In the past May, an event worthy of being remembered by history happened:

Crazy Musk sent two astronauts into space.

before him, human beings have done this many times. However, when we turn the page of history, we will only see that the United States sent astronauts into space, Russia (Soviet Union) sent astronauts into space, and China sent astronauts into space ...

In people's cognition, manned space flight is something that only a powerful country can do.

Musk is the first private entrepreneur to accomplish this feat in human history.

But this is not the first time that Musk shocked the world, nor will it be the last time.

before that, he had redefined the payment method with Paypal; Redefining electric vehicles and even redefining cars with Tesla; A private rocket company controlled by itself launched a Falcon heavy rocket into space.

And after that, he wants to build a super high-speed rail with a speed of 1,111 kilometers per hour. I want to use 42,111 low-altitude satellites to form a "star chain" to make wifi signals cover the whole world; In particular, he also wants to build a human city with millions of residents on Mars ... < P > Perhaps, many people will be skeptical about these grand plans. However, I am used to Musk's miracles, but I tend to believe that maybe he can really succeed.

Because Musk has a force field that can distort reality, and always makes things that look like a fantasy possible.

musk, not alone. He actually represents a kind of people. The names of such people also include Master Xuanzang, Jobs, Ma Yun and so on.

they have the same characteristics: because they believe, they see!

"Because I believe, I see", which is famous because Ma Yun preached it everywhere. Ma Yun's success also made the best footnote to this sentence.

When he was an English teacher, he devoted himself to the Internet industry and became a pioneer in e-commerce. How many people thought he could succeed?

Most people think that Ma Yun is a big bluff, while others think that he is engaged in pyramid schemes. We can see that in the video recording Ma Yun's early entrepreneurial journey, his face is full of helplessness being rejected and questioned.

However, Ma Yun unswervingly walked down this road, attracting a group of people to follow him, and countless resources gathered around him. Gradually, more and more customers and consumers began to believe in him, until today, he developed into a huge Ali empire.

If we don't know Ma Yun's entrepreneurial course, it will be difficult to understand this sentence, let alone to practice it.

most people's thinking is: how can people believe something they have never seen before?

this mode of thinking determines the way most people do things: first look at what they have, and then set goals according to the existing conditions.

Doing so can make people feel certain, because everything is within the control of their existing resources and abilities. So for most people, only in this way can they feel at ease.

but because of this, the ceiling is really too low.

The reason is that an individual's existing resources and abilities are limited. If you set a goal based on this, the goal will not be much higher.

The habit of people like Ma Yun and Musk is to look at what they want first, and then create conditions to achieve this goal.

What they want may be so big that ordinary people can't imagine it. So when they say that goal, they will always be questioned and even laughed at. Because people can't see any possibility of success from the existing resources and conditions.

When the helpless monk set out from Chang 'an on a white horse, no one could believe that he could walk to Tianzhu and get back the scriptures.

When those ragged revolutionaries were hiding from repeated encirclement and suppression in Jinggang Peak, no one believed that they could seize the national political power and overthrow the three mountains.

When the eccentric and grumpy rebel returned to Apple, where he had been kicked out, no one believed that he could create a brand-new era for mankind through a small mobile phone.

but in the end, they all succeeded.

Although they had nothing when they set out, on the way, they kept finding like-minded people, constantly improving their own and the team's ability, and constantly integrating various resources ...

They created an imaginary and seemingly unreachable future out of thin air.

It's a big change from "what can I do" to "what I want".

if you have never realized this before, you may have taken many detours in your life.

if you realize it today, but you still can't change it, you may have to take many detours in the future.

when all you think about every day is "what can I do", you may miss out on things that are really important to your life.

When shopping, you will only choose what you think is "cost-effective", not what you really want. You may have eaten apples for twenty or thirty years, but you never know what a really delicious apple should taste. You may have worn underwear for twenty or thirty years, but you never know how comfortable it is to wear a really high-quality underwear.

It certainly depends on your wealth, but it also depends on your consumption concept-for example, many people would rather buy five apples with five dollars than one apple with a good taste with 11 dollars, because he cares about "what I can afford" rather than "what I want".

When looking for a job, you will only choose those limited by your major and certificate, and never ask yourself what you really want to do. Finally, you have worked in a job you don't like all your life, and you have never enjoyed it.

To start a business, you will only do what you can within your ability and resources. If you are lucky, your family is richer and your resources are better, you may make some money, but you will never feel the real pleasure of starting a business, and you will never be able to make your business bigger.

and if what you think is "what do I want", how will things change?

In love, you will boldly pursue the person you really like, and strive to improve your talent, image, temperament, ability and strength to match him/her.

When you buy something, you will abandon the thinking of "what is the best deal", save a lot of money wasted because of being greedy and cheap, and use it to try something that can bring you a good experience, and use it as an incentive to make more efforts to earn money so that you can enjoy life better.

When looking for a job, you will first determine a career you like, and study hard for the knowledge needed by this career, make friends in this circle, and finally have the ability and resources to enter this career, and take your favorite job into your pocket.

to start a business, you will think about the mission and vision of the company, then recruit relevant people, learn relevant knowledge, develop relevant contacts, and start a business with enthusiasm. Because of your strong belief and passion, employees, customers and investors are more susceptible to infection, and the elements of success will automatically gather for you, making it easier for you to make your career bigger.

so you see, the world has been divided into two kinds of people from the beginning. Some people think about "what can I do" every day, while others think about "what I want to do" every day.

and the cruelty of life is that if you don't fight for what you want to do, someone will hire you to fight for what he wants to do.

Maybe you will say, "Who doesn't want to do what they want? But the probability of failure is very high. Girls who like it may not catch up, they may not be able to afford what they want, they may not be able to find a job they like, and they may not be able to create a dream career. "

this problem does exist. No one can guarantee that you will get what you want. Besides, some things are beyond human power.

For example: time to go back, superluminal flight, China winning the world championship in football, etc., which has gone beyond the current human cognitive boundary of the laws of cosmic physics, and is not the kind of things that can be our life goals mentioned in this article.

what we are talking about is the other side that can be reached theoretically by improving our ability, seeking all kinds of help and integrating all kinds of resources.

Chasing a girl you like, buying things you want, finding a job you like, and creating a dream career are all within your power. Throughout the ages, countless people have done it.

if others can do it, why can't you? Why did you think you would fail in the first place?

if you don't try and try hard, are you a little irresponsible for your life?

Originally, you could have unlimited possibilities in your life, but it was because you were afraid of failure and unwilling to work hard that all the possibilities became impossible.

then what do you have to complain about the unfair fate and envy others for their success?

from the beginning, you have chosen the ending.

of course, I'm not saying that a goal can be achieved in theory, but it will be achieved in reality.

If you are an ambitious person, you set a boastful goal and don't put anything into it every day. Then you read He Jiayan's article, clap your thighs and say, "That's great! I am a person who cares about what I want regardless of the actual conditions! My dream will come true one day! "

I can only say that you think so beautifully!

To fulfill the philosophy of life "What do I want to do", you need to make corresponding efforts and bear corresponding sufferings.

you need to devote your whole life to it, thinking about it all the time and doing it all the time.

you need to constantly build in your mind what things will look like after success, and the clearer the better.

kazuo inamori believes that the clearer you picture your vision in your mind, the clearer the path to realize it, and the stronger your motivation. This is how he founded Kyocera and KDDI, two Fortune 511 companies, and brought JAL back to life.

you need to constantly build a connection path between the goal and the reality, and the more specific the better. There must be a path between two points, and all you have to do is find this path.

you need to constantly think about what conditions are lacking to achieve your goals, so as to constantly create conditions.

If you lack ability, you should exercise it. If you lack contacts, you should open up contacts; If you lack resources, you should look for them.

If you have everything but an opportunity, you should keep checking for leaks and make up for them, be fully prepared and wait for the opportunity to come.

more importantly, you need to act immediately, instead of keeping it in your mind. No matter how well you think, no action is equal to zero.

In the process of action, you still need to persevere towards the goal, never flinch when encountering difficulties, never escape, and stick to it with your teeth clenched. As Ma Yun said, the wild boar came, ordinary people turned around and ran away after lighting up their bullets, while entrepreneurs pulled out firewood knives and continued to pounce desperately.

If what you want to do is a great cause, then you need to find enough people to help you, and be good at gathering a large number of key resources for your use. To find these people, you must rely on your own unshakable beliefs, as well as your efforts and achievements, so that others can believe with you.

As Musk said, "The most important thing for you to convince others is not to lobby, but you need to really believe in this matter and reach a critical point so that everyone can see hope."

Only by doing these things can you really "do what I want to do", not just "want to do that one thing".

Those who really do this, even if they don't succeed in the end, enjoy the whole process. They are more likely to feel full and happy, and won't feel that they have wasted their time.

Musk's next goal is to send 1 million people to live on Mars before 2151.

you can think that this is an absurd fantasy. But he has his own road map and timetable in mind.

of course, there is contingency in the world. Maybe he will fail.

but what?

His life doesn't need that final result to be complete. In fact, on the way to that result, he lived a very full day. Even if he fails, someone will go on the road he started.

life is like this, what more can a husband ask for?

Throughout the ages, people who have achieved extraordinary things all have a great goal first, and then create conditions for achieving it.

Even ordinary people, those who live a happy and fulfilling life are people who have clear goals in life and can move towards their desired goals.

whether you want to achieve something great or live a happy life. If you can ask more "what do I want" instead of obsessing about "what can I do", life will be completely different.

In this world, most people are obsessed with conditions.

only a few people can focus on their goals.

Perhaps it is this difference that makes the distinction between mediocrity and Excellence, confusion and enrichment.

which way do you choose?
