Different mentality, different destiny.

Two people from their rural areas are going out to work. One plans to go to Shanghai, one to decide to go to Beijing. But in the waiting room waiting for the time, each changed their minds, because they also heard the person sitting next to say: Shanghai people shrewd, outsiders ask the road are charged. Beijing people simple, see eat rice people, not only to steamed bread, but also send old clothes.

So the people who want to go to Shanghai think: or Beijing good, earn money also hungry not to die, thanks to the car did not, or will really fall into the fire pit.

And the people who intend to go to Beijing think: or Shanghai good, give people the way can make money, and what can not make money? I'm glad I haven't got on the bus. Or really lose a chance to get rich.

Then they met again at the refund office. The original to go to Beijing to get the tickets to Shanghai, to Shanghai got tickets to Beijing.

The man who went to Beijing found that Beijing was good indeed. He had not done anything for one months when he first arrived in Beijing, and he was not hungry. Not only is the space water in the bank's hall a white drink, but a snack is also available in the big shopping malls where you can enjoy it.

The man who went to Shanghai found that Shanghai was a city where people could make a fortune. Do whatever you can to make money. Lead the way can make money, open the toilet can make money, make pots of cold water let people wash face can make money. If you want to do something, you can make money by spending a little more effort.

With the rural people's feelings and understanding of the soil, the next day, he installed 10 on the construction site containing sand and leaves of the soil, in the name of "flower pot soil", to the people who do not see the earth and love flowers to sell to Shanghai. The day he was in the suburbs between six times, net earned 50 yuan. A year later, with "flower pot soil", he unexpectedly in the big Shanghai has a small façade.

In the perennial streets, he has a new discovery: Some of the shop floor although bright and the signboard is relatively black, only to know that the cleaning company is responsible for washing the floor is not responsible for washing the signboard results. He immediately seized the empty, bought a man-made ladder, buckets and rags, to run a small cleaning company, specifically responsible for scrubbing signs. Now his company has more than 150 wage earners, and the business has been developed from Shanghai to Hangzhou and Nanjing.

Not long ago, he took the train to Beijing to study the cleaning market. At the Beijing station, a scavenger man stuck his head into a soft sleeper compartment and asked him for an empty beer bottle, and two of them were stunned when they handed the bottle, because five years ago, they had changed tickets.

Perhaps some people will think this story is ridiculous, but my heart feels sour. The same people from the countryside, but because of the different ideas of life, the gap between them is actually so big. One is the use of local characteristics, to earn reasonable money, and thus completely changed their own destiny. And the other one? Obviously, he is a little greedy for the negative to settle down, and neglect the spirit of positive and enterprising. Of course, scavenger is also a way of earning a living, but the difference is too big for two relative.

Different mentality, different destiny.
