Ordinary and mediocre, one word, but are two of life.
A lot of people said extraordinary valuable, not knowing, quietly lived a life of mediocrity.
Yes, who would be willing to admit mediocrity it?
Film "The Young and Prodigious Spivet" There is one line I like: Beware of mediocrity, it is the mind of the mold, we must always battle with them, otherwise it will interfere with every thing we do.
Because a "mediocre", which is like a portable virus.
People work hard, think ahead, was simply trying to get rid of the label "mediocrity" of.
But whether you are willing to admit that the following three aspects are exposed to your mediocrity.
The lack of independent thinking
The so-called others, and the lack of independent thinking is probably the best explanation.
Maslow There is a saying: When you have got a hammer and nails to see all the things that are; when you have got a nail to see that all things are a hammer. "
This sentence can have many explanations, but to say that there is a single way of thinking.
Whenever life on a point or network conditions occur, something not yet clear, it is the first to stand in line for the King, and then start screaming, the eight hundred years ago in the set theory, then chew again listening to each other.
They do not want to hear or think you are wrong, your first reaction is to call back, maybe I just shout win it.
The world is not black and white, is not the only opposition, fighting for those who act as opinion leaders concerned about the risk of heart the more barren.
One of the hallmarks of human growth, is more cautious and aware of your words that represent who you are, should always update their knowledge, but also the time responsible for the others.
Extreme point, said, parroting not pursue independent thinking, it is irresponsible.
Runs the risk
Before a lot article analyzes that live near people from the company, pay faster. There are several reasons for this, first, to save the expense and time of a lot of traffic. Second, to ensure the safety and well-being. Third, more opportunities for self-enhancement.
Many young people because they are in the big cities, near the company that rents are too high, can not afford, and the choice of more distant house. Then start thirty-four hours a day commuting, slept at the wrong bus stop is often the thing, until the company has been physically and mentally exhausted.
4 hours per day, that is 88 hours a month, a year is 1056 hours on the road.
Many people also know time is precious, so be prepared to learn on the subway, reading, make good use of it for more than a thousand hours, but the result is often not seen for 3 minutes on the storm's not. Crowded subway, stand firm, has been difficult.
Really smart people, will not waste their time, but will spend money on time, take advantage of compounding time of greater effectiveness and results.
This is, in fact, many workers old world will forget.
Spend too much time on non-strategic objectives, wasted little time thing, consumption morale thing. Always remember your "big", that is the ultimate goal, where. Try to go straight, to avoid wandering on a small fork, a waste of time, loss of morale.
Because the money will not make you more money, the investment will be. The time and energy spent on things that can add value in the future in order to make themselves more valuable.
Hard to cover up with a tactical strategy laziness
Of course, good hard, just hard Bite your tongue.
Reading, we can distinguish the kind of person who assiduously every day, the lights have to hide in bed holding a flashlight recite English words back, never play during recess, the teacher's writing on the blackboard copied a stack of notebooks, textbooks are fast dog-eared, a test, the result was not ideal, then struggled with vigor, that he is still not enough hard work.
Reading, we will laugh at this silly. But after work, we tend to forget that once an object of ridicule, even he himself was unknowingly become such a person.
For example, we know almost had a very interesting answer:
Founder and CEO most clearly in his thought how to do or see the road that they will choose and got into a lot of details to execute the transaction. How much of it carries an "I want to play me at the implementation level to cover my incompetence on the strategy and positioning," and or "I did not understand it does not matter, but you can not let the brothers I did not see it see "mentality.
As another example, a day in the circle of friends thumbs up, forwarded on the microblogging. I am thinking that this is hard work, but the fact is that " when you can not be converted to the value of hard work, your hard work is the only low-end hard. "
Again, the choice is more important than the effort. Do the right thing, doing things right.
I think the above is the most desirable, will make people living longer and mediocre 3 details.
"Tree Grows in Brooklyn," the book has such a Reminders:
Even in poor years, can not lose longing for a happy, those who dream to get rid of mediocre always prepared our simple life, simple embellishment hope for our time. We can not always say that to be more creative, but always have a heart to appreciate and cherish.
Please reject mediocrity, mediocrity since a long time, really addictive.
