Flexibility is an important capital to get rich

Make full use of all favorable conditions to realize your full potential.

--"Talmud"

 Housing in Israel was so tight that several German-Jewish businessmen had to use a disused railway carriage as temporary housing.One night, the Jewish businessmen were shivering in their pajamas, pushing the carriage back and forth in the cold wind.A local Jew asked in confusion: "What are you doing?" "Because someone needs to go to the toilet," the pusher patiently explained, "There is a sign in the carriage: It is forbidden to use the toilet while parking. That's why we kept pushing car."

Some people may think that these Jews are too pedantic and do not know how to be flexible, but from another perspective, it is not difficult to find the flexible ability of Jewish businessmen: to abide by the regulations in form, but at the same time not really change their original activity mode.These few Jews living in the train carriages are just like the Jews living in the society of other nations for a long time.This regulation was formulated by the railway department. These Jews have no legislative power, and naturally they do not have the power to abolish a certain law.To be honest, Jews in their respective countries often have to face such laws or customary rules that should have been abolished naturally but still play a "function". The regulations cannot be abolished, but it is reasonable to use the toilet. The clever Jewish businessman came up with the idea of ​​"moving" the train.

Being good at using everything is a distinctive feature of the Jewish nation.Due to historical reasons, the environment and conditions of the Jews are very different, but no matter in Europe, America, Asia or even Africa, whether they are engaged in business, science and technology, culture, art or even agriculture, there will always be a large number of successful leaders. .One of the most important reasons is that they can adapt to the environment, make full use of all favorable conditions, and give full play to their potential.

In the mid-19th century, a British Jew named James Goldsmith borrowed some money from his brother to start a small pharmaceutical factory.He personally organizes production and sales in the factory and works 18 hours a day.A few years later, his pharmaceutical factory has grown to a certain scale, making hundreds of thousands of dollars in profit every year.However, after market research and analysis, the sensitive James felt that the prospect of drug development was not great at that time, while the food market had a bright future.

After careful consideration, he resolutely sold his pharmaceutical factory, borrowed money from the bank, and bought the controlling stake in "Jiayun Food Company".

This company specializes in the manufacture of candies, biscuits and various snacks.Its scale is small, but there are many business categories.After James took control of the company, he carried out some reforms in operation management and marketing strategy.

He first extended the specifications and styles of the products, such as extending the candy to chocolate, chewing gum and other varieties; in addition to increasing the variety of biscuits, subdividing children, adults, and elderly biscuits, he also expanded to cakes, egg rolls, etc. develop.In this way, the company's sales increased rapidly.Next, James worked hard in the market field. In addition to operating in Paris, France, he also set up branches in other cities, and later opened branches in many European countries, forming a broad chain sales network.With the increase of business, the capital became stronger, and James adapted to the situation and acquired some food companies in the United Kingdom and the Netherlands, forming a large group and gaining fame. Twenty years later, his food chain has reached 20, becoming the largest food company in Britain, and James himself has become one of the 2500 super rich people in the world.

There will always be many roads that don't work in life. At this time, you should consider the problem from a different angle and seize the opportunity again.At every critical moment in life, we must use wisdom prudently, make the most correct judgment, and choose the right direction. At the same time, don't forget to check the angle of choice in time and adjust it in due course.
