Chapter 4 Success Factors (4)
Before starting his career, Kakuda Shimimi, chairman of Kakuda Construction Company in Japan, had been thinking about: "How can I make a lot of money with no or very little capital?" Finally, he came up with a set of "reservation sales" method, The implementation effect is very good.Since then, he has embarked on the road to prosperity.His "sale by appointment" is not complicated to say, it started with a business.
Kakuda Shikimi is determined to make a career in the real estate industry, so he has been collecting information on the realization of his plan.When he learned from the society that someone was going to sell a building for 80 yen, he immediately tried to find buyers who might buy the building, and revealed limited information to them, thus figuring out what they wanted to buy like this. The price of a building tends to be around 170 million yen.Then he signed a purchasing agent contract with one of them, agreeing to help find a suitable house within the next two months.In fact, at this time, he already had a plan in mind.After that, he went to the house seller to negotiate, and finally finalized the transaction at a price of 80 yen, and immediately went through the formalities and paid in full within 3 days.If the payment is not made within 3 days, Kakuta will be responsible for selling the building within 10 days, and there will be a 10% penalty if the payment is overdue.In fact, he has no money at all, and the above is just his plan to delay the attack.
The rest of the work is the key, which is to find an intermediate buyer. He wants this buyer to buy the building, and then he will sell it on his behalf. It is guaranteed that the buyer can make 3% of the profit within two months, and the excess will go to Kakuda .For intermediate buyers, earning 170% profit in two months is much higher than the bank's annual interest rate, and there are guarantees, so it is safe and feasible.So this kind of buyer is easy to find.With the guarantee of his friend, he quickly completed the contract of buying and selling on behalf of the intermediate buyer.At this time, the 82-day time agreed with the seller had passed, and it happened that the buyer in the middle of the agent bought the building and completed the first stage of the reservation purchase.Then, he immediately went back to find the real buyer who had made an appointment, and through negotiation, he sold the building at a price of [-] million yen, completing the originally scheduled sale.In this way, in less than a month, he made a net profit of [-] yen.It's really borrowing a little chicken to lay a big egg.
There is plenty of money in the world, it depends on whether you can operate it, and finally turn other people's money into your own money.How do you spend your money?What are your plans and plans for spending money?What is the principle of spending money?Are you going to invest your money?This is like farmers farming. If they plant without a plan and sow seeds everywhere, then they will not only waste precious resources, but also face the fate of poor harvest.Sowing without a plan, of course, is impossible to have a satisfactory harvest.So from now on, you should make a plan for yourself and start investing rationally.First of all, you should spend some time thinking about your view of money, and ask yourself: Are you willing to give up your lifelong ideals for making money?What do you think "poverty" is? What does it feel like to be "poor"?What's your take on rich people?What's your take on making "big money"?How do you want to make money?How would you like to use your money to help others?When you die, what do you plan to do with your money?
There are many, many who have not sat down quietly to consider these matters.However, in order to pursue real success, it is important to first figure out how you think about money.

(Chapter 9 Habits - Sowing Good Habits, Reaping Successful Character
"Habit" is like a speeding train, its inertia makes people unable to stop rushing forward.There may be heaven ahead, and there may be hell. Habits are your steering wheel. "Habit" is 1+1, and 1+1=2, "2" is the result, and "2" is the destiny.
Behavior becomes habit, habit shapes character, and character determines destiny.It turns out that the cornerstone of destiny is the behavior of forming habits.
Habits either make you or break you
The dog family gave birth to a very ambitious and ambitious puppy, who announced to the whole family that he was going to cross the desert.All the dogs came to congratulate him.Amid the cheers, the puppy packed up food, water, and hit the road. Three days later, the news that the puppy died suddenly came.
What caused this ideal puppy to die?Food, and lots of it, not enough water?No, there is still water in the kettle.Later, they finally discovered the reason why the puppy died—the puppy was suffocated to death by urine.
The reason why they are suffocated by urine is because dogs have a habit: they must pee next to the tree trunk.Since there were no trees or electric poles in the desert, the poor puppy suffocated for 3 days and finally died of suffocation.
Dogs are like this, what about people?
Dogs are animals of habit, and humans are also animals of habit, the advanced animals of habit.Habit, also known as inertia, is a common law of the universe and an unstoppable force. "Winter is coming, can spring be far behind?" This is an unstoppable force.An apple will inevitably fall when it leaves the branch, and it also has an unstoppable force.
Throughout our lives, the brain's nerves drive us to make relevant actions.The repetition of this kind of action in the same environment makes us unconsciously get used to it.
Everyone will develop many habits in life, but sometimes you have to examine whether all your habits are beneficial, if they are good habits, stick to them; if you find that the habits are bad, you must correct them.
Without inertia there is no power.For example, for a stationary train, to prevent it from sliding, you only need to put a 1-inch thick piece of wood in front of each driving wheel, but if the train is traveling at 100 kilometers per hour, even a 5-foot-thick wood Reinforced concrete walls can't stop it, which shows how great the power of inertia is!
After the Great Library of Alexandra was burned, only one book survived, but it was not a book of great value.A poor man who could read a few words bought the book for a few copper coins.The content of this book is not very interesting, but there is one very interesting thing in it, which is a narrow strip of parchment, on which is written the secret of the "philosopher's stone".The Philosopher's Stone is a small stone that can turn any common metal into pure gold.The text on the parchment explained that the Philosopher's Stone was on the beach of the Black Sea, mixed with thousands of smaller pebbles that looked exactly like it, but that the real Philosopher's Stone was warm to the touch, while ordinary stones were warm to the touch. cold.Then this man sold his few possessions, bought some simple equipment, pitched a tent by the Black Sea, and began to rummage through the stones.
He knows that if he picks up an ordinary stone that feels cold to the touch and throws it on the ground, he is likely to pick up the same stone hundreds of times, so when he touches the cold stone, he throws it into the ground. in the sea.He worked like this all day without picking up the touchstone.Then he went on like this for a week, a month, a year, and three years, but he still couldn't find the philosopher's stone.But he went on like this: picked up a stone, it was cold, and threw it into the sea; picked up another stone, and if it was still cold, threw it into the sea again...
But one day he picked up a stone, which was warm, and he threw it into the sea anyway.Because he had formed a habit of throwing all the stones he picked up into the sea.He's so used to throwing stones that when the one he really wants comes along, he throws it into the ocean anyway!
It seems that habits, especially bad habits, can sometimes become an obstacle to your success and make you throw away the opportunities you hold in your hands.
Our daily performance, that is, our habits, are actually opportunities to change our destiny-we must treat every stone as a touchstone and accumulate it around us.Remember, when you throw pebbles into the sea, bad habits doom you to a sad fate.Good habits can make you, bad habits can destroy you.
Get used to it bit by bit
"Habits" are little by little, repeated in circles.Countless repeated actions and actions form habits.Good habits and bad habits are formed in this way.How the Steel Was Tempered?How is the dross accumulated?It's all the same.The key step to success is to act immediately and get used to it.The fundamental difference between doers and dreamers is whether they have developed good habits.
The sages of our country have a wonderful summary of the formation of habits: "If you don't accumulate steps, you can't reach thousands of miles; if you don't accumulate small currents, you can't form rivers and seas."
The formation of good habits mainly depends on people's self-discipline, or in other words, people's restraint on their own desires.But bad habits, like reeds and weeds, grow everywhere, and hinder the growth of virtue, and turn a beautiful garden into a weedy wasteland.Once those bad habits are sown, they are often difficult to get rid of for several years.
A good habit can produce great power. If you repeat a useful thing over and over again, gradually, you will like to do it, so that all difficulties will seem insignificant.The power of habit is enormous, it can break through difficult obstacles and help you on the road to success.It was through diligent training that Abraham Lincoln developed his concise, clear, powerful speech style.Wendell Phillips also developed his excellent thinking ability and outstanding conversation ability through hard practice.
Mr. Rand works hard and has outstanding achievements. He is 48 years old and has an annual income of 22.1 US dollars, five times that of ordinary families, a typical high-income family.Looking at his 5 small cars, he is very complacent, but 6 are rented and 2 are purchased on credit. Of course, the house is also a mortgage loan.
On the surface, Mr. Rand is hardworking and living a comfortable life, but in fact, he lives in fear: the accumulated wealth is too little, which can only cover his family's expenses for a year, not to mention the debts behind him.He had to work hard, driving his imported car that had to be paid back constantly, leaving early and returning late like a bee.He worked his ass off just to pay off his debts.In fact, with his annual income, he should have a net worth of at least US$100 million, but he doesn't!
The thing is very simple, as long as he gets rid of the bad habit of spending money indiscriminately and the bad habit he developed since he was a child, he can have enough net assets.For example, the Rands spent $20 on smoking alone over 33190 years—more than the price of their house!If you invest in funds, you will have a profit of 10 US dollars; if you buy the stocks of a tobacco company, such as Philip Morris Tobacco Company, you only buy but not sell, what will happen?It will be worth over $200 million!
However, they never thought of such a "little change"!My parents are old, and I am 48 years old. While still earning a high income, I am still paying off the debt that should have been unpaid long ago!
When people reach the age of 25 or 30, it is difficult for us to find out what changes they will have.But the good news is that while it is easy to pick up a bad habit when one is young, it is almost as easy to pick up a good one.And, just as vices are strengthened in evil deeds, so good habits are strengthened and enhanced in good deeds.
If you want to make a good behavior into your habit, but this kind of behavior is so unfamiliar to you, then please remember: "Just do it a few times!" The formation of a habit is just the accumulation of actions. Repetition of cranial nerve commands.The more you do a behavior, the deeper the stimulation and memory of your brain nerves, and the more proficient your response will be, then this habit belongs to you.
Habits of success, focus on cultivating

On the surface, Mr. Rand is hardworking and living a comfortable life, but in fact, he lives in fear: the accumulated wealth is too little, which can only cover his family's expenses for a year, not to mention the debts behind him.He had to work hard, driving his imported car that had to be paid back constantly, leaving early and returning late like a bee.He worked his ass off just to pay off his debts.In fact, with his annual income, he should have a net worth of at least US$100 million, but he doesn't!
The thing is very simple, as long as he gets rid of the bad habit of spending money indiscriminately and the bad habit he developed since he was a child, he can have enough net assets.For example, the Rands spent $20 on smoking alone over 33190 years—more than the price of their house!If you invest in funds, you will have a profit of 10 US dollars; if you buy the stocks of a tobacco company, such as Philip Morris Tobacco Company, you only buy but not sell, what will happen?It will be worth over $200 million!
However, they never thought of such a "little change"!My parents are old, and I am 48 years old. While still earning a high income, I am still paying off the debt that should have been unpaid long ago!
When people reach the age of 25 or 30, it is difficult for us to find out what changes they will have.But the good news is that while it is easy to pick up a bad habit when one is young, it is almost as easy to pick up a good one.And, just as vices are strengthened in evil deeds, so good habits are strengthened and enhanced in good deeds.
If you want to make a good behavior into your habit, but this kind of behavior is so unfamiliar to you, then please remember: "Just do it a few times!" The formation of a habit is just the accumulation of actions. Repetition of cranial nerve commands.The more you do a behavior, the deeper the stimulation and memory of your brain nerves, and the more proficient your response will be, then this habit belongs to you.
Habits of success, focus on cultivating
