1. Job-hopping

A said to B: "I want to leave this company, I hate this company!"

B suggested: "I raise both hands in favor of you to take revenge on this broken company. You must give it some color. But it's not the best time for you to leave now."

A asked: "Why?"

B said: "If you leave now, the company's loss is not big. You should take advantage of the opportunity in the company to try your best to attract some customers for yourself, become a person in charge of the company, and then take these customers to leave the company suddenly, and the company will There will be significant losses, very passive.”

A thinks what B said is very reasonable, so he works hard. As expected, after more than half a year of hard work, he has many loyal customers.

When we meet again, B asks A: "Now is the time, you have to act quickly!"

A smiled lightly: "The boss has talked to me for a long time, and he is going to promote me to be the assistant to the general manager. I have no plans to leave for the time being." In fact, this is also the original intention of B. A person's job is always just for their resume. Only when you give more than you get, and let the boss really see that your ability is greater than your position, will you have more opportunities to create more profits for him.

2. Father and son riding a donkey

The father and son led the donkey into the city. On the way, someone laughed at them: "It's so stupid, don't ride a donkey!"

The father asked his son to ride on the donkey. After walking away, someone said, "What an unfilial son, he even let his father walk!"

The father quickly called his son down and rode himself on the back of the donkey. Someone said, "What a cruel father, not afraid of exhausting the child to death!"

The father hurriedly asked his son to ride the donkey as well. Who knows that someone else said: Two people riding on the back of a donkey are not afraid of crushing the skinny donkey to death?

The father and son quickly slipped off the back of the donkey, tied the donkey's four legs, and carried it with a stick. When crossing a bridge, the donkey struggled down because he was uncomfortable, and fell into the river and drowned!

The big truth: A person must have an independent opinion and the ability to judge right and wrong, so that he will not be swayed by the opinions of others. Don't live in the public opinion of others, walk on your own feet and think with your own head.

The big truth: Don’t blindly complain about the inconveniences the environment brings to people. In fact, the environment itself exists objectively. Anyone in that position will encounter the same problems. Smart people will try their best to reform it.

3. The three best teachers

In 1960, Dr. Rosenthal of Harvard University performed a famous experiment at a school in California.

At the beginning of the new term, Dr. Rosenthal asked the principal to call three teachers into the office and said to them: "Based on your past teaching performance, you are the best teachers in this school. Therefore, we have specially selected 100 teachers who are the best teachers in the school. Smart students form three classes for you to teach. These students have higher IQs than other children, and I hope you can make them achieve better grades." The three teachers happily said they would do their best.

The principal again told them to treat these children as usual, and not let the children or their parents know that they were specially selected. The teachers agreed.

A year later, the grades of these three classes rank among the top of the entire school district.

At this time, the principal told the teacher the truth: these students are not the best students deliberately selected, but the most ordinary students randomly selected.

The teachers did not expect this to happen, and they all believed that their teaching level was indeed high.

At this time, the principal told them another truth, that is, they were not the best teachers in the whole school that were specially selected, they were just random teachers.

The big truth: There are no geniuses in the world. The so-called genius is to rely on their own efforts to discover their inner potential and change their destiny. Those who are not geniuses just keep their potential hidden.
