Chapter 59 True glory can only depend on oneself

On the occasion of the 300th anniversary of Yale University in the United States, Ellison, the CEO of the world's second largest software company Oracle and the world's fourth richest man, was invited to attend the ceremony. In front of the president, teachers, alumni and graduates of Yale University, Allison made some shocking remarks.He said: All the teachers and students of prestigious schools such as Harvard University and Yale University think they are successful, but in fact you are all losers, because you are proud to study in a university with outstanding students such as Bill Gates, but Bill Gates is not. Not proud to have studied at Harvard.

These words stunned the audience.So far, prestigious schools like Harvard and Yale have always awed and fascinated everyone. Ellison is too crazy to call those proud teachers and students failures. Not to mention, Allison went on to say: Not only are many of the best talents not proud of Harvard and Yale, but they often resolutely abandon that honor.Bill Gates, the richest man in the world, dropped out of Harvard halfway; Paul Allen, the second richest man in the world, never went to college; , only read a year of college; Microsoft President Steve.Ballmer probably ranks tenth on the wealth list. He and Bill Gates are classmates. Why are they less successful?Because he reluctantly dropped out after a year of graduate school

Allison went on to comfort those Yale graduates whose self-esteem had been hurt a little. He said: But everyone here should not be too sad. You still have hope. Your hope is that after so many years of hard study, you finally won the honor of Opportunities for those of us (dropouts, out-of-college, expelled) to work. Allison's words are of course extreme, but they are not entirely unreasonable.Almost all of us, including ourselves, experience a strong sense of identity on a regular basis. We are proud to be born in a good family and to study in a well-known university.It is proud to have the opportunity to work in a large international company.It cannot be said that this sense of honor is improper, but if you are too obsessed with the honor brought to you just because of your status, then the realm of life cannot be too high, and the pattern of career cannot be too large. When we are intoxicated by When we call ourselves successful, we have been regarded as losers by the real winners.

★Life is delicious★ A truly successful person can make a family, an alma mater, a company, a city and even a country proud of him.However, what he often relied on was not the glory and superior conditions the latter gave him, but on himself!
