During this period, I met a lot of people, including investors, entrepreneurs, very successful entrepreneurs, ordinary entrepreneurs, and professional managers.
I have concluded that there are really two aspects to determine whether a person can succeed quickly: cognition and specific methodology of doing things.
1. Cognition (worldview, values), for example, choice is more important than effort, choose a good track, and get twice the result with half the effort. Why are the same efforts, effects, and results different? You can keep rising even if you are lying or sitting on the elevator, and even pigs can fly on the wind. For example, we see that the future is the era of nine lucks, digital economy, AI, web3, etc. are the key points. If you catch this track, you will have the opportunity to take off. In the original red ocean traditional track, it may become more and more difficult to make money, or you may only be able to survive, but the thinking of changing lanes is very important. For example, web3 may not be common yet, but we clearly see that it will subvert today's business and scenarios. Doing the right thing is valuable, and when it takes off, it is time to make big money.
2. Some people told me about going public, etc., but after talking to me, I found that there was no specific methodology, details, or framework thinking in their thinking logic. If you don’t try to get better cognition, improve better methodology, and form your own framework for doing things, you won’t be able to think about how to improve the overall layout roadmap step by step, let alone have better cognition and methodology. Because only after you have a framework for doing things, your ability to do things and your perspective on problems will be different from ordinary people. After being different from ordinary people, the probability of success and the effect of doing things will be much better.
I often tell my friends, how can you quickly check if you have grown? The simplest way is to look at yourself a year ago. If you don’t feel like a fool at that time, and your thinking logic for looking at problems and opportunities is still the same, in simple terms, you have not grown in this year. I have always summarized and forced myself to grow. I am grateful for the noble people around me. Come on!
