Chapter 34 people are passionate

A recruiting officer of Microsoft Corporation once told reporters: "From the perspective of human resources, the 'Microsoft people' we are willing to recruit should first of all be a very passionate person: passionate about the company, passionate about technology, and passionate about work. Passionate. Maybe in a specific job position, you may also wonder why you recruit such a person: He is not deeply involved in this industry, and he is not very old, but he has passion. After talking with him, you Will be infected, and I am willing to give him a chance." People who do not have a positive attitude will not get good opportunities in the workplace, and they are often not easy to infect others and get accepted by their communication partners in life.Who wants to deal with a listless person all day?

Some people say that whether you are active or not is related to the environment, is it true?There have been experiments like this in psychology: The experiment consisted of looking at a picture of a group of teenagers digging in a swampy area.One subject described this picture when he was in a good mood: "It seems that everything is very interesting, it reminds me of summer, working in nature is a real enjoyment of life, an incomparable Pleasure, digging in the mud, planting, and watching the plants develop and grow, is the supreme reward for the laborer." The same picture, the same subject, in his melancholy state, described it this way: "Life is an endless drudgery. Such a dirty and heavy physical labor for such a small child. There is no human touch in this world, what are their parents, our society doing? There are obviously more interesting things for children at this age. This is really a terrible black land."

This is the same picture, and the same subject, when he was feeling anxious, he described it like this: "I am really worried that these children will hurt their hands and feet. This kind of work should be done by older people. .Once an accident happens, I really don't know what kind of tragedy it will lead to. Look, the water in the swamp next to me is probably not shallow. If the child accidentally slips..." It is intriguing that the same person, in different emotional states, can have such different reactions to the same thing.In fact, things are still the same thing, the only difference is the emotion and mentality.From this point of view, the significance of the environment does not lie in the environment itself, but in the interpretation and understanding of the environment.

In many cases, we can get a whole new feeling just by slightly adjusting our mentality and viewpoint to put it in a good state. There is only a small difference between people, but it often makes a huge difference; the small difference is whether the mentality is positive or negative, and the big difference is success or failure.Therefore, in life, we often hear some people complain that their environment does not create the necessary conditions for his success.In fact, the impact of the environment on people often does not lie in the environment itself, but in our perception of the environment.How we treat life, life will treat us; how we treat others, others will treat us.

Everyone is in a certain social environment and natural environment. For a long time, we have been accustomed to think that the environment restricts us.In fact, what really restricts us is not the environment, but our mentality.On the road to success, whether you have a good attitude will directly affect your understanding of things around you. Differences in mentality and emotions will directly affect a person's understanding of things.Different people have completely different perceptions and reactions to the same thing.Even for the same person, the understanding and reaction to the same thing in different states of mind are quite different.

In fact, how the state of mind determines to a large extent the success or failure of our lives.Mentality can be divided into positive attitude and negative attitude.Positive attitudes unleash their potential and attract wealth, success, happiness, and health; negative attitudes repel these things, take away everything from life, and keep people at rock bottom for life, dragging them down even when they climb to the top. A positive attitude is characterized by confidence, hope, honesty, love, and practicality; a negative attitude is characterized by pessimism, disappointment, low self-esteem, hypocrisy, and deceit.

Always working with the best mental state can not only improve personal work performance, but also bring many unexpected results to success. Mike is the manager of a car dealership.His store, one of a chain of 20, is thriving, and the employees are enthusiastic and proud of their work. But that wasn't the case before Mike came here.At that time, the employees were tired of the work here, and even thought the work here was extremely boring. Some people in the company were planning to resign, but Mike infected them with his high spirit and made them work happily again. Mike is the first to arrive at the company every day, greets the employees who come one after another with a smile, and arranges his work on the schedule one by one.In short, he tried his best to work for the company with all his enthusiasm.

Under his influence, the whole company became aggressive and its performance rose steadily.His spirit changed everything around him, so the boss decided to spread his way of working to other chain stores. Those who meet the challenges of work with full energy and develop their talents with a positive attitude every day can fully explore their potential. Stephen Covey once warned us that mentality is the most magical force in the world.A positive attitude with love, hope, and encouragement can often lift a person to a higher place; conversely, a negative attitude with disappointment, resentment, and pessimism can destroy a person.Therefore, we must maintain a positive attitude.
