When making choices about what to do, it is essential to lean towards tasks that are easy and effortless. Once you perceive that a certain task feels quite forced, try to set it aside as much as possible, and consider it again when your own abilities are stronger.

For example, when you have a capital of one hundred million, it is advisable to only engage in projects that require an investment of thirty million, leaving ample room for redundancy. Perhaps a task that was originally expected to be completed with thirty million may ultimately cost fifty million, but because sufficient financial reserves have been reserved, these situations often can be successfully achieved.

From a strategic perspective, the core lies in creating a situation where many overcome few, and the strong suppress the weak. Using one hundred million to operate a thirty million project is like ten people opposing three; the probability of success is extremely high, and good results can be achieved effortlessly.

If you use one hundred million to do something that exactly requires one hundred million, both sides are nearly equal in strength, and at this point, the success of the task relies on luck, requiring the perfect combination of timing, location, and harmony among people to succeed, with many uncontrollable factors in the outcome.

If you take one hundred million to challenge something that requires one hundred and fifty million, it is like ten people facing fifteen; even before the confrontation, the likelihood of failure is already high. If any slight unfavorable change occurs during the process, failure is inevitable.

Life choices are like this, and the investment field follows the same principle. Do not excessively borrow and leverage; do not engage in matters beyond your own capabilities and resources.

Always stick to doing those simple, non-forced tasks that are guaranteed to succeed. If something feels forced, do not pursue it at that moment; after all, in such cases, not only is the process painful, but the probability of failure is also extremely high. It is better to patiently wait until your own strength is sufficient to easily crush the task before completing it. In short, anything that requires us to feel forced to achieve should not be pursued.
