Outside the window, the rain knocked on the glass window, and I sat quietly at my desk, frustrated, remorseful, and a little unwilling and unwilling to lose. I have been lying flat for several days in a row, constantly making excuses and excuses for myself, telling myself over and over again: "You are an ordinary person, a very ordinary woman." "Day by day, minute by minute, the clock stops from the future, but I have a sense of time stillness because I keep living the same day over and over again.
A voice in the trance was talking to me: "The day before yesterday, yesterday, today, you are living in such chaos, do you want to go on like this?" Tomorrow, tomorrow's tomorrow, until death. "No, it's not the life I want. I was going to change, and I'd better act now, I opened my computer and saw the movie "Legend 42" in my eyes.
Douban score of 8.0 points, although not high, but definitely worth watching, the film is adapted from the famous baseball player Jack Robinson's deeds. Although slavery in the United States had been abolished for a long time, there were still many areas that still practiced racial segregation, and Robinson, as a black baseball player, was full of love for baseball games, enduring insults and provocations from outside white people, but through his own efforts, he finally won the game in the No. 42 jersey.
After watching the film, I feel very deeply, I want to break through the ordinary people's life, I want to laugh to the end in the workplace, these three points you must know!
1. Firm original intention, brave to be yourself, not moved by the outside world
The philosopher Aquinas said, "If the will is to have the power of law, it must be subject to receptive moderation when reason calls for orders." ”
As a black baseball player, Robinson was born hot and did not have the opportunity to participate in the baseball league. Fortunately, he was recognized and supported by boss Ricky and entered the White American Professional League. From the day he joined the team, he endured insults and pressures from coaches, teammates, opponents, spectators, referees and even hotel porters, and was aggrieved and angry in his heart, but with the help of boss Ricky and his wife Rachel, he overcame his demons and finally conquered everyone with talent.
As the saying goes: "Whoever does not speak behind his back can not be said." In the workplace, I am accustomed to deceitfulness, one second with you as a sister, the next second to pull you as a cushion back; take the position to bully you, and even label you as a "good old man" bully until you are conquered.
In this case, try to abandon your bad habits, ask yourself more about why you are fighting, be brave enough to be yourself, do not yield, do not blindly follow, just be the unique self, just like Robinson, with the win to conquer the outside world's bandits.
2. Meet a good leader or coach, cherish it and live up to the trust
Jack. Welch once said: "A first-class CEO is first and foremost a coach, and a great CEO is a great coach." ”
Robinson's success was due to the fact that he met the right person, his boss Blanche. Ricky. As an outstanding professional manager, he is good at digging and cultivating talents, whether it is when Robinson is besieged by white players or facing various dilemmas in life, Ricky is unconditionally trusting him, supporting him, encouraging him, and is the hero behind the scenes who helped him achieve brilliant results.
In the workplace, we cannot choose our own leaders, but we must have the ability to distinguish the type of leadership, grasp the boundaries of getting along with the leader, and judge whether the leader is cultivating you or squeezing you through specific work examples. Excellent leaders put the needs and feelings of employees first, will put themselves in the position of empowering subordinates to grow, provide resource support when necessary, and when they encounter such good leaders, they must cherish and live up to the trust.
3, want to change, from now on, not tomorrow
There are two sentences in the film that are very shocking:
"We only win if the world agrees on two things, and that's that you're a gentleman and a good baseball player," Ricky said. Just like our God, you have to have the guts to punch him in the face. ”
Robinson gained everyone's respect with his actions and changed everyone's perception of black people. At the end of the film, he says, "We can change the world, but we must refuse to be changed by the world." ”
In life and work, we always envy the excellence of others, but we also habitually ignore the efforts behind others, and always fantasize about success. You know, without day-to-day continuous cultivation, where is the brilliance in front of people; only want to change, but never put into action, can only stop in the fantasy stage; or, often tell yourself, start tomorrow, tomorrow is so much!
The real desire to change is not tomorrow, but now, to take your actions, is now. #凌云观职 #
May you and I be pampered by the world, keep aware and act, and make every day alive!
