Nikola Tesla visited Henry Ford at his factory, which was having some kind of difficulty. Ford asked Tesla if he could help identify the problem area. Tesla walked up to a wall of boilerplate and made a small X in chalk on one of the plates. Ford was thrilled, and told him to send an invoice.

The bill arrived, for $10,000. Ford asked for a breakdown. Tesla sent another invoice, indicating a $1 charge for marking the wall with an X, and $9,999 for knowing where to put it.

 

很多事情你只要努力付出了,没功劳也有苦劳,勤奋会有个基本的收益保障。但投资这行既残酷又简单的特征在于,从来不问你付出了多少,而只看你对不对。这种类别的工作,努力是第二位的,第一位是正确的价值观和方法论。否则,方向不对,越勤奋越坎坷,越痴迷越疯魔。-  水晶苍蝇拍
