很多人认为自己很努力工作，我会说：“你很努力吗？可是你并没有讲话讲到嘴巴流血呀。”

我天生乐观，记得小时候跟别人打架，打到上下排牙齿都掉了，妈妈看到我的模样，心疼地哭了起来，可是我依旧很快乐。妈妈不解地问我为什么？我说：“牙齿都掉了，我从今以后就不用刷牙了。”

从事行销业，我们没有摆臭脸的资格，每天都要笑脸迎人。微笑是会传染的，只要你带着微笑，别人也会对你微笑，气氛就会跟着改变，所以人要尽可能地微笑，把欢乐传给别人。

煮锅绿豆天天吃

我的第一份工作是在福特汽车当会计，工作起来驾轻就熟，可是我做得并不快乐。我宁可多绕点远路，也不要在一个我不喜欢的地方工作一辈子。亲友听说我离职了，都觉得很不可思议，但我认为如果不能找到适才适性的工作，这辈子绝对不会快乐。

科学家会发明东西，艺人会表演唱歌，那是他们的专长，那我的专长是什么？我左思右想，发现我的专长就是福特汽车最不喜欢我的地方——我很爱讲话。

当我面试新工作时，我告诉每个老板，我喜欢讲话，他们一听都笑了。再问我除了讲话还有没有其他要求？我说I don't like complicated administrative work, so I hope there is less administrative work for me, and I can talk from morning till night. And the salary should be as high as possible.

每个老板听了都笑弯腰，其中有一个老板不但笑到假牙都飞到他身上，还叫其他同仁进办公室，要他再说一遍。他认为这3个要求太好笑了，但是I didn't find it funny because I was serious.

虽然I always couldn't find a job that suited me but I never gave up, until my pocket only had 27 dollars left.

同学见I am in such a low state, jokingly said to me: "You shouldn't eat at McDonald's every day. It will run out of money quickly." So I bought a big bag of mung beans and cooked a big pot of mung bean soup, eating it for breakfast, lunch and dinner for three or four days.

Lecturing until my mouth bleeds

I applied to 300 companies and each boss thought I was just joking. Only one CEO of a securities company took me seriously. He asked if everything I said was true? If you want to find someone who can talk from early morning till late at night? Find someone with almost no administrative tasks? Someone with high pay?

He hugged me tightly when he heard what he wanted. The next day he told me that he would hire me on the spot because everyone else said they worked very hard or did great in school but couldn’t hit the point. He liked what his conditions were about talking all day long.

He recorded how many calls I made every day and required that if there were fewer than 500 calls before midnight, you could go home early. When we finished the last call around dawn, people often answered grudgingly thinking it might be an emergency call or something similar (and some time later they actually came).

My daily routine involved making hundreds of phone calls without any rest while dealing with customers who might not even understand English properly due to language barriers during those late-night conversations (which sometimes got quite heated). Sometimes customers got upset when their sleep was disturbed by these constant phone calls from different times zones across America - which led them into bad mood after being woken up multiple times throughout their sleepless nights trying to get some rest while still having meetings scheduled during this chaotic period too!
