Everyone can think, but not many people can think a few more steps when considering a problem, and understand the essence of things more deeply and thoroughly in thinking.
Arrow and Brow are employed by a supermarket almost at the same time. At the beginning, everyone was the same, starting from the bottom. But soon if love is favored by the general manager, it will be promoted again and again, from the foreman to the department manager. Like being forgotten, Buti is still at the bottom of the water. Finally, one day, Bu couldn't bear to resign from the general manager, denouncing the general manager for looking down on dogs and promoting those who brag and flatter rather than those who work hard.
The general manager listened patiently. He knows the young man and is willing to work hard, but something seems to be missing. What is missing? I can't make it clear in a few words, but he won't accept it if I make it clear. It seems that ... he suddenly had an idea.
"Mr. Blau," said the general manager, "go to the market at once and see what's on sale today."
Blau came back from the market soon and said that there was only one farmer pulling a cart to sell potatoes in the market just now.
"How many bags and kilograms does a car have?" The general manager asked.
Bro ran back 10 package.
"What's the price?" Bro went to the set again.
The general manager looked at him panting and said, "Please have a rest. You can see how love works. " After that, I called Aro and said to him, "Mr. Aro, go to the market right away and see what's on sale today?"
Ai Ruo came back from the market soon, and reported that there was only one farmer selling potatoes with 10 bags. The price is moderate and the quality is good. He brought some back to show the manager. The farmer will buy several baskets of tomatoes in the market later. According to him, the price is reasonable and he can buy some goods. The general manager of tomatoes at this price may want them, so he not only brought back some tomatoes as samples, but also brought the farmer, who is waiting for a reply outside now!
The general manager glanced at his blushing brother and said, "Invite him in."
Love has achieved some success in her work because she thinks a few steps more than Bro.
How many steps can you think of when you think about the problem?
In real life, thinking a few more steps, that is, foresight, will bring great value to our lives.
Katherine Lohan of Kharkov said: "Vision tells us what we may get. Vision calls us to action. With a grand plan in mind, we will move from one achievement to another, and take the material conditions around us as a springboard to a higher, better and more comfortable realm. In this way, we have immeasurable eternal value. "
In this regard, Professor Harvard gave us two suggestions:
The more far-sighted a person is, the more potential he has for success.
Deep thinking brings great benefits and opens the door to incredible opportunities. Deep thinking can enhance a person's potential.
(1) Deep thinking makes work easy and enjoyable.
Achievement makes life more interesting. Nothing is more pleasant than this feeling when you work hard and do your job well. It gives you a sense of accomplishment, and it is very interesting. It is even more exciting when those small achievements serve a bigger goal-for example, making a profound thinking come true. Each task has become an important part of a larger picture.
(2) Deep thinking can add value.
Similarly, when our work is part of realizing our vision, every task is valuable. Even the most monotonous task will give you satisfaction, because you see that bigger goals are being achieved.
(3) Deep thinking is actually predicting your future.
People who lack deep thinking may be at a loss to wait for the future. The wind of change will blow them all over the sky They don't know where they will fall and what awaits them. Life is an opportunity, and these people want their opportunities to be good.
If you have the ability to think deeply and work hard, you are more likely to achieve your goal in the future. It is true that the future cannot be guaranteed, and anyone can. But you can greatly increase your chances of success.
Strive to overcome the unfavorable factors that affect deep thinking
Deep thinking is so important that we can't leave it for a moment in the process of creating a successful life.
However, there are also three unfavorable factors that affect the depth of our thinking.
Past experiences will affect the depth of our thinking.
Past experience is more likely to limit our horizons than any other Gang Suo. We often look at future opportunities through past successes or failures. If your past is particularly difficult, painful and unsuccessful, you may need to redouble your efforts to see the future.
An excellent example can be found in Nature to illustrate how the past influenced a person. This example is in the flea circus. You may have seen it in a carnival or circus before. These tiny insects can jump very high, but they can't exceed the predetermined limit. Every flea seems to default to an invisible maximum. Do you know why these fleas limit their jumping height?
At the beginning of training, fleas were placed under a glass cover with a certain height. At first, these dancers tried to jump out, but they hit the glass cover. After a few jumps, they stopped trying to jump out. Later, even if the glass cover was taken away, they would not jump out, because past experience told fleas that they could not jump out. These fleas fell victim to self-restraint.
People can become like this. If you decide that you can't succeed, you limit your vision. Use your head, dare to have great ideals and do your best. Don't turn off your potential.
(2) The current pressure will hinder our thinking depth.
A father and son are driving a donkey to the market to buy food. At first, the father rode a donkey and the son walked. When passers-by saw them passing by, they all said, "How cruel! A strong man is sitting on the donkey's back, but the poor little guy has to walk. "
So the father came down and the son went up. But people say, "How unfilial! Father walks and son rides a donkey. "
So the father and son rode together. Then passers-by said, "How cruel! Two people are riding on the poor donkey's back. "
So both of them came down and left. Passers-by added, "What a fool! Two people are walking, but the strong donkey has nothing to carry. "
When they finally reached the market, they were already a whole day late. People were surprised to find that this man took his son to the market!
Just like this donkey driver, we will be too worried about the pressure to see the direction clearly and forget the goal.
You know, trivial things and empty criticisms will also occupy our minds and make us unable to have foresight. Don't let this happen to you.
(3) Lack of insight will restrict our thinking depth.
Insight is essential for deep thinking. In the final analysis, deep thinking is to see and think about the present situation and future prospects in the huge picture of life.
Lack of insight is very unfavorable. Have you ever heard of it? /kloc-in the 0 th and 9 th centuries, someone in the patent office of the United States suggested closing the patent office because he felt that no one could invent anything of value. Considering the scientific and technological progress since 1900, we will understand that it is incredible for someone to make such a suggestion.
If your insight is not good, please try to look at the problem from another angle. Study history, study the cultures of other nationalities, and then pay attention to the future when analyzing current things. As Professor Frank Gaine of Harvard University said, "Only those who see what others can't see can do what others can't see."
Only by overcoming the above unfavorable factors that affect deep thinking can we be in an invincible position in any activity.
