“If you treat someone well, you expect them to treat you well in return. You might as well treat yourself well directly and cut out the middleman taking a markup.” I think this line is absolutely classic.

Ordinary people don’t have much capital,
Their only leverage is their life (time and health).
If you ruin your health before becoming wealthy,
it’s equivalent to your principal going to zero—you’ll have lost even the table you need to turn things around.

Absolutely incredible!
The restrictions on business tycoon Wang Jianlin have been lifted,
Wang Jianlin has repaid his 600 billion in debt, selling everything that could be sold,
but he did not betray the country, flee with the money,
or leave the debt to the state or cheat ordinary people​​​

No matter how difficult life gets, never break your word. No matter how poor you are, never borrow money and refuse to repay it. Money can be earned again once it is gone, but once trust is lost, you will find it difficult to move forward. You may be shrewd, but never be without principles; do not scheme in front of others or plot behind their backs. Only by conducting yourself uprightly can you stand firm. Character is heavier than a mountain, and a clear conscience is more precious than gold. No matter how poor you are, do not deceive your friends; no matter how wealthy you become, do not fo

Often, people do not fail to know what is right; they simply do not know why they are unable to do it. A recurring problematic behavior is often not the enemy, but an incorrect solution. Real change does not come from forcing yourself to stop, but from understanding the pain and needs behind it and replacing it with a better way.

Until you’ve made money, don’t do anything else—just focus on making money.
Remember, when you’re poor and have no money, don’t get involved in other things, or you’ll suffer even more as time goes on.
You must learn to delay gratification and enjoyment. Remember, enjoying life requires money as a foundation.
People who have no money to lay the foundation, yet don’t know how to cherish their time and use it to make money, are simply not thinking clearly and are destined to suffer even harsher consequences.
Remember, being able to endure a period of hardship in exchange for a lifetime of comfor

The simplest way for a family to prosper is to put the smartest person in the family on a pedestal, with everyone united around them.
Yet despite how simple this principle is, most families cannot do it. Even when there is a smart person in the family—someone capable of making money—and the other members know that this person is the sharpest in their circle, they are still unwilling to accept the fact that “this person is also the sharpest in the family.”
They oppose and argue with that person at every turn, and scheme against one another behind closed doors. Such a family has no chance of eve

The foremost principle of entrepreneurship is not pursuing unlimited upside, but protecting your downside in life. For a project that requires investing everything you own or even taking on debt, failure could have devastating consequences, potentially even forcing you to “restart your life.”
Before starting a business, be sure to assess the worst-case scenario. Once you go bankrupt, you may truly be unable to recover. This is not a game—there is no chance to start over.

Clear-mindedness is not standing apart from the crowd and looking down on the world, but maintaining independent thought when facing popular opinions and humility when facing your own judgments. It means having the courage to break through consensus, as well as the courage to correct yourself. ​​​

When you dislike someone, don’t rush to criticize them. The fact that you crossed paths often means you were once part of the same circle. True growth is not complaining about your environment, but increasing your own value so that you can enter a world where you don’t need to constantly drain yourself. ​​​

Why don’t young people want to get married anymore?
Meeting scumbag men and scumbag women—being irresponsible toward you in a relationship is already the least of it; if you’re unlucky, you end up marrying into a pile of debt. The other person hides that they borrowed money to gamble and “invest.” There are far too many real-life examples like this.
If your romantic fate is shallow and the time for cause and effect hasn’t arrived, there’s no need to force it.

The essence of making money is to create value by leveraging information gaps, cognitive gaps, and execution gaps. The biggest difference between ordinary people is not whether they have information, but whether they have the ability to obtain, filter, understand, and use high-value information. Wealth often belongs to those who continuously upgrade their cognition and turn cognition into action. ​​​

Many people who can make big money do it by changing their fate during a downturn. The greatest value of a low point is that it will destroy your old life system; in that period when no one helps you, no one understands you, and even no one looks down on you, you’re forced to complete a real social rebirth. For many people, later they can make big money, and it looks like things turned in their favor, but in reality it’s because during that downturn they completely changed their way of thinking and upgraded their life operating system. ​​​

Don’t think that since you’re already in your 30s, you’ve accomplished nothing and you’re finished—actually, you were finished the moment you were born; you just realize it only when you’re in your 30s.

An old man once told me a very insightful line. He said that switching jobs, starting a business, getting married, and moving to a new city—none of it is accomplished through a meticulous plan. It’s all about when an opportunity shows up; when you get impulsive, you clench your teeth and go for it, and then your life turns a corner. Only those unimportant matters—like what to eat, what to buy, and where to go for fun—you keep revisiting and carefully weighing again and again.
I remembered this line for many years, until I truly experienced it myself and then finally understood. So don’t overth

If several generations in a family have all made a living through physical labor, and the younger generation wants to do business, it’s truly harder than climbing to the heavens.
On the other hand, if someone in the family has done business—even if it was just running a stall—then the younger generation will likely follow the path of their elders. This generation may not be able to get rich overnight, but the next generation might be able to change the family’s fortunes.
It’s not that business families are necessarily smarter. It’s that your family is the first guide in your life. As the old s

When trading, beware of quitting your job—it’s not something you can do full-time. If you want to trade full-time, you must meet these conditions: First, you must have the ability to generate stable profits; it can’t be something you rely on big market moves to guess. At least there must be a clear trading system, along with proof from a two-year capital curve. Second, your family has cash savings with no major mortgage pressure, and you’re prepared to have no income for around one to two years; your family’s living conditions won’t be affected, and your mindset won’t change. Third, your tradi

A doctor friend cautioned me: never treat your own body like disposable supplies—many injuries are irreversible.
When cleaning the house and coming into contact with all kinds of cleaning agents, wear gloves properly. Don’t cut corners. Don’t treat your hands as disposable.
When there’s lots of dust, more pollutants, and more health hazards, wear a mask. Don’t treat your lungs as disposable.
When lifting heavy items, don’t be overconfident. Use a small hand truck if you can. If not, find someone to help share the load. Don’t treat your back as disposable.
If you can’t finish your food, that’s
