Create a good working and living atmosphere

Your brain is a singular piece of tissue. Once your brain has a goal in mind, it will set you up for compelling success.

The same brain, if it thinks in different ways, can lead to complete failure.

Your mind is the finest and most sensitive, and it creates everything.

Let's look at what determines the way our minds think.

People know the necessity of diet, we are a nutritious country, and we spend thousands of dollars on vitamins, minerals and nutrients, and it's easy to see why.

Nutritional studies have shown that our physical fitness depends on the food we eat.

Our constitution, ability to fight disease, size, and even the length of our lifespan are all related to the food we eat.

In the same way that our bodies need food, our minds need spiritual food.

Of course, food for thought cannot be stored in a pocket or bought in a store.

The so-called spiritual food is the environment you are in, that is, all the things that affect your conscious or subconscious.

The type of food we receive for thought determines our habits, attitudes and personalities.

Each of us is born with the potential to create success, but the magnitude of our achievements depends on what kind of spiritual food we receive.

What kind of environment will produce what kind of thoughts, just as our constitution is the embodiment of the food we eat.

Have you ever wondered what kind of person you would be if you grew up not in China, but in another country?

What type of food will you prefer?

Would you like to wear the same outfit?

What kind of entertainment will you enjoy?

What will you do?

What kind of beliefs will you have?

Of course, you'll never find the answers to these questions.

But if you grow up in a different country, you will have the opportunity to become a completely different person.

Why is this so?

Because you are influenced by different circumstances, as the saying goes, you are a slave to your environment, and environment makes people.

Obviously, the environment shapes us, shapes our way of thinking, and makes us have habits and habits that are different from other people's.

Including the little things in our habits, like the way we walk, cough, and hold a cup,

Much of our love of music, literature, entertainment, and clothes is influenced by our environment.

Most importantly, your way of thinking, your goals, your attitude towards life, and your personality are all formed in the environment in which you find yourself.

If we get along with people with negative thoughts for a long time. Our thoughts will be negative;

If we spend a long time with people who are calculating, we will develop the habit of being calculating.

On the contrary, if we surround ourselves with open-minded people, our level of thinking will improve;

If we are in constant contact with ambitious people, we will become ambitious and ambitious.

Experts believe that your personality, ideals, and lifestyle today are only partially influenced by your spiritual environment;

Experts also believe that what you will become in a year, five, ten, twenty years from now depends almost entirely on your future environment.

As we all know, you will change in a few months or years, but what will happen to you depends on your future circumstances and the spiritual food you receive.

Let's take a look at how we can create an environment that makes the future better.

The first step is to re-set the stage for your success.

The first obstacle to great success is that we feel powerless to achieve it, an attitude that comes from the many external forces that lead us to work towards mediocrity.

To better understand the power of these obstacles, let's recall our childhood.

When we were very young, we all had big ambitions, and at certain ages, we all dreamed of manipulating everything in the future and wanting to be leaders;

want to get an enviable high position;

want to do something exciting and exciting;

I want to become famous and become a millionaire in one fell swoop.

All in all, we all want to be the first in everything we do, and we all want to do our best.

In our holy naïve minds, we find ways to achieve these goals.

But what has happened since then?

Before we can begin to work on our great goals, many negative factors are at work and affecting us.

Statements from all sides influence us: "A dreamer, a big fool,"

"His thinking is unrealistic and too naïve",

"We have to have money to do things",

"You're too old or too young".

You are constantly influenced by statements that "you will not succeed", "you don't ask for trouble".

Based on this, we can divide people into three categories:

The first category: people who give up completely.

Most people are convinced in their hearts that they do not have what it takes to succeed.

True success and achievement only belong to people who have luck and opportunity in some special aspects.

You may easily recognize such people, because they can come up with many theories to justify their position and how "happy" they really are.

Why does a 32-year-old, very smart person stay in a safe, ordinary position?

He once spent hours telling me why he was so happy with its work.

He did a reasonable reasoning work, but he only satisfied himself, which he himself knew.

What he really wants to do is to be able to work in a challenging environment that allows him to grow and develop.

However, many adverse external influences led him to believe that he was not fit for a big career.

In fact, this type of person goes to the other extreme of not looking for opportunities, confined himself to a fixed pattern, and deliberately portrays this pattern as a grave that leads to both ends, wandering aimlessly in the hope that one day an opportunity will come to him.

The second category: these people have partially given up hope.

In the second group, a smaller proportion of people still have the confidence to succeed by adulthood, working hard and making plans.

But more than a decade later, resistance began to emerge, and competition for high-level jobs became less enthusiastic.

Such people finally decided that it was not worth the effort to achieve further success.

They thought: We are higher than average, we are better off than the average people, why should we isolate ourselves from the crowd?

In fact, such people have a series of fears, they are afraid of failure, they are afraid of accusations from society, they are afraid of taking risks, they are afraid of losing what they have gained.

These people are not satisfied with the environment, they are well aware of it, but they have given up, they have given in.

Such people include many who are endowed with wisdom and choose to live a creeping and stable life because they are afraid to stand up and walk.

The third type of people: the indomitable people.

Such people can account for 2%-3% of the total number of people, they are not dominated by pessimistic thoughts, do not succumb to external pressures, and do not like a crawling lifestyle;

On the contrary, such people believe in success, and they are the happiest people because they have achieved most of their achievements, and such people can earn more than 1 million yuan a year.

Such people find life exciting, and they receive the rewards and blessings of life.

Such people really expect life to be full of risks, to look forward to every new day, every opportunity to meet other people.

Honestly, we all want to be in the third category.

Such people are more successful each year.

They get satisfactory results in everything they do.

In order to make ourselves a third person, we must fight against the pressures from our environment.

To understand how the first and second types of people unconsciously prevent self-development, consider the following examples:

You can honestly tell a few of your ordinary friends:

"One day, I will be the assistant manager of this company."

What will happen? Your friends may think you're joking.

If they believe that what you say is serious, they may say, "Poor guy, you're going to hit a wall." ”

Behind your back, they may be more suspicious of your goals.

If you sincerely repeat the same words to your manager, how will he react? One thing is for sure:

He will never laugh at you, he will look at you intently and ask himself:

"Does this person really have this intention?" But he doesn't laugh, because great people don't laugh at great minds.

Or you tell ordinary people that you plan to buy a house worth three million dollars, and they may laugh at you because they think it's impossible;

But when you tell your manager that you're already living in a three-million-dollar house, he won't be surprised, he knows it's possible because he's already got it.

Keep in mind that:

The people who always tell you that "it is impossible to achieve" must be the most mediocre and inactive people, and the views of these people are very harmful.

Build a barrier that prevents you from thinking you can't succeed,

Use the negative confessions you get as motivation for your success.

Pay special attention: don't let negative people stop you from thinking about successful plans.

Negative people are everywhere, and they seem to be deliberately undermining the positive development of others.

During my time at university, I befriended Huang Li for a few semesters, and she was a very good friend. When you are short of money, she is always willing to lend you a little money and always help you.

Despite his honesty, Huang Li's life, future, and opportunities are always full of ups and downs, and she is a real negative.

During that time, I was keen to read certain news columns that emphasized hope, a positive outlook on life, and opportunities, and when Huang Li noticed that I was reading or mentioning them, she would wave her hand and say:

"Read the first edition, you can learn the true meaning of life, and you should know that this column can help a person with high ideals to exclude the influence of the weak."

When our discussion turns to life, Huang Li's main topic of conversation turns to making money.

In her own words: "Pear Blossom, there are three ways to make money this year: one is to marry a rich man or woman; the second is to steal in a legal way; The third is to reach out to powerful people who can pull you along. ”

Huang Li always uses examples to prove her methods, and she uses examples like this:

One leader took a lot of money from the entire staff and left.

A man becomes the groom of a millionaire's daughter.

A woman became the bride of a millionaire.

She said she also knew a person who knew a big man who had become rich by taking shortcuts and doing a big business.

Huang Li was a few years older than me, she had excellent grades, I respected her a lot, and I gradually came to believe in what she said, believing that she would be a successful person, and I accepted his negative philosophy.

Luckily, one night, after a long lecture with Huang Li, I overcame myself.

This made me realize that I was listening to a failed voice for me. Huang Li seemed to be talking about something that would only make her believe in herself, but not turn me to her train of thought.

From then on, I saw Huang Li as a negative sample, a kind of person who was only used for experiments.

I wasn't listening to her, I was studying her, trying to figure out why she thought the way she thought and what it would bring her.

I took this depressed friend as a research subject, and she wanted to be a person who didn't work for anything.

I haven't seen Huang Li again for more than ten years.

A friend of ours, who both knew each other, met her a few months ago and said she worked in a handmade unit for a low salary.

I asked my friend Huang Li if anything had changed, and he said:

"No, she's more negative than we thought. She is struggling to make ends meet, her husband is incapable, she has two children, and she lives on her meager income. If she knew how to use her mind, she would be five times better off than she is now. ”

Negative people are everywhere.

There are negative people who talk about their negative theories with a head on the head that almost makes me succumb.

But there are also people who like to be jealous, they don't act, and they don't let you improve.

They are unhappy with themselves and want to make you like them.

Be especially careful with your classmates when researching negative people and don't let them ruin your plans for success.

A young office worker recently explained to me why he had switched to a hitchhiking partner.

"That guy talks all day about how we're working for a horrible company," he said. No matter how he managed it, he thought it was wrong. He wasn't happy with anyone, including his boss. Every morning, I nervously went to work, and every night after listening to his 45-minute lecture, I came home discouraged and depressed. “

The young man shook his head and said, "Finally, I found another hitchhiking partner." I'm in a completely different environment right now, and I'm happy to be around someone who knows how to see things from both sides. “

The young man had changed his environment, was he smart? The answer is yes.

Indeed, you should choose your companion correctly.

Things gather by like, and people are grouped, some people are negative, some people are positive.

Some people do it because he can't work.

Others work to improve.

Some people despise everything their boss says and does, while others are very objective and recognize that they must first be a good submissive before they can be a good leader.

Our thinking is directly influenced by the people we come into contact with, so it's important to choose the right people.

In the environment in which you work, always be aware of those potential hazards.

In every group of people, there are people who know their flaws, and they want to hinder you from moving forward, not allowing you to make progress.

Many aspirants are ridiculed and even threatened because they are unable to work more efficiently and create higher value.

Let's face objective existence.

For those who love to be jealous, your progress can make them feel bad.

In factories, it is common to find workers who sometimes complain about people who want to increase productivity;

The following phenomena also occur in the army, where a group of narrow-minded people ridicule and seek to humiliate young soldiers who want to go to an officer school;

A similar situation can be found in business: people with no future seek to block the path of others;

In a higher school of learning, a group of stupid students mock a student who wants to make the most of his learning opportunities and has excellent grades.

Sometimes, even more saddeningly, smart students are often ridiculed until they come to the conclusion that being smart is not wise.

Ignore the negativity around you.

They're just talkers on your way, just their personal biases about failure and resilience.

Don't let negative people pull you to their side, let them disappear without any impact.

Reach out to people with progressive ideas and work with them every day.

You can do that just by referring to the right thinking.

Be careful: Be aware of the sources of your counsel, as in most organizations you will meet well-meaning counsellors who know the key and who are willing to give you leads.

Once, I occasionally heard a well-meaning counsellor ask a bright young man who had just started working to explain some of the realities of office life, and he said:

"The best thing to do here is to don't care about other people's business, and once they get to know you, they will recommend more work to you. Pay special attention to not interacting with the line manager, if he thinks you don't have enough work to do, they will really crush you. ”

This kind reminder has been with the company for almost 30 years and is still at the bottom.

What a bad person to consult for a person who wants to advance in his career. Because the more you work, the more progress you will get.

Be sure to seek help from someone who has experience and knowledge.

The more humble and willing to help people are, the more successful they tend to be.

Because they are more genuinely interested in their work and success, they are eager to see that when they retire, their work continues and someone can inherit them.

Only those who are optimistic and believe in success will take over their careers as soon as possible and manage them successfully.

A million-year-a-year decision-maker once said: "I am a very busy woman, but there is no Do Not Disturb sign on my office door, it is an important job for me to negotiate with people, I give everyone in the company one or several standardized training, private consultation is necessary." I am very willing to help others solve problems, and I am more willing to help people who want to know more about their work and how their work is related to other jobs. But, obviously, I can't spend my time with people who don't sincerely seek counsel. ”

When you have a question, ask the wise man for advice.

It's not enough to learn from your failures, it's like having a quack discussing how to cure cancer.

Many decision-makers today are the first to meet with their wives when hiring key employees.

A sales leader explained to me:

"I want to be sure that behind a promising salesperson there is a cooperative family, whose family does not object to his business trips, irregular working hours, and other inconveniences in selling products, and the family will help the salesperson solve these inevitable problems".

Today's policymakers recognize:

People who live a colorful amateur life almost always succeed more than those who live in a boring, monotonous, and dull home.

Let's take a look at two workers in the traditional way:

How Zhang San and Li Si spent their weeks, and then see how they ended up with it.

Zhang Sanzhouwei's life is like this:

I often spend one night with interesting friends of my choice, and the other may be in the cinema, in the city or in a public place, or at the home of some friends.

What about Li Si?

He spends his Saturday mornings playing with his children, doing chores on Saturday afternoons, he often does special things, and often eats in the yard. On Sunday they did something special with his family, and this Sunday went hiking. Another Sunday to visit a museum, sometimes they drive to the nearby effect area because he wants to buy some farm property in the near future, or even a villa in the suburbs.

On Sunday nights, he lived a quiet life, often reading books or listening to the news. All in all, Li Si's Zhou Wei plan is very good, there are many fresh activities, he has never felt boring, and he has a lot of spiritual sustenance.

Zhang San's spiritual food is far less abundant than Li Si's, and his Zhou Wei has no plan. Friday night was tiring, but he asked his wife perfunctorily, "What do you want to do tonight?" "But there was never a plan.

Zhang San and his wife rarely had any entertainment, and they were rarely invited out. On Saturday morning, he wakes up late and spends the rest of the day on one or another chores of life. On Sunday nights, he and his family often go to the movies or watch TV (what else is there to do?). In bed, he spends most of his Saturday mornings, occasionally driving to someone's house on Sunday afternoon, or someone else driving to his house. His weeks were dull, and on Sunday evenings the cycle the whole family gathered in a hut, with no knocking at the door, no endless bickering, but sluggishness. His Sundays were dull and boring, and he didn't have any spiritual sustenance.

How did these two family environments affect the two of them?

For a week or two, you may not feel any impact, but after a few years or years, you will find that the environmental impact is significant.

Li Si's environment made him feel invigorated, his mind and thinking were quick, the agile cells in his brain were active, and he looked like a vigorous athlete.

Zhang San's environment made him feel mentally broken, his thinking mechanism was destroyed, the sluggish cells in his brain gathered, and he looked like a listless athlete.

The two of them may be on the same starting line now, but as the years go by, the gap between them will gradually widen, and Li Si will be far ahead.

Some observers may say, "Okay, I think Li Si may have more energy than Zhang San." ”

But I know that the reason why they behave differently at work is because they receive different spiritual food.

Every corn farmer knows that if you fertilize your corn, you will get a high yield of corn, and similarly if we want to get good results, we have to give the mind extra mental nourishment.

My husband and I spent a wonderful evening with my husband and five other couples last month as guests of a department store decision-maker couple.

My husband and I stayed longer than the others and had the privilege of asking the host a question that haunted me all night:

"It was a fantastic evening. But one thing I don't understand, I was expecting to meet the managers of other retail stores tonight, but your customers are all invited from different departments, including writers, doctors, engineers, accountants, and teachers. ”

He laughs and says, "Well, I used to hang out with retailers all the time, but recently my wife and I have found it nice to be around people who are outside the business." If we were to limit ourselves to entertaining people who had the same interests as us, I'm afraid I would have fewer and fewer clients. Because thousands of people of different professions visit our store every day, the more I know about their ideas, interests, and concepts, the better I will do in serving them and the goods I buy. ”

O words of wisdom!

Here are a few simple examples that will put you in a good position in society:

1. Try to make new groups

Confined your relationships to a narrow area will make you feel bored and annoying.

Equally important, if you want to be successful, you have to understand people well, by studying a small group of people, just as you try to master mathematics by reading a short book.

Make more new friends, join new organizations, expand your social contacts, and the changes in people you interact with will make your life more colorful and more open-minded, just like the changes in other things, which is quite good spiritual food.

2. Choose someone who disagrees with you to be friends.

In today's society, narrow-minded people have no future for development.

Only those who can see the problem from both positive and negative sides can get high-ranking officials.

3. Choose people who are open-minded and don't care about things as friends

A person who cares only about your property and is indifferent to your thoughts or conversations is a calculating person, a person who is insignificant.

Take care of your mental environment.

Choose people who are self-motivated and sincerely want you to succeed to make friends.

Develop friendships that can give you the encouragement to accomplish your plans and ideal friends.

If you don't do this, but choose someone who cares as your close friend, you will gradually become a person who cares.

For example, every restaurateur is always on guard against food poisoning.

If there are a few cases of poisoning, his store will no longer have customers.

We have thousands of laws in place to protect the public from the threat of poisons, and we usually keep toxic things high in the shelves out of the reach of children. We try our best to avoid food poisoning, and we do as we should.

But there is another type of poison, perhaps more toxic, and that is psychotropic poisons.

We generally call him "verbal slander".

Spiritual poisons differ from poisons that are harmful to the human body in two ways, and it affects our spirits.

Its effect is so subtle that the poisoned person does not recognize it.

The spiritual poison is small, but it has a great impact, it kills our motivated brain cells, it makes us narrow-minded, and it makes us focus on the little things.

Since it distorts the facts, it also distorts our minds.

Mental poison is absolutely harmful and unbeneficial.

Contrary to what many believe, gossip is not exclusive to women.

Every day, many men also live in a localized poisoned environment.

Thousands of gossip poured into the men, like

"The boss has financial problems";

"Who's got a political problem";

"The possibility of Zhang San being replaced";

"The reason for the special care of Li Si";

"Why did they accept that new person".

Gossip like this:

"I just heard...... No, why ......, alas, it is not surprising at all...... he ...... of his own making, of course, it is a secret ......".

Conversation is the vast majority of our spiritual life.

Some conversation is healthy, it encourages you to move forward, it makes you feel as if you are walking in the warm spring sun;

Some conversations make you feel shivering in the cold of winter, or make you feel like you're suffocating through a dark cloud full of toxic gases and radiation. (Makes you feel bad, makes you a loser.) ）

There was a mentally decadent man who was talking to some friends about Franklin.

As soon as Mr. Li Hui learned about the subject of our conversation, he spoke negatively about Franklin's private life. He said that maybe Franklin was famous in some way, but in the 18th century, he appeared in the magazine "Gossip." But, in fact, the private life of Franklin has nothing to do with the topic we discuss.

Thankfully, we're not talking about people we know a lot.

It's okay to discuss others, but be sure to be on the positive side and use a positive attitude.

Let's figure it out:

Not all conversations are rumors.

When they are constructive, they are good.

You can test your likelihood of becoming a long-tongued woman by following the following tests:

1. Am I spreading rumors about other people?

2. Do I always talk about other people's good things?

3. Do I like to listen to gossip tabloids?

4. Do I judge people based solely on facts?

5. Do I encourage others to tell me their rumors?

6. Am I in the habit of starting my conversation with "don't tell anyone else"?

7. Can I keep it a secret?

8. Do I feel guilty about what I said about other people?

The correct answer is obvious,

It is necessary to stop the rumors to the wise.

Think about it:

Taking your axe and smashing your neighbor's furniture to pieces won't make your furniture look any better.

Attacking others will not make you or me better.

To create first-class conditions, we must adhere to this principle in everything we do.

Include the goods you buy and the services you need.

In order to prove the infallibility of this view, I asked the students to give an example of how they are one-dollar smart and ten-dollar fools, and here are some of the answers:

"I once bought a cheap set of clothes from a retail store, and although I got a good price, the clothes were not good." ”

"I needed a new automatic transmission for my car, so I took it to a small garage and they agreed to fix it for me at a price less than the official price of 25 yuan, and the "new" transmission only lasted 1,800 kilometers, and the small garage could do nothing about it. ”

"To save money, I ate for months in a particularly boring place, the place was not clean, the food was not good, and the customers were a bunch of ragged people."

"One day, a friend advised me to dine with him at one of the best restaurants in the city, and he ordered a nice lunch, which I had a chance to share. I was amazed at what I was getting: the food was delicious, the service was warm and attentive, the setting was elegant, and I didn't overpay much compared to that bad restaurant. I learned a good lesson. ”

There were also many answers: one man said that he was in trouble with the tax office because he hired a cheap accountant;

A person went to see a doctor who paid cheaply and got a completely wrong diagnosis.

Other examples are mainly related to inexpensive home repairs, accommodation, services, etc.

Of course, I've heard a lot of things like this

"I can't afford to be top-notch in everything."

The simple answer is: you can't afford to look for any other way.

It is true that it costs more to buy the best than to buy the next one.

But in the long run, it's much better to have fewer high-quality things than to have many low-quality things.

For example, if you have a good pair of brand-name shoes and are much better than three pairs of defective shoes, and if you wear that pair of shoes on your feet, others will think that you have the money and the ability to wear a brand.

And no matter how many inferior shoes there are, they can't be worn at the same time, and wearing a pair of inferior shoes is definitely not as high as the status of people who wear famous brands in the eyes of others.

Subconsciously, people want to seek out high-quality things, and it is good to cultivate the habit of putting quality first.

Compared with defective products, it costs less and has much less trouble.

Let your environment help you succeed:

1. To have environmental awareness (spiritual environment) Just as the body needs food, the human spirit needs spiritual food.

2. Create a mental environment that is favorable to you and don't let negative forces break you.

3. Don't let narrow-minded people stop your development. Jealous people want to see you linger and not let their plot succeed.

4. Get counsel from successful people. Your future is very important, don't let the well-meaning counsel of living in failure conquer you.

5. Get a lot of spiritual food, keep making new companions, and discover new and exciting things.

6. Remove harmful thoughts from your environment, ignore gossip, and don't become a long-tongued woman yourself. It's okay to comment on others, but always in a positive way.
