The founder of microscope used to be just a lens grinder. He has polished his lenses for most of his life, so he is skilled. Once, he was idle and put his lens in front of him, and suddenly he saw a magical world, that is, the world of microorganisms. The world was first shown to the world through the lens. Since then, scientists have begun to study the world and made numerous scientific and technological achievements that benefit all mankind.
Although his name is not a household name, his deeds will always be engraved in my heart. He didn't think that he had made such achievements in a whimsy, just because he always pursued Excellence in grinding lenses.
when the foreign craftsmen are finished, let's talk about a famous craftsman in modern China, that is, Bao Qifan, the king of grab bucket with the honorary title of great country craftsman. Why should I talk about him? Because he once came to our school and gave a speech. Through the speech, I found that he is a fat man with "around" and "Mediterranean" hairstyle. He is not tall, handsome or white. How did such an ordinary person become a great man today? That's because before he was famous, when he was working at the dock, he always witnessed scenes of dock workers being smashed, killed and injured by goods. He learned that these workers are dockworkers forced to make a living, even though the job is full of dangers. Every year, there are many unfortunate workers in various docks around the world. While sympathizing with the dock workers, he began to think about how to make the workers work more safely, safely, happily and easily. With the idea, he also started to act with knowledge. He once chased a car for more than 1 meters to catch an inspiration. He also visited the ballpoint pen factory in person in order to obtain the mechanical extension structure of the ballpoint pen. He impressed the factory with sincerity and finally got what he wanted. After repeated failures and overcoming numerous difficulties, he finally invented the bucket, which benefited all mankind. However, the most admirable thing is that although he won many awards and a lot of money and honors, he regarded fame and money as dirt, donated a lot of money and set up charitable funds and innovation invention awards. He also gave the patent to the motherland where he was born and raised for free, which shows that he is still a patriotic person.
Of course, there are countless great country craftsmen in our country. Many people who love their jobs and dedication can be called great country craftsmen, because they all have the ingenuity of striving for perfection and deserve our students' study and respect.

Madame Curie discovered radium, but it was really bitter. As long as you have read articles about her, you can feel her stubbornness and unyielding between the lines. I heard that she was a great beauty when she was young, but she devoted her youth to science. Her choice was proved by time and she was right.
Although I didn't go to senior high school, as a secondary vocational student, I have originality. My current status and occupation are students. Then keep improving and study hard. If you work in the future, you will strive for perfection and work hard. Excellence is an inspirational story with ingenuity. 2
Haixin is a very independent and courageous professional woman. As the operation manager of a large listed company, she not only assisted COO to integrate the resources of various departments and complete many important projects, but also led a lean working group-six members were either doctors or returnees, or they had accumulated 7 or 8 years of experience in the company, and they were basically older than Haixin.
Haixin described her work status at a lunch: "The usual work can't tolerate the slightest carelessness. The boss puts forward a difficult problem, and I always give him four or five solutions. When subordinates need support in various projects, I not only have to show a higher level, but also have to be careful about' a bowl of water is flat', or I have to listen to their complaints ... "I asked her," How do you feel about doing it all the time? " Haixin showed a lot of fatigue and worry: "I am particularly tired! Highly nervous! It should be done well, and if it is not done well, it will be a big mistake. "
A little tiger, wound up, appeared in front of my eyes, able to step on all the difficult problems and challenges. This is Haixin's impression in everyone's mind: everything can be done and things are particularly reliable. So, I tentatively asked her: "If you don't do some things well and some things can't be completed at present, what would you think of yourself?"
Haixin immediately shook his head: "Then I would be irresponsible and disappoint my boss's expectations, and I would lose my prestige in the team ..." "Is that true?" I drew two States on a piece of paper: one is that 1% of things are done well and perfect! One is that some things are only 9% completed, but they have done their best. There will be some improvement next time, and it may be 93% completed. Next time, it will be different, showing "continuous progress".
I asked Haixin, "Which one do you think is' responsible'? Which kind of' responsible' state is more flexible and more motivating? " Haixin's frowning brows relaxed a little, and mused, "The first one is my normal state. I should do it well. If I can't do it, I will be particularly anxious and blame myself." The second one has not been considered before, and perhaps it can be allowed in the future. "
I nodded with a smile: the first state is perfectionism, and the second state is Excellence. The energy of the two is very different-perfectionists have high expectations for themselves and others, and they always see "unrealized" and "unfinished" places, and they will be disappointed and blamed for themselves and the people around them; With "reasonable expectations", people who strive for perfection always see themselves and others improve little by little and achieve "tiny goals" one after another, and often express their appreciation and affirmation to themselves and the people around them.
Seeing that Haixin's anxious look has eased a little, I asked her with a smile, "How would you feel if you faced a perfect boss?" "I feel pressure and distance." I continued to explore: "Then what do you want besides your boss's full support to get things done?" "I also hope that he will sincerely tell me what support I need, what he can't do at present, and what we can do together ..." Haixin's eyes suddenly lit up, and she "hey hey" smiled: "This is the way my boss treats me now, which not only inspires my sense of responsibility, but also makes me feel particularly tacit in working with him."
Awareness moment
Everyone has an "ideal and perfect me" in his heart. How to treat the gap between "realistic me" and "ideal me"? Is constantly blaming yourself-why can't you always do it well? Why is there such a big gap? Is it constantly judging-there is still a gap of 15 meters, a gap of 13 meters, and a gap of 1 meters ... or constantly appreciating yourself-quite good, and it has advanced by 5 meters; Not easy, steady, not falling; It's great, and it's improved by 1 meters quickly.
There are many "perfectionists" in the workplace. They have high demands on themselves, which are often higher than others' expectations. Naturally, they also express their "reasonable expectations" to the people around them. As a result, "perfectionists" often face anxiety, disappointment and complaints. It seems that they are often directed at others, but in fact they are more directed at themselves. The "perfectionist" will appreciate the process and results achieved by himself and others, and even if there is still room for improvement, he will regard it as the next improvement direction, so that joy, longing and sense of accomplishment will always surround people's hearts.
Dear friend-
A hard-working and guilty perfectionist or a relaxed and happy perfectionist, which would you prefer? If you are a perfectionist, what can you keep and adjust your expectations? If you are a leader of "Excellence", always take stock of what you and others have achieved. What needs further improvement? How can we cooperate better and try some different ways? Excellence is the inspirational story of ingenuity. 3
Once upon a time, there was a little carpenter who went out to work. It's autumn, so I have to go home for autumn harvest. After a few months, I was busy working all day and earned a lot of money. But my hair has grown very long, and I have to go home. I have to shave my head anyway. The little carpenter was walking with his own style, and he saw a barber stall. He saw a barber, fat in vain, with rough hands and feet, looking clumsy, wearing a white coat, sitting on a stool smoking, and looking very leisurely. It seems that there is no business yet.
The little carpenter thought it was right here to shave. Go to the barber, put down your pick, touch your shoulder, stretch your waist and say, "Master, business is good!" " .
The hairdresser quickly smiled: "It's okay to lend you good words. Do you want to shave your head?"
The carpenter said, "Yes, it's time to go home for autumn harvest. Let's get a haircut.".
"OK," said the barber, pouring hot water and greeting the guests to sit down. After the carpenter sat down firmly, the hairdresser carefully washed the carpenter's hair, unhurriedly made a razor and said, "Master hasn't had a haircut for three months."
The carpenter just counted, "Master has a good eye for three months, and a day is not bad."
Barber Fu Shuo said, "Hey, Master, I'm going to start shaving." Flying into the air with the penetrating cold wind, when it fell, I saw the barber, quick in hand and quick in eye, reaching out and firmly catching the barber knife, and cutting it at the little carpenter's head, which scared the little carpenter. "ah!" Before the sound came out, my scalp was cold, and then I heard a crack, and a strand of hair had been cut off. At this moment, the little carpenter just "ah" and just wanted to flash: "What are you doing?" . The barber pressed down with his fat hand and said, "Don't move." As he spoke, the knife spun and flew into the air. The little carpenter struggled hard to flash, but he was pressed tightly by the barber and couldn't move. Just then, the barber quickly picked up the spinning knife, and a wisp of hair fell to the ground with a crash. The little carpenter's face turned white and he couldn't break free, so he closed his eyes and thought, "This is over, it's a small life." I saw the barber shave his head one knife after another, three times five divided by two, and soon he shaved the little carpenter's head and took a look in the mirror. Hey, it didn't hurt at all, and the shave was bright.
At this moment, the little carpenter breathed a sigh of relief and woke up from the fright, but he was still shaking all over. Suddenly, a fly buzzed and landed on the tip of the barber's nose. The little carpenter was quick of hand and quick of eye, so he pulled out his pole from his pole, rounded it and cut it off according to the barber. This is when the barber was about to drive away the flies that landed on his nose with his hands. I saw the little carpenter with his hands together. I don't know what hit him, but I felt a flash in front of me and a gust of wind blowing in front of me. The barber was even more startled. Before he woke up, he saw that the little carpenter stretched out his head in front of him, only to see that the two wings of the upper half of the fly were still fanning, and the little carpenter took a mirror to show the barber a picture. The barber saw the other half of the fly landed on his nose and his two front legs were still stretching. It turned out that a living fly was split in half by the little carpenter's spear. After reading it, the two men laughed and admired each other's superb skills. Perfection is the inspirational story of ingenuity. 4
Some people just need to applaud and cheer, and they will constantly demand and train themselves without giving them any pressure. For these people, constant self-training and Excellence are their requirements for themselves.
Jordan has a famous saying that "practice is a game, and the game is a practice", so when he practices in a normal team, when the team divides the players into two groups to simulate the situation of the game, no matter which group Jordan is assigned to, the team he belongs to wins most, because when he practices the game in the team, he always tries his best to play, unlike other players who play it as a practice match.
However, during the NBA season, Jordan can relax and play. For him, he goes all out in every game. The more he reaches the playoffs or championship finals, the better he plays. On the other hand, other NBA players lose their usual level. The reason is that he is too nervous and suffers from loss, which highlights the difference between Jordan and other NBA players, so he can become the world's number one basketball player.
When you constantly study the world-class top people from all walks of life, you will find a * * * phenomenon, even if the industries are different and the knowledge fields are irrelevant; But the process of belief, values and efforts is very similar, that is, constant self-demand and self-discipline.
for them, the only challenge is not others but themselves, because they are already the best and top figures, and no one in the world can surpass them, and they regard themselves as their biggest competitors and constantly surpass me yesterday.
This is true for both individuals and enterprises. Intel Corporation, the leader in computer chip manufacturing, constantly develops CPU with faster speed and better performance every year to replace the CPU it made in the past, and always takes the lead in reducing the price, so that it can become the first enterprise in the field of CPU.
Google, Apple Computer and Microsoft are all like this. For them, besides other competitors, the biggest competitor in the market is themselves. Only by constantly surpassing themselves can they become the world's number one enterprise.
top people or enterprises in all walks of life are like this, so they can become the first in the world, but if they can't constantly demand themselves and surpass themselves, they won't become the top people or enterprises in the world.
Just like a newly assembled computer, a newborn baby must input software and data to play its role, and so can human beings. Only by instilling good ideas and values and making him become a belief, can he become an excellent and outstanding person. If the input is wrong, the information will not be correct.
If you read the autobiographies or biographies written by world-class figures, you will understand why they have become top figures, and then you will continue to strive for perfection, self-demand and self-discipline in your own industry and expertise. As long as you persevere, you will certainly achieve something.
