These days, I read teacher Yu's prose collection "Cultural Journey" on the Internet, and I felt a lot. I have read many articles, and what impressed me the most is his "Letter Guest" which embodies "sincerity". The composition written by our students last time also reflected "sincerity", so I want to talk about my superficial views.
The Letter Guest is about my early life in the countryside. At that time, the means of communication was very backward, and the external communication mainly relied on a special profession: letter-seekers. Without letters, many villagers will not travel far. For a long time, the heavy footsteps of messengers were the link between the countryside and the city. What I want to say is that an old customer here once gave his daughter a HongLing to a customer, and he also wanted to give a gift to a distant relative, so he cut a narrow HongLing tie for the customer, which was nice. I didn't expect Shanghainese to send someone home with a message, saying that after receiving HongLing, I would like to see if there are small circles at both ends to prevent believers from cheating. This time, the old messenger stumbled, and his scandal immediately spread in four towns. The family members who asked him to bring things before are recalling doubts, as if everything in his family came from deduction. But his home is shabby and gloomy, and there is nothing of value. A little thing ruined the reputation of the old believer's life. The old believer's voice is unclear and his face is sad. He picked up the scissors to cut HongLing and stabbed himself in the hand. This is the result of not saying "sincerity", even if it is only once. That's what I want to say. In this world, if you want to stand tall in this world, please remember one sentence: everything is "sincerity" first!
There is a saying in the west: "He cheated everyone, and finally found out that he was cheated by everyone." Reputation is the maintenance and respect for rights and interests. Commitment is a kind of responsibility to oneself and a kind of hope to the other side. Breaking your word and breaking your promise, no matter who the object is, is a dereliction of duty. However, it is this uncertainty that shows a person's ideological and moral level. The ancients said: Because you keep your word, you will show your true character. "Words must be done, and actions must be fruitful", especially in the modern society with fierce competition. Commitment is the cornerstone of enterprise survival and development. Only by keeping promises and keeping promises can we win supreme reputation.
Zheng Zhouyong said that credit is property and credit is everything. Michael Greer also said that in all business transactions, credit is the first. Please see how Kate Pillar Company of America does it. This company is a global company that produces bulldozers and shovels. Its advertisement reads: "Anyone who buys our products, no matter where in the world, needs to replace parts, and we promise to deliver them to your door within 48 hours. If it cannot be delivered, our products will be given to you free of charge. " They are uncompromising. Sometimes, in order to send parts worth $50 to remote mountainous areas, they will use helicopters, which will cost as much as $2,000. Sometimes, if they can't deliver the parts to users within 48 hours on time, they will really give the products to users for nothing, as advertised. Because of their high commercial reputation, this company is still prosperous after decades. This is the benefit of paying attention to credibility to Kate Pillar. The development of Kate Piller and the prosperity of Kate Piller are inseparable from credibility. In other words, commitment is credibility, and the realization of commitment is directly related to the life and death of the enterprise.
The staff of another domestic bank also did a good job, stressing honesty and safeguarding the honorary title of Youth Civilization. They lived up to their reputation. When the reporter took out 1 100 yuan, he specially filled in 1000 yuan on the deposit slip and handed it in to window 2. The waiter warmly received them and refunded the extra 100 yuan. Something happened in Xiangtan Savings Office of Industrial and Commercial Bank of Jilin City. It is precisely because of the obscure and conscientious persistence of these ordinary bank employees that they have won the title of civilization, which is worth learning from each of us. This tells us that credibility should be accumulated by practical actions.
However, some companies shouted slogans loudly, but they repeatedly shirked their responsibilities when something really happened, which caused a very bad influence among the masses. A consumer went to a grand electric appliance store, publicly promised the consumer a "three-year warranty" and spent 820 yuan to buy a fully automatic washing machine. After only using 10 days, I found that the timer failed. When the consumer returned the washing machine to the store with a receipt and asked for a new one, the clerk's face showed an unhappy expression. She said it was impossible to get a new one, so she had to fix it for you. There is no repairman today, so you have to ship it back first and send someone tomorrow. As a last resort, the author had to ship it back and wait for someone to repair it at home. As everyone knows, after several rounds of repair, it still has no effect. It's really unbelievable. How can such a service and such a promise be convincing? This incident tells us that commitment is not just words, but actions. As Jing Daole Ikeda said, "Credit is rare and unstable. The credit accumulated in ten years of hard work is often lost because of temporary words and deeds. " This is also a lesson we will learn in the future!
Having said that, I can't help but think of a sentence in the Book of Rites: "You don't value gold and jade, but loyalty." This sentence was said by Wei Sheng in the Warring States Period. Weisheng once dated a woman under a bridge, but the river began to rise in the future. Therefore, he is faced with a dilemma: either insist on honesty and drown, or lose honesty to save his life. Weisheng finally chose honesty, stick to his post and did it. However, there is no shortcut to the pursuit of honesty, just like the old messenger in The Messenger, whose reputation was destroyed on that narrow silk belt all his life, and he has known him for most of his life. The wandering wanderer waited for his footsteps year after year. And he can only hide in the broken thatched cottage next to the mountain cemetery, losing sleep every night, unable to open his eyes in the dark, thinking about the pier, boats and shadows in a daze. People, remember that sentence:
