Chapter 6 Chapter 5 Self-planning, moving forward in the lost way

People who struggle without maintaining the correct goal are like children who are demoralized from playing. They don't know what they want, and they always pout in a daze.Action itself determines life.Determining a clear goal in life is crucial to life, or to any action. In life, many people lack clear goals.They are like ants on a globe, looking hard.I am always climbing, but I can never find the end, the destination.In the same way, having no purpose in life, no focus of activities, will make your efforts useless, without any achievement and satisfaction.Activity without purpose is tantamount to sleepwalking, and life without purpose is nothing but an illusion.Many people mistake some unplanned activities for the direction of life. Even if they spend a lot of effort, because they don't have a clear goal, they still can't get anywhere in the end.

To climb to a higher point in life, of course you must take practical actions, but the most important thing is to find your own direction and destination.If there is no clear goal, the higher place is just a castle in the air, and it is out of sight and out of reach.If we want to make breakthroughs in our lives and reach new and valuable destinations, we must first determine what those destinations are.Only when the destination is set, the journey of life will have direction, progress, end and satisfaction. Setting clear goals is the starting point for all achievements.A lot of people fail because they don't set clear goals and never take their first steps.There is no doubt that society has a powerful assimilating effect, which has caused many of us to deviate from the true meaning of life and lose our true feelings and nature.But only what we really want can satisfy us.By giving up our own wants and needs, we become insensitive, indifferent to anything.

Everyone has dreams.Real dreams, dreams in sleep, dreams written in composition books as a child, daydreams while chatting with friends.However, after the age of dreaming has passed, why do you feel melancholy or lost in the face of reality?Of course, the most ideal is to "make dreams come true". Although not everyone can do this, it is not impossible. Once a person has a dream and a goal, he will naturally exert more effort to realize it, and the brilliance of life can be seen from this.why?In the process of striving for the realization of ideals, the joy of life is clearly revealed, and life will be more energetic, and at this time, the potential brain power of human beings will also be brought into play.The principle of often and consciously creating situations that make life more successful, richer, and more enjoyable is called purpose catalysis.

A 1952 issue of Life magazine featured John Gold's story.When Gord was 15 years old, he overheard his elderly grandmother say with great emotion: "It would be great if I could try more things when I was young." The old grandmother also has irreparable regrets.So, he sat down immediately, listed in detail what he wanted to do in his life, and called it "John Gold's dream list". In all, he wrote down 127 detailed and specific goals.It includes 10 rivers to explore and 17 mountains to conquer.He even wants to travel to every country in the world, and he also wants to learn to fly a plane and learn to ride a horse.He wants to finish reading the "Bible" and the classic works of Plato, Aristotle, Dickens, Shakespeare and more than a dozen great intellectuals.He even dreamed of riding a submarine, playing the piano, and finishing reading the Encyclopedia Britannica.Of course, there is another important item, he will get married and have children.

Gord looked at this "dream list" several times a day, and he memorized the entire list by heart and by heart.Gord's goals, even after more than half a century, are still magnificent and unattainable.But how did he accomplish it?At the time of his death, Gold had circumnavigated the world four times, achieving 103 of 127 goals.With the goals he conceived and accomplished in his life, he narrated the splendor and achievements of his life, and illuminated the world.Whenever we read Gord's story, we can't help but think of a sentence: "Life is great because of dreams."

A college student often publishes works in newspapers. He has a high talent for journalism and has the potential to engage in a journalism career.This college student did not choose to engage in journalism when he graduated. He felt that journalism was just reporting some trivial things, and he was unwilling to do it.But 5 years later, he said regretfully: "Honestly speaking, my current salary is not low. The company has a future and my job is secure, but I am not paying attention at all. I regret that I did not join the journalism right after graduation." Work." From this student, you can see that he is dissatisfied with his current job, and has developed disgust for his job in three to five years.He has no future at all.Unless he resigns immediately and joins journalism.

If the student had set precise goals in journalism, perhaps he would have achieved some success in this area.The fundamental reason for his failure is that he did not set his career goals early.There is a goal to be successful.Goals are the real motivation for your desired achievements and careers. William Mastern, a very prominent psychologist, once asked 3000 people the same question: "Why do you live?" The results showed that 94% of the people said they had no clear purpose in life. 94%!As the saying goes: "Everyone dies, but not everyone really lives." Mastern's research sadly confirms this.Many lived what Thoreau called "quiet lives of despair."They endure, wait, wandering in the true meaning of life, expecting their life goals to come instantly under the inspiration of a certain god.At the same time, they are just living, repeating the mechanical actions of life, and they have never felt the flash of life.They watch the light of their lives fly by and grow more and more terrified that they will reach the end of their lives before they have experienced any real joy and meaning in life.

From discovering goals to having goals, this is a process, and the whole process cannot be completed overnight.It requires introspection and patience—two qualities that are difficult for most of us to achieve.But once you determine your goal, it's like injecting a new vitality into your soul, and a sense of stability and direction suddenly arises. Identifying your own goals will do the same for you!The following exercises are the steps I have developed myself when looking for goals, so try them out and see how they work.Take out a blank piece of paper and write "what impression do I want to make".Make a list of the qualities, behaviors, and traits that you would like your friends, spouse, children, partners, groups, or even the world to remember you to remember.If you have a special relationship with some other groups, such as churches, clubs, sports teams, etc., list them as well.In the process of listing, you will gradually discover your own true value and the source of life meaning.

If you want to make a long-term plan, it is best to take five years as a stage, which is easy to manage and realize.You can make a plan like this: Jem will have a college degree in five years and be ready for promotion; he will be promoted to junior executive in ten years, and so on. A wife said: "I hope my husband will never be satisfied and never stop his progress. In the five years of our life, we will work hard for one goal every year-first his degree, and second Refresher classes, then a freelance job, and now it’s his career. If one day he tells me he’s content, then our honeymoon is over.”

"No matter what you do, as long as you keep your ultimate goal firmly in mind, you will gain infinite motivation to move forward." After achieving a goal, immediately set a new goal for yourself, this is the key to success.The meaning of life lies in the constant pursuit of new goals.


George Bernard Shaw said: "The people who conquer the world will be those who first tried to find the paradise of their dreams, and when they couldn't find it, they created it with their own hands, just like you will be very happy before traveling abroad. It's like putting it on a map in nature."

Personal career planning is a map that leads us through the fog to success. Only by relying on its guidance can we reach the other side of success smoothly.A person whose career goals are consistent with his life goals is happy, and career design is essentially the process of pursuing the best career. Career career refers to the development path of a person's continuous work occupation and job position throughout his life.Successful career planning requires you to position yourself in a position where you can best use your strengths based on your own interests and characteristics, so that you can maximize your self-worth.Personal career planning should determine the career direction and goals suitable for oneself on the basis of self-understanding, and formulate corresponding plans to avoid blindness in employment, reduce the possibility of failure in employment, and provide the most efficient path for individuals to achieve career success. The well-known management expert Northwell defines the connotation of career planning as follows: individuals combine their own situation and immediate constraints to determine the direction of action, action time and action plan for their own career goals.There are three main benefits of career planning: First, it reduces many anxieties and mood swings (highs and lows). Second, it can make life and work more efficient and easier to achieve. Third, it can allow itself to concentrate superior resources, avoid all interference, and make it easier for itself to succeed. So, how can we do a good job in our career planning? A successful life requires proper planning. In fact, it doesn't matter where you stand today, but it does matter where you move to next.An effective career design must be based on a full and correct understanding of one's own conditions and the relevant circumstances.The more thorough the understanding of oneself and the environment, the better the career design can be done.Because the purpose of career design is not only to help you achieve and realize your personal goals, but more importantly, to help you truly understand yourself. You need to look at yourself, know yourself, understand yourself, and make a self-assessment.Self-assessment includes one's own interests, strengths, personality, knowledge, skills, IQ, EQ, way of thinking, way of thinking, moral standards, and self in society.Estimate the advantages and limitations of the internal and external environment in detail, design your own reasonable and feasible career development direction, and find out your professional expertise and interests through the analysis of your past experience and experience. This is the first step in career design. step. To understand ourselves, we can use the 5 self-questions to achieve this. This method relies on the zero-return thinking mode, that is, start by asking who you are, and then go all the way.There are 5 questions in total: who am I? what do i want to do what will i do What does the environment support or allow me to do? What is my career and life plan? By answering these 5 questions and finding what they have in common, you can gain a clear understanding of yourself.If you are interested, you can try it now.First take out 5 sheets of white paper, a pencil, and an eraser.Write the above 5 questions on the top of each sheet of paper.Then, calm down, eliminate distractions, and think carefully about each question in order and independently. The main point of answering the first question "Who am I" is: face yourself and write down every answer that comes to mind; after writing, think about whether there are any omissions, and if there are indeed none, sort them in order of importance. For the second question "what do I want to do", you can go back to your childhood, starting from the first idea of ​​what you want to do in your life, and then as you grow older, recall what you really want to do, and one by one Write it down carefully, and then think about whether there are any omissions after writing. If there are indeed none, carefully sort them. For the third question, "What can I do?", list out the proven abilities and the potentials that you think can be developed one by one, and sort them carefully if you think there is nothing missing. The answer to the fourth question "what does the environment support or allow me to do" requires a little analysis: the environment includes the unit, the city, the province, the country and other countries. , should be within the scope of consideration; in these environments, think carefully about what support and permission you may get, and write them down one by one after you figure it out, and then arrange them in order of importance. If you can successfully answer the fifth question "What is my career plan", you will have the final answer. The method is: line up the first four sheets and the fifth sheet, then carefully compare the answers on the first to fourth sheets, connect the answers with the same or similar content with a horizontal line, and you will get a few The top line that does not intersect with other lines is the most important thing you should do, and your career should be based on this.In this direction, take 3 years as a unit to propose short-term, medium-term and long-term goals; then propose this year's goals in the short-term goals; decompose this year's goals into quarterly goals, monthly goals, weekly goals, and daily goals. Target. In this way, before you go to bed every day, you can reflect on your goals, summarize the achievements and mistakes, experience and lessons of the day, and revise tomorrow's goals and methods. After waking up the next day, you can go into action after a little review!In this way, there is no plan that cannot be realized over time.It is worth noting that many people often think that choosing the most popular career means the most promising for themselves. Regarding this, relevant experts remind: the most important thing in choosing a career is to be able to analyze yourself correctly, find the most suitable major for you, and then Strive to be the best in this industry. If you don't know where you're going, you usually won't get anywhere.Establishing goals is the key to formulating career planning. Effective career design requires practical goals in order to eliminate unnecessary hesitation and interference and devote oneself to the realization of goals. Setting your own career goals is not as difficult as you imagine, just think about what goals you want to achieve in a few years, and then count back step by step.Goal setting should be based on information such as your best talents, your best personality, your greatest interests, and your most favorable environment.Usually goals are divided into short-term goals, medium-term goals, long-term goals and life goals, but one thing is that you have to ensure that this goal is at least great in your own eyes.Without practical goals as the driving force, it is easy for people to compromise on the status quo. Is your career helping you achieve your ultimate goals in life?Do you have a path to align your current career with your fundamental purpose in life?Just as a campaign or a football game needs to determine a combat plan, an effective career design also requires a career strategy plan that can be implemented. These specific and feasible action plans will help you move towards success step by step. Goals. Generally, the choice of career direction needs to consider the following three questions: Where do I want to develop? Where can I develop? Where can I develop? Therefore, today, our working methods are constantly innovating. In addition to learning new skills and knowledge, we also have to examine our capital in life, realize its shortcomings, and constantly revise our goals in order to be invincible , in order to lead your team forward with one response.


Many people don't have a clear goal in their lives. They live a monotonous life, dreaming and dreaming, and they are monks hitting the clock all day.On the contrary, those who have a clear purpose in life are vigilantly waiting for the opportunity, and when the opportunity presents itself, they seize it tightly and gain a lot. Frost, a famous American poet, was deeply moved when he came into contact with Shelley's poems for the first time: "Ah! This is exactly what I want."So for me, it doesn't matter what I was or what I am now, what I want to achieve in the future is the most important thing.I have to have big dreams for the future, otherwise I won't be able to accomplish anything, and maybe nothing at all. Ms. Eun Yott is a life coach who founded the "Job Change Clinic" at the New Winston Hotel in New York.She gives advice to those who are dissatisfied with their work for their reference.I once discussed unemployment with her. She told me that the reason why these people are not satisfied with their jobs is because they don't know what they really need. The first thing she has to do is to help these people find their hearts. wishes and goals.This is also something a wife should assist her husband in finding a purpose in life before he can move definitively towards it. Simon and Essegrim, authors of The Guide to Marriage, have pointed out that a happy marriage is built on a shared desire for life, whatever that desire may be—a new house, a big family, or a trip to Europe once…… The book says: "The key is to set a goal first, and then work hard to achieve it. The happiness, satisfaction and fun of life come from the design, hope and dream of life, and from the victories and failures, satisfaction and disappointment in life. The common share.” The William Grahams of Waikita, Kansas, are living proof of this.William Graham is the head of the William Graham Oil Company in Waikita, which is doing well economically. When he was a child, William Graham already knew how to make profits from oil plant management and investment. Now he and his wife Mary have wealth in life that many people envy: health, wealth, 6 smart children, successful career, luxurious Residence, which they can enjoy to the fullest for years to come. I have known William Graham for many years, and I asked him the secret of success, and he replied: "First have a long-term plan, and then work hard to achieve it." Soon after William Graham and Mary married, they began to sell houses and real estate, earning some commissions from it.They rented an office in a disused corner of an office building, where Mary was in charge of communications and William was out looking for business.At first, there was little business, and the newlyweds were often hungry. Later, there was finally a turning point.They started buying their own houses and reselling them, and then built their own houses to sell, and their career prospects were bright.At this moment, William thought that he should seek better development because he had plenty of energy. William Graham and his wife had several family meetings, and they chose the oil business, and the William Graham Oil Company was officially formed.This company has a strong desire for trading opportunities and challenges, so it is often mentioned as a successful example. But William and his wife are not satisfied. They are still seeking new development and considering international investment.Once they make a decision, they will go to great lengths to make it happen. When the Williams made plans for their choice of goals, they always considered William's training, qualities, and temperament.Mary told me that in order not to lose the spirit of enterprise, William always made a more challenging plan immediately after implementing a plan.Therefore, their lives have always been full of challenges, but also full of the resulting sense of accomplishment. The success of William and his wife is a proof that life should make a plan, act according to the plan, and finally achieve your goals.If a ship loses its direction and the power to move forward, then any direction of the wind is against it.Who can hit the bull's-eye without aiming?People who aim at the bullseye may be a little bit off, but it's better than blindly shooting with your eyes closed. The famous Columbia University professor Dean Herbert Hedges once said: "Confusion is the main cause of depression." Chaos is not only the main cause of depression, but also the biggest obstacle to success.So, if you want to excel, all you do is motivate yourself to find the center of your life, to set a purpose in life, to achieve success in life. What does success mean specifically to us?Does success mean wealth, fame or power, a sense of security, or a satisfying job and service to society?Success has different meanings for everyone, we should carefully consider these issues, find the true meaning of success to ourselves, and then determine our life goals! Nick Alexander grew up in an orphanage.The food there is poor, and the children are always hungry there, even when they are hungry, they have to work non-stop from morning to evening. Nick's biggest dream is to be able to go to college.Little Nick is very smart and can be said to be a child prodigy. After graduating from middle school at the age of 14, he came to the society to make a living.He started as a seamstress in a tailor shop, where he worked for 14 years.Later, tailors joined the union, their wages increased and their hours were shortened.Fortunately for Nick, his wife is willing to help him realize his dream, but everything is not so easy.Shortly after their wedding, tailors began to downsize, and the young couple had to go out on their own. They worked out ways to raise money, including the sale of his wife Lisa's engagement ring, and eventually, they opened an Alexandria real estate firm in Arden, Pennsylvania.After the establishment of the company, the business is booming.At this point, Lisa decided to send Nick to college.At the age of 36, Nick received his degree, which was the first milestone in his life and at the same time realized his childhood dream. After Nick earned his degree, he helped his wife continue in the real estate business.They have a new wish - to build a new house on the seashore.Before long, they achieved this goal. Did they seek pleasure and stop to rest?No!Because they have to prepare adequately for their daughter's education.So they converted their house into an apartment rental, a goal they'd single-mindedly pursued, and finally had their kids' college bills secured. Currently, the Alexander couple is struggling for their own retirement insurance.Nick presided over the business alone, and Lisa took care of life at home.The life of the Alexander couple is busy, but also happy. Bernard Shaw once said: "I hate the so-called success, because this kind of success means that there is nothing to do anymore, just like a male spider, which has completed fertilization and only waits to be killed by a female spider. My goal is always The front, not the back, so keep improving and look forward." People who are eager to achieve success through their own struggle should not avoid the subject of goal positioning.People really need a height, a height beyond themselves, a height of pursuing truth.People should set a high-level goal for their own life, a high-level goal that will never give up until the goal is reached.Let's find a dream for ourselves and set a goal, because - with a goal, there will be hope!


I think there are many people in this world who believe that America is a land of opportunity, don't they?All kinds of propaganda would have us believe that if you have the requisite ability and energy, you can achieve what you seek.You really believe in that, don't you?my dear reader. Yes, you believe in all this, and those around you will agree with you in this belief.But how much do you believe in that?If you are unemployed at home at this time, have no food, no money, and no hope of a new job, would you still believe this statement?Will you take action to prove this claim?Mr. Rainer believed and proved this statement. Mr. Rainer lives in Independence, Missouri.This gentleman inherited an estate worth $100,000 in 1928, but he was declared bankrupt in 1938.The whole thing happened like this. Mr. Rainer had a wealthy and generous father.When he was in high school, his father had allowed him to use his bank account to write checks when he was short of money.And when Mr. Rainer entered the university, such a life was even more wonderful-he still didn't understand the meaning of money, and he didn't know how to get money. All he needed to do was to use his father's account to sign Cheque. This lifestyle continued until the death of Mr Rainer's father.His father left him a large and very valuable piece of land on the lower reaches of the Missouri River, with plenty of water for irrigation.At the beginning, Mr. Rainer put himself in the position of a farmer, thinking that he could obtain a comfortable life by running this farm. However, it didn't take long for the Great Depression to sweep across the United States.Mr. Rainer's first year's finances ran into serious deficits.He mortgaged a piece of land to pay off debts and fill bank deposits, but as the depression continued, he had to sell the mortgaged land at a low price.Because he is not good at management, he has been circulating in this vicious circle. In the end, when the land belonged to others completely, he found that he had nothing left.In fact, if he's going to survive, he'll need to find a job - something he's never done!He was in so much pain that he couldn't sleep all night.He asked himself what he really did for a living, but he found that his only skill was writing checks.He is at a loss for the future... Finally, one night, he woke up from the bewildered nightmare and realized that he was no longer the child who could hide under his father's wings. He had grown up now and had to learn to face the facts. In addition to facing his own predicament, Mr. Rainer also began to find out what his beliefs are.Indeed, in the past, he also believed that the United States was a country full of opportunities, as long as he worked hard, it was possible to achieve his goals, but at that time it was just a belief that others said what they said.And now, he forced himself to replace the fear of the unknown tomorrow with confidence.He forced himself to try hard to believe that this country was full of opportunity and that there was a place for everyone if there was determination.Only in this way, he will not give up easily. Then, Mr. Rainer began to examine his strengths: he was in good health, had a college degree and some business knowledge, and also had the experience and experience from failures and mistakes. So instead of wasting time feeling sorry for himself, he took action. He successfully found a job with a financial firm in Kansas City, where he enjoyed four years of employment.After that, he resigned from his job and returned to the farmland again.He tried to slowly build up his credit and gradually expand the scope of his career.Finally, under his painstaking accumulation, he bought and sold, made a lot of profits, and his career gradually got on the right track.Those lost industries have also been earned back bit by bit. Mr. Rainer summed up the lessons of his boyhood and passed on these experiences to his two sons.He knows that this is more meaningful than giving them material wealth alone. From this, we can know that we must have faith.Still, it won't help if we don't act on our beliefs. Mr. Rainer's story is a prime example of the maturity he has grown from a spoiled boy who knew nothing of responsibility to one who realized overnight that he not only needed to have faith but also to take action. Actions to testify to the man of that faith.Before that, Mr. Rainer avoided reality like a child, but his faith in the United States enabled him to face the reality bravely again like an adult. Of course, faith alone is not enough.The role of faith is to increase people's courage in the face of reality, so that we will not retreat when facing trials.If we don't act decisively based on our beliefs, we will still get nowhere. There is only the beauty that comes out in life, and there is no brilliance that waits for it.So, once we have gained firm belief, we should act like Mr. Maha. Paul Mahal, a very successful construction contractor in Hawaii.His belief is that "one cannot give up easily".He has always pursued this principle, so he has achieved success in his career. In 1931, the young Mr Mahal was looking around in construction and industry, hoping to get a job.But the society was depressed at that time, and even experienced veterans in the industry would be dismissed. Who else would hire a fledgling novice like him? At first, Mr. Mahal also felt discouraged and frustrated.However, he soon cheered up and decided to do something by himself.With $500 borrowed from relatives and friends, he started a small construction company.At the beginning, the business was sluggish—who would entrust the business to such a little-known small company when the general environment was extremely sluggish?However, Mr. Maha finally found several small businesses by virtue of his persistence in his beliefs. His first business was to build a $2,500 house.Due to inexperience and inaccurate valuation, Mr. Mahal lost $200.However, with the experience of this failure, the next few businesses have never failed again.Because he firmly believes that people cannot give up easily, he finally successfully passed the biggest difficulty in his life. Yes, people don't fall because they don't have confidence, but because they can't transform their beliefs into actions and stick to it desperately.So, if you want to mature yourself, remember the fourth principle: Own what you believe in and put it into action. Ruth Flor, a student in my training course in New York, got married and raised children, but when the children were grown, she felt an inexplicable void and lived an unhappy life for 8 years. One weekend morning, she heard a neighbor crying and went to find out.She noticed that the neighbor was unconscious and walking around, apparently suffering from some kind of illness.Mrs. Flor helped her to the bed and called for the doctor.For the next four days, she traveled between the two houses, taking care of her family and neighbors.When the neighbor got better, she said to Mrs. Flor, "You look like a nurse." From then on, Mrs. Flor wanted to be a nurse.First, she went to a nearby hospital and applied to volunteer there, where she really enjoyed working.At the end of the year, she entered the hospital's nursing school.She had a hard time that year.I get up at 7 am to go to work in the hospital, and I have to do a lot of housework after returning home at 4 pm, and I have to study for three or four hours at night.Several times, she felt overwhelmed. But in the end she persisted and graduated successfully.She said her graduation day was the happiest day of her life, with family and friends in attendance. Later, through unremitting efforts, Mrs. Flor obtained a nursing license and an associate degree in nursing.Gone were her family problems, and that feeling of inexplicable emptiness.She is busy with her new venture and enjoying it.


Life is like a ship. If it loses its rudder in the sea and spins at sea, it will soon run out of fuel and still not reach the shore.In fact, it used up enough fuel to make several trips to and from the coast and the sea. It is a generally accepted psychological principle that a person's actions always cooperate with the most important thoughts in his will. Any definite main purpose deliberately planted in the mind and maintained unchanged, when the determination is made to achieve it, this purpose will penetrate the whole subconscious mind and automatically affect the external actions of our body, making us step forward. accept it step by step. There is a method in psychology that you can use to imprint your definite main goal in the subconscious mind. This method is the so-called "auto-suggestion", that is, you repeatedly suggest to yourself.This is tantamount to a program of self-hypnosis, but don't be intimidated by it because of it.It was in this way that Lincoln crossed the wide chasm that led him out of a log cabin in the Kentucky mountains to become President of the United States. As long as you can be sure that what you are striving for will bring you permanent happiness, you need not be afraid of this method of "self-suggestion."But be sure to make it clear that your definite goal is constructive, its attainment will not bring pain and sorrow to anyone, it will bring you peace and success, and then, according to the degree of your understanding, you can Use this method to achieve this goal quickly. The subconscious mind may perhaps be likened to a magnet which, when functioned, when fully in relation to any definite object, attracts the conditions necessary for the attainment of that object. In order to prove this point, please do an experiment first. Organize two groups of people to go to the same village along two 10-kilometer roads. The difference between the two groups is: the first group does not know the name of the village, nor does it know the distance of the distance.Just tell them to follow the guide.The people in the second group not only know the name of the village and the distance, but also have a milestone for every kilometer on the road. Please guess how they completed the task! You probably would not have guessed that some people in the first group complained after walking two or three kilometers, and some people were almost angry when they walked halfway. They complained about why they had to walk so far and when they could get there.Some people even sat on the side of the road and refused to leave more than half of the way. The further they walked, the lower their mood. As for the people in the second group, they looked at the milestones while walking, and everyone had a small burst of happiness every time they shortened a kilometer.During the trip, they used singing and laughter to eliminate fatigue, and their emotions were always high, so they arrived at their destination very quickly. This experiment will inspire you to some extent!Only specific, clear and time-bound goals have the value of guiding action and motivating oneself.Only when you fully understand the specific tasks you have to complete within a specific time limit can you focus your energy, use your brains, mobilize your own and other people's potential, and strive to achieve your goals.If there is no time limit for specific goals, anyone will inevitably be distracted and loose, and it is just empty talk to complete the goals set by themselves. At 25, Ray was starving because he was unemployed.He wandered around on the road during the day with only one purpose, to avoid debt collection by the landlord.One day he met Mr. Chalibin, a famous singer, on 42nd Street.Rain had interviewed him before he lost his job.However, what he didn't expect was that Xia Libin recognized him at a glance. "Busy?" he asked Rain.Rain answered him vaguely, thinking he saw what had happened to him. "The hotel I'm staying at is on 103rd Street, can you walk over there with me?" "Walk over there? But, Mr. Haribin, 60 intersections is not close." "Nonsense, it's only 5 blocks away. Yes, I'm talking about a shooting arcade on 6th Street." There were some irrelevant answers here, but Rain followed him obediently. "Now," said Mr. Chalibin, when we reached the shooting range, "we're only eleven blocks away." In a little while they were at the Carnage Theatre. "Now, it's only five blocks to the zoo." After another 12 blocks, they stopped at Mr. Chalibin's hotel.Strangely enough, Rein didn't feel very tired. Xia Lipin explained to him why he walked: "You can always remember the walk today. This is a lesson in life. No matter how far you are from your goal, don't worry. Put your Focus on five blocks away. Don't let the distant future bore you." Don't lose sight of your goals, and only focus on the small goals in front of you every time, so that the unattainable goals are close at hand.From millions of successful people, we can find a common fact that they almost all start from their own interests and specialties, decisively implement their own strategic decisions, clarify their main goals, and then "narrow the encirclement", and then move forward. The goal was approaching step by step, and finally succeeded in one fell swoop. Writing clear goals in writing gives you a clearer picture of what you want. It reminds you of the power of clear goals while exposing their weaknesses.If you can't write out the clear goals you have in mind, it may mean that you don't believe in them enough.Once you have written your plan, read it aloud to yourself at least once a day. This will not only strengthen your persistence, but also strengthen your inner strength. When you are faced with choosing a method of implementation, speaking aloud the clearly written goal will give you a clearer understanding of the goal itself and keep you moving toward it. Of course, we can also use written plans to ensure that every team member can work towards the same goal.Individual abilities are limited, but if we can gather the talents of all on the basis of a common and clear goal, and approach the goal with a harmonious attitude, we can achieve a great cause.

Henry's life is that he received too little education.He had never been to an institution of higher learning, or even seen a university.However, the novels he wrote have been regarded as classics by countless universities. Another worry of O. Henry was his frail health.As a young man, a doctor thought he was going to die of consumption.So he left his homeland for Tethys, the meadow, where he tended the sheep.And after O. Henry's name spread far and wide, even that piece of grass became famous. Many tourists came from afar by car just to carefully stand on that piece of grass. If that's all, his experience is not miserable.Destiny has never been stingy with tempering great men. After O. Henry recovered, he worked as a teller at the Bank of Austin, Texas.At that time, the folk customs were simple and honest.When the clerks in the bank are too busy, herdsmen can walk into the bank to withdraw money by themselves, withdraw as much as they need, and then print a receipt. However, when supervisors came to check the inventory, they found that the number of coins did not match.Because O. Henry was responsible for keeping it at that time, he was arrested and imprisoned.Although he did not get a penny, the court still sentenced him to 5 years. "Prison" is a shameful thing, but for O.

Obviously, not every inmate who writes in prison becomes a celebrity.However, there are indeed many famous people who have been engaged in writing in prison, Sir Raleigh is one of them. Sir Walter Raleigh was once a famous playboy with diamonds on his feet and pearls in his ears. On one occasion he threw his expensive cloak in a mud puddle for Queen Elizabeth to trample over so as not to stain her shoes.It is such a flatterer who is engaged in writing in prison. He was imprisoned for 14 years for political reasons.The prison he lived in was small and dirty, with dirty water running from the walls.The dark and humid environment made him suffer from severe rheumatism, and his hands and feet became a little stiff.But he endured all these pains and completed a great world history.This book is still a textbook in many universities and colleges.
