In order not to lose at the starting point, many people do whatever it takes to raise their starting point, as if they will win in the future. In fact, the differences between people make it difficult for them to have exactly the same starting point. Even if you lose at the starting point, it doesn't matter. Some people don't have a high degree of education. They can still dominate the workplace by tempering themselves in actual work. Life is like a marathon. It does not mean that you can win by running fast at the front, but it depends on your explosive power in the middle and at the end. Don't be obsessed with winning or losing at the starting point, better scenery is still on the way.
2. "As long as you work hard, you will succeed."
We are always taught that as long as we work hard, we will be rewarded, and as long as we work hard, we will succeed. But in fact, if you choose the wrong direction and method of effort, you will get twice the result with half the effort, or even have no results at all. Just like Edison's famous saying, "Genius is 99 perspiration plus 1 inspiration." People use this sentence to encourage you to work hard. No one tells you the second half of this sentence, "But that 1 Inspiration is the most important, even more important than 99% of sweat. "So, stop working hard, raise your head, look at the road, and think about what is the best direction for your struggle.
3. "A good employee is one who does what the boss tells you well."
On the first day of work, our parents will tell us: "Do what the boss tells you well." It seems that every word is perfect, but such people are very unpopular with their bosses, are easily ignored by leaders and colleagues, and cannot find a sense of belonging and identity in the workplace. People usually think that if they finish the work assigned by their boss, they have successfully completed the task and done their duty. But in today's highly competitive workplace, it's not enough to just do your duty. Demand yourself with high standards and do everything the boss thinks of and does not expect. Only then will the boss look at you differently, and opportunities will favor you more.
4. "Working overtime is the only way to be dedicated and dedicated"
"Every effort will be rewarded" is a workplace creed that everyone believes in. For this reason, Kaifu Lee once insisted on sleeping three hours a day. , and also competed with colleagues on "who can reply to emails in time in the early morning"... and tried hard to use "desperate" as a label for himself. But this kind of persistence at the expense of health is gambling with one's own life. When you don’t get enough sleep, you will find that your analysis and thinking abilities are also declining, and your work efficiency is also conceivable. To be dedicated to your job, you must first ensure quality and quantity, complete work efficiently and quickly, rather than fighting fatigue.
5. "Attitude determines everything"
Attitude alone is not enough. A good attitude is just the beginning. To measure the quality of a person's work, you can't just look at the attitude, but also the action. and results. The quality of a simple attitude can at most only indicate a person's motivation for doing things. There are many people in life who "do bad things with good intentions". There are many factors that determine "everything", and attitude is only one part of it. Don't just look at attitude and ignore the others. Attitude cannot be responsible for "everything". If the role of attitude is over-exaggerated, people will be encouraged to express their opinions one after another, and few people will actually do anything practical.
6. "What I am born with will be useful"
This sentence overemphasizes personal talent and ignores acquired hard work. Even if you are a shining piece of gold, but in the fall When it is covered with dust or buried, the light will disappear immediately, and it may even look no different from an ordinary stone. Gold that can shine not only has high purity, but also can meet people who know the gold. Talents like gold should not think that because they are not light, they will naturally be favored by others. Instead, they must have the courage to show their talents and let others see your value.
7. "Looking good is of no use, the key is ability."
The fault of this poisonous vaccine is that it tells you not to pay attention to appearance. Beauty of the soul is of course important, and a person with a beautiful soul is more worthy of deep friendship than a person with superficial appearance. But when we strive to discover the beautiful souls of others, do we have to pay no attention to our own appearance? In the workplace, dressing appropriately can make leaders and partners feel pleasing to the eye, realize your focus on details, and trust you more. Beauty is not everything, but not paying attention to appearance is absolutely impossible.
8. "Thank you to those who have hurt you"
Why should you thank those who have hurt you? This "poisonous vaccine" is full of self-abuse, just like the old generation often taught us to "repay evil with kindness" and "to be patient in everything". We should not be grateful for the hurt, nor should we forgive those who hurt us wantonly. We only need to learn from the hurt and not fall in the same place. Life is short, why carry the burden of past hurts with you?
