Success motivation story

Once a small country came to China to pay tribute to three identical gold people. The splendor of the golden wall made the emperor very happy. However, this small country is not kind, and at the same time a question arises: who is the most valuable of these three gold people? The emperor thought of many ways to ask the jeweler to check, weigh and watch the work, all of which were exactly the same. What shall we do? The messenger is still waiting for a return. A vast country, you don't even understand this little thing? Finally, an old minister who abdicated said that he had an idea. The emperor invited the emissary to the main hall, and the old minister confidently took three straws and inserted them into the ear of the first gold man. The straw came out of the other ear. The straw of the second gold man fell out directly from his mouth, and the straw of the third gold man fell into his stomach without any noise. The old minister said: the third gold man is the most valuable! The messenger was silent and the answer was correct.

This story tells us that the most valuable person is not necessarily the most talkative person. God gave us two ears and one mouth, which was supposed to make us listen more and talk less. Being good at listening is the most basic quality of a mature person.

2. Chen Atu

Chen Atu, a farmer in Taiwan Province Province, has never been far away. After saving money for half my life, I finally joined a tour group and went abroad. Everything abroad is very fresh. The key point is that Chen Atu joined a luxury group and lived in a standard room. This makes him novel. In the morning, when the waiter knocked on the door to deliver breakfast, he shouted, "Good morning, sir!" "

Chen Atu froze. What does this mean? In my hometown, strangers usually ask, "What's your name?"

So Chen Atu shouted, "My name is Chen Atu!"

If so, for three days in a row, it was the waiter Chen Atu who knocked at the door and said "Good morning" loudly every day, and also replied loudly: "My name is Chen Atu!"

But he was very angry. This waiter is so stupid that he asks his name every day and tells him that he can't remember. Very annoying. Finally, he couldn't help asking the tour guide, "Good morning, sir!" " What do you mean? The tour guide told him, oh, my God! ! That's a real pity.

Chen Atu practiced saying "Good morning, sir!" This word allows you to deal with waiters with dignity.

Another morning, the waiter knocked at the door as usual. As soon as the door opened, Chen Atu shouted, "Good morning, sir!"

At the same time, the waiter shouted, "I'm Chen Atu!"

This story tells us that interpersonal communication is often a contest between willpower and willpower. Either you influence him or he influences you. If we want to succeed, we must cultivate our own influence. Only those with great influence can become the strongest.

3. Jews in prison

Three people are going to be put in prison for three years, and the warden gives each of them a request.

Americans love to smoke cigars and asked for three boxes of cigars. The French are the most romantic and want to be accompanied by beautiful women. The Jew said he wanted a telephone to communicate with the outside world.

Three years later, the first person who rushed out was an American, with a cigar in his mouth and shouting, "Give me a fire, give me a fire!" " "It turned out that he forgot to make a fire.

Then the French came. I saw a child in his hand, a beautiful woman holding a child in her hand and a third one in her belly. Finally, the Jews came out. He held the warden's hand tightly and said, "I have been in contact with the outside world every day for three years." My business has not stopped, but has increased by 200%. To express my gratitude, I send you an old Schleswig! "

This story tells us that what kind of choice determines what kind of life. Today's life is determined by our choices three years ago, and today's choices will determine our life three years later. We should choose to get in touch with the latest information and understand the latest trends, so as to create our own future better.

4. Maitreya and Wei Tuo.

Anyone who has been to the temple knows that as soon as he enters the temple gate, the first one is Amitabha, welcoming guests with a smiling face, and in the north of him, it is Darkmouth's black-faced Wei Tuo. But according to legend, a long time ago, they were not in the same temple, but in charge of different temples. Buddha Miller is enthusiastic and happy, so many people come, but he doesn't care about anything, and his accounts are improperly managed, so he still can't make ends meet. Although Wei Tuo was a cook in charge of accounts, he was unhappy all day, which was too serious. He made fewer and fewer friends and finally died. Buddha found this problem when he was looking for incense, so he put them in the same temple. Maitreya was in charge of public relations and greeted all the guests with smiles, so the incense was flourishing. Wei Tuo is selfless,

Pearl is not as good as Pearl, so let him take charge of finance and strictly control it. In the division of labor and cooperation between the two people, the temple flourished.

In fact, in the eyes of the master of employing people, people without waste, like martial arts masters, can hurt people by picking flowers and flying leaves without expensive swords. The key is how to use them.

Step 5 buy a parrot

A man went to buy a parrot and saw a sign in front of it: This parrot can speak two languages, 200 yuan. In front of another parrot, it was written: This parrot can speak four languages, and the price is 400 yuan. Which one should I buy? Both are shiny, very flexible and lovely. The man turned and couldn't make up his mind. Suddenly I found a parrot with a tooth missing. Its coat color is dim and messy, and its price is 800 yuan. The man quickly called the boss: Can this parrot speak eight languages? The shopkeeper said, no, this person is very strange: then why is it so old, so ugly and so incompetent that it is worth this number? The shopkeeper replied: because the other two parrots call this parrot boss.

This story tells us that a real leader is not necessarily strong in his own ability. As long as he knows how to trust, how to delegate and how to cherish, he can unite forces stronger than himself and thus enhance his value. On the contrary, many people with very strong abilities are too perfectionist and hands-on, and no one can match them. In the end, I can only be the best researcher and sales representative, but I can't be an excellent leader.

6. Meet the boss

A, a white-collar worker in a joint venture company, feels that his ambition has not been appreciated by his superiors. He often thinks: If only one day he could meet his boss and have a chance to show his talents! ! A's colleague B has the same idea. He went one step further and asked the boss when he got to and from work and figured out when he got into the elevator. He also took the elevator at this time, hoping to meet his boss and say hello. Their colleague c went further. He learned about the boss's struggle in detail, made clear the school where the boss graduated, interpersonal style and focus, and carefully designed a few simple but weighty opening remarks.

Bai went by elevator at the appointed time. After greeting the boss several times, he finally had a long talk with the boss one day and soon got a better position.

Fools miss opportunities, wise men seize opportunities, and winners create opportunities. Opportunities are only given to those who are prepared, and the word "preparation" is not just talk.

7. Crazy people and nerds

A psychology professor visited the madhouse to learn about the living conditions of the mentally ill. After all, it's an eye-opener to think that these people are crazy and act unexpectedly. Unexpectedly, when I was about to return, I found my tire dropped. "Some madman must have done it!" The professor thought angrily and began to get the spare tire ready to install. This is serious. The man who got off the tire actually dropped all the screws. You can't get on without screws and spare tires! The professor was at a loss. Just as he was in a hurry, a madman jumped up and sang an unknown happy song. He found the professor in trouble and stopped to ask what had happened. The professor ignored him and told him out of courtesy. The madman smiled and said, "I have an idea!" " "He removed one screw from each tire so that he had three screws to install the spare tire. The professor was pleasantly surprised and very curious: "How did you come up with this idea?" The madman smiled and said, "I am a madman, but I am not a fool!" " "

In fact, many people in the world, because they find pleasure in their work, always show different fanaticism from ordinary people, which is hard to understand. When many people laugh at them as crazy, others may still laugh at him as a bookworm. Stupidity and cleverness are especially a good attitude in China.

8. Tie your shoelaces

Before a master performer came on stage, his disciples told him that his shoelaces were loose. The master nodded his thanks and squatted down to tie it carefully. Disciple turned his back and squatted down to untie his shoelaces. A bystander saw all this and asked inexplicably, "Master, why did you untie your shoelaces again?" The master replied, "Because I play a tired traveler, I can loosen his shoes after a long journey and show his fatigue and haggard through this detail." "Then why don't you just tell your disciples?" "He can carefully find that my shoelaces are loose and enthusiastically tell me that I must protect his enthusiasm and encourage him in time. As for why I untied my shoelaces, I will have more opportunities to teach him to perform in the future. I can talk about it next time. "
