How to do better?
Nowadays, although there are rapidly changing scenes everywhere, it provides people with many opportunities to develop their lives and careers. However, influenced by society, many people also breed a kind of laziness, mental slack, idleness and disdain for everything, so you are the only one who will suffer in the end. They believe that in this era, it is natural for bosses to seek self-realization, self-development and start their own businesses, but they forget that only a sense of responsibility can realize personal value, and only conscientious people will be valued and promoted by others.

People who can't understand this are unfortunately caught in a misunderstanding that hurts them greatly. They are not bound, they are not strict with themselves, and they do not perform their duties seriously and responsibly. In the face of all post systems and company disciplines, they are all sneering at the post systems of all organizations and institutions, which are contradictory and suspicious. Treat work and responsibility with a cynical attitude in work and life. Be cynical about the work of one's own unit or company, and change jobs frequently if things don't go well. They can't work in a group without outside supervision. They shirked their responsibilities and stood still. They can't take any work seriously, so that the years are wasted and their careers are empty. What about seeking self-development, improving the realm of life, changing the situation of life and realizing the dream of life?

Life will always return to everyone, whether it is honor or wealth, provided that you change your thinking and understanding and strive to cultivate your conscientious work spirit. Only when a person has the spirit of due diligence can he have the power to change everything.

The bottom line of work is hard work. Change your attitude and try to cultivate your courage and sense of responsibility. You will be a winner in work and life. If you want to do it, do it better, and if you don't want to do it, don't do it-a responsible person can turn humble into great, and a person who lacks responsibility will turn lofty work into humble.

A long time ago, a rich man was going on a long trip. Before he left, he gathered his servants and entrusted them to keep their property. According to the ability of each of them, he gave the first servant twelve taels of silver, the second servant five taels of silver and the third servant two taels of silver. The servant who took twelve taels of silver used it to do business and earned twelve taels of silver. Similarly, servants who received five taels of silver also earned five taels of silver. But the servant who got two taels of silver buried it in the ground.

After a long time, the shopkeeper came back to settle accounts with them. The servant who took the twelve denarii brought another twelve denarii. The host said, "Well done! You are confident in many things. I'll put you in charge of more things. Now go and enjoy your reward. "

Similarly, the servant who got five taels of silver also came with another five taels of silver. The host said, "Well done! You are a man full of confidence in something. I'll put you in charge of many things. Now go and enjoy your reward. "

Finally, the servant who took two pieces of silver came. He said, "Master, I know that you want to be a strong man and harvest the unseeded land. I was scared, so I buried the money underground. " The host replied, "lazy and slutty man, since you know that I am going to harvest the unseeded land, you can deposit the money with the banker, and when I come back, I can get my share of interest, and then give it to that person with twelve taels of silver." I want to give it to those who already have a lot to make them richer; And for those who have nothing, what they have will also be deprived. "The servant thought he would be appreciated by his master, because he didn't lose the two pieces of silver given by his master. In his view, although the money didn't increase in value, it didn't lose money, even if the task given by the master was completed. However, his master doesn't think so. He doesn't want his servants to let nature take its course, but he wants them to take the initiative and become better.

Don't be satisfied with ordinary work performance. Only by doing better can you become an indispensable person. "There is no best, only better" is the slogan of Philips, and it is also the philosophy of every Philips employee.

For us, letting nature take its course is mediocrity. Why do we always choose mediocrity when we can choose better? If you can create a day outside a year, why not use these 365 days? Why can we only do what others are doing? Why can't we transcend mediocrity?

There is also a basic principle for work, that is, "if you want to do it, do it better, or don't do it." This is similar to someone saying, "If you can achieve 100%, you will never achieve only 99%". As a designer of a large construction company, Zhao Jing often goes to the workshop, looks at the construction site, and modifies the engineering details for different bosses. It was extremely hard, but she still worked hard without complaining. She made a rule for herself-"Do it well if you want, and don't do it if you want".

Once, the boss arranged for her to make a design plan for a client for only three days. After receiving the task, Zhao Jing finished watching the scene and began to work. For three whole days, she spent in a state of extraordinary excitement. She can't eat well or sleep well, and her mind is full of thinking about how to make a good plan. She looked up information everywhere and humbly asked others for advice. Three days later, she handed the design to her boss, who gave her a positive response. Thanks to his hard work, Zhao Jing is now the star of the company. The boss not only promoted her, but also tripled her salary.

Later, the boss told her, "I know the time is tight for you, but we must make a design plan as soon as possible." If you give up this job because of this, I may quit you. You did a good job, and I admire people who work hard like you the most! "Any boss is very smart, and they all want to have more excellent employees. And work attitude can best reflect whether a person's character is excellent or not. The boss will decide who to give a promotion or raise according to the employee's usual performance at work. Never give up the idea of "how much you get and how much you do". Take salary as an example. You took a thousand dollars and made a thousand dollars. On the other hand, what we have done can only get 1000 yuan, because the boss can't find a reason to give you a raise. If you take 1000 yuan and make 1 10,000 yuan, you will naturally get a raise.

Therefore, for every employee, it is necessary to establish the working concept of "do better if you want to do it, and don't do it if you want to do it". For any work, it is natural for us to take 1000 yuan 1 10,000 yuan.

Everyone should do it according to this principle, and we can't divide the work into three or six categories and treat it differently. In the Buddhist temple, Su Dongpo, a college student who was meditating with Zen master Fo Yin, suddenly asked, "What do you think of my meditation?"

"Like a Buddha!" Fo Yin said.

"What do you think of the way I sit?" Fo Yin was very happy to see Su Dongpo and asked:

"Like a pile of cow dung." Su Dongpo said.

Fo Yin knew that Su Dongpo took the opportunity to "mock" himself again, and he didn't care. He just laughed without saying a word.

Su Dongpo thought he had won Fo Yin, and when he got home, he told his sister Su Xiaomei happily.

Su Xiaomei said seriously, "My heart is like a Buddha, so I look like a Buddha. Heart is like dirt, so people are like dirt. Brother, you really can't compare with the realm of Zen master Fo Yin! " Isn't work the same? The phase is born from the heart, and the environment is there. Your view of work is: no matter what work, if you look down on it, it will become low; If you regard it as noble, it will become noble-even if it is humble in the eyes of ordinary people. Because when you do this work with a high sense of responsibility, it will become noble because of your sense of responsibility and highly responsible actions. Responsibility and enthusiasm can make humble work noble. So Lincoln said: only humble people, no humble jobs.

A responsible person can turn humility into greatness, and a person who lacks responsibility will make lofty work humble.

Li Huali is an ordinary barber. His barber shop is also in the most inconspicuous place on the corner. But it's full of customers. The reason is simple: there is a very good barber here. He always cuts customers' hair the best. What does it matter if you can have a good hairstyle and a good mood and spend more time on the road? Not only that, his guests also recommended this barber shop to family and friends. Over time, Li Huali's barber shop became famous and became the leading barber shop in this city.

In this process, Li Huali recruited a group of young apprentices. Every time he teaches skills, Li Huali always remembers this sentence: Remember, you are responsible for every knife you cut. This sentence is also the first sentence that the master said to Li Huali on the day when he officially became an apprentice.

Because of this sentence, Li Huali's attitude towards work is almost paranoid. Once, a rich man came to the shop for a haircut. Li Huali told the other party that it would take about 40 minutes to cut the hair. The other party has no objection. However, when it was cut to 30 minutes, the customer suddenly received a phone call and had to leave immediately. Li Huali insists that you must cut your hair before you leave, otherwise it will affect the overall effect. The customer was very angry, but Li Huali refused to let him go, repeatedly stressing that he was responsible for his work. Customers have no choice but to stay in the shop for a haircut.

Six months later, the customer came again. He smiled and said to Li Huali, "Last time I delayed my business because I had a haircut here, I vowed never to have a haircut here again. However, it was later found that the effect of other barbershops was not as good as here. Now, my friends and I only recognize you as a barber shop. "

Do your job wholeheartedly, and the word-of-mouth effect is really great. Li Huali's sense of responsibility has won unanimous praise, and he has become an example for the hairdressing industry. If you judge only by feeling, it must be hard for you to think that such an honest, introverted and simple little person is actually a famous barber. Yes, he is small, plain-looking, without good eloquence or extraordinary intelligence. He was once considered by many people as "impossible to achieve great things." However, he has made proud achievements.

Personality can't determine your success, let alone your destiny. Let quality speak, especially responsible quality, which is a rare resource that everyone knows, but few people can bring it to the extreme. Quality is the cornerstone of success, which is not a groundless judgment. The survey shows that 90% excellent salespeople are not eloquent and sociable people. On the contrary, they are introverted and plain-looking, but they are all people with excellent quality and strong sense of responsibility without exception. When someone asks the secret of success, they just say, "This is my job. I just do my job. "

From humble to great, there is no industry definition and no ability obstacle. It depends on whether you are responsible or not.

It is a true portrayal of successful employees to work hard, devote themselves wholeheartedly, and do their work wholeheartedly and dutifully. People who work easily will never achieve real success in any field. If work is only used as a tool to make money, it will definitely be despised. Only through suffering can we achieve the greatest happiness and achievements in the world; Only through struggle can we succeed. It is of great significance to understand this point: for part-time workers, only doing their work wholeheartedly can not only create profits for the company, but also lay the foundation for their own development, thus achieving a win-win situation; For those who are struggling for their own career, they also need to do their best. Many successful people are like this.

"If you want to do it, do it better, or don't do it." This should be the working principle and attitude of everyone in the workplace. Countdown every day.

No matter what occupation a person is engaged in, he should do his duty wholeheartedly, which is not only the principle of work, but also the principle of life.

William Qian Ning said, "Labor can make people think. No matter what kind of occupation a person is engaged in, he should try his best to make continuous progress. Only in this way can the concept of pursuing perfection be deeply rooted in our minds. "

Ling Ye and Wujiang are two excellent employees of a large multinational company, both of whom are conscientious in their work. However, the difference between the two of them is that Ling Ye thinks that he has worked hard at home after completing his job dutifully, while Wujiang demands that he should strive for perfection in addition to his due diligence. Three years later, Wujiang became the department manager of this company, with a wider social scope, while Ling Ye was only a business executive.

In the company, many people think they have done well enough. Is that really the case? Is it really perfect? Did you really reach your maximum potential?

The creator endowed each of us with outstanding talents. Maybe you have talents in management, painting, writing comprehension and thinking. No matter what your characteristics are, don't hide yourself, but actively explore your talents and give full play to them.

In fact, in the face of fierce competition, you should constantly transcend mediocrity and pursue perfection. You need to set higher standards than others. When Tam wrote to Garcia, he set himself a higher standard than others: no shirking, no perfunctory, and doing his best. Such people are excellent people. They will not only do what others ask them to do, but also do it surprisingly perfectly.

No matter personal life or professional performance, you need 100% investment at any time to be expected to excel. 89%, 93%, or even 98% of the investment can't be amazing. At best, it can only accomplish the tasks specified in the work, which is not an inspiring goal. If you want others to notice your efforts, you should try to surpass yourself and surprise everyone.

"Whatever you do, you must go all out." Russell H. Conwell once said, "There is no other secret to success, but the performance of demanding oneself to the extreme."

Successful people will never be complacent with mediocre performance. No matter what they do, they will go all out to pursue perfection.

Ziggy Ziegler said: "Success is the ultimate exertion of ability."

John wooden also has a similar famous saying, "Success," he said, "is knowing that you have made all efforts to reach the final level you can reach."

Balzac, a famous French novelist, sometimes spends a week writing a novel, while some modern writers are still wondering where Balzac's fame comes from. Many people have done some bad work on the pretext of lack of time. In fact, according to their daily life, everyone has enough time to do the best work. If you form the habit of doing things perfectly, you will feel endless satisfaction all your life. And this is the watershed between winners and losers. Winners, no matter what they do, try their best and never relax; No matter what occupation a successful person does, he will never neglect it. In a certain city in America, a gentleman took a taxi to a certain destination. When the passengers got on the bus, they found that the car not only had a glamorous appearance, but also the driver was neatly dressed and the interior layout was very elegant. As soon as the car started, the driver enthusiastically asked if the temperature inside the car was appropriate. Ask him again if he wants to listen to music or radio?

There are also morning papers and current affairs magazines in the car. In front of it is a small refrigerator. If necessary, you can help yourself to the juice and coke in the refrigerator. If you want to drink hot coffee, there is hot coffee in the thermos. These special services surprised the office worker and he couldn't help looking at the driver. The driver's cheerful expression is like the warm sunshine outside the window. After a while, the driver said to the passengers, "There may be traffic jams on the road ahead, but there will be no traffic jams on the expressway at this time." Shall we take the expressway? "

After the passenger agreed, the driver said thoughtfully, "I am a person who talks about everything." If you want to talk, I can talk about anything except politics and religion. If you want to have a rest or see the scenery, I'll drive quietly and leave you alone. " From the moment he got on the bus to this moment, the frequent taxi passenger was full of surprises. He couldn't help asking the driver in front: "When did you start this service?" The professional driver said, "From the moment I woke up." The driver continued to talk about his awakening process. As usual, he always complains that work is hard and life is meaningless. But inadvertently, he heard the radio program talking about some attitudes towards life, to the effect that you will get what you believe. If you feel that life is not smooth, then everything that happens will make you feel unlucky. On the contrary, if you think today is a lucky day, then the person you meet every time today may be your noble person. From that moment on, he started a new way of life. At the destination, the driver got off the bus, went around to help the passengers open the door, handed in his business card and said, "I hope I can serve you next time." Therefore, the business of taxi drivers has not been affected by the economic recession. He seldom drives around the city empty, and his guests always book his car in advance. His change not only created a better income, but also gained self-esteem from his work. He really came out of mediocrity and went to Excellence.
