If you feel too tired to work

The turning point in your life is your attitude towards work.

Some time ago, a delivery boy posted his salary slip, which sparked heated discussions among millions of netizens.

On this long salary slip, every source of his salary is recorded in detail:

The total number of valid orders is 1927, and the number of supper orders is 64. Each order is 1.5 yuan, plus 400 yuan for attendance bonus, 474.5 yuan for rider subsidy, 40 yuan for praise reward, minus 390 yuan for overtime orders, 198 yuan for insurance...

One by one, the small items make up his salary - the basic delivery fee of 9531.9 yuan.

Some people may say that now you can earn nearly 10,000 a month by doing takeaways.

But what you can't see is that they make nearly 10,000 yuan by running non-stop for 13 or 4 hours a day.

For the 400 yuan attendance bonus, I dare not take a day off.

The most fearful thing is that if the car has a flat tire, the delivery time will be delayed, resulting in complaints and deductions... A bad review will deduct 20 yuan, and if it is deducted for one more day, it will be in vain.

Sometimes, you will feel that you are the most aggrieved person in the world, gnashing your teeth with a burden heavier than anyone else.

But think about it, who in this world has an easy life?

At 4 in the morning, sanitation workers have already started their day's work;

And some urban white-collar workers who are sitting in high-end office buildings and doing enviable jobs may have just arrived home from get off work at this moment.

There is no job without grievances.

No job is easy to make money from pictures

I saw a very sad video.

On the streets of Chengdu, a thin man over 60 years old was weighed down by more than 200 kilograms of goods.

The cargo was shaky and very dangerous.

But he couldn't care less.

It only makes 10 yuan to transport 100 catties of goods. He just wants to transport more and earn 20 yuan.

The traffic police told him to stop taking risks, but he choked and shook his head: "If I don't pull the goods, I can't make this money."

Who doesn't want to live brightly in this world, but all living beings have their own sufferings.

Everyone who tries to live hard has been wronged by work and slapped by life.

It's like the old grandma who was sleeping on the cart at 3am.

If it weren't for the compulsion of life, who would like to struggle to make up for the family at the age of living.

Just like the truck driver who wiped his tears while driving, when he found out that the fuel in the fuel tank had been stolen, he began to cry.

How many more trips does he need to make to make up for the loss?

Somerset Maugham wrote in "The Shackles of Human Nature":

"Without enough income, the hope of life is cut in half. You have to be deliberate, pay attention to money, and become small and humble."

Adults have too much heartache, all related to lack of money.

Writer You Lan once told such a story.

When a lady checked out, she found that there were a lot of people in line and the checkout was very slow.

It turned out that the 16-year-old boy at the cashier had been clumsy and made frequent mistakes. Either he couldn't scan things or he forgot to scan the barcode.

After a while, she heard someone scolding the boy: "Why hire you, your service is too bad!"

The boy was overwhelmed there.

So the lady stepped forward to persuade the customer to help the boy out of the siege. Unexpectedly, the boy came out of the cashier and hugged her and said:

"Thank you, my mom passed away this morning, I'm so sad, but I'm still working hard because I still have a lot of bills to pay..."

No one understands his grief for losing his mother, but he still has to keep working.

Because life does not slow down for anyone, we can only wipe our tears and stumble to catch up with the pace of life.

Someone asked on Zhihu: "Why is it so difficult to work, and there are still people who have to work hard?"

There is an answer below:

"The real meaning of work is the capital for you to settle down, to make you have money to eat and raise children, to be filial to your parents, and to let you wake up in the middle of the night without fear."

You can only be responsible to your family if you work hard to make money. You can't do anything unless you try your best.

If you want to make money, you have to put yourself down

Some people say that there are two kinds of people in this world, one with palms up and one with palms down.

People with palms up look noble, but they are only used to taking things; people with palms down know how to reach out and grab what they want at any moment.

Such people, even if their posture may not seem so graceful, are the heroes of life.

Some time ago, the self-media big V "Pharaoh who had to be a Buddhist" shared his story of his career change.

Lao Wang was the general manager of a private equity fund. He used to be a powerful player in the financial market, but was swept away by the company because of poor management.

I thought that I was an executive of the company, and it was not difficult to change jobs, but I was slapped in the face by reality.

No company hired him after he lost his job.

In order to support his family, Lao Wang became an online car-hailing driver, and changed from President Wang to Master Wang overnight.

Someone sneered: "Aren't you afraid of losing face? How embarrassing would it be to meet acquaintances, former subordinates and clients?"

The old king exclaimed:

"When you reach middle age, you can only be pragmatic, because there are old and young at this age, you can't stop. If you can't survive, you can only turn around and drive on the road."

Ren Zhengfei once said: "What I want is success, my face is empty, and I can't eat it."

Many people who have entered Huawei have become "tiger generals" who are resistant to falling and fighting under the call of this sentence.

When Huawei supervisor Li Jian was making products in Nigeria, he had been blocking the door of the toilet until he met the CEO of the other party.

When working, face back.

In this way, his face became "thick" and his willpower became stronger.

A few years later, Li Jian created a sales performance of 400 million US dollars a year and became the president of the West Africa region.

Zheng Yuanjie said in "Pipiru and the 419 Deadly Sins": "The result of wanting face is mostly loss of face."

As an adult, if he can put down his face to make money, he is not dignified.

Behind all halos, there are shadows

I know a private business owner who succeeded in starting a business at the age of 36. He built two suites in Beijing, and everyone around him envied him as a winner in life.

He shook his head:

"I have lost 100 times before I won this one time. 365 days a year, I work 365 days."

At that moment, I realized: In this world, there is no such thing as power for no reason.

All the seemingly effortless moments come from hard work day and night.

Best-selling author Ran Xuechan told the story of one of her classmates.

In college, when everyone was breaking their heads to earn credits and compete for scholarships, Tan often went to the library to read textbooks on CPA to prepare for exams.

Every winter and summer vacation, he can always be seen in the library doing questions.

Later, he not only was admitted to graduate school, but also obtained a CPA certificate during his postgraduate study and passed the judicial examination.

After graduation, he went to an investment bank in Shenzhen.

The work of the investment bank is very intense. In the first few years, he worked in addition to eating, without any complaints, and he did things rigorously and conscientiously.

It took him only 2 years to go from a novice in an investment bank to an independent team.

In those 2 years, he worked more than 12 hours a day, and the only little spare time left was spent in the gym.

No weekends, no holidays, no entertainment, always on call.

In the end, when he was promoted to manager on his own, he had already left his peers far behind.

There is no brilliance that waits, everything is the result of one's own efforts.

A student once asked Musk, the founder of Tesla, how did you get to where you are today?

Musk gave him a very important piece of advice: work super hard.

The turning point in your life is your attitude towards work.

Finally, share a story with you.

According to legend, if a carp wants to transform into a dragon, it must jump over the dragon gate.

There was a group of carp that tried several times to no avail, so they asked the Dragon King to lower the threshold.

The Dragon King persuaded them, saying that although the threshold could be lowered, it would be of no benefit to them, and they would regret it in the future.

But the carp didn't listen at all, they just wanted to turn into dragons immediately.

In the end, the Dragon King lowered the threshold as they wished.

But even if they jumped over the Dragon Gate, they couldn't soar in the sky like other golden dragons.

They had to go to the Dragon King again. The Dragon King said: "If you want to become a real dragon, you must skip the original dragon gate. If you lower the standard, you will naturally be different from the real dragon."

Tagore said:

"The hardships you suffer today, the losses you suffer, the responsibilities you bear, and the pain you endure will become light in the end, illuminating your path."

When you're at a low point, when you don't want to work, remember:

A person who can be full of vigor in the barren years of life and fight against fate will surely usher in his own good year again.
