What are the elements of success? A friend said that there is no shortcut to success. On the way to struggle, we can only change ourselves and make ourselves better and better. So do you know what is the key to success? Let me answer this question for you. Let's have a look!
What are the elements of success? 1 success factor 1: kindness.
Kindness is the truest essence of a person, which contains filial piety, conscience, gratitude and pity, and is the innermost expression of a person. It will make people do good, regardless of gains and losses, thus moving others and helping themselves.
Success factor 2: humility.
Humility is a relatively direct personality response to society, family and career, including honesty, tolerance, connotation and contentment, and it is a person's attitude towards others. It will make people listen to other people's suggestions on important choices, and will not make wrong decisions on certain things for fear of regret.
Success factor 3: self-improvement.
Self-improvement is a temperament that a person's spirit and body have experienced countless setbacks and joys, countless glories and sorrows in the world. It contains a person's self-confidence, courage, justice and independence, and it is a manifestation that a person is not afraid of difficulties. It will make people not afraid of difficulties, and they will not shrink back and be discouraged when they encounter difficulties. Work hard with people around them until they achieve their goals!
Success Factor 4: Perseverance
Whether a person can go on when he is confused and people around him don't think highly of himself is an important belief support. It includes perseverance, determination, loyalty, perseverance and so on. This is the strongest proof that a person can make up his mind and reach his original goal! As long as the direction is right, the method is right and suitable for the present and the future, it is our closest partner!
Success factor five: pursuit.
Pursuit is the spiritual pillar and belief that each of us yearns for, longs for and is crazy about, and strives for it for life. It includes innovation, flexibility, hope, love and life. It can be said that without it, the world will be subverted. It will make us better and braver to open a new chapter, instead of being content with the status quo. I believe that no matter how old you are, whether you are poor or rich, whether you are healthy or not, it will always be in our hearts and fight for it all your life!
What are the elements of success? 2. pay attention.
In The Road to Wealth Freedom, Li Xiaolai thinks that "attention" is a person's most precious wealth. He thinks attention is more important than time, and time is more important than money.
Why is attention so important?
Because you choose where to focus. Where is the direction and goal of your efforts? For example, you run a clothing store, but your attention is not on the operation of the clothing store. Today you pay attention to the stock market, tomorrow you pay attention to futures and gold prices, and the day after tomorrow you hear from your friends that you sell black tea to make money, and then you study black tea. As a result, the clothing store was a mess.
There is a vegetable shop in front of my community. I was very dedicated at first. Later, friends and neighbors often asked her to play mahjong. In the long run, she fell in love with playing mahjong, and no one cared about the vegetable shop. As a result, it closed in less than a year.
No matter how good a person is, no matter how good an enterprise is, it is impossible to succeed if your attention is not on your occupation or industry.
Attention refers to the ability of people's psychological activities to point to and focus on something. It is one of the five basic elements of intelligence, and it is the preparation state of memory, observation, imagination and thinking. Therefore, attention is called the door of the soul. Russian educator ushinski said: "Attention is the only gateway to our hearts, and everything in our consciousness must go through it before it can come in."
Therefore, attention plays a leading role in various cognitive activities. Because of attention, people can concentrate on clearly perceiving certain things and thinking deeply about certain problems without being disturbed by other things; Without attention, people's various intellectual factors, such as observation, memory, imagination and thinking, will get out of control without certain support.
So, in my opinion, attention is the first element of success. Only by focusing on your goals can you succeed.
However, although attention is the first element of success, it is not enough. Let me introduce the second element.
Second, thinking ability.
Thinking is the exploration activity of thinking, and it is the thinking activity of analyzing, synthesizing, reasoning and judging one or more objects.
The so-called thinking ability is the ability to think, and it is a positive and creative force that we produce in the process of thinking.
Thinking is very important for success.
Einstein once said: The difference between human beings and animals is that human beings have the ability to think and judge independently!
If the difference between people and animals lies in whether they think or not, then the difference between people lies in the strength of thinking. No matter in the workplace or in business activities, whoever has strong thinking ability is more likely to approach success!
In physics, force has three basic elements: magnitude, direction and point of action.
Thinking ability is also inseparable from these three basic elements: size, direction and action point.
Let's talk about the size of thinking power first.
Scholars believe that thinking ability depends on the amount of knowledge and information (size) of the thinking object possessed by the thinker. Without relevant knowledge and information, it is impossible to produce relevant thinking activities. Generally speaking, the greater the amount of knowledge and information, the more concrete, comprehensive and complete the thinking, which determines the dimension of thinking. Therefore, in order to improve thinking ability, the amount of knowledge and information is very important.
Second, the direction of thinking.
As mentioned above, the thinking we are talking about here refers to a purposeful and planned thinking activity, that is to say, this kind of thinking needs a certain purpose, direction and consistency, which determines the angle and dimension of thinking.
If your thinking lacks this kind of purpose, direction and consistency, and it is aimless, it will be difficult to exert strong thinking power and even lead you to a dead end. This is why we emphasize the importance of attention.
Third, the role of thinking.
Thinking is not a fantasy, thinking must have a role.
The function of thinking and the purpose and direction of thinking complement each other. If we want to do something, pursue an achievement and accomplish an important thing, we should focus our thinking on a specific object and grasp the key points, so that your thinking will be in full swing.
The role of thinking is also the focus of thinking. It is not enough to think only with purpose and direction, but also to find the right focus on the basis of purpose and direction. If you can't find the right focus, you will be easily distracted and confused, or stay on the surface of things without going in, for example, you can't deeply understand the essence of things and solve the problems you want to solve.
Thinking is not innate, it can be trained. Doing one or two thinking propositions and writing exercises every day can improve your thinking ability.
Third, the method
Method refers to the means and actions taken to obtain something or achieve a certain purpose, and it is the order, trajectory, way, route or path that people should follow when doing things skillfully or effectively.
Hegel believes that "method is also a tool", which is a tool to solve a certain problem and achieve a certain goal.
Gorky, a great writer, said: Learning is not imitating something, but mastering skills and methods.
What we usually say: strategy, strategy and thinking all belong to the methods we say here.
For example, strategies in Chinese dictionaries refer to solutions and schemes formulated by thinking about immediate and long-term problems. The interpretation of strategy in Chinese Dictionary is: strategy; Strategy, also known as methods and strategies, such as the strategy in the 36-plan, refers to people using a very clever method to achieve their goals by actively exerting their subjective initiative.
I remember an old saying in China that "a gentleman should be good at making decisions". You need ways and means to do everything, especially when you encounter difficulties, you must find ways to solve them. Retreat when you encounter resistance, and you will definitely not succeed.
I once met a friend on the wine table. He said: There must be at least nine plans to do one thing. I am in awe of his words. Under normal circumstances, you can come up with three plans for one thing, and you are an expert. It must be great that he can come up with nine plans.
Scheme is not only a method, but also a great luck to do things without scheme, and the probability of success is extremely small. Almost no successful person is completely successful by luck!
Of course, there are many comprehensive factors contributing to success, but if you don't have the three factors mentioned above, success is very difficult.
Because of the different educational background, life experience, personality habits and environment, some people may have these three elements as soon as they get on the road. For those who don't have these three elements, they should improve their attention, thinking ability and method ability by improving their cognition and strengthening their study and training, in order to succeed.
