Why do some people obviously work hard and can bear hardships, but they can only be ordinary people in their lifetime?
It's not because they don't know how to make money, the main reason is because they don't know how to get out of the trough.
The trough is a bottomless pit, do not know the correct method, no matter how hard, hardship, may not be able to get out, and every counterattack in life, often after coming out of the trough, so people who do not know how to get out of the trough, it is naturally difficult to counterattack from ordinary people.
But in fact, if you want to get out of the trough, it is really not difficult, Rockefeller once mentioned that people who can get out of the trough often understand a word, if you can understand it, you can also get out of the trough faster!
Ah Fat first briefly introduces the background of Rockefeller.
He was born into a low point, his father was a drug dealer, his mother was a housewife, and the poor family could not do it.
But Rockefeller practiced that word, started from scratch under such difficult circumstances, and became the richest man in history, worth as much as $336 billion, and Bill Gates was worth only $107.2 billion, which was far from Rockefeller.
It is said that it is not rich for three generations, but The Rockefeller family has been rich for six generations, and there is no sign of decay so far, which is also due to the wisdom of Rockefeller.
He wrote his wisdom into letters and kept them in the family, and every heir read these letters as soon as he understood things, and his descendants really excelled from generation to generation because of these letters.
All kinds of signs tell us how good Rockefeller's wisdom is, and those who come out of the trough, the word that understands will certainly help you get out of the trough!
This word is "forbearance."
Don't look at this word simple, this word contains meaning, you really don't know before reading this article.
The core of this word is to control emotions, which is also the key point to get out of the trough.
1. Lows are created by emotions
To put it subversively, the trough is not real, but is created by our own emotions.
For example, when you are laid off, for most people, the income plummets, the future is confused, this can be understood as a trough.
But in fact, this is just your income plummeting, the future is confused, so that your emotions are close to collapse, so you feel that this is a low.
If you can hold back your pessimism, you will find that the trough is gone.
For example, after being laid off, you can just sort out why you will be laid off, maybe you can find out your own faults, and the next time you correct it will become better, so that the mood will be much easier, then you will not necessarily feel that this is a low.
2. Patience allows you to stay calm at all times
In the early days of Rockefeller's business, due to lack of money, he found some partners, including a major shareholder, called Gardner, and as a result, this person came and changed the Rockefeller in the company's name to Gardner.
Rockefeller's heart was cold, and he suddenly felt that he had fallen into a low valley, and he wanted to take a breath.
In the end, Rockefeller still put up with it, and in the case of impulsiveness, he may completely quit the company, talking about coming out of the trough?
Patience, let Rockefeller always be in a calm state, because only in this way can we find a way to solve the current trough, after 3 years of calm and hard work, Rockefeller finally invited Gardner out of the company.
If we want to get out of the trough early, it is indispensable to be calm, and patience can give us calm.
3. Patience allows you to borrow power everywhere
The strength of one person is limited, the strength of a group of people is endless, if you want to get out of the trough, you must know how to borrow the strength of others, and only by knowing how to "endure" can you better borrow the strength of others.
In the work, there are some things you have to cooperate with colleagues, in order to pull up a project in the trough, if you two because of some aspects of disagreement, can not bear to let go, but quarrel or even fight, in the end will only let the project never go out of the trough, but if you understand the other party's shortcomings, you can continue to cooperate, then naturally can borrow his power to make this project out of the trough.
In life, forbearance can make your relationship with friends and family more harmonious, and when you are at a low point and need help, they will be more willing to extend their hands.
4. Patience, not blindness
If we understand forbearance as blind concessions and enduring pain, it would be a big mistake, and if we want to get out of the trough as soon as possible, we need to have directional tolerance.
Just like Rockefeller, in the face of changing the company's name, he endured, but he knew very well that the purpose of his patience was to change the company name back again, so in the process of forbearance, he also did a lot of things to change back to the company name, such as winning people's hearts, making more contributions to the company, etc., which is called directional forbearance.
If your forbearance has no direction, it is just silly forbearance, which will not make you get out of the trough faster.
For example, working with colleagues on a project, you put up with his stinky temper, but do not think about the follow-up to guide him to pay more strength, and in the end your project may still fail!
Man must have direction and be blinded.
The above 4 points are the inspiration I got from Rockefeller's letters, Rockefeller wrote a total of 38 letters, each of which contains great value, because he himself has experienced countless lows and started from scratch, so his wisdom is particularly helpful to us ordinary people, and I suggest that everyone can read it.
The 38 letters have now been compiled into a book called Rockefeller's 38 Letters to His Son.
The book records the wisdom and success of Rockefeller's legendary life, covering life, insight, growth, self-cultivation, handling, and wealth, suitable for all ages.
The book was once hailed as a "family letter that influenced the world"
Wang Jianlin bought it for his child Wang Sicong
Li Ka-shing often sat on his pillow and was regarded as a tutor of the Bible, drawing on Rockefeller's ideas to educate future generations.
Such a popular book, we Chinese read very little.
Today, the book is not expensive, only 36 yuan, 38 letters, 9 cents per letter, a takeaway money, you can read the precious wisdom that Rockefeller passed on to 6 generations.

Learning the wisdom of the cattle man is always a sure thing to make, and the different backgrounds doom us not to be able to become Rockefeller, but we can absorb his wisdom and become a more cattle self.
