Gossip around the pit (1)

1.

Advertisers are probably the type of people who like to complain about pitfalls the most, including pitfalls from customers, pitfalls from leaders, pitfalls from colleagues, pitfalls from suppliers... It seems that In work and life, every endless step is a pit. Living in the pit and rising up on the edge of the pit can be said that my daily state is on the edge of the pit;

Recently, there have been several articles about " A WeChat article that discussed the emerging ranking of "Filling in the Hole" as a core competitiveness in the workplace has attracted a wave of popularity. Regardless of whether it is justified or not, judging from the forwards and attached life experiences of leaders and bosses in my circle of friends, It seems to be very popular with managers, and of course it further proves that the workplace is indeed full of pitfalls;

A status word that encompasses the normal conditions of daily life in the workplace, and it is also suitable for what I usually think and say. They all have a slightly ridiculous style, so it is generally related to pitfalls.

Finally, Jiangnan’s "Dragon Tribe", which I have been following since high school, has finally begun serializing its fifth volume. For book lovers who have been waiting, this can probably be regarded as a lifetime series. , Jiangnan, which has always been known for digging pits, should have finally recognized itself this time. While serializing, it occasionally includes some explanations to readers, and it is uniformly named "Talk on the Side of the Pit";

This approach of Jiangnan is the origin of the final name of my account.

It’s just that the pits in Jiangnan are often dug by oneself, and as a writer, he leaves endless pits for readers. Although I have the same name, I hope I am nothing like him. He will neither dig a hole for himself, nor let down the readers' waiting, and submit the manuscript on time, if I have readers.

In the self-introduction of the account, I raised a question: avoid pitfalls or fill pitfalls, this is a question.

This is a problem that must be faced when traveling in the world.

If we classify them according to their attitude towards pitfalls, there are roughly three types of people in the workplace and life:

The first-class people avoid pitfalls, and the first-class people are the smartest. Avoiding pitfalls does not mean escaping, but avoidance, that is, through your shrewd brain and rich experience, you can prevent pitfalls before they are formed, nip them in the bud, and successfully avoid each pitfall, seemingly calm and smooth all the way. , in fact, everything behind it is full of calculations, every step is taken early, and the first-class people take the trouble;

The second-class people fill in the holes, and compared to the first-class people, there are fewer second-class people after all. Comprehension and experience, people often don’t realize that a pit is coming before it takes shape. They can only suddenly realize it when the pit has appeared. Second-class people will often fill in the pit when they encounter it. After all, second-class people are more capable than others. Accept death, look at the pit in front of you, and then look at the pits around you. There are pits everywhere anyway, so identify a path and walk to the end. After filling in the pit, get up from the bottom. Keep filling in the pit and keep moving forward. Although there are many pitfalls, as the saying goes, all pitfalls are inseparable from the origin. The problems we young people encounter are all written in the history books of the ancients. If there are too many pitfalls, second-class people will always become first-class or half-class people. It’s a day for first-class people, but filling holes is a hard job after all, so second-class people work hard

Third-class people go around holes. Filling holes is hard work, so naturally not everyone is willing to do it. Yes, people who see a hole and fill it up are second-class people. The other type of people who go around the hole are third-class people. But as we said before, this life and work are full of pitfalls. There are pits in front of you. If you look around, you can see that there are all pits. If you want to go around one pit, you have to pass by another pit. In order to go around one pit, you have to go around four or five pits. I'm dizzy. There are more pits. Maybe I'm not careful and I end up falling into a pit. Moreover, because I've gone around too many pits, I'm not like the second type of people who are always filling them in. Maybe I'll fall into them. Buried in a pit, I tried to go around the pit, but in the end I couldn't. I spent money and got nothing, so the third class wasted time;

After talking about the attitude towards pitfalls, I want to talk about where pitfalls come from:

Different pitfalls have different ways of coming from. Specific pitfalls need to be analyzed in detail. Let’s pick the nearest one. Let’s talk about a situation where two people accidentally dug a hole for themselves.

The distance between our home and the subway station is about 1.2 kilometers. When I go to work every day, walking is a bit slow, taking a taxi is not possible, and I can’t wait for the bus, so many people choose to ride a bicycle. When I picked up the bicycle, the road was very wide and the riders were far apart. However, after riding for about 3 minutes, the flow of bicycles merged into the flow of traffic, leaving only a narrow area of ??about 30 meters. The non-motorized lanes with a width of 1.5 meters are for riders to use, and there is an intersection in front of them. When cyclists arrive at this intersection, they often slow down in a very tacit understanding, waiting in two rows to the left and right to wait for the green light to pass. The order is in order. If everyone could do this, there would seem to be no pitfalls here. However, there are just one or two who must bear more important responsibilities than the comrades in line and must pass faster, so they often A third person appeared in the middle of the two types of columns. The original intention was to get further ahead and pass early, but the reality is usually the step of starting after waiting for the red light to turn green. A swaying bicycle with no speed is not If you veer to the left, you veer to the right. You always have to brush against one of the two columns that are about to pass by, causing the entire team to slow down. Those who want to pass quickly are delayed by themselves. This is a typical digging. The number of pitfalls - one-sided focus on self-interest, in direct conflict with the surrounding environment;

There is another situation that suddenly occurred to me on the way to and from work. One day, I got off work late one day and walked from the subway entrance. When I came out, there were only a few private bicycles available outside the station. I could only push one onto one. When I got on it, I realized that the handle of this bicycle was not quite right. It was a little crooked. The hands move forward and backward, and when you stretch out both hands at the same distance, you will find that you are taking a road that keeps turning right. Obviously, if you want to go home, you have to keep going straight most of the time, and the handlebars are no longer on the road. It is a reliable reference system. You can only find the correct route and focus on the actual straight line. If you still use the grip condition as a reference, you may not be able to ride a few steps and you will get an accident. This is the second type. It is easy to dig a hole for yourself - you cannot find the core goal and the frame of reference that can guide the achievement of the core goal.

If you talk about something that may or may not be interesting, it’s almost like gossip.

Come to think of it, I am probably a second-class person, just keep moving forward on the way to fill the hole.
