was after World War II. The artillery fire of World War II left few factories in Philips, and Blietz, the chairman, was also arrested and imprisoned. After the war, it was widely believed that Philips would go bankrupt completely.
However, Blietz led his family and employees to rebuild the company and endured humiliation in a difficult environment. As a result, by the mid-1950s of 19, Philips had become one of the three super enterprises in the Netherlands.
The three hardships not only did not destroy Philips, but because of their superhuman "patience", they gradually became an international big enterprise.
How can I see a rainbow without experiencing wind and rain? Philips' story shows that prosperity and adversity are like the two sides of a coin, and there is no difference between good and bad. Both may make people successful, and both may make people fail. The key depends on what kind of mentality businessmen adopt and how to grasp it. In this regard, Wenzhou people have done a good job.
