Ten Pieces of Advice for Young People on the Feeling of Success

1. Effort

Work requires effort; whether you drift through life over four or five years, put in a little effort over four or five years, or work hard over four or five years, the time will pass either way. So why not work hard and do a good job? If we spend the first four or five years after graduation working hard, it will be very beneficial for our future lives.

2. Humble Learning

Interact and learn from elders/successful people. Humbly listen to and carefully analyze their opinions and suggestions so as not to take detours in the future.

3. Freedom

When stepping out into the world to accomplish things, the key is freedom, happiness, and gaining knowledge. Analyze every step you take, and don't let small profits restrict your freedom. Remember, before the age of 30, don't worry too much about your savings or position. These are insignificant in the long run.

4. Goals

Participate in a 21-day training camp to improve the qualities and methods needed to achieve your goals. Life must have goals, not just career (money-making) goals, but also goals in other areas such as love, health, and family. All these goals should be given importance. Making money alone does not constitute a successful life and will eventually lead to the "short barrel effect."

5. Planning

Set yourself a five-year plan, a ten-year strategy. Plan what to do each quarter, each month, even each day. Don't live in a daze. Saying that plans can't keep up with changes, after a few years, you'll find that without a goal, nothing has been accomplished.

6. Cherish Time

If you've done all the above, I estimate your time will pass quickly. Don't regret wasting time on trivial matters! I often hear people say: "This life is like yesterday and today." Mao Zedong said: "The heavens rotate, time presses. Ten thousand years is too long; seize the day, seize the hour." "Thirty-eight years have passed, like the snap of fingers."

7. Understand Society

Learn more about society and practice more. Analyze the cause-and-effect relationships of certain social phenomena. Carefully analyze some events happening around you. Face the dark side of society, analyze some negative trends, don't be arrogant, and don't follow the crowd blindly. Sometimes when doing things, this kind of help is necessary.

8. Do Not Fear Poverty

Perhaps your family doesn't have hundreds of thousands of dollars. Boldly go ahead and do things, don't be afraid of poverty. Even if we fail, at worst we return to the starting point — still poor.

9. Hardship Tolerance

Don't be afraid of hardship. In the entrepreneurial stage, what we need is fame and experience. Sometimes, under the condition of breaking even, we can use low-price strategies to compete with others. We sell a bit of mental labor and physical labor. Young people, after a good night's sleep, everything is restored.

10. Cooperation

Do not casually cooperate with others; consider the pros and cons when cooperating with others. If you have an idea, act quickly and work hard, putting your life into it. Once you've built up enough capital, short-term cooperation with others can be considered. When cooperating with others, the goal must be clear.
