Father and son came to a fish pond to fish. After a while, the father caught several big fish, but the son caught nothing. The son really couldn't understand it, so he came to his father and asked him for the secret of fishing. Dad said, "If you're sure what to fish, you're ready to make a series of choices. The right choice determines whether you can catch a fish, or more accurately, a big fish." My father threw the hook accurately and powerfully to the surface of the water, then sat down and looked at the fish pond and said: "First, choose a water area. If you want to fish for carp or crucian carp, it must be in freshwater areas, such as in reservoirs, fish ponds, Or by a small river with less rapid currents; if you want to fish for whales, you may need to take a fishing boat into the deep sea and enjoy the thrill of rough seas. "The fish are not evenly distributed in all waters, in the same area, some people can catch big fish, while others always catch small fish, so the choice of pond becomes very important. Fishing in this pond, I It was chosen repeatedly, and you are completely blind, although we happen to meet, but we have a difference. The difference is that I know my choice, and you are random. Maybe you can have a good chance, But chances are not always yours. True success requires accumulation and sensible choices.” While talking, my father caught another big fish. The richest man in Japan, Yama Etaro, has a famous saying: "Don't make friends with the poor." His words have puzzled many people. In fact, what he really means is not to dislike the poor and love the rich, but to emphasize that a person should always keep improving when he grows up. With a mentality, there must be a few heavyweight friends to lead me not to settle for the status quo. If you live in a group of people who are not as good as yourself, how can you make progress? It's like if we want to fish, we must first find a pond with fish.
