daily essay? The new revelation of "frog in the well"
Abstract: "Frog doesn't know how big the sky is, not" mistaken "but" unknown ",and" mistaken "and" unknown "are two concepts; ? If an enterprise does not have the adaptive concept, strength, ability, potential, etc., blindly "jumps out", develops by leaps and bounds, expands in multiple ways, manages industries that are not in line with its own characteristics and skills, and chooses an environment that is not suitable for its own development, it will only be ill-fated.
The idiom story of "sitting on a well and watching the sky" is well known, and is usually used to describe someone's limited knowledge and short-sightedness. But I think this story emphasizes that people should broaden their thinking and broaden their horizons at the same time, but ignores other factors and information worthy of attention. After analyzing this fable again, I feel that there will be more profound and practical enlightenment for enterprises and enterprise managers.
Let's look at the process of this story and analyze it:
A frog is sitting in a well, and a bird flies and lands on the edge of the well.
The frog asked the bird, "Where are you from?" (Analysis: The frog greets the bird and greets him politely. He doesn't take the water from his well for himself or drive the bird away. This kind of awareness of resource sharing and harmonious development is very good.)
The bird replied, "I flew from afar. I flew in the sky for more than a hundred miles, and I was thirsty. I came down to find some water to drink. "
The frog said, "Friend, don't talk big! The sky is only as big as the wellhead. Do you still need to fly so far? " (Analysis: Frog will discuss the differences between his own understanding of one thing and others' understanding of the same thing, which is a good gesture of communication)
The bird said, "You are mistaken, the sky is boundless and huge!"
The frog smiled and said, "Friend, I sit in the well every day, and when I look up, I see the sky. I won't make a mistake. " (analysis: due to environmental factors, frogs can only see the sky as big as the wellhead; In fact, the size of the sky is not closely related to the frog's survival. What is directly related to the frog's survival is that the frog can find and enjoy a water environment or a humid environment, such as a lake or well. As long as there is water in the ground, it is not the first question that the frog should know.
The bird also smiled and said, "Friend, you are mistaken. Don't believe it, jump out of the wellhead and have a look. " (Analysis: Frogs greet each other politely, are kind to birds, and communicate with each other in a friendly way, which lays a good foundation for birds to be willing to provide information and suggestions. In addition, we need to be clear about how frogs came to this well. One possibility is that they were born in this well and never went out. Another possibility is that this frog came to this well by instinct and natural force without knowing what "the sky" is, but the frog has never seen the sky. The former is more likely. In this case, the frog doesn't know how big the sky is, and it is not "mistaken" but "unknown". "Wrong" and "unknown" are two concepts)
The answer is that it should come out and see. But why "jump out"? Just to see how big the sky is?
The frog's purpose of jumping out to see is not to see how big the sky is, but to know that there must be many wells under the boundless world, even better than the well where he is now. You should know if your well will run out of water one day and have a sense of crisis; We should look for a better lake or well after jumping out, knowing that there is a well outside the well and there is a lake outside the well, and within the range of moving distance under the condition of ensuring that we can maintain our own life time, and further find and live in a water source, or a lake or well, where the water source is more abundant than this well and the water quality is more suitable for the survival and reproduction of frogs.
But when deciding whether to jump out immediately, it should also consider the jumping ability and environmental conditions. If the environment in the well and its jumping ability are impossible for it to jump out, it is unnecessary for it to jump now, otherwise the higher it jumps, the greater the possibility of injury. It should wait until there is more water in the well and it can jump out. If it can exercise, it can try to jump at the same time, otherwise it will only be tasteless waste and consumption. After the frog jumps out, if it doesn't find an environment suitable for its survival and reproduction than this well, it should go back to this well to maintain its life, reproduce and complete its mission after appreciating the beauty of nature and knowing how much information there is in the sky. Every animal has its unique natural function and plays a role in the biological chain of nature. If every animal wants to play a role in the biological chain, the premise is to form and have the life and reproduction ability of this animal group. The mission of frog should also be to reproduce life and become an unbreakable chain in the biological chain of nature, so its life cannot be without water. Well is a better place for frogs to live, because it can store and preserve water. For frogs, it should be concerned about water and lakes or wells that can be filled with water. Only with such water resources and water environment can it survive and realize its mission of reproducing life. Now, frogs choose and occupy an environment with more water resources than land and desert, which is a temporary wise choice.
Every enterprise has a mission, and it has to assume or play a specific economic identity or role in society. As an enterprise and its leader, from this fable, we should not only get the enlightenment of "limited knowledge and short-sightedness", but also have more important enlightenment:
1. Develop harmoniously, be kind to others and be good at communication. Only in this way can someone be willing to help themselves.
2. Always be clear about your mission like a frog in a well, and find and occupy an environment suitable for your survival, sustainable development and mission realization.
3. We should have the correct consciousness and methods of "jumping out": we can't jump out for the sake of "jumping out". Some people "jumped out" and went abroad for inspection. We have read a lot of foreign books, and we know how big the sky is, but we can only show off the "great scenery" we saw as the capital or symbol of our status. In addition, if an enterprise does not have the adaptive concept, strength, ability, potential, etc., blindly "jump out", develop by leaps and bounds, expand in multiple ways, operate an industry that is not in line with its own characteristics and skills, and choose an environment that is not suitable for its own development, it will only be run against luck; Appropriate "jumping out" should be driven by a sense of crisis, sustainable development and scientific development, choose the correct direction, opportunity and method of "jumping out", and apply the information learned after "jumping out" to the cause of scientific development, so as to achieve sustainable "jumping out", scientific development, harmonious development and optimized development.
daily digest? Is Pig Bajie a talented person?
Abstract: "The menial work, tiring work and dirty work, such as carrying dead people underground, which the Monkey King, an elite, is unwilling to do and disdains to do, are all owned by others. Besides, Bajie is broad-minded, and despite being teased by the Monkey King, he still maintains a good feeling and friendship with Wukong as a comrade and a brother "
When it comes to Pig Bajie, most people will have an ugly image of being lazy, flirting all day. To connect him with talents, I believe many people will shake their heads. However, Guanyin Bodhisattva chose Bajie from the tens of thousands of immortals in the upper eight caves and the lower eight caves, and made him an important person to learn Buddhist scriptures in the Western Heaven. It was indeed an eye for pearls.
People like the Monkey King can't be buried-whether you like it or not, people's skills are obvious there: going to heaven and going to earth to subdue demons, almost no one can beat them, and no one can deny or turn a blind eye. However, people like Bajie are not particularly outstanding in their skills, but they have many problems all over their bodies, so it is difficult to be found and reused in real life.
However, it is said that a website has conducted a survey, and among the Buddhist scriptures learning group led by Tang Priest, the most popular female netizens are neither Tang Sanzang, who is restless, nor the Monkey King, who is well-connected, nor the honest and honest sand monk, but this lazy and lustful pig Bajie! It's very rare that the Monkey King and Tang Priest lack worldly desires, and Friar Sand is too wooden and simple, so Bajie is quite human-in a sense, Bajie is one of us ordinary people and has affinity.
On the issue of treating Bajie, Guanyin Bodhisattva is really superior. Supposedly, people with criminal records who have had serious work style problems, like this, love to snitch, and are always clamoring to break up, even if they apply for ordinary staff, they will not be admitted. What's more, it is an important event that both heaven and the mortal world attach great importance to.
But Guanyin Bodhisattva had a unique eye and didn't kill Bajie with a stick: Before committing the problem of style, Bajie was a marshal of the canopy, and his kung fu was naturally extraordinary, and his kung fu in the water was even better than that of the elder brother the Monkey King. Although love takes advantage of small things, it really works without ambiguity. Rough work, hard work and dirty work, such as carrying the dead underground, are all the things that the Monkey King, an elite, is unwilling to do and disdains to do. Besides, Bajie is broad-minded. Although he was teased by the Monkey King repeatedly, he still maintained good friendship and friendship with Wukong. In the arduous and dangerous journey to the Western Heaven, we need both the Monkey King, who is skillful and bold, and a helper like Bajie, who is optimistic and can stand up at critical moments. This involves a talent standard problem. The ancients said: "The key to politics is to win people, and those who win people win the world." The first one is the determination of talent standards.
We often fall into such a misunderstanding: or only talk about diplomas, regardless of any unit or position, I wish everyone would require a bachelor's degree or above. Even if you have the ability to cross the sky, if you don't have that small notebook, you can't go in; Or a blind eye, demanding perfection, picking your nose and picking your eyes, not being short, not talking about being ugly, making talents at a loss, so they have to sacrifice their personality and focus on pleasing leaders and colleagues. However, without personality, creativity will be lost.
Guanyin Bodhisattva knows the truth that "red flowers deserve green leaves". In a unit, there must be both strategizing decision-makers and down-to-earth maintenance technicians. Therefore, when seeking Buddhist scriptures in the Western Heaven, Guanyin Bodhisattva did not blindly demand that her skills be as great as Wukong's and her personality be as impeccable as Sanzang's. In that case, first, it is difficult to form this group, and second, even if it is barely formed, it is not enough for these people to have internal friction-their skills are comparable. Why are you the master elder brother and I am behind you? Why should I carry the burden and you lead the horse instead of you?
This shows that the discovery and use of talents requires insight and "prime minister measurement", and it is impossible to open a shop in Wu Dalang. Of course, blaming talents for not being perfect does not mean letting themselves go. A beautiful woman like Bajie is enough to get rid of a weak-willed person. She needs not only the "magnanimity" of leaders and colleagues, but also some "alternative" lifestyles and personalities that do not violate morality and law, and also a strong supervision and restraint mechanism. Therefore, in addition to master Tang Yan's incessant indoctrination of sex education every day, Wukong often beats him, and even the silent sand monk complains and accuses him twice when Bajie's performance is extremely poor. At the critical moment when Bajie can't keep the bottom line, someone always gives him a hand, so that the problem can be found and solved in time, and the small ant nest will not cause piping or even burst its banks.
It should be said that Bajie finally achieved positive results, and the bold use of Guanyin Bodhisattva and the criticism and supervision of comrades played a decisive role-otherwise, Bajie might still be his monster in Gaolaozhuang, disturbing social order.
