The moment you complete this article, you will be able to learn how to find good or bad for you for a few years ahead, and how long this season will last so that you can take action accordingly: if there is a storm on the horizon You will avoid in time, if the sunny days are coming, you will have an advantage before the opportunity passes, so that you can succeed in life.
However, before we do this, we must first look at the lessons learned from the life of Greek tycoon Aristotle Onassis, how his choice of life season is from good to bad, and vice versa, fundamentally affecting His successful career. Onassis began his career as a ship owner in 1933, and the Great Depression of 1929 was not over yet. Due to the crisis, the price of the ship ' fell sharply. A 10-year-old freighter built $1 million in 1920 and is now available for $20,000. Onassis found that there are ten such vessels available for sale in St. Lawrence, Canada. He immediately purchased six of them for $20,000 each. A few years later, he greatly expanded his fleet: he received $40 million in loans from various US banks in 1947 and built 18 ships, including tankers.
But in 1954, he did something that made him fall to the brink of destruction. After a series of negotiations, he reached an agreement with the King of Saudi Arabia to grant him the exclusive right to use his tanker to transport the country's huge oil production. However, once the agreement is announced, there will be a storm of protest against Onassis - not only from the large US oil companies that own the exclusive rights to produce Saudi Arabian oil, but also from the US government itself.
The oil company officially protested to Saudi Arabia and made it clear to Onassis that whenever his ship arrived at the port of the country to load crude oil, they would not let him own it. US Secretary of State John Foster Dulles warned Saudi Arabia that if they insist on maintaining an agreement with Onassis, American oil companies will stop oil production in the country. In the face of this reaction, the King of Saudi Arabia was forced to cancel the agreement.
At the same time, the American oil company decided to stop any cooperation with Onassis in retaliation. Whenever the charter contract of any of his ships expires, they will not renew the contract, but will hand it over to other shipowners. At the end of 1955, half of the tanker fleet of Onassis was idle. His main source of income is to dry up at a very fast pace. This situation also continued until 1956. More and more ships have become idle, and these ships have been mortgaged by the huge loans he borrowed to build them. But Onassis no longer has enough income to repay the loan. In desperation, he went to his American bank and asked them to take over his ship. The international shipping community expects him to declare bankruptcy at any time.
However, bankruptcy has never happened. The new season begins with the life of Onassis. In October 1956, due to the crisis between Egypt and Israel, the Suez Canal closed its shipping. Therefore, ships must travel around Africa and take into account the time of each trip. Too few vessels can meet demand, and in 1957 freight costs soared to unpackaged heights. The only owner of the ship is Onassis. Because of the boycott of the American oil company's boycott, he has a large number of ships idle in various ports. The results are predictable. The boats of Onassis were chartered by desperate businessmen, the boycott ended, and the fierce relationship with the oil company was forgotten.
Victory has arrived, not destruction. Onassis began to realize the dazzling profits: in 1957, he earned $70 million - and ten years ago, he was heavily in debt with his $40 million loan. The profits are unbelievable. Onassis doesn't know how to handle all this money. His first move was to repay all the loans he owed.
His second act was commissioned to build new ships - they were a 100,000-ton tanker and the largest tanker in the world at the time. His third act was to hold a sly reception in Monte Carlo to celebrate his wealth growth. A few years later, Onassis became the richest man on earth.
However, in 1973, Onassis' brilliant season will suddenly end. Next is a tragic season, the last life of Onassis. In January 1973, Onassis' son Alexander died at a 19-year-old plane crash at the Athens airport. Onassis initially stated that he had overcome this incident. Immediately after the funeral and funeral of his son's private island Skorpios, he began to expand his fleet. At that time, the fleet had more than 100 vessels - 15 of which were supercharged with 120 tankers. - Onassis commissioned the construction of six tankers, two of which were 400,000 tons each, making it the world's largest tanker.
But since 1974, the situation has begun to deteriorate. Perhaps because of his son's death, he began to suffer from myasthenia gravis in 1974, an incurable disease that affects the eyes and other parts of the body. He couldn't open his eyelids and had to block them with tape. When he spoke, he also had difficulty swallowing food and couldn't speak. Not surprisingly, he is full of complaints about his life, about himself, about his marriage, about everything.
Next year 1975 - is the last of Onassis' life: he is seriously ill with pneumonia. In a bad situation, he entered a hospital in Paris where he was used to no avail. On March 15, 1975, the world's richest man died - at the age of 69. Only his daughter Christina was at his bedside.
in conclusion
From Onassis ' life originated in 1957, the bad season he experienced [he can recall that he faced bankruptcy] suddenly ended, and when the Suez Canal began to ship and began to become the richest, he It started a wonderful season. People on earth. But in 1974, his life had a seasonal reversal: his good season ended at that year, a bad season began, when his beloved son Alexander died in a plane crash, and Onassis began to suffer from myasthenia Powerless, eventually leading to his death.
However, similar to the changes in the season, it also comes from the biography of many other famous people I studied. Among them, Napoleon, Beethoven, Verdi, Churchill, Picasso, Jackie Kennedy Onassis, Queen Elizabeth I, Elizabeth Taylor, Margaret Thatcher, Columbus, Mandela, etc. There are more than 20 biographies.
E.g:
from
--- Beethoven's good and bad seasons alternated in 1776, 1792, 1809 and 1825
from
--- Napoleon alternated in 1776, 1792 and 1809
from
--- Churchill alternated in 1875, 1892, 1908, 1924 and 1941
from
--- Verdi alternated in 1825, 1842, 1859, 1875 and 1892
from
--- Picasso alternated in 1892, 1908, 1925, 1941 and 1957
from
--- Jackie Kennedy Onassis alternated in 1941, 1957, 1974 and 1990
from
---Elizabeth Taylor alternated in 1941, 1958, 1975 and 1990
from
--- Margaret Thatcher alternated in 1941, 1957, 1975 and 1990
from
--- Mandela took turns in 1941, 1957, 1974 and 1990
from
--- Queen Elizabeth I alternated in 1545, 1562, 1578 and 1595
from
---Columbus alternated in 1479 and 1496.
Comparing these biographies, I came up with an amazing discovery: the seasons of all the above people alternated according to a certain pattern. In addition, after extensive research, I found that our own life ' seasons alternate according to the same specific pattern. Therefore, this means that we can foresee how the future of good and bad life will alternate with amazing accuracy.
So we can take the appropriate action. If there is a storm on the horizon, we can take shelter in time. If the sunny days are coming, we can use them before the opportunity passes. Therefore, by making contractual decisions about our business, marriage, family, relationships and all other life issues, we can achieve great success in our lives.
