Optimistic Ma does not shed tears

When people see Jack Ma, he is always happy with a smile on his face. It is not that Jack Ma does not have trouble, pain, bad things, Jack Ma is also a person, is also ordinary people, ordinary people some joys and sorrows, Jack Ma also has. Jack Ma experienced those failures, if put on ordinary people, would have crushed him. Optimism is Ma Yun does not shed tears, but also the premise of his success.

After graduating from college, Ma applied for more than 30 jobs, but was not accepted. Ma Yun and five classmates took the police school, four were admitted, Ma Yun was not admitted; Twenty-four people applied for a fast food company at the same time, twenty-three were accepted, or Ma was not accepted. These blows, put on the average person, is not a lifetime depression, at least will be temporarily depressed; And Ma said only this sentence: "Maybe this is God arrange your own business, should not work for others!"

"Should not work for others" Ma Yun, since then firmly on a new entrepreneurial road. Ma said, "To be a person, we need to have emotional intelligence, intelligence, and courage to take on responsibilities. I believe that the intelligence of the young generation must be much higher than that of their parents. I don't have a high IQ. If I had a high IQ, I probably wouldn't have started a business. Because I wasn't very good at school, I couldn't find a good job, so I had to do it myself. I'm not emotionally intelligent. How does high EQ come about? Trials, failures, disappointments, confusion, pain, disappointment, all of these things come together to create a high EQ." For Ma, who is "short at the head" in school, he does not have the bright spot of excellent students in famous universities, and it is not easy to find a job. The more frustrated the more brave Ma Yun, so stubborn to choose the Internet.

Jack Ma chose the Internet when he invited more than 20 friends to his home, only one person agreed, the others were against. 'It was late 1994,' Mr. Ma recalled. So many friends said in unison "this is completely unreliable" "Ma, you do not understand the computer, do not understand management, no money, no relationship, why do you want to start a business? Why start a business? Even today, Jack Ma is still not clear about the problem of "why to start a business"; Ma later said: "I always feel uncomfortable not to do this thing, so I want to give it a try, if I can't do it." In this way, Ma began to act. For those who don't have a prestigious degree, Ma teaches you to be confident, take action, don't be discouraged, and don't look down on yourself.

The road of entrepreneurship is hard. "No one can succeed easily," Ma tells entrepreneurs from experience. When others complained and opposed, Ma silently insisted, this persistence is 15 years, to come to today. Ma said: "Today, if I have to start a business again, I must find a good boss, find a good team, follow them to start a business. It's fun. It's entrepreneurship. You don't have to be your own boss. It's good to be your own boss and do it yourself, but it's also good to do it with someone good." If not "entrepreneurship is difficult to fight more", Ma also would not have such emotion.

Ma encouraged the crowd: "I want to prove that if Jack Ma can succeed, then 80 percent of young people in China can succeed. We didn't get a penny from the government, we didn't get a penny from the banks, and no one would lend us a penny; We are not famous college students. We are ordinary college students." Road at their own feet, opportunity is their own to give, don't give up, more don't give yourself discouraged, to Ma Yun as an example, to ordinary college students brave choice of entrepreneurship, will make a difference; If you don't try, how do you know you can't? This is irresponsible to oneself, but also irresponsible to life.

"Let me tell you, I had the opportunity to communicate with Warren Buffett, Bill Gates and George Soros, and I found that they all have many qualities that we can learn from," Ma said. First, they are optimistic. It is rare to hear them complain, not that they don't complain, everyone is born complaining, but to be optimistic and positive about the future, they only find opportunities when people complain. Second, they are active, they have the courage to take responsibility and dare to take action. Third, they are more persistent than average."

There is no shortcut to success. "One day you start a business, or join a team of entrepreneurs, and when you or your boss find it hard to keep going, you go home and sleep on it and get up in the morning and do it again. Very few people have seen me cry, because I don't have time to cry." Optimistic outlook on the future, actively looking for opportunities, have to adhere to the responsibility, to succeed.
