"Making money" is just a way of saying it. If you take it as the logic of making money, it is a pure poor man's thinking, and you will never be rich in your lifetime.
The underlying logic of making real money is: money is not earned by yourself, but by others after you help others solve problems. I call it the "return theory".
You might say: Isn't that the same thing? No, there is an essential difference!
If you are a migrant worker and think that the money is earned.
When you need more money, you can only work hard to earn more overtime pay; Or find one or several part-time jobs and use more spare time to earn some labor remuneration.
Obviously, this way of earning money cannot get you out of poverty and become rich, but you just exchanged your hard work for three melons and two dates.
Because the problems you help others solve are too small, and they are destined to not get a higher return.
As a part-time worker, if you know the "return theory", you will know that if you want to become richer, what you have to do is to improve your ability to help others solve more valuable problems.
For example, if you improve your professional skills and help companies or other customers solve technical problems, you will inevitably get more rewards.
For example, if you improve your comprehensive management ability, you can lead the team to create more business value for the company, and the rewards will be more lucrative.
If you want to start your own business, the benefits of the "return theory" will be more obvious throughout the business behavior.
In the selection of projects, it is necessary to have a clear positioning: who are you for, and what kind of problems have you solved?
For example, if you want to open a restaurant, you can't make money by doing everything yourself and working hard.
Before starting a business, consider which group of people you want to help solve a problem.
Is it a business person with a certain economic strength, or a salaryman, or a relatively low-income person?
Is it to help them solve the problem of burying their stomachs, or to help them solve the problem of party banquets?
Understand these problems you want to solve, and you will be able to pay off accordingly. Then compare and judge the feasibility of the project.
In business, it is also necessary to uphold the "return theory".
If you open a restaurant, it's mainly a place for working-class people to feast. And this customer volume can also make you satisfied.
When customers come to your store to entertain friends, and you provide him with a satisfactory environment, taste, and the right one, they are willing to become your long-term customers and give you more returns.
Essentially, there is a huge difference in the perception of wealth between the two concepts of "earning" and "returning".
"Making money" pays more attention to labor remuneration, and "return" is more inclined to capital operation.
Labor is the sale of time, and our time is limited; "Return" is investment, packaging, and operation, and there is no upper limit to the value it brings.
Of course, if you want high returns, you must take high risks.
Some people like a dull, busy life, do not pursue too much material reward, and think that it is enough to earn some money to support their families. It's also a peaceful attitude to life, and there's nothing wrong with it.
However, if you want to toss and become rich, then the first thing you need to shape is your own thinking and philosophy.
