An ordinary person, if they succeed in turning their life around, is no longer an ordinary person because they possess qualities such as perseverance, thinking patterns, business mindset, and business cognition that most people do not have. Because the act of turning one's life around requires overcoming tremendous resistance, which may come from your family, your parents, your surrounding environment, your friends and relatives, as well as the mindset you have been exposed to since childhood. Therefore, those who swim against the current must possess qualities and traits that ordinary people do not have. They are extremely disciplined to fight laziness, they need deep thinking to combat superficiality, and they require long-term patience to resist instant gratification. These are not things that an ordinary person can do. The greatest distance in the world is the gap between knowing and doing. A poor boy from a mountain village who manages to come out of the mountains and realize his life value and dreams must possess a unique trait that others around him do not have. So he has never been an ordinary person; he was just unseen before he turned his life around.
