The driver has a salary of $ 750/month, the rich boss wants to give $ 250,000 as a retirement present but was refused and the shocking answer
Sometimes just a smile, or a saying is enough to make a difference to our lives, and make it more meaningful. Our worst misfortune is living with people who have a negative mindset, lack extensive knowledge, and have a broad perspective, which will make our lives bland and tasteless.
Li Ka-shing curiously asked: Each month you earn 750$, how could you get $2 million for 30 years? The driver answered: Every time I heard you talking over the phone wanting to buy any land or the stock was about to rise, I immediately noted down and took some of my savings to buy a little bit. Now the assets are worth $2 million .
Grass is also just grass, but when tied with cabbage, it is the same price as cabbage. Using to tie the crab, it is also the same price as the crab.
So when we humans are born, it's important to have a good teacher. Going to work with a good mentor, going out meeting good friends, and getting married with a good partner.
In life, the unhappiest thing is: Meet negative people who do not want to progress, not having vision into the future. Making friends with such people will make life trivial, dark.
There is a saying: your income is equal to the average of your best 5 friends!
I still remember my mother and another lady got along really well. She is very clever, every word she says makes others feel comfortable. My mother and I both liked her very much, but after that, they stopped hanging out. I asked her why she didn't come to visit anymore, she told me a short story. During a shopping trip, the two bought a large bag of fruit to take home and then split. Later, my mother went to her house to pick it up, only to find out that she kept all the big and beautiful fruits for herself and wrapped all the bad and small ones for my mother. She thought that my mother would not know, but in fact, a sharp-eyed person could tell by just looking. After that, my mother also discovered a few more things through which, she realized that as long as there was a conflict of interest with someone, her friend had to win more at all costs.
My mother didn't say it, but she thought that there was no meaning in being associated with such a person, so the two of them didn't go back and forth like before. At that time, my mother told me a something that I still remember to this day: To see through a person's dignity, it is enough just to observe the time when you and them have a conflict of interest.
When you and someone else are faced with a conflict of interest, especially when one's interests are at stake, their response will best show the dignity in that person."
Billionaire Li Ka-shing advises everyone to set the highest goals, get to know and make friends with all types of people. Making friends with each type of person will help you learn a lot. Making friends with different types of people also helps you understand many things in life as well as help each other in work or private life.
