Business Men Go Down With Their Businesses

Henry Ford
Business men go down with their businesses because they like the old way so well they cannot bring themselves to change. one sees them all about - men who do not know that yesterday is past, and who woke up this morning with their last year's ideas.

More From Henry Ford

I find so many people struggling, often working harder, simply because they cling to old ideas. they want things to be the way they were; they resist change. i know people who are losing their jobs or their houses, and they blame technology or the economy or their boss. sadly they fail to realize that they might be the problem. old ideas are their biggest liability. it is a liability simply because they fail to realize that while that idea or way of doing something was an asset yesterday, yesterday is gone.

The acts of the mind, wherein it exerts its power over simple ideas, are chiefly these three: 1. combining several simple ideas into one compound one, and thus all complex ideas are made. 2. the second is bringing two ideas, whether simple or complex, together, and setting them by one another so as to take a view of them at once, without uniting them into one, by which it gets all its ideas of relations. 3. the third is separating them from all other ideas that accompany them in their real existence: this is called abstraction, and thus all its general ideas are made.

There are more ideas on earth than intellectuals imagine. and these ideas are more active, stronger, more resistant, more passionate than "politicians" think. we have to be there at the birth of ideas, the bursting outward of their force: not in books expressing them, but in events manifesting this force, in struggles carried on around ideas, for or against them. ideas do not rule the world. but it is because the world has ideas (and because it constantly produces them) that it is not passively ruled by those who are its leaders or those who would like to teach it, once and for all, what it must think.
Struggle Book Thinking
If you hear a good idea, capture it; write it down. don't trust your memory. then on a cold wintry evening, go back through your journal, the ideas that changed your life, the ideas that saved your marriage, the ideas that bailed you out of bankruptcy, the ideas that helped you become successful, the ideas that made you millions. what a good review-going back over the collection of ideas that you gathered over the years. so be a collector of good ideas for your business, for your relationships, for your future.

If you bring [tax] rates down, it makes it easier for small business to keep more of their capital and hire people. and for me, this is about jobs. i want to get america's economy going again. fifty-four percent of america's workers work in businesses that are taxed as individuals. so when you bring those rates down, those small businesses are able to keep more money and hire more people.

Buying a share of a good business is better than buying a share of a bad business. one way to do this is to purchase a business that can invest its own money at high rates of return rather than purchasing a business that can only invest at lower ones. in other words, businesses that earn a high return on capital are better than businesses that earn a low return on capital.
