安时大俗商业学：什么引导你成功？Passion或者叫热爱
许多人在研究成功学，也就是什么使得一个人成功？成功的因素太多了，简单讲可以包括：机遇、努力、勤奋、智慧、耐心、不屈不挠、等等、等等。
但是一个人问过自己吗？你怎么样才能10年如一日的勤奋？10年如一日的努力？我不知道别人，反正我是做不到，唯一能使我每天早晨一睁眼就能从床上爬起来的是我对我的工作的passion，也就是说我热爱我所做的事情。
是什么能使得一个人不断的寻求机遇，失败了从头再来，不屈不挠？不是毅力，至少我没有这种毅力，一次失败我就够了。唯一能使得我失败了再来的还是passion，也就是说，我热爱这个事情，我已经不在乎成功与失败，努力的过程已经给了我极大的享受。
所以，当你每天早晨，实在不想从床上起来，不想做你的工作，那是因为你没有passion，那么你应该换一个工作，不要浪费生命（做自己不喜欢的事情就是浪费生命），去做你热爱的事情。
如果一个人告诉你，他是在为钱工作，你最好不要和他合作或投资，因为90%的情况下这个人不可能成功。
所以，VC考察一个投资目标企业的领导人，最最关注的是这个人的三个方面：passion, vision, guts，缺一不可。我以前和entrepreneur聊天的时候，也问他们，是什么使得他们这么辛苦创业。有人回答我：是为了挣一大笔钱，成为Bill Gates那样的亿万亿万富翁。这种企业家，我基本都列在了不投资，或者投资后要把他换掉的名单里。
当然了，如果你是一个entrepreneur，你遇到一个投资人，这个人对自己从事的事情没有任何激情，那么你最好也别找他投资，因为他帮助不了你。
我下面引用了一篇关于摩根斯坦利中国CEO的博客文章，其中Wei Christianson讲到要做一个成功的investment banker，你必须有passion，否则的话根本不可能一天15个小时的工作。我觉得Wei Christianson讲的东西对人很有启发。
最后，可能有人会说：我最大的passion就是钱，如果挣钱，我背死人都干；如果挣不到钱，你让我干什么都不干。
这种话特别容易从年轻人口里讲出来，因为当一个人年轻的时候，他没钱，他感到“没钱是万万不能的”，所以把钱看得很重。这种动力可能会推动一个人挣到第一笔钱（而且中国确实有许多企业家一开始是为了改善生活才去创业的）。可是一旦挣到钱了，这个时候，他会发现“钱不是万能”的，他的生活仍然需要going on, 而自己的passion在哪里呢？这个世界上还有没有什么事情能使得你继续工作，继续努力呢？

Recap of my conversation with Wei Christianson

How's everything going? I am sure you must be swamped with trip planning and tour guiding these days. Keep me updated with your trip and I look forward to interesting stories during your journey.
I visited Morgan Stanley's Bejing office yesterday and had a good conversation with Wei Christianson, China CEO of MS. Wei gave me a heads up about MS' business and strategy in China and also provided suggestions for my summer internship and long-term career development.
Wei mentioned two points during our conversation which impressed me a lot. She first talked about why she has been working in this industry for over 10 years. It's amazing to see that as MS' China CEO, she has to work on average 14 hours everyday. The only thing she can control is to keep the weekend off and spend more time with her Husband and three children. She told me that even John Mack, CEO of MS, works at similiar intensity everyday. So what are motivations behind those successful bankers to work so hard? Wei said it's passion. One can only thrive in an industry that he or she has passion for. If you consider career part of your life, you won't feel tired working 15 hrs everyday. Even though you feel tired physically,you won't feel tired psychologically. If you don't have passion for what you are doing, you will feel tired both physically and psychologically. In that case, you might suffer a lot working long hours.
Another thing that impressed me was Wei's enthusiasm about the Chinese market. She said she would give suggestion to a fresh MBA grad to start investment banking career in NY three years ago. But now, she would suggest going back to Asia immediately after graduation given the deal flow and opportunity here. Of course, she said spending 1-2 years at NY enables one to feel the headquarter culture and mature market environment which could not be experienced in China. But in the long run, those people with mainland background should definately come back to China. Doing business at a place where you could leverage all resources will surely increase possiblity of success.
Wei Christianson herself is a miracle in investment banking industry. She once left Morgan Stanley and followed her boss, John Mack, to join CSFB as MD. Later on, she was hired by Citigroup and took over the China CEO position after Margaret Ren stepped down due to a scandle. In 2005, when John Mack came back to MS and replaced Phil Purcell as new CEO of MS. Wei followed her former boss once again and came back to the firm to replace Jonathan Zhu's position. From her story, we can tell how important it is to follow a right person throughout the career life.
