Hello everyone, I'm early summer, welcome to [The First Language of Summer].
Make up for the house on a sunny day, and take precautions to be able to worry about the rain
In good times, don't plan for the future, and wait until the difficulties come, and then go to make amends, it's too late.
Only by taking precautions and planning early can we turn crises into opportunities and successfully overcome every difficulty.
Improve your skills
Zhang Quanling once said: When the times abandon us, we won't be able to greet us.
The workplace is highly competitive, and if you don't have the skills to survive, you may not have enough stamina.
Oracle, the world's largest enterprise software company, laid off more than 900 employees overnight. Most of them are 30-40 years old, with master's degrees from Tsinghua University, Peking University and other famous universities.
At first, everyone thought that Oracle was technologically backward and could not keep up with the development of the times, and only later did people understand the real situation of the layoffs.
Oracle has a nickname in the outside world called "Zhongguancun No. 1 Nursing Home". The benefits are good, the salary is high, the work is easy, and the maximum number of people working is one or two months a year, and there are many people who work directly from home.
These veteran employees who have worked for many years are content with the status quo with peace of mind, too lazy to progress, and too lazy to learn.
After Oracle's layoffs, many well-known companies staged a drama to grab people, after all, which company does not need highly educated talents.
Surprisingly, however, many people did not even pass the first round of interviews, and even if they did, they failed to pass the practical test of the technical test.
Some HR complained: "Their level is not as good as a novice".
So you see, in unpredictable times, stagnation is regression, and once you are confused by the stability in front of you, you will be swallowed up by laziness.
If you want not to be eliminated, you can only adapt to the changes of the times by constantly improving your skills.
02 Plan your money
As the old saying goes: if you are not poor in food and use, you will not be poor in life.
Plan your money reasonably, don't overdraw, know moderation, and every penny you save is the confidence to fight against life.
During the epidemic, when many units were unable to pay wages normally, many people lost their regular income and had to overdue their mortgages, car loans, and even sold their houses directly because they could not repay their loans.
Although her friend Chen Xi was also out of work, she used this time to accompany her children and family, and also taught herself the piano music she had always wanted to try.
When I asked her why everyone else was anxious about the plummeting income, she took it easy. She told me that she had set aside an emergency fund for her family long before she got married, and that she would put money into this account every month in case she needed it.
The children's education funds and the family's living expenses have been planned one by one. It can be said that "there is food in the pocket, and there is no panic in the heart".
Rational planning of money and desire to control it is the real wealth and happiness.
03 Invest in health
Xiamen Hospital of Traditional Chinese Medicine once received such a patient:
He has lived a life of day and night upside down for a long time, and often invites friends to drink and supper at night.
Sleeping during the day, going out at night, this time because he was drunk and unconscious, he was taken to the hospital by a friend.
A blood test was taken and found that he not only had alcoholic liver, blood sugar, blood lipids and uric acid had exceeded the standard, but also had hypocalcemia and vitamin D deficiency in kidney metabolism.
Doctors rated him as a 30-year-old body, 70-year-old biochemical indicators.
We always think that we are still young, and the disease is far away from us, but we don't know that the habits of life reversed day and night, the short-term happiness after singing and indulging in alcohol, let ourselves go through the danger for a long time, and only at the moment of sudden scrapping suddenly understand that the most unoverdrawn is the body.
04 Save emotions
There is a hot topic on Weibo: "How can I maintain a long-term relationship?" ”
One of the highly praised answers, which touched me deeply: "Save for emotional accounts." ”
In fact, there is an invisible emotional account between people, and only when both parties pay and go both ways, can they keep their feelings and relationships. If you blindly ask for and overdraft your account, no matter how deep your feelings were, they will only drift away.
A kind greeting, a kind reminder, and a warm word are all saving, and when you need help from others one day, you will have a balance available.
I'm early summer, and I'm with you
