accidentally picked up an old movie today-" Tom Sawyer Adventures ". In fact, the movie is not very old. It was released in 2011, but the film was adapted from the classic novel of the same name by Mark Twain, but it was in junior high school. I have read it, so I call it "old movie".
Mark Twain, a realist literary writer in the late nineteenth century, entered the world with humor and satire, but with his unique pungent mockery, he was hailed as the "father of American literature" by great writers such as Faulkner and Hemingway.
In my impression, I think Mark Twain is the foreign version of " Lu Xun": Whenever the word human nature is mentioned, it is full of high-grade black taste, irony, but not conventional.
"The Adventures of Tom Sawyer" is one of Mark Twain's most famous works. It describes the "golden age" and shows the story behind this gilded veil with the encounter of a teenager.
, a boy living in an inland country, can completely hide your fantasies about all "bear kids". He accepts the most disciplined education, but the most unruly. He hates washing his face, hates wearing clean clothes, hates making short reports and hates going to school.
If you have read "The Biography of Mark Twain" at the same time, you will know that many of the stories of the protagonist of this story, the Adventures of Tom Sawyer, are the personal experiences of the author. One of the most classic clips of
is: painter.
1. "The painter who makes people rush to dry": How to make boring and interesting
Because of his playfulness, Tom climbed the window to go home and got caught. So early on Saturday morning, there was a depressed little boy on the road. Face: With a lime bucket in one hand and a long-handled brush in the other, facing a row of fences, Tom is almost unlovable.
is imminent to find a substitute for the dead ghost.
Soon Tom found the target. He subcontracted a drudgery at the cost of "a marble" + "free appreciation of his inflamed toes".
was a good show to compensate, and was soon discovered, so the hard work returned to Tom. Facing more than 1,000 fences, Tom's face was even more ugly.
But soon, Tom thought of another trick: He was humming and enjoying painting "happily". He said from time to time: "Which boy has the opportunity to paint the fence every day?" For a while,
took the initiative to come to Tom, and there was an endless stream of children asking for painting. Because of the rare opportunity, they had to give Tom some gifts in exchange: lunatic, slingshot, apple, harmonica, etc.
At the end of the day, Tom was lying in the shade of the trees, watching these bullies working for him, and counting the trophies on hand.
finally returned home, because the fence was well brushed, and an extra donut was awarded.
"If you want something to be coveted, the best way is to keep him out of it."
It's like a rich person in the summer, driving a carriage every day to spend the summer, because it is a privilege. A symbol of wealth, but if they get paid for it, it becomes a job and they will retreat.
has always been like this.
2. The work itself is not annoying. The "no sense of accomplishment" is
. This reminds me of one thing:
There are some people, not only do you not hate to help him, but you will be very happy because you helped.
A friend around me is like this, excel is very poor, and by coincidence, she happens to be an HR, and she cannot do her daily work without excel. Then I asked: why not find a time to learn? One more skill, one less reason to ask for help.
In the end, she said no, the reason is: Why do I have to do it myself?
She said: I’m not good at excel, but I don’t have to use it every day. When I need to do complex calculations, I will consult the company’s excel teacher (the company where she works has excel training courses). If you think it takes a day or two, they will get it done in a few minutes. Not only does it help you, but it also adds a "real user problem", which also adds a "real case". Isn't that what they need? ?
Of course, this friend of mine has a very high EQ, and always brings some snacks.He praised each other, so even though he was "looking for things" everywhere in the company, his popularity was excellent.
This kind of practice is right to think about it carefully. If she has to learn by herself, although her work efficiency may improve in the future, she still needs time, energy, and money to learn in the early stage. It's better to ask the teacher directly to get the best of both worlds.
Sure enough, most people in the workplace do not hate doing more things in their professional fields, especially things that bring "a sense of accomplishment" and "a sense of contribution."
3. Only when you have a sense of accomplishment will you be "motivated."
When it comes to "sense of accomplishment" and "sense of contribution," I think this is an important source of "self-confidence" and "happiness." Recently, due to the company's business adjustments, several colleagues have been transferred to do some "not very good" things. I don't know how the business executives negotiated, but judging from the results, half of the people who transferred their posts asked to leave after a month. One of
was originally a product manager and was asked to do some live broadcasts.
may be because the colleagues in charge of the live broadcast are more demanding, and they are more demanding on the script, expressiveness, and camera sense. In addition, the live broadcast is different from the product, and the data feedback is very timely. This caused the product manager to be over-stressed and once doubted whether he was very poor". As a result,
also had a big impact on what he was good at and made several low-level mistakes. Fortunately,
found out in time that he suspended his live broadcast work, and he was considered to have kept his "mental health".
Looking back at the people around you who are "motivated", without exception, they can do everything they do. , Find someone with a certain "sense of accomplishment".
4, written at the end,
said that I will be in "The Adventures of Tom Sawyer", the story of the painter has always inspired me a lot.
is especially: whether a thing is hard or not is not determined by the workload. Not to mention whether Tom’s approach is cunning, don’t the children who paint the walls for him get happiness from it?
So, for many things, if you look at the problem from another angle, you will find many different possibilities, right?
may wish to read this classic work again when you have time, and learn the new by reviewing the past.
