Jack Ma said: My most regrettable mistake is...

In 2001, I made a mistake. I told my 18 co-founders that they could only be group managers, and all vice presidents had to be hired from outside.

　　 Ten years have passed. The talents I hired from outside have all gone, and the people I had previously doubted about their abilities have become vice presidents or directors.

　　 I believe in two tenets: Attitude is more important than ability, and choice is also more important than ability!

Don't believe that you can unify people's minds, it is impossible.

　　 30% of people can never believe you. Don’t let your colleagues work for you, but let them work for our common goal.

　　 It is much easier to unite under a common goal than to unite around one person.

① Some people think that I am awesome and convinced Sun Zhengyi in 6 minutes. In fact, he persuaded me. Before meeting Sun Zhengyi, I was rejected at least 40 times in Silicon Valley.

　　②When you do business, you win in the details and lose in the pattern.

　　③The pattern, "shape" is personality, "game" is mind, people with good details generally have poor patterns, people with good patterns never pay attention to details, and do both well, that is called too talented!

Leaders should never compare skills with subordinates. Subordinates are definitely better than you; if they are not better than you, it means you have hired the wrong person.

　　①More than vision: farther than him;

　　②Better than bosom: the bosom of the leader is big for grievances, and it must be able to tolerate what others cannot tolerate;

　　③ Better than strength: the ability to resist failure is stronger than him; the qualities of a good leader are vision, mind and strength

。

①What is failure? Giving up is the biggest failure.

　　②What is strong? After many hardships, grievances, and unhappiness, you only know what is strong.

　　③What is your duty? It is your duty to be more diligent, harder, and more ideal than others.

　　④Fools speak with their mouths, wise people speak with their heads, and wise people speak with their hearts.

I told myself that we are not here to work in this world, we are here to enjoy life, and we are here to be human, not to do things.

　　 If you do things all your life and forget to be a human being, you will regret it in the future.

　　 No matter how successful, great, or terrific a career is, remember that we come to this world to enjoy the experience of experiencing this life.

　　 Busy doing things will definitely regret it.

①It is the most stupid business war that must fight for life and death.

　　②The eyes are all enemies, and the outside is all enemies.

　　③Don't bring hatred when you compete. Bring hatred will definitely fail.

　　④The fun of competition is like playing chess. If you lose, we will come again. Two chess players can't fight.

　　⑤There is no enemy when you truly do a business, you are invincible in your heart, and invincible in the world.

Humans are the most degraded animals. Compared with beasts, humans are "weak limbs", and compared with dogs, people are "sound-blind", but humans have "evolved" and complained.

　　 Occasionally, it is fine, but when complaining becomes a habit, it is like drinking sea water. The more you drink, the more thirsty you get.

　　 finally found that those who walked on the road to success were "fools" who didn't complain.

　　The world will not remember what you said, but it will never forget what you did!

① Opportunities that everyone can't see clearly are real opportunities.

　　② Let employees work with a smile.

　　③Customers first, employees second, shareholders third.

　　④ Change before you change.

　　⑤Forget about money, forget about making money.

　　⑥ Being clever is worse than being stupid and insisting.

　　⑦The mentality determines the posture, and the posture determines the state.

①A good thing is often unclear, and a clear thing is often not a good thing!

　　②Find the most suitable person for entrepreneurship, not necessarily the most successful person.

　　③The most unreliable thing in this world is relationship.

　　④ Free is the most expensive thing in the world.

　　⑤Today is cruel, tomorrow will be more cruel, and the day after tomorrow will be beautiful.

①The most afraid of starting a business is not seeing, looking down, not understanding, and not keeping up;

　　②Can't see where the opponent is, look down on the opponent, don't understand why the opponent can become so strong, and then can't keep up;

　　③Even if your opponent is weak, you must see the opponent as strong. Even if your opponent is strong, you don’t have to see yourself as weak.

It means:

　　①No stable income; ②No right to ask for leave; ③No chance to get red envelopes.

　　, however, means more:

　　①Income is no longer restricted; ②Use of time is more effective; ③The palm of the hand is down without asking for help.

　　 If you think differently, the result will be different; if you choose differently, your life will change.

If 90% of people say "good" for a plan, I must throw it in the trash can.

　　Because so many people have said a good plan, there are bound to be many people working on it, and the opportunity will definitely not be ours.
