Li Wende, a human resources expert, once said:
Many people have a hard time surviving in the workplace, and it's not because they don't have enough ability.
In fact, people's intelligence is almost the same, and the real difference between workplace elites and marginal people is energy. ”
In his view, power needs to be fulfilled, but energy is within reach.
Having high energy means that you have super stress resistance and output ability.
Even in difficult situations, you can maintain an upward posture until you get out of the trough.
On the contrary, no matter how capable a person is, if he does not have enough energy to support him, he will be easily knocked down by life and thus collapse.
What really determines a person's height is never ability, but energy.
Physical energy. Zhihu blogger @小野 once told his experience in a post.
He is a paralegal in a leading law firm in China, and is highly used by his boss because of his outstanding ability.
Important cases across the country will be assigned to him to assist in handling, for which he works overtime all year round to catch up with the schedule.
Every time he gets off work late at night, he eats takeout and instant noodles and falls asleep.
For a while, he suddenly found himself always out of shape, with all sorts of minor physical problems.
Either stomach pain, chest tightness and panic, and the brain is also sluggish.
He wanted to grit his teeth and straighten up, but because he was often in a trance, he made frequent mistakes at work.
In the end, he fought for a long time to become a regular position, and he was handed over to others in this way.
He sighed in the article: "I had the opportunity to become a formal lawyer back then, but I didn't expect to be held back by my body. ”
I think of a sentence from Chinese medicine practitioner Yang Honglin:
Body energy is the foundation of life activities, once excessively consumed, life will lose the source of motivation. ”
So how much a person can achieve is, fundamentally, how long the body can last.
Only by taking care of your body first can you get a steady stream of energy to work hard.
Psychologist Wu Zhihong tells a case in the book.
Konishi is a desperate Saburo, who usually stays up late and works overtime, and rarely rests even on weekends.
Once, Konishi was still sorting out materials at the computer desk at two o'clock in the morning, when he suddenly had an acute myocarditis attack and fainted directly.
Fortunately, her family found her in time and took her to the hospital, which put her out of danger.
When the doctor learned about the situation, he advised her not to try too hard:
Mobile phones need power, and the body needs energy. Now your body's energy is close to shutting down, and if you don't recharge it, everything will be in vain. ”
After being discharged from the hospital, she began to eat and sleep on time, and also made an exercise plan for herself.
Finally, with the blessing of a healthy body, in less than two years, she achieved the position of manager.
A quote from Zuckerberg comes to mind:
Only by maintaining good health can we have more energy to do more meaningful things.
No matter how busy you are at work, you should also take a break and squeeze out a little time to give yourself a good rest.
No matter how stressful it is, it is necessary to relax appropriately and recharge and store energy for the body in time.
When people's bodies are always full of energy, they have more motivation to do things.
Emotional energy. In 1983, the American sociologist Hawk Heard proposed a theory of "emotional labor".
It refers to the labor in which in addition to physical and mental work is present in daily life, and there is also an emotional work.
I am depressed because of an insignificant, and I am annoyed and irritable because ......of a little unsatisfactory
When a person consumes too much emotion in the minutiae, it is naturally difficult to have enough energy to deal with more important things.
In the 80s of the 20th century, there were twin stars McEnroe and Connors in the world tennis world.
Both are left-handed, excellent ball skills, and both have won a lot of honors.
But every time the two meet, McEnroe always loses more and wins less.
At that time, some commentators pointed out the problem:
McEnroe's ball has a lot of power, but when it comes to the critical moment, the power is drained by his emotions.
It turned out that during the game, McEnroe always couldn't control his emotions.
The sweat-absorbing white powder on his hands was not to his liking, and he began to complain; When the referee's decision was controversial, he immediately cursed; If you make a slight mistake, you will become depressed.
Even if he still has physical strength after every game, he is made unable to fight by all kinds of bad emotions.
As a result, he was always inconsistent in top-level matchups and retired at the age of 33.
Connors, on the other hand, always responded with a smile no matter how many twists and turns there were on the field.
In this way, even in the face of difficult games, he can play stably with the most energy.
In the end, he won several awards, not to mention, and his career continued until the age of 44.
In real life, there are many people who have a little temper and break up after getting along with others without saying a few words.
There are also people who like to complain, be depressed all day long, listless in everything, and end up with nothing.
Reminds me of a quote from Lisa Barrett, a member of the American Academy of Sciences:
Emotional energy is a valuable resource that determines a person's development scenario.
Energy is limited, and you consume too much emotionally, and you are naturally unable to handle things.
Therefore, if you control your emotions, you are saving energy.
When you smile often and feel less annoyed, you can improve your emotional energy, and you can concentrate on being yourself.
Mental energy. The famous American marketing guru Nathaniel Fowler Jr. once said:
Powerful spiritual energy will make the space vibrate, and all difficulties will make way for you. ”
People who lack mental energy are passive and lazy, they hide when they encounter problems, and slowly people are wasted.
And those who are mentally resilient, but the more frustrated they are, the more courageous they are, and they all have high mental energy.
I once knew a new ** author who had just graduated, he was young, but his articles were sharp and his writing was very sophisticated.
With many years of experience in new ** writing, I concluded that as long as he persevered, he would be able to achieve good results within three or five years.
Who knew that a 10 million large manuscript experience became a turning point in his career.
At that time, for the sake of an article, he changed it more than a dozen times.
As a result, the editors are always not satisfied, and every feedback is a dense stream of revisions.
But even if he changed it to the point of collapse, the manuscript still ended in a dead draft.
After that, every time there was a large request, he was afraid for a while, and refused without hesitation, only giving some simple and easy small contributions.
As a result, his articles became worse and worse, and he soon disappeared from the Internet.
There are many people in life who are afraid of difficulties and tremble when they encounter difficulties.
But the more scared you are, the more you don't want to face it, the more serious the situation will be, and eventually you will only be knocked down by the predicament.
When your mental energy is strong enough and you have the courage to face it directly, you will find that the so-called challenges are nothing more than that.
Mr. Jin Weichun, a well-known person in Taiwan, founded the magazine "Business Week" in his early years.
He invested most of his family and spent a lot of effort, but he didn't have much circulation.
In less than a year, the magazine that had been so hard to establish was on the verge of closure.
Friends advised him to forget it and stop losses in time to leave some funds for himself.
Jin Weichun said: "I haven't been afraid of anything. It's a big deal to have nothing and start all over again. ”
Since then, Jin Weichun has worked harder, and when there is a problem with the business direction of the magazine, he will visit his predecessors everywhere to learn from experience;
The content of the article was not deep enough, so he personally wrote it and fought at night.
In the face of difficulties, he tried his best to endure the hardships and survived the most difficult days.
Finally, in its sixth year, Business Week's circulation exploded and it became the largest magazine in Taiwan.
It was Jin Weichun's spirit of not admitting defeat that gave him enough energy to reverse the situation.
Yu Minhong said that only when the spirit is strong enough to dare to face any challenge can the work change in a better direction.
If you want to make achievements in this life, you must learn to cheer yourself up and replenish your spiritual energy.
Turn "I can't" into "I can do it", and "I won't" into "I can learn".
Take out unlimited mental perseverance to die, and your persistence will eventually be beautiful.
Drucker, the father of modern management, said that you have to learn to manage energy, not time.
Because whether it's physical, emotional, or mental, energy is needed to stay alive.
You must know that people are just a battery, no matter how large the capacity is, but there is no power, it is all in vain.
If you're feeling tired and depressed right now, it's time to recharge your batteries.
Try to move your body regularly every day to relax and unwind.
Only when you have a full spirit and a reasonable distribution of energy can you truly take control of your life.
Give it a thumbs up and encourage your friends.
