I would rather be an entrepreneurial wolf than a working dog
This is a very extreme statement, and many of my working friends are not happy to hear it, but if we think about it, this guy's words really do make sense.
Wolves in search of freedom, preferring an independent personality, free thinking, every day running in the prairie, wantonly hunting cattle and sheep, as far as possible to enjoy all the delicious nature provides, after eating enough to lie on the grass, do not want to think about anything, to enjoy the sunshine and free air, they are the master of the prairie, and they have all the dignity. But when the cold comes, they must learn to resist the cold of the blizzard, learn to look for prey under the thick snowdrifts, endure the pain of hunger from time to time, and worry about freezing and starving to death at any time. The life of a wolf can be described as half sea water, half fire.
The dog's life is the opposite, usually the dog can only eat the master's leftovers, the master yells everywhere busy, no freedom, no dignity, only wagging their tails and begging for mercy, the dog's life is guaranteed, although never eat anything delicious, but the winter comes without worrying about starvation and freezing, the master's fart protection, the dogs are grateful to be sworn to a lifetime of loyalty to their masters, even if the owner Even if the master scolds the dogs recklessly, most of them do not dare to say a word, because obedience and obedience are the marks of the dogs. The most important thing to remember is that the dogs are not the only ones who have been in the same situation for a long time, but they are the ones who have been in the same situation for a long time!
If you compare people in real life, it is estimated that most of us are living the life of a dog, stable and comfortable, but never enough to eat, want to leave the master's home kennel, but lack of courage to break the boat!
I feel that the reality of the young people's career choice is mostly to do working dogs, rather than to do entrepreneurial wolves. Many friends may say, just out of school students, where there is capital and experience to start a business ah? The best option is to work in a company for a few years, reserve some experience and capital, and then start your own business a few years later if you have the opportunity.
In fact, this idea proves to be very wrong, a college student working for a few years, not only can't earn the money needed to start a business, but also can't learn the experience of starting a business and skills. The things learned from working life is basically useless for entrepreneurship, because the two have different perspectives, different ways of thinking, and get different experience, can only say so, working a few years after you only get to improve the technical skills of working, and entrepreneurship is the least need for technical skills.
What's even more frightening is that after a few years of working, young people will generally lose the passion for entrepreneurship, the loss of the courage of the newborn calf, more and more immersed in the unit, it is difficult to extricate themselves, and then the idea of entrepreneurship can only stay in the bottom of the heart forever, become a permanent regret. Wait until the age of 40 more than the boss dismissed, only to regret 20 years ago why not out of their own business ah!
Then do entrepreneurial wolf high requirements in the end?
My answer is: as long as you have the idea of being an entrepreneurial wolf, even if you only have 100 dollars in your pocket, you can still start a successful business!
People earlier generation of Wenzhou people out of business pocket a few money? Not by changing eggs for iron pots to earn the first money. You only have 100 dollars in your pocket, at least you can set up a street stall, sell some socks and gloves in winter, sell some pineapple in summer, and so on, after the money is enough to get a barbecue and so on, anyway, the money is even less, you can also embark on the road of entrepreneurship, the key to see if you want to do business wolves?
The life of a part-time worker and the life of an entrepreneur must be different.
Over time, there will be a growing difference between the character of a working person and the character of an entrepreneur.
Let's ask ourselves, friends who work for a long time feel more worried from time to time, afraid of the unfamiliar world outside, afraid of the danger of losing their jobs, and their minds become more and more sensitive and fragile. The mind is not only gradually tired and lazy, the whole person also has no sharpness and spirit, so I have to comfort myself with contentment, indifference to fame and fortune. But life has become more and more mediocre, the economic burden of the family is getting heavier and heavier, the house and children's education is becoming more and more their necks on the economic rope, strangling more and more tight, can not breathe, I have to adjust their own mentality, so that they gradually adapt to the positioning of the city of the small reptiles, they were mediocre, mediocre, why bother yourself, get rich is the business of others, we do not have that life.
The most fearful of the first thing than to hear the company's efficiency is not good, to lay off the news, the most important thing and the leadership of good relations, adhere to the study of compliments and greetings to pat the ass, into the countryside, follow the Romans well. Thought numb, had to go with the flow, after all, the rice bowl in the heart of the leader or boss inside, want you to get out, you have to get out.
The second most fearful thing is to see their age is growing, but their work skills have not been improved, although by seniority old salary is more and more, but look at those new young college students, live and work as long as so little salary, the boss's knocking in the ear, look at the young people to eat less to do more, you these old revolution! The older you get, the worse you become. No wonder, the result of working life is the older the more depreciation, especially to the 40-50 age group, is simply the most miserable stage of the career, always on the verge of the abyss, like a trip to the minefield, layoffs and unemployment at every turn.
Some people say that the past 10 years is the peak of the blue-collar workers laid off, the next 10-20 years will be the peak of the white-collar workers laid off, you have a one who used to read a university is elite? Society continues to progress, your knowledge structure, physical fitness, career concepts have long been inferior to others just graduated college students. The bosses are realistic and will certainly take the lead in laying off those white-collar workers in the 40-50 age group in the event of a crisis.
So you now have a stable job, you feel safe, in fact, and in your side pressed a timer *, wait for more than 10 years, it will explode, you then unemployed pain and the cost of fear than the present cruel 100 times.
In fact, on the surface of the reality of entrepreneurship risk is much higher than the part-time job, but in the long run, the part-time job brings a higher risk.
The risk of entrepreneurship is to lose the expected income in recent years, and even after the bankruptcy has to lose a part of the money borrowed by themselves, but after all, young, able to repeatedly defeat, learn from the failure of the sustenance and experience, the level of business and the ability to do business once more than once high, and gradually integrated into the group of people in the business, the eyesight and experience accumulate, there is always a quantitative to qualitative breakthrough, as long as the real cross the door of business, the future career basically a piece of cake. As long as you really step into the business door, your future career is basically a straight path. The more money you make, the more wealth you accumulate, and the more your value is maximized.
On the contrary, the working life lasted down, in recent years really safe and sound, but you actually in the continuous depreciation and shrinkage, rather than more and more robust. The longer the part-time job, you will be more and more weak-minded, more and more timid, 10 years or so later, a little careless, you may be fired off the squid, unemployed and laid off, you look at that risk is big?
Young hot heart, step on the journey of life, in fact, not as simple as you think,
What we have, nothing, for a young, a surging passionate heart, passion is not a moment,
The weak and the strong ten society, not a skill is not long.
Ideas determine the way out, action determines the result.
The vast majority of people used to do the language of the giants, the action of the dwarf.
The more people with high IQs, the easier it is to fall into this paradox, and it is difficult to extricate themselves.
It seems that God is fair, giving people wisdom at the same time, often deprive him of bravery.
That's why there are always a few people in the world who enjoy a wonderful life.
Let us describe the mindset of those who continue to work.
They say with their mouths that they have been waiting patiently for a real opportunity. Wise people think y and thrice. They have been waiting for the conditions to be ripe, even if the flowers blossom and fall, but wait until now, the time has not waited, the conditions are not ripe, the quality of the real life has not been improved.
I remember a very pessimistic folk song in Greece: "Apollo, the god of the sun, is a warrior, he was able to punch down the ferocious enemy, but he could not reverse his fate. Prometheus was a wise god, he was able to hide the fire from Zeus and stole it to teach those poor people to see the light, while he himself was pecked at the heart and liver by the vulture, it was fate playing a joke on him!" This is an example of people thinking that their power cannot overcome their destiny and change reality.
The working friends who work for others to make ends meet do not want to change the reality of life, but also have a sense of urgency, and would like to change their own "poor" face, but there is always a sense of fear, because there has never been the experience of independently grasping their own destinies and experience, just like a person who has never used a computer, afraid of pressing the wrong switch and button to burn out the computer, and the computer can not be used to make the computer work. It's like a person who has never used a computer before and is afraid that pressing the wrong switch or button will burn out the computer, or that the keyboard will be broken if he presses hard enough, or that he will encounter a virus if he goes online. Things aren't really that scary, and the most important thing for people who are afraid of computers is just to plug them in and turn them on in order.
Of course, we working people in the workplace is always responsible for the work itself, the enterprise is responsible for the boss, so we have to wait for the conditions to be ripe, and in fact to promote these conditions to have tend to consume a lot of energy, procrastinate a lot of time, and sometimes have not waited until the conditions are ripe, the surrounding environment has changed, and the old conditions have not yet been achieved, the new problem has arisen, the result is still at a loss, the result is still nothing to do. As a result, they are still at a loss as to what to do, which eventually leads to nothing being done. Therefore, for the wage earners, the most important thing is to understand that we must first act and then think!
