Treat work as a career
source:本站/reprinted time :2022-10-06
I have read three very classic and philosophical words: "treat work as a career, study a career as knowledge, and use knowledge as a weapon.". Up to now, I still feel that the meaning is profound and enlightening. There is a very simple and popular answer to the work we talk about: the means of making a living. It is very practical to seek survival first and then to develop. But the career is different, the career sublimates the work, turns the work into the life pursue. One flower, one world, one tree, one Bodhi. In life, we all can see that some people stick to their faith, passion burning years, take a job as a career to do, hard work, never tired. Among them, there are leaders living in Higher Vocational Colleges and ordinary employees. For such people, I am full of respect, because most of the people who integrate their passion into their life and work are optimistic, and their happiness and achievements can be infected and passed on to the people around them. Of course, we can also meet people who complain that their work is not satisfactory, the working environment is poor, the prospects are dim, and they are boring. In the same years, the same work, different people will have different reactions. Maybe you and I will ask ourselves, why? If you only regard the work as a job, or only focus on the work itself, then even if you only regard the work as a job, or only focus on the work itself, then even if it is from In your favorite job, you still can't keep your passion for work lasting. But if you look at work as a career, the situation will be different. If you only regard work as a job, it's hard to pour your enthusiasm into it. And if you look at your job as a career, it's totally different. I remember a story: in a small town, passers-by asked three masons what they were doing. The first stonemason said, "I move stones to build walls every day." The second stonemason said, "my job is very important. I will build the walls so that the house will be strong." The third stonemason, with a twinkle in his eyes, said, "I have a great responsibility. This is the first church in the town. I will build it into a symbol of a century." Whether work is fun or boring for us depends on what we think, not the work itself. The secret of happiness, success and satisfaction from work is not to choose what you like to do, but to like what you do from the bottom of your heart. Even if you're destined to be a street sweeper, do your part, just as Michelangelo paints, Beethoven composes, or Shakespeare writes poetry. Put all your energy into achieving the best job performance, and let everyone stop and admire you: "this cleaner is so good." An old Texas proverb says, "wet matches don't catch fire." When you find your work boring and boring, it's not because there is something wrong with the work itself, but because your "flammability index" is not high enough. Ignite the passion in your heart and everything will be OK.
