When I graduate from college, I believe many students will test their personality and the industry and post they should be engaged in, and they will make similar explorations when they change jobs. Last week, I also did a test. My personality is: ESTJ-extroverted, with feelings, thinking and judgment, a typical housekeeping personality type. The leading function is thinking, the auxiliary function is feeling, the third function is intuition and the fourth function is emotion.
There are four characteristics in my career that I am very willing to engage in: (1) a rigorous and standardized working environment suitable for post marketing, procurement and valuation personnel; (2) Collecting, sorting, analyzing and deducing, which is suitable for post technical trainers; (3) Management, suitable for post project managers, administrators and enterprise operation consultants; (4) Engaged in professional work, suitable for post lawyers, teachers, principals, etc.
Personal character strengths: (1) Being pragmatic and caring about the results; (2) firm; (3) Abide by work arrangements and procedures. Personal weakness: (1) unwilling to try new ideas; (2) only care about the immediate, ignoring the long-term; (3) I don't like to listen to objections. According to the lack of feedback, we need to make the following improvements: slow down the pace, put ourselves in other's shoes and be flexible.
After reading the 29-page report, I feel that many of them are very appetizing and in line with the actual situation. Perseverance and obedience are the qualities that I have always adhered to since I became an adult, but because of this, I have been labeled as "stubborn", "axis" and "inflexible" on different occasions and at different times. Among the sixteen personality types, there is no perfect personality type, in other words, people can't be without shortcomings. Only in different positions, maximize the advantages and disadvantages, avoid shortcomings and shortcomings, is the greatest responsibility for yourself and work, overcome the biggest shortcomings to glow the strongest strengths, is really against human nature. This is like saying: I have a good eloquence, but my writing style is particularly poor. My writing style is crooked, but I can speak good cross talk, and I often make everyone laugh in front of the podium of 100 people! Someone gave me advice. You'd better practice your calligraphy. Stop talking about cross talk. Is this ok? Maybe I speak cross talk at 10, and I am the national authority; But my handwriting, after practicing for 10 years, is estimated to have reached the average level of junior high school students, let alone a calligrapher.
Then let's briefly analyze the attribute of "firmness" in personality. Firmness, first of all, is undoubtedly a commendatory term here. Have a clear and objective understanding of the development direction of things, and can clearly and continuously advance along the road to promote the development direction of things until things have their due value or reach the expected level. According to my opinion on the word firm, this passage needs to pick out two key words: the first is the development direction of things; The second is sustainability. Understanding and controlling the development direction of things is related to one's own experience. There is a saying in the investment community: they will not invest their money in unfamiliar areas. Similarly, as adults, they can basically judge the cause and effect of things in life, such as how typhoons pass. For example, what happens when you participate in gambling? Furthermore, can we see something beyond the development direction of our preset scene at the beginning or after some mistakes? For example, what kind of industry is suitable for? What kind of position is it suitable for? How to find a matching partner? How to train the next generation? And so on, these problems span a long period and consume a lot of energy, and the preset scenes can't meet the needs of filling the gaps in the brain. So how to grasp the development direction of these things? The meaning of "grasping the development direction of things" in the word "firm" is also inseparable from other attributes of "housekeeper" personality, and various characteristics of personality complement each other and are intertwined. Looking at any feature in isolation is only one aspect of a person. Grasping the development direction of things is closely related to thinking and judgment, and the latter is the necessary condition of the former. At work, I have perceived that execution is slightly weaker than thinking. In the process of implementing the project, I will try to outline more scenes in my mind and match them to the implementation level, so that it is easier to prevent things from deviating from the positive track. Therefore, thinking, judging, conceiving business scenarios and bluntly pointing out problems have improved the reliability and accuracy of grasping the development direction of things.
The second point is sustainability. For reading and learning English, these two items can reflect the characteristics of continuity. Reading and investment are the two main means to generate "after-sleep" income. If we insist on adhering to the teachings of sages, reading is only for "being poor and being able to help the world", and it will not be used to seek fame and fortune, or even have such an idea. Presumably at this moment, I really can't guarantee that the market economy has spawned various means of seeking economic benefits, taking reading as a pastime in my spare time, buying books to learn a professional skill for promotion and salary increase, and so on. These are all reasonable and legitimate human demands. In the face of human nature, we need objectivity, not restraint.
The first is reading. I insist on reading 75 books a year, covering product sales knowledge, development experience, furniture books, market research, supply chain management, operation management, Excel promotion, Visio drawing and other books needed for work. There are also philosophy (such as Schopenhauer in recent years), economics, finance, literature (such as Alain de Botton and Feng Jicai in recent years), history and novels (the classic novel The Thorn Birds). You can spend about 2 hours every day in your off-duty time in a year to study, constantly update and improve your thoughts and cognition, and of course you can also use it directly at work.
The second is to learn English. To tell the truth, coming out of the countryside and working in the city after graduation, my English level is really only a relatively high test score, and my oral English and writing have basically fallen behind for many years. Subscribe to 20 17 English abstracts for two years, and get 1 year. Taking these three years as a cycle, the goal is to understand English movies without looking at English subtitles at all (because of time, I don't have the habit of following American dramas, just watch movies or watch a few episodes of 1-2 American dramas). In addition, learn the topic spoken dialogue published by Kingsoft PowerWord APP every day, and update it to 1 16 days, with the goal of 3 years. My English level is far from what I expected. In the interview in Guangzhou last month, three of the four contestants finished the English test questions in a limited time of half an hour, which occupied the whole page. However, I still have two questions unanswered, which is estimated to take 10 minutes. This alone has exposed my English strength, and I can't be any weaker. I claim to have learned 65,438+08 English every day since college. Insist, there are still many places to improve.
Speaking of reading, we need to compare and analyze Schopenhauer's description of reading in How to Walk the Road of Life the other day. "Because when we are reading, others are thinking about things for us-even if this is not our own way of thinking. It is for this reason that we should not read too many books; Only in this way can we ensure that our mind will not be replaced by other people's minds, and that our ability to understand things will not be abandoned. In other words, only in this way will we not repeat the same mistakes and follow the footsteps of our predecessors, so that we will not be alienated and deviate from our own way of thinking by following other people's ideas. " Understanding Schopenhauer's words is like reading too much, which is equivalent to wearing an antenna on your head, being controlled by other people's output signals, doing what others want you to do and expressing related language.
This kind of thinking of reading too much is regarded as "antenna baby", and I don't judge right or wrong. Philosophy will not advocate the concept and values of "black and white". Limited to my own practice, I would like to express my views on the problem of "less reading". As a systematic carrier of the author's or editor's practical experience and thinking process (the editor's own or others' relevant experience/thinking/cognition, etc.). ), books are the channel to obtain information, just as food is the carrier to satisfy hunger and delicious demand. The human brain, as the biggest characteristic that distinguishes human from animal instinct, has subjective judgment on things and will be influenced by its past experiences and thoughts. It is true that more reading, the way of doing things and the way of speaking are silently influenced by some thoughts and behaviors, so as to make corresponding feedback. When the subject realizes that other people's thoughts are entering the mind and forming personal attributes, it will be polished subjectively to make it more rounded and more in line with the subject's behavior style. After brain processing and deliberate thinking about this problem, a crisscross three-dimensional thinking system is formed. The convergence of different ideas provides more thinking extension and more reference scope for imagining future scenes. For example, there is a martial artist who knows the martial arts such as knife, gun and stick 18 and uses different weapons on different occasions, but he is unlikely to lose his martial arts because he has practiced too much martial arts.
The subjective dynamic thinking of the subject absorbs rich thinking nutrients and processes them to form a part of self-cognition. For the sixteen-type personality mentioned above, no matter which one, it can be applied. The environment is changing and the market is changing. Excellent cognition and thinking, through our subjective and dynamic judgment, will form an "improved version" of self-attribute, providing guidance and direction for improving the motivation and reality of success, happiness and achievement in life and work.
