This is an article I read from a book yesterday. It is said that the article was an excerpt from the words of a prestigious entrepreneur. The uncertainty of the root didn't diminish the value of the meaning.
The monetary value of a match is minimal compared to the price of a house but a match can destruct a house with its flames easily.
It takes months to stack up dominoes and within minutes for them to all fall down.
To establish a successful company decades of time are devoted but it takes a wrong decision to make it go bankrupt.
To develop respectful dignity one must be trusted over time but he can lose his integrity with just one mistake.
What is this destructive match in our life?
1. Uncontrollable emotion
2. Unreasonable decision
3. Stubborn characteristic
4. Relentless and narrow mind
一根火柴棒價值不到一毛錢，一棟房子價值數百萬元
但是一根火柴棒卻可以摧毀一棟房子，可見微不足道的潛在破壞力。
一旦發作起來，其攻堅滅頂的力量，無物能禦 。
要疊一百萬張骨牌，需費時一個月，但倒骨牌卻只消十幾秒鐘 。
要累積成功的實業，需耗時數十載，但要倒閉，卻只需一個錯誤決策。
要修養被尊敬的人格，需經過長時間的被信任，但要人格破產卻只需要做錯一件事。
一根火柴棒，是什麼東西呢?
它就是下列四項:
1. 無法自我控制的情緒
2. 不經理智判斷的決策
3. 頑固不冥的個性
4. 狹隘無情的心胸
檢查看看，我們隨身攜帶幾根火柴棒?
