JACK MA - ALIBABA.COM FOUNDER.

Jack Ma – The Inspirational Story of Alibaba Founder


We are all social creatures always looking for fantasy in real life to trigger our thought process and seek inspiration from them. On a daily basis we come across a lot of strangers but we seek inspiration from only a few of them, and what sets them apart is the stories that they have to tell. Even as a child, we grow up listening to stories of how a hero comes to the rescue of his people and his family, we find solace in such stories. Studies have also found that such inspirational stories have a positive effect on our brains and helps us become more emphatic, generous and improve our overall outlook on life.

So, today we’ll talk about a story. The story of the life of a man who has impacted the entire economy and internet industry of China almost single-handedly. His life is nothing less than the story of Robert, The Bruce and the Spider, that we were taught as kindergartens. This is the story of Jack Ma.
Who is Jack Ma?

Jack Ma is the founder of the E-commerce giant Alibaba and is a stakeholder at Alipay, its sister company which is an e-payment portal. He is now officially the richest man in China with an estimated net worth of $25 Billion, on the back of the recent world record $150 Billion IPO filing of his company. Given all of this, Jack Ma only holds a 7.8% stake in Alibaba and a 50% stake in Alipay. Alibaba and Jack Ma, although are not household names out of China, you must know that Alibaba is worth more than Facebook, and processes goods more than eBay and Amazon combined!

This might be beginning to seem like the story of an arrogant and rich billionaire who hasn’t seen the dark. But don’t be mistaken by the numbers that you see above, they can fool anyone. Although as simple as it may sound, Jack Ma has had it hard in his life to get to where he is today. A true rags-to-
riches story and definitely a one which will inspire you even in your darkest days.

Jack Ma – The Backstory

Ma Yun a.k.a. Jack Ma is one of those self-made billionaires with humble beginnings. Jack Ma was born in Hangzhou, located in the south-eastern part of China. He was born and raised along with an elder brother and a younger sister during the rise of communist China and its isolation from the Western regions. His parents were traditional Musicians-Storytellers and they didn’t make enough to be even considered as middle class during those days.

Former US president Richard Nixon’s visit to Hangzhou in 1972 improved the situation of tourism in his home-town and Jack wanted to make the most of this opportunity. Jack always wanted to learn English as a kid and he spent his early mornings riding on his bike to a nearby park, giving English tours to foreigners for free. It was then he met a foreign girl who gave him the nickname ‘Jack’ for his name was hard to spell for her.

Jack, after graduating with a Bachelor’s degree in English, worked as an English teacher at Hangzhou Dianzi University with a pay of $12 a month! Now here comes the part where it gets more interesting, even before he has received that degree and became an English teacher.

Rejected, But Not a Failure.

Jack Ma as an extremely lucky bloke who just became a billionaire in a snap. But it is safe to know that Rejections are synonymous with Jack Ma. You wouldn’t believe the number of times this man has been rejected and failed.

In his early childhood, Jack Ma Failed in his Primary School examinations, not once, but Twice!  He Failed Thrice during his Middle School exams. When applying to universities after his High school, Jack failed the entrance exams thrice, before finally joining Hangzhou Normal University. He even applied and wrote to Harvard University ten times about being admitted – and got rejected each time. This was only during his education!

During and after his Bachelor’s degree Jack tried and failed to get a job at a multitude of places. After spending three years to get into a University, Jack failed to land a job after applying to them 30 times! He recollects in his interview, “When KFC came to China, 24 people went for the job.  Twenty-three people were accepted.  I was the only guy who wasn’t.” He also one of the 5 applicants to a job in Police force and was the only one getting rejected after being told, “No, you’re no good.”

Also, on his Entrepreneurial undertakings, Jack Ma went on to fail on two of his initial ventures. But that didn’t stop him in any way of dreaming bigger.

Down, but not Out!

The Resurrection of Jack Ma

In one of his interviews, when asked about his rejections, this is what he had to say, “Well, I think we have to get used to it.  We’re not that good.” Overcoming the pain of rejections and treating rejections as opportunities to learn and grow was what Jack Ma made of it.

After finally coming to terms with all of his rejections and failures, Jack Ma visited US in 1995, for a Government undertaking project related to the building of highways. It was then that Jack Ma was first introduced to the Internet and Computers. Computers were pretty rare in China then, given the high costs associated with them and Internet or E-mails were non-existent. The first word he searched on the Mosaic browser was ‘Beer’, and it popped out results from different countries, but signs of China anywhere. He then searched ‘China’ and not a single result popped out! He decided it was time for China and its people to get on the Internet.

Finally, after persuading 17 of his other friends to invest and join him in his new e-commerce startup – Alibaba, the company began from his apartment. Initially, Alibaba didn’t had a single penny in investment from outside investors, but they later raised $20 Millio from SoftBank and another $5 Million from Goldman Sachs in 1999. Building trust among the people of China that an online system of payment and package transfers is safe was the biggest challenge Jack Ma and Alibaba faced, a challenge that Jack will cherish for his lifetime.

Having started his first successful company at the age of 31 and even after never having written a single line of code or selling something to anyone, Jack Ma runs one of the biggest E-commerce networks in the world. The company went on to grow rapidly, expanding all across the world, quickly growing out of its China shell. Only second to Walmart now in terms of sales per year, Alibaba has become the E-commerce giant that Jack Ma has envisioned for it.

BABA VANGA - THE GREATEST BULGARIAN PROPHETESS

BABA VANGA, a bulgarian mystic lady came into the spotlight nowadays for her predictions about future with an accuracy of 85% true predictions about future including the rise of the ISIS, the fall of the twin towers, the 2004 Tsunami, and the global warming, among a host of other events. “Horror, horror! The American brethren will fall after being attacked by the steel birds.
















(1911-1996)  Vangelia gushterova or baba vanga was born on january 31,1911 in Strumica, yugoslovakia. she is recognized worldwide for her prophecies and is renowned as a phenomenon thathas gift to fortell the future.

People called Baba vanga the bearer of good news. Baba Vanga, mysteriously lost her eyesight when she was 12, during a massive storm. She went missing for a few days, and it is during one of these days, that she had her first vision.  Baba Vanga rose to popularity as she started to make predictions, and developed a healing touch, during the World War II. Several dignitaries visited the mystic during the years that she was active, including the Bulgarian tsar, Boris III. Before she died in 1996 from breast cancer, she had said that her gift would be passed on to a 10 year old girl, living in France, who will then take on from her. Her house has since been converted into a museum. 



Here are 13 predictions that the Blind Baba made for 2016 and beyond:
Barack Obama will be the last president of the US: Baba Vanga had predicted that the 44th US president would be an African American, but she had also added that he would be the last one. According to her, he would leave office at a time when the country would be in economic ruins, and there would be a huge divide between the northern and southern states – as was the case during the American Civil War.
Europe will cease to exist: According to Baba Vanga, the continent will cease to exist by 2016, and all that would remain will be empty spaces and wasteland, nearly devoid of any form of life. She is reported to have said that chemical weapons would be used by extremists against Europe.
Muslims will invade Europe: The blind mystic had also predicted that Muslims will invade Europe, and there will be widespread destruction by extremists, which will go on for many years, until the continent ceases to exist. She had also predicted that a Great Muslim War will begin in Syria. 
China will become the new super power: As per her predictions, China is set to become the new superpower in 2018, bringing an end to the United States and its economy. According to her, the exploiters (the developed nations) will become the exploited (the third world). In 2011, the International Monetary Fund had also predicted that China’s economy will overtake that of the US in 2016, emerging as the new superpower.    
Hunger eradication: Baba Vanga has predicted that hunger will get eradicated sometime between 2025 and 2028.
On to Venus: Humans will travel to Venus, according to the Baba, in search of new energy sources. They might even set up a colony there.
Rome as the capital of the Islamic caliphate: Islam will finish invading the whole of Europe by 2043, and Rome will be the capital of the new caliphate.
Ice caps melting: According to the Baba, ice caps will melt by 2045. The rate at which the ice caps are melting already due to global warming, does seem to suggest the same.  
Cloning of organs: As per Baba Vanga’s predictions, body organs will be cloned in 2046, and that would be the easiest method of treatment. 
US attacking Muslim dominated Europe: By 2066, the US will attack Muslim dominated Europe using climate change weapon, and will try to retake Rome and bring back Christianity.
The return of Communism: By 2076, communism will return to Europe and the rest of the world. 
Underwater civilizations: By 2130, civilizations will learn how to live under water, with the help of aliens. 
The death of the Earth: By 3797, everything on Earth will cease to exist. However, humans will be advanced enough to move to a new star system.

One of the topic from which she came into spotlight was she predicted that Barack Obama was the last president of USA.
It leds to the fear of assassination of 45th elected President,Donald trump as he has to take swear of presidentship on january 20,2017.  
Incredibly, Baba correctly predicted that the 44th President of the United States would be black.
Baba has previously hit the headlines after apparently correctly predicting the 9/11 terror attacks, the 2004 Boxing Day Tsunami and the rise of ISIS.The mystic also made a chilling prophecy warning of an invasion of Europe by Muslim extremists in 2016.
so all are hoping that demise of 45th elected president, donald trump predictions only be a rumour. So that USA could not face this devastating uncertainity.

500 AND 1000 NOTE CURRENCY NOT REMAIN LEGAL TENDER

BAN ON 1000 AND 500 NOTES
#As per honourable prime minister massive announcement about the ban on 500 and 1000 currency notes at 8 pm on Monday, the 500 and 1000 currency notes no longer remain legal tender.

Its a well planned strategic decision taken by our prime minister with reserve bank of  India, its all started about 1 yr back when government links the Adhaar number with a bank account so that all the information regarding all bank account holder will be provided to the income tax department, the government put spy eye on all peoples. 

Then the timings of announcement took all credit as the government was very aware of the fact that all business houses, jewellery shops and most essential share market cannot accept transactions after 8 pm. And therefore all black money holder cannot pay any transactions after 8 at any illegal activities

 

#Instead of 500 and 1000 Rupee notes RBI will be issuing 2000 rupee notes which will be a regular currency circulation over India.
All those people who are worrying about what to do with the stacks of 500 and 1000 notes, need not glaze and run punching on the government. Because they have released a statement saying that all the remaining 500 and 1000 rupees notes are to be deposited at neat by Post OfficesWell Indian finance is sure going to face chaos by the demoing plans of our beloved Prime Minister Narendra Modi. So, most of you might be wondering what more topics have been discussed and stated during this speech. So I have posted all of them below.• Sab ki Sarkaar, sab ka Vikas – governance and progress for all is our motto. We are focused on the empowerment of the poor. A series of schemes we have introduced all aim at this. This is a government for our farmers.• Corruption and black money are diseases rooted in this country, they are obstacles to our success.• We are among fastest-growing economies, but we also rank so high in global corruption rankings.• Terror strikes at the innocent. Who funds these terrorists? Across the border, our enemy uses fake currency and dodgy funds to sponsor terror – this has been proven repeatedly.• Terror strikes at the innocent. Who funds these terrorists? Across the border, our enemy uses fake currency and dodgy funds to sponsor terror – this has been proven repeatedly.• When you elected this government in 2014, the world was talking about India being shaky economically. But India is now an economic star – this is what IMF and World Bank are saying. Commoners over social media networks like Facebook and Twitter have started trolling the decision made by Indian government Prime Minister Narendra Modi. This issue might seem going easy but would turn into a chaos if the government takes no necessary steps to circulate money correctly.

I was obsessed with cars and I wasn't aware there was a career in car designing," says Dilip Chhabria, founder of DC Design.A well-known designer and innovator shared his life journey, career in modifying cars and success story with the students of Manipal University on Friday. The event was organised by Manipal Institute of Technology, Manipal."I was very shy, filled with inferiority complex, never liked going to college, but I was pursuing my hobby outside classroom. I had a lot of time for myself since I was shy and it was the genesis of my career. So, people who are shy should feel proud about it," he said when asked by the moderator to describe his days as a college student. For him, car models were his role models.


Talking about his girlfriend in his college days, Dilip said on a lighter note, "My girlfriend strengthened my inferiority complex by dumping me very fast, which helped me succeed.

The same Dilip goes on to become the automobile style guru and founder of DC designs whose repertoire includes designing expensive cars, executive jets, helicopters, designing yachts and making India’s first sports car, DC Avanti.

STAY INSPIRED NOT MOTIVATED!

  • MOTIVATION- Is for sometime.
  • INSPIRATION- was forever with you.
It is usually happens with all of us as we once try to change ourselves or our habits, and all also take some actions to be a part of change but cannot sustain to a longer hours.
There is genuine reason behind this, for instance we take an example of a common man who dreamt to be a richest man in the world.He take multiple actions towards its dream for success. He have all in him to make revolution in his life will power,strength, courage and spirit.
He makes plans, put those plans in action for some days, weeks,months.But hard times comes when he can`t sustain towards his plans, he get stuck.
And follows his old daily routine moves to the wrong track and then his dream of becoming a world richest become fade because he cannot motivated for a longer time.
BUT BRINGS OUT TO BECOME LOSER.
And that is the small reason why we cannot sustain to our daily schedule, plans,and also our dreams. Because we doesn`t motivated all the time.
we ignited to takes actions as we just watched a video of a successful person, or read an article of an topper who successfully cleared IAS or any other exams.These all stuffs arouse us to take actions but they never lasts long.
“THATS WHAT THE REASON OF OUR FAILURE IN EVERY ASPECTS OF LIFE WHETHER COMMERCIAL OR PERSONAL”
AS a survey tells that 99% peoples are fails in life because they are not consistent in any particular work whether that work was their dream whom they want to achieve in any conditions.
  • So instead to be motivated be inspired.
  • Because inspiration never lefts you.
  • And the day you get inspired is the day you make a revolution.
So being a learner I want to share a little idea with you to get inspired all the time.
MAKE A ROLE MODEL- whom you follow to an unlimited extent.
There are some list of person whom could be a perfect role model.
  1. DILLIP CHABBARIYA- man behind aston martin.
  2. STEVE JOBS- founder of apple.
  3. BILL GATES- founder of microsoft.
  4. SANDEEP MAHESWARY- founder and ceo of imagebazaar.com.
  5. NARENDRA MODI- honorable prime minister of India.
  6. BARRACK OBAMA- honorable president of America.
  7. DHEERU BHAI AMBANI- founder of reliance industries.
  8. NORMAN VINCENT PEALE- author of power of positive thinking.
  9. JACK MA- founder of alibaba.
  10. SATYA NADELA- ceo at microsoft
  11. SUNDAR PICHAAI-ceo at google.com.
And here is a small personal idea to be inspired that there is any person around us whom words are worthy to us, who always want us to be successful and sometimes scold us for to be serious about our career.
# pause that scolding movement and record that voice clip.
#jot down the words of the clip in the notes which you read everyday.
memorize the clip until you remembered those words.
revise them everyday, keep them in your mind.
and think of those word before taking any steps towards your dream, i am sure that you will get inspired to an unlimited extent.
