Why dare to challenge a difficult job?

Henry Ford once said, "I am always looking for people who have unlimited abilities and believe that nothing is impossible." Microsoft also favors "smart people" when recruiting. This kind of "smart person" is not an expert in a certain position when recruiting, but an employee who dares to work hard and challenge himself.

Today's society is fiercely competitive and full of opportunities and challenges. Affected by the general environment, the company's environment is always in trouble and competition. In this cruel environment, every company must always aim at growth in order to survive. To achieve this goal, employees must keep pace with the long-term plan formulated by the company. Only employees who constantly challenge themselves and strive for progress can truly achieve "consistency".

Therefore, for bosses, the employees they need must have the spirit of daring to challenge difficulties and "impossible" work.

Masayoshi Son, the founder of Japan Softbank Group, is known as the "Internet Investment Emperor". In fact, no one in the world, including Bill Gates, has more Internet assets than him. His investment in Internet assets such as Yahoo accounts for 7% of global Internet assets.

This short man, who is only 153 meters tall, made his own 50-year life plan when he was 19 years old. One of them is to earn at least10 billion dollars before the age of 40. Now, he is over 40 years old, and his dream has already come true. So, let's see how he used his wisdom to earn his first 1 ten thousand dollars:

When making the 50-year life plan, Sun Zhengyi was still a poor student studying in the United States, worried that his parents could not afford his tuition and living expenses. He had the idea of working in a fast food restaurant, but he was soon denied by himself because he was too far away from his dream. After careful consideration, he decided to learn from Panasonic and make money by creating inventions. So, he forced himself to keep thinking about various ideas. In a period of time, all kinds of inventions and ideas he conceived alone recorded 250 pages.

Finally, he chose a product that he thought could produce the most benefits-multilingual translator. However, the problem came at once: he was not an engineer and didn't know how to assemble the machine at all. But it didn't beat him. He asked many top professors in the field of small computers, told them his ideas and asked for their help.

Many professors rejected him, but in the end, a professor named Mosa promised to help him, and they set up a design team. At this time, Masayoshi Son faced another problem: he had no money. What shall we do? Difficulties still haven't defeated him. He managed to get the consent of the professors and signed a contract with them: after Sun Zhengyi sold the technology, he would give them research fees.

After the product was developed, Masayoshi Son went to Japan for sale. Sharp bought this patent and commissioned him to develop a translation machine with translation functions in seven languages, including French and Spanish. As a result, this business made him earn a whole 1 ten thousand dollars.

It can be seen that as long as a person opens the "brain machine" to solve problems, there will be miracles. The key to this miracle lies in changing the way of asking questions: changing the negative question "How is it possible" into a positive question "How is it possible!"

In the enterprise, although many employees are brilliant, they have various abilities to gain the appreciation of the boss; But they lack the courage to challenge themselves and just want to be cautious "safety experts" in the workplace. They dare not take the initiative to "attack" extremely difficult work, hiding again and again, thinking that they will not do anything wrong, will not be criticized by their bosses, and will not cause envy and dissatisfaction of others because of praise. In fact, such employees are dispensable in the eyes of the boss and will never get the opportunity of career development. "Brave in the workplace" and "coward in the workplace" have completely different positions in the boss's mind, so it is impossible to keep pace.

In fact, in the world we live in, nothing is fixed, and everyone may need to change their living environment, life role, lifestyle and life consciousness anytime and anywhere. If you always stick to a position, be content with the status quo, stop, rest on your laurels, be complacent about your achievements and not make progress; Then, we will lose the motivation to strive for the upper reaches and keep making progress, and we will not be able to put our ideals into practical action. At the same time, this stagnant life is also a retrogression, which will make you a frog in the well, unable to see a broader space, unable to achieve longer-term development, and will eventually be eliminated by enterprises. Therefore, every employee should constantly improve himself, dare to update his way of thinking, change his living conditions and adjust his pace of progress.

The boss of a company explained a life implication with a picture in the training class.

He first drew a picture on the blackboard: a man stood in the middle of a circle. Then, he added a car, a house and some friends to the circle.

The boss said to his employees, "This is your comfort zone. Things in this circle are important to you: your family, your house, your friends, your job. In this circle, people will feel comfortable and safe, away from danger or disputes. Now, who can tell me what will happen when you walk out of this circle? "

Suddenly there was silence in the office, and an active employee broke the silence: "I will be afraid."

Another said, "There will be mistakes."

At this time, the boss smiled and said, "When you make a mistake, what is the result?"

The employee who just started to answer questions replied loudly: "I will learn something from it."

The boss said, "Yes, you will learn from your mistakes. When you leave your comfort zone, you learn things that you didn't know before, and you increase your knowledge, so you make progress. "

The boss turned to the blackboard again, drew a bigger circle outside the original circle, and added some new things, such as more friends, a bigger house and so on.

"If you always wander around in your comfort zone, you will never be able to broaden your horizons and learn new things. Only by stepping out of the comfort zone can we enlarge the circle of life and shape ourselves into a better person. " The boss said.

In fact, life is a circle, and there is a fixed comfort zone in this circle. If you don't get out of this comfort zone, the circle of life can only be so big forever; Only by being enterprising and bravely stepping out of your comfort zone can you expand your life and make great progress in the enterprise.

In the west, there is a famous saying: "One's thoughts determine one's fate." Not daring to challenge difficult tasks is a firm description of one's own potential, and one can only turn one's unlimited potential into limited achievements. At the same time, ignorant knowledge will weaken your talent, because you act like a coward and don't deserve such ability.

A person's greatest enemy is not others, but himself. Only when one dares to face every challenge in life can one grow continuously. For every employee, if he always doesn't make progress, just likes to do simple things that don't require hard work, or is only satisfied with a little achievement, then his ability and level will only stay at one level and never get long-term development.

In fact, many times, it is often because of "height" that your work is not in place. This height often implies your subconscious: execution is impossible and there is no way to do it. "Psychological height" is one of the fundamental reasons why people can't implement it. Should I jump? Can you jump this height? Can I achieve it? These questions are all based on self-suggestion. So, if you can meet the challenge without fear, tell yourself, "I can do it!" " "Then, you will be as proud of your bravery as the people who implement it.

When challenging difficult jobs, employees should pay attention to the following aspects:

1 full of confidence

Self-confidence can help a person to establish correct thinking habits, and only self-confidence can inspire a person's spirit and courage to keep climbing in difficulties.

2 Never give up

A good boss, the person who decides whether you value you or not, will not only see the result after you challenge a difficult job, but also pay attention to your work attitude and the use of your mind. Besides, what you have experienced and gained will never be known by those who are always timid-because they dare not try at all.

Don't fight an unprepared battle.

Rushing into battle without preparation is likely to fail because of lack of support.

4 have a clear goal.

If there is no clear goal, it is futile to just take action.
