Wandering how to plan your life? Let’s learn it from one the biggest e-commerce magnates, Jack Ma, whom Forbes entitles as the “King of Chinese E-Commerce”. Jack Ma—the founder of China’s largest internet company and online shopping websites, which easily do more business than Amazon. Plus, like Google, if you need anything, just search it on one of his Alibaba portal websites, and bingo!
Jack Ma, a person who led his rejected start-up vision from a small apartment to pen historic Initial Public Offering at New York Stock Exchange (largest in US history), sure knows a thing or two about leading our lives. So, let’s hear it in Jack Ma’s simple words!
20s: LEARN
- Just be a good student.
- Strive to learn to your max.
30s: GEAR UP
- Seek and follow a good boss or mentor.
- Start a small start-up.
- Learn to do a lot of things in short span of time.
40s: WORK
- Work for ‘yourself’.
- Polish, cherish, and if necessary, redefine your vision.
50s: EXPERTISE
- Only do your expertise.
- Don’t try to change the game plan.
60s: LEAD
- Focus on young people.
- Work should be to guide, coach, train, and lead the new ‘brains’.
- Believe in the fact that, young generation knows more and can do better.
60s++: ‘THYSELF’
- Spend time for and with yourself.
I just love how simple and apt is his vision. It’s true that life is meant to be formulated against the schema of minimalism. I hope we also can implement some, if not all, important chunks from his advice.
Until next time,
Live. Simple.
