6 major “scams” in the adult world that will make you suffer a lot
In the adult world, true and false, false and true, everything is very hypocritical.
How can we see the truth behind it? Only by pushing aside the dark can you see the truth.
When you use reason to clear away the fog of this world, you will find that there are six major scams in the adult world, and ordinary people may be victims of them.
01. Scheme.
What is a Scheme? It is the so-called “tear down the east wall to repair the west wall”.
This person bought something, made a profit, and attracted a lot of people to buy it. As these people invested a lot of money, the boss behind the scenes simply took the money and ran away.
For example, some gyms offer profits at the beginning and encourage customers to sign up for one-year memberships. After a large number of customers have signed up for membership, the gym owner feels that he has almost made money, and will leave with money, leaving the gym empty.
No wonder some people lament that if they can successfully buy a house and live in it, it is already a favor from the elites. Of course, this is just a joke, just listen to it.
We must be cautious about all “low risk, high return” products and projects. Because this is most likely a scheme. As the market continues to grow, there will be more and more schemes.
2. Learn the illusion of success.
In recent years, “Success Learning” has been widely spread on the Internet and has become very popular. Others advertise that as long as you buy a certain course, you can learn any technology and achieve success smoothly.
To get you to buy the course, others will take screenshots and show several successful examples. Many people saw these successful examples, believed them, and were fooled.
Is the so-called success study really useful? It’s useless. Two years ago, a colleague wanted to play in a certain music e-commerce business, so he spent 1,999 yuan to buy a set of courses. After I got it, I realized that these courses were meaningless chicken soup.
The essence of successful learning is that others use some gimmicks to make money from those who want to succeed. Success is not the success of the person who buys the course, but the success of the seller.
As the saying goes, “The rich water does not flow to outsiders’ fields. “ Who would tell outsiders the real secret to success? This is the truth.
3. paint a rosy picture
To say who the originator of “Paint a rosy picture” is, we need to talk about one person, Steven Jobs.
When Jobs poached PepsiCo Vice President Sculley, he drew a famous “big pie”:
Do you want to sell sugar water for the rest of your life, or do you want to come with me and change the world?
Generally speaking, this kind of “Paint a rosy picture” behavior is all deception. Just like a boss in the workplace, I tell you today, work hard, and the position of future manager will be yours.
So You work hard, but the manager’s position is taken by the boss’s nephew. This shows what? Everything is an illusion.
4. The psychology of delayed gratification.
In the field of psychology, there is a term, for delayed gratification. It means that you place all your current happiness on the future, thinking that the future will be happier instead of living in the present.
For example, a child does not go to an amusement park when he is a child and then goes to an amusement park when he grows up. When he grows up, it’s not that he won’t be able to go to amusement parks. Even if he goes, he won’t be able to feel the happiness he had when he was a child.
For another example, when you were young, you had the opportunity to say, “The world is so big and I want to see it.” But you didn’t go and waited until you retired. As you retire, your legs and feet are weak, and you have no chance.
A considerable number of people live with a “delayed gratification” mentality. This is doomed that their lives will only be filled with pain and not a trace of happiness.
As long as you live, you should never delay gratification, but live in the present and enjoy yourself in time. Because no one knows which one will come first, the accident or tomorrow.
5. The limitations of big data information cocoon room.
There is a sociological term, information cocoon. It refers to the phenomenon that the information fields that people pay attention to will be habitually guided by their interests, thus shackling their lives in a “cocoon room” like a silkworm cocoon.
To put it bluntly, on the Internet, whatever content you like to browse, the big data algorithm in the background will recommend what content to you on time. And these contents are all similar and identical.
Since you only browse these contents and not other contents, your thinking and cognition are limited and restricted by big data. Slowly, your vision will become narrower.
for example. If you like to browse short videos of chicken soup, what big data recommends to you are short videos of various chicken soups. In the process of subtlety, your ideas are assimilated by chicken soup literature.
How can we alleviate the situation in the information cocoon room? There is only one way, read more books and read different types of books. Only by reading widely can you broaden your horizons.
6. The herd mentality of play for a sucker
There is a story. To eat more chickens, a wolf thought of a way — he put up a sign on the edge of the cliff and said, “If you don’t fly, how will you know that you are not a phoenix?”
A chicken tried it and unfortunately fell off a cliff. The other chickens also tried, and they all fell off the cliff. And this wolf, waiting at the bottom of the cliff, is full of rewards.
Why can this wolf succeed? Because it captures the herd mentality of these chickens. As long as one chicken jumps, the other chickens will also jump.
The elites in reality are these wolves, and the countless ordinary people who follow the crowd are these chickens. The sad thing is that even if these chickens fall to death, they don’t know why they fell to death.
When you understand this story, your chances of playing for a sucker will be greatly reduced.
