马克思说人们因为差异才会斗争,差异越大冲突就越大。在企业里,时刻都在竞争,竞争是必不可少的,能够让人快速成长,但是不要只关注竞争本身而忽略了真正重要的事情。书中提到哈姆雷特的观点:真正的英雄把他们的个人荣誉看得更重要,即使事情不重要,他们也会一争到底。这个观点用在职场上是致命的,Peter Thiel给我们的忠告是,如果我们不能逃离竞争,不能将对手打败,那么就和对手联合。“没有永远的朋友,也没有永远的敌人”嘛。但他也指出了这个建议是非常难以做到的,因为我们往往放不下个人无谓的自尊和荣誉感。
Many people simply regard Pride and Prejudice as a love story, but in my opinion, this book is an illustration of the society at that time. She perfectly reflected the relation between money and marriage at her time and gave the people in her works vivid characters. The characters have their own personalities. Mrs. Bennet is a woman who makes great efforts to marry off her daughters. Mr. Bingley is a friendly young man, but his friend, Mr. Darcy, is a very proud man who seems to always feel superior. Even the five daughters in Bennet family are very different. Jane is simple, innocent and never speaks evil of others. Elizabeth is a clever girl who always has her own opinion. Mary likes reading classic books. (Actually she is a pedant. Kitty doesn’t have her own opinion but likes to follow her sister, Lydia. Lydia is a girl who follows exotic things, handsome man, and is somehow a little profligate. When I read the book, I can always find the same personalities in the society now. That is why I think this book is indeed the representative of the society in Britain in the 18th century.
The family of gentleman in the countryside is Jane Austen’s favourite topic. But this little topic can reflect big problems. It concludes the stratum situation and economic relationships in Britain in her century. You can find these from the very beginning of this book.
The first sentence in this book is impressive. It reads: “It is a truth well known to all the world that an unmarried man in poss ession of a large fortune must be in need of a wife”. The undertone is very clear: the foundation of the marriage at that time is not emotion but possession.
People always think that Austen was an expert at telling love stories. In fact, the marriage in her book is not the result of love, but the result of economic needs. After reading this book, I know the truth is that a poor woman must be in need of a husband, a wealthy man.
I couldn’t forget how eager Mrs. Bennet wants to marry off her daughte rs. If you want to know why she is so crazy about these things, I must mention the situation in Britain at that time. Only the eldest son had the privilege of inheriting his father’s possessions. Younger sons and daughters who are used to luxurious lives have no choice but marry a man or woman in possession of a large fortune to continue their comfortable lives. Thus, we can see that getting married is a way to become wealthier, particularly for women without many possessions. Jane Austen told us that money and possession determined everything, including marriage and love in her century.
In “Pride and Prejudice”, the sister of Mr. Bingley strongly opposed his plan of marrying Jane because the Bennets don’t have many possessions and their social positions are much lower than them. From this, we can see there are a lot of obstacles for a not very rich woman to marry a wealthy husband. The society, the relatives would not allow them to get married.
In modern society, although the marriages of economic needs have decreased rapidly, the concept of “money determines everything” is still rooted in some people’s mind. A lot of parents try hard to interfere their children’s marriages. Education background, possessions, jobs remains the main reason that may influence one’s marriage. Marry for money is still a big problem in our
society. We can’t help thinking: can money determine everything?
Austen left this problem for us to think. The genius of Jane Austen lies in this perfect simplicity, the simplicity that reflects big problems. Although Austen was only 21 when she wrote “Pride and Prejudice”, her sharp observation of social lives makes the style of this book surprisingly mature and lively. The plots in her works are always very natural. The development of the plot is as inevitable as a problem in mathematics. I think the depth of Pride and Prejudice is the reason that makes this book prominent and classic. Today, her book still can be the guide telling us the economic relationships both at her time and in modern time.
彼得蒂尔在书中也提到了机器与人关系的思考,从一个全新的角度思考,对我的启发很大。科技是人类的补充,不是替代人类。当AlphaGo击败柯洁时,是人类的胜利。当人类发明汽车后,人类和汽车赛跑便不太可能胜利,人工智能同样如此,科技将更好的为人类服务。简单地从需求分析,人类需要的是漂亮的房子、美食等,而机器的需求绝不是这些,机器的需求是电,这就意味机器或人工智能并不向人类争夺资源,更不会取代人类住别墅和香槟。
聪明的计算机,是敌是友?人工智能究竟能不能成为真正能思考的智能,这是22世纪人类应该思考的问题。对遥远未来的不确定性,不应该影响我们制定当下发展的计划。
作者提出反主流的观点,垄断并非坏事;充分的市场竞争,长远看没有公司会获得经济利益。美国各航空公司经过激烈的市场竞争,每卖一张票平均只有18美分的利润。垄断会带来巨额的财富,支持产品的研发与改进。Google被视为全球互联网公司,其垄断的搜索业务带来的巨大广告费收益。Google母公司Alphabet则去寻求其他营收的突破口。
这里举一个例子,为什么垄断者不会抵制创新,Google作为搜索的垄断者依然去寻求新的市场。垄断企业是不断更换的一个过程,从上世纪70年代的IBM垄断硬件,到后来微软取代了IBM垄断了操作系统,到后来iOS/Android又将微软的霸主地位推了下去。垄断的利润,给了企业规划未来的资本。
垄断并不是商界的症结,而是成功企业的写照。
看似是一本鸡汤,却讲的头头是道,虽然有些逻辑无法赞同,但大部分逻辑是认可的。
这不仅仅是一本商业的书,更是一本启迪人生的良药,之前我一直搞不清楚逻辑与情感的关系,虽然始终没有给出答案,但是现在我认为:EQ其实是人类目前还无法掌握的一种高精度、高精细化、好运作的逻辑思维能力,就像目前还无法为计算机找到情感算法的程序一样赋予计算机人类的感情一样,目前只知道我们有这种能力,却无法控制的很好,不知道其根源在哪里!另一方面,绿色能源是未来的发展趋势,从书中所谈与自身的思考都无与厚非。但我觉得书中还缺少一种商业模式,那就是海底捞的人性化管理。启迪人生的书啊,从今天起我做了一个决定,等我读完一百本能够像“从0到1”这样的好书的时候,我就去创业。
至于创业的模式是什么,我会不会在读到第二本或者第九十九本的时候就去创业,这是个秘密,或者说我会不会只是说说,也是个秘密,但至少一件事情可以肯定,当这一百本书都读完之后,在未来的某一天,看到现在的我,看到现在的书评,会感觉很好笑,很傻很天真。
买这本书时是在20xx年,当时各种大佬推荐火得不行,也算是跟上潮流。那个时候刚走出校园,满腔热血,刚好又听到雷军那句话“站在风口上,猪都能飞起来”,结合自身专业,选择了一家做O2O的医药平台,期待自己这头笨猪有一天也能在天空翱翔,可能因为太重了最后也没飞起来。这本书就是当时的老板推荐读的,看了一遍也似懂非懂,于是就扔在一边,算了一下时间都快过去三年了,当它再一次被推荐,读起来好像有一点不一样的感受。
这本书的作者是PayPal的创始人之一彼得.蒂尔,他的“从0到1”到底是什么意思?它是指如果要做企业,那么需要从事的应该是开创性的产业,而非同质化当前的商业模式。关于做企业,我们大多数人都没做过,但是做员工每个人都做过,所以我想从怎么做员工的角度来谈谈读这本书后我的感受。
“垄断”一词,在人们的意识中,除了强大之外,更多的还是贬义的味道,然而,在商业世界中,从某种意义上来说,若想成功,还必须建立“垄断”,正如作者在《从0到1》中所说的“为企业建立垄断,竞争留给失败者”。其实,细思之下,人身何尝不是如此呢?那么,我们又该如何为自己建立“垄断”优势呢?
“诚”是做人的第一要义,再怎么强调都不为过。“诚”要求我们对别人要坦诚相待、诚实守信。一个人如果没有“诚”,终将一事无成,不要以为你能骗了所有人,其实到头来不过是所有人骗了你而已。从小父母、老师就教育我们做人要诚实,不能撒谎,所以才有了“狼来了”的故事。现在,国家也在大力倡导诚信体系建设,失信黑名单、限制高消费、发布“老赖”信息等措施,从根本上说都是希望全社会能做到一个“诚”字。芝麻信用分、银行征信系统、个人诚信档案等也都是通过制度建设促使人们能珍惜自身的信誉,以诚为本。晚清著名中兴名臣李鸿章,非常喜欢睡懒觉,他在给曾国藩做幕僚时的一天早上,为了多睡会觉,就谎称说受了风寒,曾国藩当然没批准李鸿章的“病假”请求,但也只对李鸿章说了一句话——少荃,你既在我处,就要守一个“诚”字。出人意料的是,就这么平淡无奇的一句话,却改变了李鸿章的一生,从此,李鸿章再没睡过一天懒觉,经过数十年的努力,终成晚清四大中兴名臣之一。从李鸿章的这件事中可以看出,“诚”不仅是对待他人时的要求,更是我们对待自己时的要求。我们在欺骗他人时,不仅是在骗别人,更是在骗自己,所以我们才要不忘初心,只有不忘初心,才能时刻提醒自己,要以诚待人、以诚待己。无论是国家、企业还是个人,若要成功,无不“诚”字当先,古今中外,概莫能外。
“专”要求我们在认定目标后,务必要有不达目的誓不罢休的决心,要有持之以恒、咬定青山不放松的毅力。唐僧之所以能西天取经成功,除了有四个徒弟保护外,最重要的就是他有坚定的信念和为取真经愿意付出一切的执着。对我们现代人来说,要不忘初心,始终为了自己的目标努力更为不易,因为我们有太多的诱惑,太多的干扰,若想实现目标,就需要我们有更为决绝的心态。佛家说“舍得舍得”,有“舍”才有“得”,先“舍”后有“得”,所以,我们若想有所“得”,务必要先学会“舍”,怎么“舍”,对我们来说,就是要学会做“减法”,跟实现自身目标无关的事都不要去做。马云、马化腾、丁磊、蔡崇信等商界名流,无不是放弃了当时人们认为的大好前程,为了实现自己的人身目标,投身到
“新”就是要创新,就是要从0到1,从无到有。无论是对一个国家、一个民族、一个企业还是一个人,创新都不可或缺。但从整个人类历史来看,创新都从未像今天这样被重视、被提倡、被鼓励。“中兴事件”给我们每一个
成功从来都不是偶然的,一切成功都有因——诚、专、新,也可以说,一切成功都是这些“因”产生的“果”。从0到1,从无到有,从“诚、专、新”开始,不忘初心,坚定信念,成功自来。
