Life is going to have ups and downs

Writer Shee Chee Williams once said: "Life is a voyage. During the voyage, you will inevitably encounter strong winds from all directions. However, every gust of wind will speed up your sailing." Don't complain about life. We should be grateful for sudden storms, because they just remind us to keep our rudder steady on the voyage of life. The road of life is inherently full of ups and downs, with highs and lows. No matter how severe the wind and rain are along the way, there will eventually be a time when the weather will clear up.

On a very hot noon, the Buddha was walking through a forest when he suddenly felt very thirsty. So he said to Ananda who was accompanying him: "Do you still remember the creek we crossed not long ago? Go back there and get me some water." Ananda turned back to look for the creek, but Because a carriage had passed by before, making the stream very dirty, Ananda looked at it and thought to himself: "This water is not drinkable!" He went back and told the Buddha about the situation: "The stream has become very dirty. Please allow me to continue walking. I know that there is a river with very clean water a little further." However, the Buddha shook his head and firmly asked him: "No, Ananda, you have to go to that small river just now. Come back to get water from the stream." Ananda replied with a troubled expression, "Yes!" Then, with an unconvinced mood, he went back to the stream to get water. However, after walking a few steps, he thought: "Obviously the water quality has changed, why does Master have to let me waste my time and go in vain?" As a result, Ananda walked halfway, turned back to the Buddha, and then reluctantly Ananda asked: "Master, why are you so insistent?" The Buddha did not explain at this time and just insisted: "You can go again!" Ananda had no choice but to obey and continue towards the "dirty" stream. go ahead. When he came to the stream again, he was surprised by the changes in front of him, because the stream turned back to the clarity and purity it had when they first met, and all the yellow mud had flowed away. So, Ananda came back happily carrying water, dancing and kneeling at the feet of the Buddha, saying: "Thank you, you have taught me another great lesson: It turns out, 'Nothing in the world is permanent.' . ”

Life has its ups and downs. Even if there is a storm, there will eventually be calm moments. Just like the muddy stream in the story, there will be times when the turbid and fluctuating water will become clear and calm. If your life has always been calm, one day you will also feel tired, because on calm and windless water, you will have to exert more effort to row forward. At this time, you will long for a little wind to blow, no matter how strong it is, because smart people will use the power of the wind to speed up the sailing ship and reach the destination! When Ananda understands that "nothing is permanent," do we also share the joy of "sudden enlightenment"? The road of life will not always be a straight line. We will encounter turns, climbs and downhills. However, precisely because of these undulating hills, we have the opportunity to see the diverse and beautiful world from different angles.

If you are full of enthusiasm, opportunities will come to you.

As long as you maintain an optimistic and enterprising attitude, the frustrations and setbacks in life will be temporary.

A person’s attitude towards life will be reflected in all aspects of life. Just like an optimistic person, he must be optimistic about work and life; on the contrary, a pessimistic person’s life will be boring. , must be full of gloom. A food factory posted a recruitment notice, and many people got the news and rushed to apply. Before the assessment time came, it started to rain outside. At this time, workers who were rushing to load the goods into the truck ran in and asked the person in charge of recruitment for help, hoping to find a few applicants to help in the warehouse. The HR director then asked everyone, "Is anyone willing to help?" A bunch of people stood up one after another, showing their enthusiasm for service. They followed up, and everyone worked very hard to help move the goods onto the truck. After a while, the factory director came to the warehouse and found so many people gathered here. He immediately asked the person in charge to explain the reason, and the person in charge of recruitment told the truth. Unexpectedly, the factory director became furious and angrily shouted: "What a mess! Didn't I tell you that it will take some time before recruiting?" At this time, the applicants who were happily helping to move the goods heard what the factory director said, and many people They got angry on the spot and said, "So, aren't you lying to me? What kind of tricks are you doing!" They said angrily and angrily threw the goods in their hands everywhere, and a large group of people hurried out. At this time, the rain was getting heavier and heavier. Seeing the goods piled outside, the person in charge of the warehouse anxiously asked them for help and promised to pay them, but everyone remained unmoved. Only one person remained amidst everyone's laughter. down.

After the goods were moved, the man walked towards the gate without being paid. However, at this moment, the HR director suddenly ran over, held his hand firmly and said, "Congratulations, you have passed the company's assessment. Please start working tomorrow." The young man listened with his head full. When Wu Shui was wondering, he saw the factory director standing in front, nodding to him with approval and affirmation. While other interviewees in the story had a realistic "trading" mentality in order to apply for jobs, expecting certain gains after their efforts, the smart boss directly rejected those applicants with incorrect work mentality in just one sentence. who.

After all, when someone is asking for something, everyone will try their best to show their hard work. However, these people only care about their own selfish interests and do not think about others. Naturally, they will not give their best to the company in the future. Therefore, during this test process, the boss clearly saw the deliberate "attempts" of most people rather than the "enthusiasm" of service. In this way, it further highlights the young man's enthusiasm for helping others without asking for gain, and because of his enthusiasm for serving, he easily won the job opportunity. Have you ever been unable to find your ideal job? Why not stop first and take a good look at your mentality when applying for a job? If your heart is full of transactions, rejection, inferiority or arrogance, your face will definitely convey this message, so the interviewer will naturally shy away from you.

Therefore, when looking for a job, you might as well invest in "enthusiasm" and "positivity", and you will soon find the opportunity you want!
