10 Pieces of Advice for Wealth Accumulation

1. You don't have to work yourself to death, constantly take courses, or engage in intense competition. Life can still be lived. Although you may not become extremely wealthy, it's not difficult to survive.

But are you willing?

Most people aren't. Despite complaining about how hard work is and how tiring life can be, deep down, they secretly compete, hoping to provide a better life for themselves and their families.

So, don't be fooled by the apparent pessimism of young people these days. In reality, everyone knows what they truly want.

2.Don't make "breaking through class barriers" your goal. It will only intensify your anxiety and feelings of powerlessness.

Having a small Mercedes and adding some impressive people on WeChat won't be enough to break through class barriers. If it were that easy, there wouldn't be so many contradictions in society. It takes time and luck.

What's more worthwhile and easier to control are the seemingly trivial but immensely helpful little things.

For example, reading five more books than you did last year, losing a dozen pounds, developing six-pack abs, earning a few more thousand yuan, spending time with your parents, and taking them on a few trips.

These overlooked small successes are the true source of most people's happiness and the key to maintaining your self-confidence.

3.In society, the less confident you are, the more likely you are to be overlooked.

If you tremble and stutter when greeting your boss, ask yourself why. You haven't done anything wrong, and you don't owe them any money. So why be afraid?

If you lack self-confidence, why should your boss trust and value you? Show confidence and composure, and your boss might consider promoting you.

Just like now, when Tiemu Jun generously and sincerely asks you to give him a like, and when he receives your approval, it brightens his entire day.

4.The closer the friend, the more you should avoid conflicts of interest.

When going out to eat, if it's a split bill, quickly transfer the money to the person who paid. Regardless of how much money you borrowed, repay it promptly. When starting a company, try not to go into business with close friends.

The best and most enduring friendships are based on shared values, but the key to maintaining them is "lack of conflicting interests."

5.When facing a problem, friends who stand by your side and support you in actions are different from those who only express support with words.

Friends who remain silent during a conflict and only criticize the other person afterward are not worth deepening the relationship with. Friends who apologize on your behalf but stand up for you when you're being mistreated are the true friends.

6.When pursuing someone, it's not solely based on "touching their heart." Sending timely morning and goodnight messages, delivering meals rain or shine won't make the other person fall in love with you. In fact, it may even cause them to dislike you. The better approach is to improve yourself and let the other person feel your "charm" and "steadfastness."

If a woman falls for you, it should be because she loves you as a person, not because of your flattery. Understanding her needs, without pursuing her relentlessly, being realistic, and trying to please her every day might make her happy, but it won't make her develop feelings for you, let alone fall in love.

This kind of man won't truly provide a sense of "security" to the other person. Even if she says "I love you," it won't last long. In the end, it will all be in vain.

7.Cultivate the "patience" of reading; it will never let you down.

A single book may not bring about significant changes, but after reading ten, twenty, or thirty books over the years, you will find yourself surpassing those who don't read much. It will not only make you a person with active thinking and a broad perspective but also grant you an enviable "superb focus."

Reading not only provides you with knowledge but also develops a high level of focus, which becomes your most powerful weapon and valuable asset.

It not only saves you time searching for good books but also accelerates your acquisition of success through shared experiences.

8.Don't be too sensitive; learn to be "dull."

When someone doesn't reply promptly, your initial reaction shouldn't be, "Do they dislike me?" When someone makes a joke, you shouldn't assume that they're intentionally embarrassing you. Living with excessive sensitivity will only make you more exhausted as time goes on.

When someone ignores you, it could simply be because they are busy. When someone makes a joke, it could be an unintentional slip. Let your emotions be a bit duller, be lenient with yourself, and you'll experience much less anxiety and pressure.

9.The fairness in most competitions only means that you're eligible to participate.

True fairness comes from your core competitiveness. For example, attractiveness, abilities, family background, financial strength—out of all these aspects, there must be something outstanding that qualifies you to talk about fairness.

Otherwise, it's like a soldier entering the battlefield unarmed. Even if they are eligible to participate, while others have cannons, snipers, and tanks, that soldier, no matter how courageous and ambitious, will only end up as cannon fodder.

10.Sometimes it's not that you're incapable; it's just that you've chosen the wrong leader.

What kind of leader should you never follow?

A great summary:

If you talk to them about benefits, they talk to you about systems.

If you talk to them about systems, they discuss dedication.

If rules benefit themselves, they emphasize rules.

If rules don't benefit themselves, they emphasize personal favors.

If both don't benefit them, they become aggressive.

If you encounter such a leader, don't hesitate; leave as soon as possible! They're not worth wasting any more of your time.
