What impressed me most about this article is this paragraph:
In this world, people who are willing to believe in "new possibilities" are always more successful than those who don't. If you are willing to lengthen the timeline, it is 100%.
I believe there are many people who have changed more than me. They may bite their teeth to learn English to double their ability, learn tea ceremony and floral art to make themselves more artistic, enroll in TTT to cultivate themselves into first-class, study subjects to make their academic qualifications by going up one flight of stairs, go to enterprises with low salaries but learn a lot to make themselves more competitive, learn dance to make themselves more elegant, and spend all their money on tourism to make themselves have a broad vision. ..
Three years ago in July, when I read this article, I was still a small clerk in real estate sales. I didn't expect that I would be in Beijing three years later, staying in the crowded Wudaokou and having my own independent career.
Sophia Kao's words are full of magic for me. Because of many things after that, I tried with the mentality of "maybe there will be new possibilities" For example:
Every Friday night, I always take time to go to the coffee shop near my company to hold a reading party. At that time, I always wore a blackboard suit and black high heels, much like a poor sales girl. Friends of the book club once suspected that I only had one suit.
I feel very inferior to my image, and try to find a teacher to do image consultation. If this consultation is not successful, if I can become bosom friends with such an elegant and beautiful teacher, I will also earn it.
I began to try to share my life and work on the Weibo, which was very ordinary, without any taste or bondage. I think, if you can't accumulate fans, it's good to see your favorite role models.
In this way, I am like a slow tortoise. I have no certainty and prediction about the road ahead, but I am still willing to give myself full expectations. Until this expectation blossomed slowly, people around me told me: Feng Rui, you have changed.
I just quietly look back at myself in the past and myself now. You know:
Because of the rapid development of the book club, I accidentally met the local entrepreneurial elite in Xiamen and friends who love reading all over the country. So, I changed my career trajectory. Benefiting from the online world, I finally stepped into the Internet workplace runway.
Because of the improvement of image, I insist on going out with makeup every day, learning to match and dress, and paying attention to manners. I began to have more and more confidence in myself. This self-confidence has sublimated my soul from the inside out.
In my writing class, I have a friend named A Qing. She told me that she likes to follow a person's past, so she looked at all my Weibo in four years. She told me that my past Weibo gave her the strength to keep improving.
"Look at your previous state, coming step by step and getting better step by step. I think I can. " She told me.
She later told me that she kept a diary in the morning for 690 days. I immediately encouraged her to write down her thoughts in the morning diary. Maybe you can develop in this field. I also mentioned Sophia Kao's article "Believe in new possibilities" by the way.
Soon, she carefully wrote an article about the morning diary and contributed it. This article was first posted on the homepage and then forwarded by many WeChat tuba. She became a nobody in the morning diary and was invited by many communities to be a guest and share the miracle of the morning diary.
There are few people like A Qing. The problem for most of us is that we began to doubt the possibility of this matter before we did it.
Wechat backstage often receives such questions:
Q 1: I want to learn to write, but is writing promising?
Q2: I want to work in the Internet in the future. I have no experience in this field. Can I do that?
When I communicate with friends and family, I often encounter such problems:
Q 1: I want to change my job, and I don't know if that job will work.
Q2: I've always wanted to learn makeup, but I'm so busy at work that I don't have time to learn it, and I don't know if I'm suitable for it.
Actually, I don't have an answer to this question. The only way to solve this kind of problem-believe in this possibility and try boldly.
When you really start doing it, you may find that:
You walk from room to room.
Looking for a diamond necklace
It's already on your shoulder.

Next time, when you want to do something, don't ask others how to choose, please try it boldly first.
If you want to be a travel experiencer, you should quickly find a travel agency to cooperate, instead of obsessing about the prospects of this industry;
If you want to change jobs, you should prepare your resume and find the company you like, instead of staying in the company.
If you want to be a freelancer, you should do a sideline job after work and find the basis for settling down, instead of hesitating when to leave;
would you ......
Even if I fail, I will not die, so I am not afraid of anything.
Of course, once you do it, your life will be completely different.
Finally, to put it bluntly, when you believe in new possibilities, your life begins to have "possibilities", otherwise you can only get stuck in a stagnant pool.
