赚大钱的人与你最大的差别,就在于他与你的思考模式和管理时间不同。

赚钱靠努力,赚大钱则是靠正确的策略与方法,正因如此,思考就是一切正确的策略与

方法的起源。

　　也就是说,假如你要成功致富的话,就要去花时间思考一些有效的致富策略。

什么是思考?思考就是问与答的过程。你看,问了一个“什么是思考?”然后答了一

个,“问与答的过程”。这就是思考。

　　那么问与答,首先是问。有了好的提问,才能产生好的答案,才能完成一个好的思

考过程。

　　赚大钱的人之所以做得比你好,比你有效率,就是因为他善于向自己提出问题。

我可以提出几个问题,让你去寻找答案。比方: 哪些服务是我能提供,而别人无法提

供的?

哪些需求尚未被满足?

有什么领域还未被开发?

如何能在我现在提供的服务或产品上增加价值?

有没有更有效的生产某种产品的方法?

某项产品的制造成本还能降低吗?

什么是人们愿意花钱购买,但市场上还没有卖的东西?

对于我的顾客,我怎样可以帮上更多的忙?

世界第一名潜能大师安东尼罗宾,在他公司陷入财务危机的时候,不但没有宣布倒闭,

反而还向自己问了一个问题:“我如何才能做到一天24小时服务?”

对这个问题,最后他想出来了一个方法,就是制作了一套自学课程,让电视每天通过广

告来销售。因而他成了世界上收入最高的训练演说家。

大部分人之所以没有致富,根本原因就是因为他们不愿好好思考,也不会做正确的思

考。

观念决定贫富.思路决定出路。

China People

POPULATION:

The People's Republic of China is a unified, multi-national country, comprising of 56 nationalities. The Han people make up 91.02 percent of the total population, leaving 8.98 percent for the other 55 ethnic minorities. They are Mongolian, Hui, Tibetan, Uygur, Miao, Yi, Zhuang, Bouyei, Korean, Manchu, Dong, Yao, Bai, Tujia, Hani, Kazak, Dai, Li, Lisu, Va, She, Gaoshan, Lahu, Shui, Dongxiang, Naxi, Jingpo, Kirgiz, Tu, Daur, Mulam, Qiang, Blang, Salar, Maonan, Gelo, Xibe, Achang, Pumi, Tajik, Nu, Ozbek, Russian, Ewenki, Benglong, Bonan, Yugur, Jing, Tatar, Drung, Oroqen, Hezhen, Moinba, Lhoba and Gelo. All nationalities in China are equal according to the law. The Constitution protects their lawful rights and interests and promotes equality, unity and mutual help among them.

Chinese population is distributed unevenly with more in the east (more than 300 persons per square kilometer) and fewer in the west (about 40 persons per square kilometer). The national average density of population is 119 per square kilometer (1990 census). The average size of household was 3.7 persons. The proportion of population aged at 0-14 was 26.4 percent, those aged 15-64 was 67.2 percent, and that of people aged 65 and over was 6.4 percent. The Average Chinese life span of the population was 70.8 years--for males was 68.71 years. and females was 73.04 years. (Some of the above data is based on the report from China National Statistics Bureau, FOR YOUR REFERENCE ONLY).

China has a population of 1.2 billion, about half of which are under the age of 30. There are ninety-five cities that have more than 1 million people, including such urban centers are Shanghai, Beijing, Tianjin, Shenyang, Wuhan, Guangzhou, Harbin, Chongqing, Nanjiang, Xi'an and Chengdu. Five cities (Beijing, Shanghai, Tianjin, Shenyang, and Wuhan) have well over 5 million. Shanghai is the largest city in China with a population of 14 million.

China is NOT the China you know from your grandfather or from your school textbook or from the news media surrounding you today. Even CNN hasn't come close yet. You can not dig a hole in your backyard and expect to get to see the Great Wall and a slow boat will take you forever to reach the China shore. Outside the country, China is an illusion created by sensational journalism. China is NOT the China you read from Chinese newspapers or magazines at home either. The only way to learn about China and her people is to land yourself on the soil of that country, stand among the numerous construction cranes everywhere, inhale the polluted air brought about by cars newly imported or built and to join the crowd, feel the country's heartbeat through your efforts to communicate with the Chinese people.

Nobody has ever said, China is a melting pot but there are 55 ethno-linguistic groups or minority nationalities residing in China.

They differ in language, habit, religion and even physical features. Han is the largest group, accounting for 95% of the population. Others include Zhuang, Miao, Uygur, Tibetan, Mongolian and Korean.

Even among Han people, there are a lot of differences. Northern Hans are taller and characteristically, more straight forward and eat more wheat products. Southerners are shorter and more slim and favor sweets. Hans of the mid provinces, such as Sichuan and Hunan, because of the humidity, favor spicy food. (Chinese people believe eating spicy is among the attributes of a leader since so many earlier communist leaders started out from this region).

Most of the ethnic people are more forthright and simpler than Hans of the east coast. Shanghainese are most famous for their shrewd calculations of every penny but no matter what their characters, if you treat them fair, they will treat you fair.

China has one official language, Chinese. Written Chinese is the same all over the country but when spoken, it is a different story. Putonghua, or Mandarin, is the universal language understood by all educated Chinese. But there are thousands of different dialects in China. The differences in these dialects sometimes are more than two different languages. For "How Are You?", a Beijinger will say, "Ni Hao", while a Guangzhouer will say "Lei Ho". If you are especially linguistically endowed, you can always pick up a few words in dialects but do remember, never try your Shanghai dialect in front of a Beijinger in Beijing.

China once was conquered by the Mongols but in time Mongols became Chinese; therefore, the Yuan Dynasty. China was once conquered by Manchus but in time Manchus became Chinese; therefore, the Qing Dynasty. The Jewish are famous for their resilience to other cultures' influence and for having strong bonds among themselves but you go to Kaifeng today, where once a large Jewish community existed, you will only find some Jewish physical features still remain on local people's faces. The British were the first to open the China market by gun boats in the Opium War (1840) but they didn't make a fortune selling knives and forks. Instead, more and more Westerners can handle chopsticks.

Most Chinese are not religious. They are, however, quite superstitious though they will deny this. But you don't give a clock as a gift to a Chinese because the word clock in Chinese is pronounced Zhong, the sound that applies to the meaning of "death". Four is not a lucky number, as it also sounds like "death". Eight is a good number in south China because, in local dialect, it sounds like "prosper".

Chinese love dining and drinking. If you are working with Chinese Mongolians or some other ethnic Chinese party, drinking is almost mandatory - it is a demonstration of hospitality and sincerity and you are expected to enjoy the warmth that the 120 proof liquor will bring to your heart. If you can't drink, make up reasons beforehand--say you have doctor's order against any drinking. Tell your local Chinese translator. Usually he/she will be your best and personal protector. If you do drink some, in spite of "doctor's order", you give immense face to your host. If you really can't drink, you should still raise your cup during the toast, put the cup to your lip, making a gesture. Give a Chinese a pear and he will give you back a peach. If he doesn't have a peach readily available, he will remember it and returning you the peach will become of his life's goal.

A Chinese friend is the best friend you can ever have in your life. The culture has it that a true friend will "put knives in both sides of his chest" when it is needed. Confucius' philosophy is that Yi, or friendship/camaraderie is higher than any other relationship.

Chinese don't show emotion easily. They rarely "burst into laughter". A joke that will bring down the house in the West may only get a cordial chuckle out of Chinese. But when your host one day, gives out a hearty laugh with you, you know you are getting a friend.

Foreigners show their anger but Chinese remember the humiliation. Chinese may know more about your culture than you know about theirs. Chinese know Mickey Mouse and McDonald's but do you know Monkey King or Long Hua Chicken Don't believe in Chinese movies that win Cannes or other international movie awards. If real life is depicted in those movies, they will not win awards. And if they do win awards, there will surely be no Chinese audience. So far, there has yet to be seen, a Chinese movie transforming real life into art.

When you go to rural areas where people see few foreigners, you will attract attention. Don't assume they think as you think. They are wondering why your eyes are blue, your nose is big and then, why you are wearing such outlandish clothing or such serious suits. They will wonder how Polaroid can give you immediate pictures. They are not wondering what it would be like if they were in your shoes.

Chinese society gives ultimate respect to their elders. A young foreign executive will probably have to learn how to respect his older Chinese counterpart and demonstrate it in a sincere manner. Such respect will flatter the Chinese as he knows you are probably smarter than he is, yet you give him so much face. This paves the way to the contract table.

Chinese women usually do not take key business positions but if your negotiation counterpart is a woman, do demonstrate special respect. She deserves it and she will let you know. She has to be exceptionally outstanding to make it to that position among all the men contenders.

Children are treasured in China. They are the modern day emperors and empresses especially as most families have only one child. Proverb has it that all parents expect their sons and daughters to be "Dragons and Phoenixes" so they will glorify the family. The subject of children is the best starting point for you to get familiar with your host but don't ask in your first meeting.

Don't ask when 12 other people are present. When you do ask about children, always start with your own kids, or your friends' kids. With kids' talk, you get to the inside of the circle.

Chinese pay attention to the quality in products and will pay top dollar for it. Chinese newspapers have again and again reported the strict food processing procedures carried out in Kentucky Fried Chicken stores. Therefore, KFC ranks among the best and busiest food outlets in Shanghai.

Chinese recognize that many of the ways foreigners do things are better than their own but they will not openly say it. Once they are exposed to such ways, they will pick them up smoothly. That is why there is the report that the overall quality level of the workers in Motorola's Tianjin Plant is even higher than in the states. Chinese say, "when you are a piece of white page, you can color it whatever way you want."

Chinese are usually single purpose minded. If need be, they will sit all day long to split a hair into a hundred strands. When you visit a silk embroidery factory, you will see that with your own eyes.

Chinese will not open a gift in front of the giver, but only in private. Therefore, don't insist on Chinese opening the gift in front of you or others. This way, if he doesn't like your gift, both he and you will not be embarrassed.

A Chinese may not be offended if you pronounce his name wrong but he will feel your effort if you do try to say it right. The most frequent mistake English speaking people make is reading ANG as aen as in bang, instead of ah-n, or ong. Zhang is the number one Chinese surname, probably totaling 200 million. There are also Dangs, Fangs, Tangs, Yangs and Wangs totaling another 100 million. If you read these 4 characters wrong, you are not making 400 million people happy.

China Briefing



China is one of the biggest countries in the world. It has an area of about 9.6 million square kilometers which comprises about 6.5 per cent of the world total land area. Its population of more than one billion accounts for 23 per cent of the world's population. China is the world's oldest continuous civilization. World Travel Organization predicts that by year 2020, China will become the number one travel destination in the world.

China is situated in the eastern part of Asia on the west coast of the Pacific Ocean. It is the third largest country in the world (after Canada and Russia). The distance from east to west measures over 5,200 kilometers and from north to south, over 5,500 kilometers. When the sun shines brightly over the Wusuli River in the east, the Pamire Plateau in the west is in the very early morning. When blizzards wrap the north along the Heilongjiang River in the winter, spring sowing is underway on Hainan Island in the south.

China has a land border of 22,143.34 kilometers long and is bordered by twelve countries: Korea in the east; Russian in the northeast and the northwest; Mongolia in the north; India, Pakistan, Bhutan and Nepal in part of the west and southwest; Burma, Laos and Vietnam in the south.

Beside a vast land area, there are also extensive neighboring seas and numerous islands. The coastline extends more than 14,500 kilometers. Across the East China Sea to the east and South China Sea to the southeast are Japan, the Philippines, Malaysia, and Indonesia. More than 5,000 islands are scattered over China's vast territorial seas; the largest being Taiwan and the second largest, Hainan. One territorial sea and three neighboring seas altogether constitute 4.73 million square kilometers.

我们的大三

        静静的听着歌, 是莫文蔚的<<他不爱我>>,好久没写东西了,现在想静静的听着这歌记录下我们的大三时代,这是我喜欢的状态.

  还记的自己在大二的时候,总是希望大三的到来,因为到了大三,听学长们说大三会过的快一些,而且专业课也不会太多,有很多的时间做自己想做的事,我们希望大三的到来,还因为大三了,我们离毕业也就快了,对于我这样喜欢工作,喜欢飘的人来说,或许早些毕业,早些进入社会工作是我的解脱.只是,当大三真的来了的时候,让我们有一些害怕,因为,大三了,意味着我们的学生时代也就快结束了,这是怎样的心情了?期望与惶恐,甚至有一些害怕,害怕大学时代就这样像水一样一点点的流失了去.而现在,真正的到了大三,而且,还是大三下了,又会是一个不一样的心情,功课还是一样的多,忙起来还是像大二,大一时的样子,只不过,用我们的话来说,我们堕落了许多:每天早上不到8点不会起来,总是习惯了迟到五分钟或是更多,总是习惯了早上起晚就不吃早点,还习惯了上课睡觉,有时候,当老师讲的不好时,让我们没有听课的欲望时,我们会大胆的睡觉,对于我们这群大三的人来说,好像上课不认真听讲是一件正常的事;而对于那些早上能起的很早的同学,我们常说一句:SB才起的那么早……可事实上了?我们心中会有些羡慕他们,至少我们失去了早上能早起的勇气或是习惯;很多时候,我们会怀念大一时能准时上课,或是提前半小时去教室读英语的样子,那时候的我们真的很勤奋;因为现在,作为大三的我们,已经找不到了当初的勇敢.现在我们习惯了晚睡,习惯了天天晚上午夜之后还在打CS,而不管第二天能不能起的来;习惯了晚上要吃点夜宵什么的才能睡的安稳;更多时候,我们很麻木,或者是说我们习惯了现在的自己,有时候我们也想在生活上作一些改变,但是,可悲的是:我们好像没有了原动力,还有那决心已经找不到了;生活好像没有了好习惯,现在的我们,早上起来第一句话说的最多的是:今天一二节有没有课?现在几点了?等等.好像对我们来说,早起是一件痛苦的事情…….

       我们的大三,有迷失,有空虚,有成熟,有堕落,看着大四学长们找工作时很辛苦却无功而返的样子,想着自己的未来,仿佛看到了自己大四找工作时一样无助的样子,对于大三的我们,没有大四时候的目标明确,也没有大四同学的成熟;有人说,我们的大三是迷茫的大三,因为现在的我们还不能了解自己的未来,但同时,现实又不会让我们迷失去,毕竟还有一年不到我们就要毕业了,以后的我们将走向哪里?是考研,是考公务员,或是工作?还是……现在的我们面临着很多的选择,晚上的卧谈会的重心由以前的:女生.爱情.性转变为工作.未来.家庭.还有找一个好老婆……有时我们还是会像以前一样高谈阔论,只是更多的时候,我们都会回避谈未来,谈爱情,我们好像有些麻木,有些满足,又或像是大家想抓住这最后的学生时代,好好享受这没有负担的学生日子.

      我们的大三,没有大四同学们的成熟,没有了大一时候的朝气,没有大二时候的努力,我们有些麻木,有些迷失,有些堕落,不过,好在我们还有理想,我们仍旧在为未来努力奋斗;是的,大三了,是应好好想想自己以后的路了,毕竟我们不是小孩子了,对于未来,虽然我们不是那么清楚自己的路,但是,我们已经知道了自己的路在远方;大三了,我们长大了,我们会一路走好的.
