Give me an inspiring article.

The story of the taxi driver is very useful.

I had to get to the airport from Xujiahui, so I ended a meeting in a hurry and found a taxi in front of Luomei Building. A Volkswagen found me and stopped in front of me professionally and directly. After this stop, a story deeply shocked me, just like a vivid MBA case class. In order to be faithful to the taxi driver's original intention, I tried to repeat his original words from memory.

"Where to ... well, the airport. I like to do the business of Luomei Building in Xujiahui. I only do two places here. Luomei Building, Juneyao Building. Do you know that?/You know what? Do you know that?/You know what? Before I met you, I walked around the entrance of Luomei Building twice, and finally I met you! Out of the office building, certainly not near ~ ~ ~ "

"oh? You have many ways! " I echoed it.

"To be a taxi driver, we must also use scientific methods." He said. I was stunned and suddenly said to "What scientific method?"

"To understand statistics. I have made an accurate calculation. Let me tell you something. I drive 17 hours a day, and the hourly fee is 34.5 yuan ... "

"How did you come up with it?" I asked.

"You calculate, I have to pay 380 yuan every day, and the fuel cost is about 2 10 yuan. One day 17 hour, average hourly fixed cost 22 yuan, paid to the company, average hourly fuel cost 12.5 yuan. Is this 34.5 yuan? " I'm a little surprised. I've been driving for 10 years, and this is the first time I've heard a taxi driver calculate the fare like this. My former driver told me that the cost per kilometer was 0.3 yuan, and how much was it every day.

"The cost cannot be calculated in kilometers, only in time. You see, the instrument has the function of "checking". You can see the detailed records of the day. I have done data analysis, and the average idle driving time between passengers is 7 minutes. If the starting price is 10 yuan, it will take about 10 minutes. In other words, it takes each guest 10 yuan 17 minutes, which is 9.8 yuan. No money! If guests in Pudong, Hangzhou and Qingpu are eating, guests who earn 10 yuan don't even eat, but only sprinkle some monosodium glutamate. "

Be strong! This master really doesn't sound like a taxi driver, but more like a cost accountant. "Then what will you do?" I'm more interested. Keep asking. It seems that you can learn something new on the way to the airport.

"Don't be dragged down the street by customers. Instead, take the initiative to decide where you want to go by choosing the parking place, time and customers. " I'm surprised. That sounds interesting. "Some people say that being a taxi driver is a career that depends on luck. I thought it wasn't. You must stand.

Stand in the customer's position and think from the customer's point of view. This sentence sounds very professional, a bit like what many business management training teachers say, "put yourself in others' shoes." "

"Let me give you an example. At the entrance of the hospital, one is holding medicine and the other is holding a washbasin. Which one do you take? " I thought about it and said I didn't know.

"You want to take the washbasin. Most people with minor ailments and pains go to the hospital to see and prescribe some medicine, not necessarily to a distant hospital. Take a taxi with a washbasin. Has been discharged from the hospital. How can someone not die in the hospital? Who died on the second floor today, and another one will die on the third floor tomorrow. People who come out of the hospital usually have a feeling of being completely transformed. Re-understand the meaning of life, health is the most important thing. That day, this one said: Go, go to Qingpu. Without blinking an eye. Do you think he will take a taxi to People's Square and then take Qingpu Line? Absolutely not! "

Can't help but admire.

"Give you an example. Three people waved in front of People's Square that day. A young woman, with a small bag, just bought some things. There is also a pair of young men and women who are shopping at first sight. The third is a man with a velvet shirt inside and a down jacket outside, holding a notebook bag. I think a person only needs three seconds. I stopped in front of this man without hesitation. After getting on the bus, the man said: Yan 'an elevated, north-south elevated ~ ~ ~ I couldn't help asking, why did you drive to me without hesitation? There are two people in front. They want to get on the bus. I'm embarrassed to grab it. I replied that it would be 1 in ten minutes at noon. That girl sneaked out to buy things at noon, so it is estimated that the company is very close. The man and the woman are tourists. They didn't take anything and won't go far. You are on a business trip, with a notebook bag. It looks like a business trip. And go out at this time, it is estimated that it should not be nearby. The man said, you're right, go to Baoshan. "

"Those who take a taxi at the gate of the supermarket, take the subway and wear pajamas may go far? Is it possible to go to the airport? The airport won't let her in. "

That makes sense! The more I listen to it, the more interesting it becomes.

"Many drivers complain that business is not good, and oil prices have risen again. They all look for reasons from others. I said, you will always look for reasons from others and never make progress. Look for it yourself and see what the problem is. " It sounds familiar, like "If you can't change the world, change yourself", or a book named circle of influence and the Circle of Concern by Steven Covey. "On one occasion, a person stopped at Nandan Road to find Tian Lin. Later, another time, a person stopped at Nandan Road and went to Tianlin. I asked, why did all of you people who came out of Nandan Road go to Tianlin? It is said that there is a bus terminal on Nandan Road. We all arrived here by bus from Pudong, and then went to Tianlin by bus. I suddenly realized. For example, if you look at the road we drive, there are no office buildings, no hotels, nothing but bus stops. Most of the people standing here just got off the bus, so they chose the shortest way to take a taxi. Customers parked here will generally not be higher than 15 yuan. "

"So I said, attitude is everything!" I've heard more than a dozen presidents say this, and it's the first time I've heard a taxi driver say this.

"We should use scientific methods and statistics to do business. How to make money by queuing at the subway station every day? How can I support my wife and children with 500 yuan a month? It's Murder! Murder your whole family slowly. Arm yourself with knowledge. Learning knowledge can turn a person into a smart person, and a smart person can become a very smart person by learning knowledge. A very smart person can become a genius by learning knowledge. "

"Once a man took a taxi to the railway station and asked how to get there. He said to go this way. I said slowly, and then I walked on the viaduct. He said, this is a detour. I said, it doesn't matter. You often walk. You are very experienced. If you go to 50 yuan, you follow my path. When the odometer is in 50 yuan, I will turn over my watch. Give me 50 pounds, and the rest is on me. Like you said, it takes 50 minutes to walk, and it only takes me 25 minutes to take you this way. Finally, according to my way, I walked 4 kilometers more and 25 minutes faster, and I only collected 50 yuan. Passengers were very happy and saved about 10 yuan. For me, these four kilometers are more than 1 yuan. I bought it for 25 minutes at 1 yuan. As I said just now, my hourly cost is 34.5 yuan. How cost-effective I am! "

"In the public, a driver is usually three or four thousand and takes it home. Well done, about five thousand. Top drivers can earn about 7000 a month. Volkswagen has 20,000 drivers, only about 2-3 drivers, one in a million, and can get more than 8,000 a month. I am one of these 2-3 people. And it is very stable, and there will be basically no big fluctuations. "

Too strong! So far, I admire that taxi driver more and more.

"I often say that I am a happy coachman. Some people say that you are happy because you earn more money. I told them you were wrong. Because I have a happy and positive attitude, I earn more money. "

How well you speak!

"Know how to appreciate the beauty that work brings you. When it was stuck in People's Square, many drivers complained that there was another traffic jam! What bad luck. Don't do this. Feel the beauty of this city with your heart. There are many beautiful women passing by outside. Although you can't afford very modern high-rise buildings, you can enjoy them. Driving to the airport, looking at the green on both sides, it is white in winter, how beautiful. Look at the odometer again,/kloc-more than 0/00, more beautiful! Every job has its beauty, and we must know how to appreciate this beauty from work. "

"I am the head coach of Johnson & Johnson Company 10 years ago. Eight years ago, I worked in the company as the department manager of three different departments. Later, I quit, and it was only 3 or 5 thousand yuan a month, which was boring. Just take the initiative to be a driver I would like to be a happy coachman. Hahahaha. "

When I arrived at the airport, I left him a business card and said, "Are you interested in coming to my office this Friday to tell Microsoft employees how to drive a taxi?" You just set your watch, 60 kilometers an hour, and I'll give you as much money as you want to talk. Call me. "

I can't wait to record his vivid MBA class on the plane.

Life should be content.
