How would you define success?
I believe success is more about the inner world. Real success means that your hard work benefits your colleagues, friends and the society. Some may see me as a successful man, but I don't think so.
I am more stressed and work harder than what people imagine. They say I have money but I don't have time to spend my money. Success is doing something interesting with someone you like and making some difference.
How can you ensure that you will not make mistakes?
No one can say for sure that he or she won't make mistakes.
Our success is made out of mistakes. What matters is how to learn from blunders.
We want to publish a book featuring Alibaba's 1,000 mistakes.
But never make fatal mistakes. You should know what you want, what you have and what you have to give up.
