In your daily work, do you just immerse yourself in the sense of fulfillment that comes with immersing yourself in work, or do you pay more attention to what direction you are moving forward?
When preparing meeting materials, will you try to prepare all the content you may ask in advance, even if you extend your working hours until late?
After receiving a work task, will you spend a lot of time on preparation in order to pursue perfection, but you will not be able to take the first step?
Have you ever thought that what you perceive as the fulfillment of your work is really just your belief that it will not help you to accomplish your work goals, or even cause you to deviate from the right goal direction?
When you prepare the conference materials, have you ever thought that many of the seemingly important materials are actually unnecessary?
Instead of spending too much time and energy on the pursuit of perfection, it is better to set an accuracy goal of 80% and move forward steadily!
I once saw a saying that to find out if a person is suitable for friends, start with a meal together. It is said that with the subtleties can see a person's true feelings, a meal can glimpse the other party's many small habits of life, as well as the attitude to life.
Small habits at work are equally important, and the distance between ordinary employees and workplace elites may be only a few small habits.
Shinji Etsukawa, founder and chairman of Cross River, Surveyed 18,000 employees in 25 companies, conducted a research and analysis of 5% of elite employees and 95% of ordinary employees, found the difference between elite employees and ordinary employees in work habits, summarized a set of replicable and enforceable workplace elite work methods, and summarized them in the book "5% Workplace Elite Work Habits".
As long as you refer to the thinking and action of these 5% of the workplace elites, you can also continue to achieve work results in a short period of time, so that success can be continuously copied!
Nowadays, in order to implement the remote work system and adopt flexible working hours, more and more companies mainly evaluate the results of work. In other words, we have entered an era in which the fruits of labor are more important than the length of work.
How to better complete the work in a limited time is the problem we need to consider now.
- Content with the fullness of the work, I think that retrospective feedback is not necessary
- Worrying about real-time messages, replying to messages has become the purpose of the work
- Spend a lot of time and devote all your efforts to making huge and complicated materials
- Docking two in a row to complete the work feels fulfilling
- When a problem arises, think about a solution immediately, and don't look for the root cause of the problem
How many of the above work misunderstandings do you account for?
- Value a sense of accomplishment and work towards what you want to achieve
- It was felt that lessons learned from failure would lead to success next time
- Do not pursue perfection, set an 80% accuracy target, and move forward steadily
- Valuing replicable approaches
- Review the summary regularly and look for improvement points
- Gain more practical skills by accumulating practical work experience
- When the task is 20% complete, the opinion is solicited
- Stay accustomed to output
- Make a list of things to do the next day the day before
The above characteristics of elite employees, how many do you have?
From tomorrow onwards, choose one and give it a try! It's hard to change our mindset, but we can start by changing our actions a little bit, so that in the near future, we will have more choices and more opportunities.
Correctly understanding the goal, acting according to the goal, and ultimately achieving the goal are the important characteristics of elite employees, and it is also the change we need to make most at the moment.
