Middle age is a critical period in life, but it does not mean that people can only wait to "turn off the fire" when they reach this stage. Just like the successful experiences of Yuan Zheng, the founder of Zoom, and Ren Zhengfei, the founder of Huawei, middle-aged people also have the opportunity to usher in their own explosion. This article will cover four signs that middle-aged people are starting to break out and how to actively invest in themselves, stay healthy, get out of the consumerist trap, and do every little thing well.
1. Invest in yourself like crazy.
Warren Buffett once said, "The best investment is to invest in yourself." "Investing in yourself means constantly learning, improving your knowledge and perspective. As the author has experienced it himself, reading an EMBA proves that investing in yourself is the smartest investment. By systematically learning management thinking and making friends in different fields, the author achieves a breakthrough in both professional ability and social relationships. Therefore, middle-aged people should be good at investing in themselves and improving their knowledge and skills, which is the key to welcoming future wealth.
2. Take good care of your body.
Plato once said, "There are three great treasures in life, and the first wealth is health." "Health is the most important resource in life, and without health, all other wealth is meaningless. Therefore, middle-aged people should pay attention to their physical health and maintain their health through good living habits, reasonable diet and moderate exercise. In the high-pressure and fast-paced modern society, middle-aged people should pay special attention to preventing the emergence of sub-health status, and cannot only pay attention to the superficial physical examination data, but ignore the real physical and mental health.
3. Stay away from the trap of consumerism.
The middle class often falls into the three traps of consumerism: overconsumption, blind pursuit of fashion, and comparison. Middle-aged people must learn to do what they can, not to be in debt for the so-called "face", and not to fall into a bottomless pit because of comparison. It is normal to pursue a better life, but to consume wisely, do not blindly chase fashion, and maintain your own lifestyle and consumption habits. Middle-aged people should realize that happiness comes not only from material enjoyment, but also from their inner feelings and the balance of life.
Fourth, do every little thing well.
In "Youth", Semuel Ullman said, "Break down every big project into small concrete things, and do every little thing well." "Middle-aged people must know how to be down-to-earth, focus on doing the things in front of them, and continue to accumulate and improve. Just as Lou Zhongping, chairman of Shuangtong Group, made straws, through focus and precipitation, he finally created his own "straw kingdom". Middle-aged people should do every little thing well, and through continuous accumulation and refinement, they will eventually usher in their own outbreak.
Middle-aged people can meet their own outburst by investing in themselves like crazy, staying healthy, staying away from the trap of consumerism, and focusing on doing every little thing well. Middle age does not mean stagnation, only continuous learning and growth can usher in greater breakthroughs and success in this critical period. Let's seize the opportunity to meet the road to the explosion of middle age.
