  • Power and Determination

    Power and determination are not compatible together in the real world.

    As long as an individual has power then he or she could do whatever he or she wants. I disagree with this statement. Having power does not mean an individual can do whatever he or she wants. In the real world, we are living in the human society. Some people are naturally born to become a leader having lots of influences in the society because of networks. These networks are not built in an instant. It requires certain amount of the time to build up; in which it requires several decade and generational efforts to accumulate these foundations. Being able to connect with someone who is influential, is getting the influence on that person’s power. And this would require an individual to invest specific amount of the time to connect with the powerful people. The individual could not be truly autonomous. This is because he or she needs to become the version of the self being able to fit into the powerful people’s perfection as a means of being fit in.

    Being able to connect with the powerful people, or becoming the powerful person. There is a possibility, not requires competences. Being able to fit in the powerful community or the person’s vision, is the concept of being assimilate into the community. The powerful people has the right to define the standard culture.

    Therefore, desire being a powerful power, or getting to become powerful person to connect with the powerful individual. It is not equal to self-determination.

    Determination, is an individual could truly manifest oneself, without regarding what the others’ preconceived notion of the perfection. This is more likely to be the role of artist. Albeit this will enrich an individual intellectual freedom, this also is part of suffering cause the general public culture won’t appreciate. This act of deliberation could potentially challenge the standard culture, that would facilitate a new wave of innovation such as counter culture, awakening innate human soul, stretching the boundary of humanity.

  • How to deal with a new acquaintance in business world? 

    Your networks are your net-worth. This is the statement my friend said to me before I left New York City in February. 

    It is a true statement; and a successful business requires a successful network connecting with the right person to do the right thing. I have met lots of unprofessional dilettantes and slimy people in work. It is difficult to trust a person since everyone has an interest in the will of the wealth. 

    I found out a lot of people would like to earn the instant of wealth by earning lots of money at once. They do not have patient focusing on how to cultivate a successful business partnership. I am not denying this is not a success way to make money. It is only lucky minority people could do that by luck. For example, how many short sellers actually can beat the money now in this day? 

    It is important to improve my human capital improving the value of myself. This will help me to speak the words indicating the thoughtful value that would help me to meet the person who has the same goal. The journey is not easy; and that I need to be along first. Why this can help? Because a successful entrepreneur would work with other successful entrepreneurs. This is the reason why successful companies would work with successful companies. There is no easy part to success which world takes time. Once, an individual can be able to speak thoughtful sentences; and this will show his or her competence having the patient to master to this level; also this is a reflection of credit for an individual showing success does not have short cut. 

    It is very shitty to meet with new people in the first time. Because you do not know whether the person is a good person or evil person trying to stab you on your back. I therefore think it is critical that we need to be strategically working on the networking. Not to be cordial at first, showing the professionalism to tell the people there is no bullshit. Then if the new acquiescence  has an interest in working on a project. Start from small, and then gradually to build up. Indeed, you can tell if a person did not read enough by speaking to them in the beginning of the first couple sentence, as long as you have been reading all the time. 

    Once we start the project step by step; and then we will start to build up the trust. Then, the projects will more likely to reach the success. 

    The definition of success is more than just material; and also spiritual that even if business fail; and that the participants has reached spiritual success, and this will forge a new friendship to start next project. 

    A successful business is not about make money instant success, it is about how to build a community to help everyone to survive in society. 

  • The decision

    I made a decision to relinquish a business project that I can potentially make lots of money. The business project is almost complete 75%; and the problem is that the project is not legal that I found out two weeks ago.

    I did not decide to give up the project instantly when I found out the business is illegal. I decided to make sure the client’s engineer is happy with the product design; and then I was arranging the right time to give up the project. It was a good decision; and that I have left a good legacy for the clients.

    There are a variety of reasons why I give up the project.

    1. The project top executive is not an honest man. He did not profess sincerity from his words. At the same time, it took my time to doubt about what his sentences really meant, to which is pain my ass. If the project does not have a honest person, that the project is not going for long; and the productivity is extremely low. I do not work for the people who I do not respect.
    2. The project is supply the product for the clients. However, the product does not met the local legal requirements. There are lots of employees do not aware the lawfulness. This would put lots of employees to potentially risk being arrested to which is not a good legal consequence.
    3. The company does not commit long term obligations. I spoke to one of the owners in the company. She did not respond back with attentive answers regarding on the future of company. I do not know what they really want for the future company position.

    4. Since the project is become a burden, then I have to focus on the project that would serve the long term purpose. I will work on something that will improve the better quality of outcomes.

    Albeit the rain was fallen, the sun was still there.
