How do ordinary people get a foothold in society, and what should we do?

I think the content of this book can be completely summarized by the title of the book to summarize "upward growth". The language used in the book is also particularly grounded, such as "attention is similar to muscles, that is, the more practiced, the stronger it is, and it is wasted after long-term use", and "simple desires only need to be indulged to achieve, while advanced desires need self-discipline and restraint".

There is a set of data in the book, the proportion of ordinary people in the world is 80%, the proportion of better people is 10%, and the smallest gap between people is IQ. The first step to success is to admit that you are an ordinary person, and many people will have a feeling that they are more qualified than others, but they just don't work hard and are not willing to do it. In fact, no, as long as you work a little harder, you can exceed 70% of the people. Your only competitor is the child in your heart who is good and bad. Therefore, we must learn to know ourselves and admit that we are mediocre, so that we can call on the down-to-earth strength in our bodies. Most things have nothing to do with IQ and family. Regarding doing things, it tells us to learn to "slow start", that is, to understand the internal logic of the development of things, to learn to do something "recklessly", not to wait for the return all day, and to quickly slack off without seeing the return. People's continuous upward breakthrough is the process of overcoming the inherent defects in genes. In dealing with confusion and no methodology, the author mentions the "stupid way" to believe in two things: first, repetition is power; second, quantity stacks quality. At the same time, for 30+, the author proposes to have the courage to break through the boundaries of resources, that is, to always serve the old, forget the age, do new things, always expand, never have boundaries, everyone often overestimates what they can learn in a day, underestimate what they can learn in three years. To learn to lower expectations, too high expectations to achieve good, if not achieved will lead to a rapid loss of confidence, become negative, do not want to do anything. For the vast majority of people, they are always too high on their own or their children, can not complete the high goal to be discouraged, neglect to set the goal lower, take it slowly, step by step, can also achieve high achievements, and this is the route that most people should take.

Poor people use hard-earned money to enjoy, they can never get rid of the dilemma of poverty, the rich use assets to bring benefits to enjoy, assets unchanged, the income is greater than the enjoyment of the part continues to invest, assets can continue to increase, so as to continuously open the gap.

As poor people, the first thing to change your destiny is to learn to delay enjoyment, and to save as much money as possible to buy assets that can preserve value or bring additional income, rather than spending it immediately. In addition, the book suggests finding a thing that can bring long-term benefits, continuous investment, such as the author writing articles, for a long time may not be interested, there is no way to realize, but the continuous accumulation will bring continuous impact, the final income will exceed the income of selling their own articles at one time.

To break through their own cognition, the first point is to recognize themselves, the vast majority of people in this world are mediocre, in addition to recognizing their own ordinary, but also have a tenacious heart, endure loneliness, do not accumulate steps, the author believes that China's development prospects are very good, there are opportunities everywhere, you need just work harder than the average person, really make high-quality things, luck will always stand on your side, no worries about no good development, overnight wealth is after all unrealistic, relying on luck to get rich, wealth obtained by luck, In the end, it will be defeated by strength.

The more stable the social development, the more difficult it is to achieve the class jump, in the country has begun to appear, in Europe and the United States, zombie culture is more and more popular, the more difficult to rise the more do not want to work hard, but a positive attitude to life is ultimately useful, bit by bit progress will eventually form a huge potential energy.

In the ordinary people's home, if you want to live a good life, technology is hard currency, cleverness and laziness will eventually taste the bitter fruit, the biggest advantage of engaging in the technology industry is that the transformation is very convenient, and you have a way back.

Finally, when it comes to economic activities, it feels a little complicated at first, and then I looked at it on the Internet, in fact, it is very good to see the bank as an individual. Social development is good, the bank can find high yield project investment, it is willing to use a relatively high interest rate, attract everyone to save money, it can invest, from which to earn the difference, the income of the project is higher than the bank interest rate, the actual project is also willing to find bank loans. When the economy is sluggish, the bank has no place to invest with money, and it has to pay interest, of course, it does not do it, so it will reduce interest rates, and even negative interest rates, so that everyone should stop saving money and consume, so that you can promote the development of the economy. The economic activity of society is in such a continuous cycle. As an individual, the only way to resist the economic cycle is its own hard power, and it needs itself to strike iron

Whether it is the truth obtained from reading or the practice. He did tell me a most sincere truth: everyone should be born upwards, constantly chasing, constantly exploring, and recognizing themselves in order to achieve continuous progress and achieve true happiness.
