Chapter 9 1. Only by thinking of a way will there be a way

There is really no way! There is no way! In this case, are you familiar with it?Do you often hear such voices around you? When you make a certain request to others, do you feel disappointed when you get such an answer? When your superior gives you a certain task, or your colleagues or customers make a certain request to you, will you respond in the same way? When you respond in this way, can you also experience the disappointment of others in you? There is no way, we seem to have found a reason for ourselves not to do it.But it is precisely the sentence of "no way", which has extinguished many flowers of creation and hindered our progress!

Is there really no way?Or are we simply not using our brains to find a way? In the training, I often tell the trainees such a concept: the engine will generate power only when it is started, and similarly, there will be a way if you think of a way! I have told many students a small incident of my own experience: On the eve of the Spring Festival holiday, I was going to buy a gift for each employee's mother, so I walked into a branch of a famous pharmacy near the company. What should I buy?After searching here and there, I settled on a blood tonic. Unexpectedly, the waiter told me that there were only two boxes of the product left, which was far from the quantity I requested.Can you come to the headquarters to buy some goods?I discuss it with the waiter.The waiter told me: It would have to wait three days later, because the report was submitted on the first day, the warehouse could be delivered on the second day, and the goods could be delivered on the third day.

But my employees are going home to visit relatives in the afternoon.I asked: Could it be earlier? The waiters shook their heads. At this time, I was a little angry: your pharmacy is an old store with many years of history and is very reputable, and now customers are eager to ask for goods.Why can't you think of a way? Judging from their expressions, it worked.So I encouraged them again: Think of a way, it will definitely be solved. I explored with them what other possibilities there were.At this time, a waitress surnamed Meng said: We can try to call other nearby branches to see if they have stock.If there is any, we will borrow it from them first and pay it back in three days.

Everyone thought it was a good idea.The waiter surnamed Meng quickly went to the back room to make a phone call.Soon, she came out with a smile on her face and said: Sir, I have called some nearby branches just now, and they don’t have much stock, but they are enough together, please come to our upstairs first Wait a minute in the office, I'll take a car and pick it up for you right away. The problem was solved like this.Although it is a small matter, it also fully demonstrates that as long as you think of a way, there must be a way. I believe that the emergence of better methods largely comes from having a good attitude!Thinking of a way is the premise of thinking of a way.If you let your mind take a break, even a genius will be helpless when faced with a problem.So the method is produced in the process of thinking, it will not come out of thin air.

A few years ago, Beijing successfully bid for the Olympic Games, and the whole country was boiling.Everyone is not only happy that China's national strength has been recognized, but also proud that Beijing has received such an opportunity for economic development.But did you know that before 1984, the Olympic Games were not something that every country wanted to compete for? On the contrary, few countries dared to bid for the Olympic Games.Because for quite a long period of time, hosting the Olympic Games will lose money.For example, the Moscow Olympics held by the former Soviet Union lost a lot of money.

The Los Angeles Olympics in 1984 was a turning point. The U.S. government not only did not pay a cent for the Olympics, but instead made a profit of more than 200 million U.S. dollars, creating a miracle.And the person who created this miracle, named Uber Ross, is a businessman.At the beginning, he was unwilling to accept this task, and he finally agreed after repeated invitations. Uberroth made a comprehensive consideration of the relationship between the entire Olympic activities, business and society, and finally came up with many ideas to make the Olympics profitable.One of the most brilliant ideas is to auction the live TV rights of the Olympic Games, which has never been done before.

Initially, the highest auction price proposed by the staff was one.Five or two billion US dollars, which was an astronomical figure at the time, was immediately denied by Uber Ross, who said: This figure is too conservative! He is keenly aware that people's interest in sports events is increasing, and the Olympic Games has become a hot spot of global attention.TV stations have made a lot of money by broadcasting programs.If the auction of live broadcast rights is adopted, it will inevitably lead to competition among major TV stations, and the price will continue to rise. As expected, the television rights alone raised more than $200 million for him.

In the past, the ten-thousand-mile long-distance race relay in the Olympic Games was run by famous people, but Uber Ross changed this practice and said that anyone can run, as long as they are in good health, and they can pay an additional fee. A fee of 3,000 U.S. dollars per kilometer . This is really an unprecedented idea. Will anyone pay for the crime? Unexpectedly, as soon as the news was announced, people who signed up flocked to it.one.For a road of 50,000 kilometers, the toll was collected forty-five million U.S. dollars! The Olympics brought Ueberroth unprecedented fame.Looking back on his success, he is very proud: Where there is an idea, there is a breakthrough.If you are afraid of difficulties, how can you create such brilliant achievements?

French mathematician and philosopher Poincare once said: unexpected inspiration is only produced after some days and conscious efforts.Without them, the machine would not run and produce nothing. The German philosopher Hegel once ridiculed those who thought they could get inspiration without hard thinking: The poet Martel sat in the cellar facing 6,000 bottles of champagne, but he just couldn’t get inspiration for poetry.Even if the greatest genius lies day and night on the green grass, letting the breeze blow, and looking at the sky, the gentle inspiration will never patronize him. We usually like to say a word: When you frown, take care of yourself.In fact, this is often the situation of a specific person in a specific period.To have good ideas and ideas, more effort should be put in.

The improvement of human intelligence is a gradual process.As long as you can overcome the fear of difficulty and make up your mind to work hard, you will find more and more solutions to problems and become more and more intelligent! Use your brain to find a way, don't let your intelligence machine rust!
