I can climb the Space Needle

In Seattle, USA, there is a landmark building called the Space Needle. The tower is 605 feet tall, equivalent to a 56-story building. At an altitude of 520 feet above the ground, there is an observation deck and revolving restaurant that offers a 360-degree panoramic view of Seattle. People often say that going to Seattle without going to the Space Needle is like going to Paris without going to the Eiffel Tower.

But in that era, few people except wealthy politicians could enjoy this honor of being able to climb the Space Needle. Many people are proud to climb the Space Needle. A little boy has had this wish since he was a child. But due to his poor family background, this almost became an unrealistic luxury.

Finally, the opportunity came. One day, in the church school where the little boy was studying, a pastor named Dale Taylor promised in public: "Whoever can recite the entire content of Matthew Chapters 5 to 7 word for word will be invited to the Space Needle. The revolving restaurant in the tower, attend the free dinner party.”

In Pastor Taylor’s decades of teaching career, no one has ever been able to recite the three chapters of Matthew in full. Because the content of those chapters is tens of thousands of words long, and the coherence is not strong, and it is also very difficult to pronounce, even adults have a hard time reciting it in full. But the 11-year-old boy did it without any mistakes from beginning to end. No one could imagine that in order to climb the Space Needle, he spent almost all his time for a week except eating and sleeping.

Later, this story was written into his autobiography. Whenever someone asks, he always feels deeply: "Actually, it's not that I am smarter than other children, it's just that I can do my best, while others are not."

Successful Definition, sometimes it’s that simple. "I can climb the Space Needle!" With this belief, 16 years later, the little boy became the president of the world-famous Microsoft Corporation. Yes, he is Bill Gates. Warren Buffett once said of Bill Gates: "If he sold hamburgers instead of software, he would also become the burger king of the world."

As of fiscal year 2008, Microsoft's revenue was nearly 620 million billion, with more than 50,000 employees in 60 countries and regions around the world. Gates also ranked as the world's richest man from 2001 to 2007, ranked third in the world in 2008, and became the world's richest man again in 2009. Someone once asserted that as long as there is a computer on your desktop, it must be equipped with a control from Microsoft. Bill Gates has completely changed the lives of almost every modern person.

Many years later, several playmates from the church school received an invitation to visit the Microsoft headquarters in Seattle. On the wall behind Bill Gates' desk, there is a set of huge photos that are very intriguing.

The photo consists of three parts. The first photo is a shabby cabin where Gates lived when he was a child, the second photo is the majestic Space Needle, and the third photo is the Microsoft headquarters. transmitting tower. From the low hut to the tower towering nearly 900 feet into the sky, the three heights appear to be in an ascending straight line. It gives people an exciting feeling. This set of photos records the growth trajectory of Microsoft and truly reflects the reasons why Gates has achieved great success.

In many cases, success is not far away from us. It took Bill Gates less than 20 years from climbing the Space Needle to building his own Microsoft empire. While participating in the Boao Forum for Asia, many Tencent netizens raised thousands of almost harsh questions.

When netizens asked about his assets, Gates made a vivid metaphor: his company can now build 26 Space Needles. When talking about his success, Bill Gates only said this: Success comes from persistence and doing your best. In a certain era, not everyone can successfully climb the Seattle Space Needle.

It is better to stand up and take action than to sit and dream

Once upon a time, there were two young people who lived in a barren and backward mountain village, but they both I am not willing to stay here all my life, and hope that one day I can leave the small mountain village and live a decent city life. One of the young men dreamed of making a fortune all day long. For example, selling mountain products at gold prices, searching for treasures in inaccessible caves, waiting for a bag of money to fall from the sky and knocking him out... Although he had many ideas, he always felt that None of them succeeded smoothly, so he gave up his efforts and became idle.

Another young man is a carpenter. He does carpentry work down-to-earth, leaving early and coming back late every day, busy. Whenever he sees the hard-working carpenter, the young man can't help but laugh at him and say: "In this place where birds don't shit, no matter how hard you try, you won't get any good results. Instead of looking for trouble, Why don't we wait for some entrepreneur to invest here? Aren't many poor mountain villages developed into tourist attractions? Then we can just sit back and collect money."

The carpenter said: "What happens in the future. We’ll talk about it later. The most important thing now is to do everything you need to do. Although you may not be able to make a lot of money, you can at least support yourself.”

In a flash, more than ten years have passed. Years have passed, and except for daydreaming every day, the lives of young people who dream of doing something big have hardly changed at all. The carpenter is different. In these years, in addition to doing carpentry work, he also used his spare time to learn marketing management. After years of accumulation, this carpenter is no longer that carpenter.

Opportunity always favors those who are prepared. One day, a city man passed by a small mountain village and found a carpenter doing carpentry work. The city man said: "With your skills, if you open a furniture store in the city, the business will be very good." The carpenter said sheepishly: "It's a good idea, but I have no money!" The city man chuckled. He smiled and said, "What's the problem? I'll provide the money, you provide the skills, and we'll share the money equally."

In this way, the carpenter came to the city, and it was just as the city man expected. Likewise, the furniture he made was very popular among city dwellers. Within a few years, the carpenter bought a house in the city, settled down, married a beautiful city girl, and lived a comfortable and happy life. But the young man who dreams of doing something big is still dreaming about it in that poor mountain village, and his life has not changed at all.

〔Moral of the story〕It is better to stand up and take action than to sit and dream, because no matter how wise a wise man is, he cannot predict what situations he will encounter in the future. Innovation leads to success.

〔Old editor’s meditation〕Action is like a wonderful watershed that separates those with ambitions and dreamers. Diligent and brave people always face difficulties, while lazy and cowardly people always face difficulties. They always hesitate to move forward, so they have two completely different lives, a glorious one and a frustrated one. A short story that inspires positive energy 3

Madmen and Idiots

A psychology professor visited a lunatic asylum to learn about the living conditions of madmen. At the end of the day, I felt that these people were crazy and acted unexpectedly, which was an eye-opener.

Unexpectedly, when I was about to return, I found that my tire had been removed. "It must have been some lunatic who did it!" the professor thought angrily, taking the spare tire and preparing to install it.

The matter is serious. The person who took off the tire actually removed all the screws. You can't get up without screws or even a spare tire!

The professor was at a loss. When he was extremely anxious, a madman jumped over and sang an unknown happy song. He spotted the professor in distress, stopped and asked what was going on.

The professor was too lazy to pay attention to him, but he still told him out of politeness.

The madman laughed and said: "I have a way!" He removed a screw from each tire, so that he got three screws to install the spare tire.

The professor was surprised and grateful, and was very curious: "How did you come up with this method?"

The madman laughed and said: "I am a madman, but I am not an idiot. Ah!"

In fact, there are many people in the world who, because they have discovered the joy of work, will always show enthusiasm that is different from ordinary people, which is difficult for people to understand. While many people are laughing at them as lunatics, others may still be laughing at them as idiots.

Being dull and clever in doing things is a good attitude especially in China.
