Dial your own clock


There are many things that people regret in life, but there are two things I can't forgive myself until now: one is to be filial and not to be loyal, and the other is not to study hard when I was young.

There is an entrepreneur who is busy with socializing all the time. The business is full of enthusiasm, and he is very happy. He has no big time to accompany his elderly parents. When the parents died, he came to the grave of his parents. Suddenly he thought of the joy of childhood and the love of his growing parents. He thought that although he was rich, he didn’t even spend time with his parents. Before his parents died, he I can't see them on the last side and say the last sentence. He is very sad and guilty, and the soul is often tormented in the depths. How much he hopes that time can go back, even if he is last seen for ten minutes with his parents.

After graduating from college, a young man came to an ideal big business. He thought that the iron rice bowl had been fixed since then and gave up several opportunities for further study. The good times didn't last long. The big business said that it would go bankrupt when it went bankrupt. He had to take an insignificant undergraduate diploma to find a job. Although he would have some English and text, he was not as proficient. The talent market recruits a lot of people, but they all have a top-notch specialty. He regrets it and the opportunity is greatly lost in front of him. He blames himself: when the book is used, it hates less. If you can have a sense of urgency and have earlier preparations, he may have succeeded in finding a better job.

Think of Li Ka-shing. He lost his father in his childhood, and his uncle loved him very much. In order to let him go to work on time, my uncle bought an alarm clock for him. He adjusted the alarm clock for ten minutes so that the first one could get to work in the restaurant. The owner of the tea house was deeply impressed by his habits, so Li Ka-shing became the fastest-paid employee in the restaurant. His habit of dialing the alarm clock for ten minutes has been maintained for more than 50 years. Even now, Li Ka-shing’s watch is still adjusted for ten minutes. This habit has become a beautiful talk of the Hong Kong business community.

Putting the clock for ten minutes is not only cultivating people's sense of time, but also cultivating people's responsibility and sense of urgency.

Everyone has to dial their own clock in their hearts. This is an inconspicuous detail, but it has brewed the greatest success. The children dial the clock of their own school, the young graduates dial the fast-charging clock, the family and the men and women dial the clock to honour the parents, the responsible parents dial the clock to raise the children, the true love lover dials the emotional clock... Adjust quickly, don't underestimate even ten minutes, these ten minutes will bring you unexpected good luck, perhaps by the teacher's praise, perhaps by the boss's appreciation, perhaps let you calmly, perhaps let you never regret.
