How to be a big fish

Every French soldier carries a marshal's baton in his knapsack.——Napoléon I
Everyone in our era wants to be a great man. However, only a few people take actions. It’s the best time to change the current situation for you.
Following The Trail of Big Man.
About four years ago, I followed Luo Zhenyu and his official?WeChat account LuoJiSiWei. I listen the voice of Luo every early morning, read the essay everyday, watch the video every week, and the lively speech every New Year’s Eve.
Then he created the GetIt, which is an App providing knowledge service. Everyday I learn the free knowledge news, and the columns, which is paid 199 RMB annually.
Paying Close Attention to The Views of Big Shots, Focusing on Their Articles And Books.
Dr. Wu Jun, a computer scientist, writes a column Letters from Silicon Valley for GetIt. I bought his column, his books Roads towards Universities, Civilizations and Enlightenments, and On Top of Tides. Furthermore, I followed his micro-blog account.
People who never stop improving themselves will have a bigger chance to meet the same companion.
Closing to The Big Fish.
Although we are not friends, I’m in the same WeChat group with Li Xiaolai, who is a figure among us. I wrote my comments in the column Roads towards Fortune Freedom everyday, while they are collected occasionally. On May 6th, I sat in the first row in the class in Shanghai. It was less 5 meters between Mr. Li and me.
To Be A Helpful Man for The Big Shot.
Li Jinma, a programmer, who produced the application Laidu.com, which is searching information from officalWeChat accounts, articals, and books.Finally, he was invited to join Li xiaolai’s team.
Take The Initiative Link to The Big Man.
Qin Jie created the event of 007 Mission. He not only wrote his comments for the column Roads towards Fortune Freedom everyday, but increased the member of event. Finally, Li Xiaolai added contacts with Qin Jie through the WeChat group initiatively.
Set Realistic Goals.
In any case, you should be warned that attempts to be a fat man through eating in one time are unlikely to succeed. Last April, I ran 6-7 kilometers everyday. My knee-joint began to ache soon. And then, I executed a plan in Codoon strictly. Four months later, I finished my first half-marathon.
Have Hopes in Your Heart.
Eventually, after trying today, we would be better tomorrow, in the hope of being a big fish. At the end of last February, I began reading English books, while finished eight books and a half until the end of the year. From this New Year’s day, I learned the lesson Using English Everyday. Preparing one essay one day, and listening the explanation about one hour in night.
Now, I don't fear the long English essay again, and?have the courage to write them in English.
如何成為牛人

人人都想成為牛人。然而，只有為數(shù)不多的人真正開始了行動。對你我來說，這是脫穎而出的最好時機。
追蹤牛人的足跡。四五年前，我得知了羅振宇及他的微信公眾號《羅輯思維》。從此，每天的60秒語音及一篇文章，每周一期的視頻節(jié)目，最近兩年的跨年演講會，我一個都沒有錯過。去年，他與人聯(lián)合創(chuàng)辦了得到，我開始聽免費的知識新聞，看付費的專欄文章。
學習牛人的言論，看牛人的文章、書籍。吳軍博士是一個計算機科學家，曾任騰訊副總裁，當前Google中日韓文搜索算法的主要設(shè)計者，他著的《大學之路》、《浪潮之巔》、《文明之光》我都買了（暫未看完）。吳軍老師在得到開設(shè)的專欄《硅谷來信》，是我每天必聽（看）的專欄之一。
盡一切可能接近牛人。信息上接近，我加入到了李笑來所在的微信群，在他的得到專欄《通往財富自由之路》里持續(xù)留言，偶爾會被精選出來。物理上接近，5月6日，我參加了上海的線下課程，坐在第一排，距離笑來老師不到5米。
讓自己成為一個對牛人有用的人。李金馬是一個程序員，通過做笑來搜、來讀，將笑來老師的書籍、公眾號及其他文章整合起來，方便查詢資料，被邀請加入李笑來老師的團隊。
主動與牛人產(chǎn)生鏈接，持續(xù)地去做。覃杰發(fā)起“007行動?不寫就出局”活動，持續(xù)在專欄《通往財富自由之路》留言，并通過公眾號文章宣傳，通過其他人向笑來老師轉(zhuǎn)達自己的offer。前幾天，李笑來老師在微信群里主動申請?zhí)砑玉転槲⑿藕糜选?/p>
給自己制定切合實際的期望值。一口氣吃不了個胖子，切忌一開始用力過猛。去年4月份，每天跑步6-7公里，很快膝關(guān)節(jié)開始疼痛。后來，按照咕咚上的4個月半程馬拉松訓練計劃，循序漸進，在9月初跑出了第一個半程馬拉松。
對自己充滿希望。相信明天的自己，可以通過今天的努力變得更好。去年2月底開始閱讀英文原版書，截止去年底共讀8本半。今年元旦開始學習“天天用英語”，每天預習1篇文章，聽1個小時講解?，F(xiàn)在，我已經(jīng)不再懼怕長篇英文文章了，也敢于寫出自己的英文文章了。
通過持續(xù)跑步、專欄留言、寫文章、學英語，在一些網(wǎng)友眼中，我也成了“牛人”。但我知道，我還差得遠呢。不過，我已經(jīng)走在前進的路上了。你呢，愿意一起來嗎？
