Talents! Here are waiting for you! (Algorithms of successful people). A philosophical essay.
Not so long ago there were a references to Cuba of the late 19th - early 20th century, to José Marty... José Martí 's portraits were placed on Cuban currency bills both during Batista and after Batista...
And - as a coincidence - an information. Allegedly, the body of the Cuban girl was found next to the garbage bin. The correspondence of the Cuban girl kidnapper and her girlfriend has been decrypted. Cuban girl arrived on call. She worked in this field. And - a such an outcome of life...
Why did she work in this field? Why did she work on call? ...
Almost simultaneously - an information about some Alexey Baryshnikov. It turns out he has a big debts. He lived in different cities. The main debt, allegedly, was made in Sochi. He attempted to begin business. Clearly, a start-up capital is needed. Entered the financial pyramid and remained with debts of more than a million. ("Wanted a house and a dog. Life learned new details about the hostage-taker 's life at the bank." [('Хотел дом и собаку. Лайф узнал новые детали о жизни захватчика заложников в банке'] https://life.ru/p/1325625?utm_source=yxnews&utm_medium=desktop&utm_referrer=https://yandex.ru/news )
This brings the Sochi debtor closer to the resident of the Far East, who left his two young sons at the Moscow airport. About the resident of the Far East came not a very clear information that he was sent to the business of selling fish, after which his debts were transferred to the status of impossible for return (due to their size)...
Something brings the Sochi debtor closer not only to the resident of the Far East, but also to the most famous Russian historian.
Both of them had a pursuit of knowledge. The debtor studied at some university. He probably didn 't get a diploma. After all, the most famous Russian historian did not receive diplomas of neither Doctor of Sciences nor Professor, too...
In the Western World there are periodically recognized technical geniuses.
One of these geniuses was Howard Hughes (1905 - 1976).
There are a such interesting episodes in his biography.
What can a person achieve if he has no connections (ties)? If he starts from scratch? From a zero level?
Howard Hughes had no answer to such questions and had no similar experience. He was born into a wealthy family and originally possessed abilities and considerable financial resources.
On several occasions Howard Hughes disappeared without warning from his "official life" and existed under fictional names - as a man without (social) ties, without capital, without any support.
In 1932, he in Texas, in Fort Worth, under the name of Charles Howard, took a job at the local American Airlines office as a luggage department clerk with a salary of $115 per month. "At the same time Howard signed up for internal pilot courses. In three weeks, surprising teachers with his memory and discipline, Hughes mastered the control of a Fokker passenger plane and passed a second-pilot specialty exam. During the first flight of the newly minted pilot of American Airlines, the deception was revealed... " (Wikipedia (rus). "Hughes, Howard").
Once in Russia, in the USSR, a trade, a retail was the sphere of work of mainly women (except for positions of loaders, movers).
But the time has come, chain supermarkets have opened. In them, young men worked as employees of a wide profile.
For some time, such employment was perceived as a slightly unusual phenomenon.
One of the young men was putting dirty potatoes (which was in a mesh bag) next to a trading rack. His nails were covered with a pearl lacquer. This is not a very common fashion for men - to cover a nails with something. The more unusual was the option - a light pearl varnish. Even more unusual was the neighborhood of a light pearl lacquer next to a dirty potatoes.
A week or two passed. Or a month.
At the same store, the same employee had a focused conversation with a some hot uncle. Again it was unusual. As a rule, all store employees are extremely busy. There is no time for conversations ...
Then the employee disappeared. Did he quit?
Finally, one day he appeared as a buyer and, with a kind of patronizing attitude, talked favorably with women working in the store.
Now we can recall the lines from "Eugene Onegin" by Alexander Pushkin. "You can be a sensible person And think about the beauty of nails: There is any sense to argue with the epoch?...."
In front of talents, in front of entrepreneurs and people of knowledge, more and more attractive paths are opening up!
