I. Positioning principles

When you first enter the workplace, you can also find yourself in the world. The most important thing to do is to have a self-positioning first. In the past 30 years, the number of business units in Hexi is as high as that in Hexi. If you do not know what you are or what you want, you may not know how many times you want to move around. The world will not abandon you, and you will also sink.

Why is self-positioning important. The simplest principle is that you don't know what your destination is. How do you know which shuttle bus to take? Even if you don't know what you want, the gods don't know what to give you.

A friend often told me to go to school and asked him why? The current job is not satisfactory. What do you do in the future? After reading the paper, you can find a good job and start your own business if you have the opportunity. Every time I hear this kind of answer, my mind is that a person who has nothing to do is born. Not to mention the fact that entrepreneurship is successful for everyone, but there are special requirements for it. I really don't understand the inevitable relationship between my studies and entrepreneurship? I also don't understand what is the inevitable relationship between a good job and entrepreneurship? You must be clear about the people you want to work for and start a business? After all, there are too many people in the world who have not worked well and have not created any new business.

Entrepreneurship is not the topic I want to discuss. I will have the opportunity to add it in the future. I will summarize some examples of my entrepreneurial success and failure into some articles. In this post, we will only discuss the workplace.

1. You cannot walk two steel wires at the same time

All the friends who have seen the acrobatics walk on the wire know that the acrobatics walk a steel wire with both their feet. They do not say that the two steel wires are blank at the same time, and they walk one by one. Why? Because the two wires are more difficult to maintain a balance than the other one, it is inevitable to fall.

In real life, many people are taking two or more steel wires at the same time. For example, in the workplace, entrepreneurship is the most common. A person who can walk two steel wires at the same time must be a master, but even a master, he can only choose one of them. The result of the continuous disconnection is that one piece cannot be passed, and the wire is suspended and waiting for death.

A friend a once told his story. A and B have been in a well-known company for a few years. The two have similar conditions and share the same title. they manage the business of a city. A: working is just learning experience. After several years, I started my own business. B. The goal in life is to become a professional manager and start working in the end. Their business capabilities are not bad, and their performance is similar. A few years later, the company upgraded B as a regional manager and became a supervisor of. A cannot figure it out at first. Which of the following is worse than him? In detail, many aspects are better than him. Why? But think about it and comfort yourself: B only knows that he is dead, and has no ambition or ambition. Which of the following is my ambition? When I make a fortune, I will see who is better than anyone else.

I don't know how many people are holding this idea. The conclusion is: Find your own dead end. There are still many reasons why enterprises want to improve B rather than a. many stories of a are quite typical. We will come here one by one. The important reason is that a's own ideas are limited. When I work poorly, I think that I have another way to start a business. When I have no chance to start a business, I think that I can work in a drought-tolerant place. With this idea and mentality, even if the job performance is good, but the details and attitude are bound to show, this performance is enough to make a have no chance to promote.

Therefore, if you want to work or start a business, you 'd better understand this problem early. If you want to understand it, don't worry about it. Honestly go through your own wire.

Who will cover you?

One of the common scenes in Hong Kong gang movies: when the two gangs meet each other and get together with each other, they will inevitably look at each other after shouting and shouting: which one is the best guy? If the back-end brother is hard, the other party may have left the back-end to give in. If the back-end brother is not hard enough, it will inevitably be a melee. If there is no back-end brother hood, hey, then, wait for a person to be overturned and beg for mercy again.

Of course, this is not the case in the workplace. Everyone is civilized and has evolved. Because the workplace is a civilized person, it is even more difficult to grasp things such as gangs and mountain lands. Many of my friends have some bad luck or even lost work experience. Why? Maybe you still don't know what it is.

In political parties, almost all those elected as the top administrative officers have the background of political parties. Without the support of political parties, individuals can gain greater power and have a higher personality. In the face of complicated political competition, they will also lose ground.

There are politics in the workplace, as well as factions. More often, there are no obvious factions, or even no obvious small circles. Some are just a feeling and an atmosphere, it is even a rumor. From small to large, our education tells us to be honest people, honest people, hardworking people, people who are good at cooperating with others. When many people hear "workplace politics", they will have a strong resistance. In fact, in all fairness, how many people in the world are willing or willing to fight constantly? It is a basic fact that people cannot help themselves in the rivers and lakes, where people have rights and interests, and where interests exist, politics.

Therefore, in the workplace, in addition to understanding your job responsibilities and content, you must also understand how many big trees exist in your company, however, it is impossible for you to cool down under several trees at the same time, if there is a conflict of interests or relationship between them. As if you cannot keep your feet on two wires forever, you must choose a big tree.

We all know that there have been four great joys and sorrows in life since ancient times, but not many people know that there have been four great sorrows in life since ancient times ". One of them is "less than no good teacher", and there is no good teacher guide when you are young. What is a mentor in the gang? What is a good teacher in the workplace? Is your big tree.

The first advantage of a big tree is to avoid being a victim. The first bad luck in the fight for power is that there is no background. I once had dinner with several leaders in the Authority Department, and said: there is an illegal enterprise somewhere. Another leader immediately asked: Is there a background? No. Another one: That's it! At that time, my reaction was simply a Hong Kong film. The first bad luck of several powerful team members was the boss who was not sitting on the desk.

There is a big tree, and the second is that a dog is promoted to heaven. At present, there are countless pieces of celebrity autobiography in the world. It seems that every celebrity is a talented person, and wenchengwude, with what ability, diligence, step by step or taking a rocket, has risen from a small employee to a big president. Of course, I do not deny that these people are very competent and their business is outstanding. But do they really rely on individual struggles? In particular, what kind of reception is carried out in the workshop as the director? The handyman is the general manager; the technician is the boss; the successful person must, of course, emphasize in his autobiography, the individual struggles to get everything, and encourage the future. But what is the actual situation?

Let's go over the autobiography of Comrade Yang, the world's first CEO of the huge stream last year. Let's look at his first boss and the second boss's position? No one on the top is covered. In the company that is named CEO cradle like Lin, he can go up so fast and take the lead? If you want to get started, someone will bring it. This is the reality.

Let's look at the autobiography of a strong IT girl who was popular N years ago. Oh, it's really a legend at first. When I was a guy, I thought she was a fairy, A low-profile employee is the Chinese General Manager of the best company in the Industry Based on his skills. It is really against the wind. In her book, there are two words: Nb. What does she look like now? A few years ago, when I reviewed her autobiography for the third time, I knew what happened to her. Why? To put it bluntly, she is an underachievers in the workplace's political struggle. Her history is a special product of China's early stages of reform and opening up, and it has no universal significance at all. When she came out to mix the world with that set, no matter what kind of lofty ideal as a coat, the ending was doomed.

As the saying goes: first ask who the master is. Many working friends have been visiting the door for a long time. They say hello to the east and the west. They think that the atmosphere is good and their pleasure is also melting. As a result, no one knows about the home. If you are a small person, you will not be able to fight at half past one. So some of my friends are very self-satisfied, coughing, and working politics. I am doing very well. What is the balance. I want to tell you that you are not good enough. When will the Elders ask a younger brother's opinion. Like the female comrade mentioned above, the name is a dead path, and the color is brilliant. I really treat myself as a god.

Therefore, the first principle of working for a job is to first identify who is the real eldest brother, and to get ahead early.

Comrade Lu Xun has a series of special classics. The general idea is that there are three kinds of Chinese people: one is to hold down the slaves, and the other is to make slaves and the seats are unstable, one is to make slaves. One time I used this to ridicule a buddy and said that he was the third type. I hate to wait for a long time until I look at the general manager's clothes and give him a look. He turned his lips against each other: you are just a slave who has been seated. I laughed. Why? He replied to a classic story: all employees who work are slaves! I agree: A person who has an ideal person and is responsible for himself is not a slave.

Therefore, self-positioning is so important. In this era where we did not see the Ancients and those who were later, if we did not have our own self-positioning, our own ideals and goals, we would not be able to turn ourselves into slaves.

2. Set your beliefs and goals. The sooner the better.

What can we use to determine the reasons for existence and the value of existence when we live? Different people have different opinions. For me, a person's mission is the reason for his existence, and the realization of his mission is the embodiment of value. Humans are different from animals because they have faith. Those with faith are happy.

Between Principles and reality

A person's life, pain on the left, temptation on the right, how many people can follow his or her own path? The biggest pain for many friends is that they do not know what they are suitable for and what they should do. They are not satisfied with the status quo and sink into reality. Even more depressing is the hope that there are too many successful people on the earth, even the son of the next-door aunt, who is not doing anything, is earning more than me. People are really angry.

A salesman once told me that when I only earned one thousand yuan a month last year, I felt very humiliated when I watched others earn tens of thousands. But at that time, I just wanted not to starve myself to death, so I was so busy with my business. It was so bitter, but there was pressure to survive, so I didn't feel too bitter. I have earned tens of thousands or even more this year, but I am still worried about this year. I am always thinking about this month. What should I do if my business will not fall down next month? I will not lose my face. Looking at other people, it seems that they are doing better than themselves, and I don't know when to catch up with them. Every day, I feel very flustered.

He asked me what to do? How can we maintain performance and surpass others. I told him how you achieved one thousand from 10 thousand, just repeat it. But this does not solve your panic. Because when you earn 20 thousand or even 100,000 yuan a month, you still have to worry about it. You will always be under pressure to decrease your performance, and those who are better than you will always have it. Now those who are better than you are standing in front of you, but one day you surpass them and those who are stronger are still behind you. Even if you are better, can you beat Bill Gates and his old man?

I asked him: What kind of person do you want to be in your life? What do you expect from others when you die? How much do you want to earn is enough? How much time do you want to make the money? How much work do you do every day when you think about it clearly and push it back to reality? By doing so, you can rest at ease. Because you don't have to compare with others. As long as you do your daily work well, your goal will be achieved by the time. What can you do with panic?
