Chapter 92
According to common sense, Wang Gang's qualifications and ability should have been promoted to the head of the department, but he is still an ordinary employee.In his eyes, the people in the company are all incompetent people, Zhang San Li Si has become the object of his comments, Wang Wu and Zhao Liu are not his opponents, and he doesn't even pay attention to the company's boss. A smug, condescending look.However, due to his strong work ability, the company leaders also wanted to promote him, but when it came to the assessment, his colleagues said that it was not easy to work with him, and they did not express their willingness to work in the department he was in charge of.In this way, Wang Gang became a "lonely man", and when the bosses talked about him, they always shook their heads helplessly and said: "He is just arrogant and has too strong a personality."

The root cause of Wang Gang's inability to be promoted was that he believed himself to be superior and did not take anyone seriously.Therefore, you must remember not to rely on your talents, otherwise it will bring obstacles to your interpersonal relationship.

Mr. Huang is a proud son: born in a family of high-level intellectuals, he has excellent academic performance since he was a child, graduated from a prestigious university, and directly entered a well-known company after graduation, and was continuously promoted. He looks handsome and unrestrained, as if he has taken all the benefits in the world.Mr. Huang also thinks that his life is almost perfect. The only shortcoming is that he is not popular. Mr. Huang believes that it must be because others are jealous of him that he doesn't like him.Is this really true?

Mr. Huang didn't know that people around him secretly called him "Mr. Peacock" because he loved to show off too much.During the college entrance examination, his good friend Meng did not perform well and only passed the entrance examination to a junior college. As a result, he ran to other people's homes with his acceptance letter from a prestigious university, showed off in front of Meng's parents, and kept asking questions. The situation at the school that Meng was going to seemed to be competing with others. As a result, Meng's mother became seriously ill for three days, and Meng never contacted him again.When he was in college, his roommates were the only ones with the best conditions. The others were either from rural areas or working-class families. So Mr. Huang began to show off his well-educated parents and his brand-name watches in front of his roommates. His behavior was serious. It hurt the self-esteem of the roommates, and they wanted to throw Mr. Huang out.After work, Mr. Huang began to show off his diploma from a famous school and the respect of his boss to his colleagues. Now his colleagues regard him as a thorn in their side. Let's see how long this 'peacock' can last, we won't stop until we drive him away!"

In the workplace, there are indeed quite a few people like Mr. Huang. They are busy showing off themselves all day long and want to provoke a competition at any time. As a result, no matter where they go, they will arouse disgust and boredom from others.Although people's ability is divided into high and low, and people's grades are different, but they hate failure and don't want to face the darkness of failure all the time. This mentality is the same for everyone.Those who like to engage in interpersonal competition are exactly the opposite of everyone's desire to avoid failure.They insist on forcing you to face the embarrassment of failure, constantly reminding you: You are behind in this area, you are outdated in that area, your demeanor is too bad, and your work is too hard.They may think that the superiority they "created" can win them respect and admiration, but the actual effect is often: they seem to be a signal to wake up the sense of failure. When they see them, people will instinctively feel depressed, The instinctive approach is to run away.

Not only that, people who like to show off in communication often choose their "strengths" to publicize. They are so eager to win that they seldom consider the other party's value standards and hobbies.It is too naive to think that you can attract others by being better than others. These people don't know that in fact, what people like most are those who do not threaten and challenge themselves.This is not to say that people are weak and envious of others being better than themselves.

So, if you want to gain popularity and have more friends, then remember never to show off yourself in front of others, your showing off will only make others wary and alienate you.You might as well talk about your frustrations and failures with your friends. In this way, your friends will not despise you, but will understand and support you more.

Thick Black New Mysteries

One of the taboos of smart people is to show off and despise others.Such a person makes other people feel very uncomfortable. Not only will they fail to achieve the purpose of promoting themselves, but they will be jealous and attacked by others.It is a good thing to be talented, but if you brag about yourself, you will damage your talent and ability; it is a good thing to be high, but if you are proud of yourself, you will belittle your dignity and your position.Therefore, in the workplace, no matter when and where, people should maintain humility, lower their posture, work diligently, and behave in a low-key manner.Don't show your sharpness does not mean eroding your sharpness, but means that people should hide their sharpness, and don't rely on their talents to be aggressive.Muxiu will be destroyed by forest wind, and the thick and black theory of the workplace believes that if you are too revealing, self-confident, clever, too arrogant, and show your sharpness, your troubles and disasters will begin.

The boss is always stronger than you, don't let your light be too dazzling.
[Zongwu Mantra] I have such a big defect in my nature. Is it true that the ancients said that "the one who gives the teeth loses his horns, and the one who gives the wings loses both feet"?
In the workplace, some people think they are talented, like to express themselves, and are used to showing off.At work, in order to let the boss see his intelligence and excellence, he found a way to display his talents in front of the boss and talk about things.

However, you have to know that as a boss, no one is willing to think that his ability is inferior to that of his subordinates, and there are very few people who do not have the desire to gain fame.A subordinate who is used to pointing fingers and making irresponsible remarks in front of the boss will overshadow the boss's light, making the boss feel that he is not as good as you in some aspects, and thus feel unhappy in his heart.It's fine if you meet a tolerant and open-minded boss, but it's hard to say if you meet a narrow-minded and competitive boss.The workplace thick black theory believes that showing off in front of others, especially in front of the boss, is actually an unwise behavior, and there is a danger of capsizing and falling.

During the Three Kingdoms period, there was an extremely intelligent man named Yang Xiu, styled Dezu, who was an official under Cao Cao.He once rode with Cao Cao in front of the Cao E stele, and saw eight characters engraved on the stele: "Huang Juan, young woman, grandson, Tongjiu".Yang Xiu understood it at a glance, but Cao Cao didn't understand it.Therefore, he asked Yang Xiu not to say the answer, but to think for himself.After another 30 miles, Cao Cao figured it out. He and Yang Xiu paired up and the answer was "excellent and good words".Cao sighed: "My wisdom is 30 miles worse than Yang Xiu's." Although he said this, he felt uncomfortable after all.

Once, Cao Cao built a garden. After it was completed, he went to watch it. He didn't comment, but just wrote the word "living" on the door and left.Everyone was puzzled, Yang Xiu said: "The word 'huo' added to the 'door' is also the word 'kuo'. The prime minister thinks the door is too wide." The supervisor immediately ordered the craftsmen to rebuild it. When Cao Cao went to see it again , Overjoyed, asked: "Who knows what I mean?" The left and right told: "Yang Xiu also." Although Cao Cao was happy, he was very jealous.

Later, someone gave Cao Cao a box of crisps. Before he could eat them, he wrote the words "a box of crisps" on the box and put it on the desk.As soon as Cao Cao left, Yang Xiu took out the crisps in the box and shared them with everyone. Cao Cao asked why, and Yang Xiu said: "It is clearly written on the box that'one person, one bite of crisps', how dare you disobey the prime minister's order?" , I hate it in my heart.

There is another thing. Usually Cao Cao was worried about being assassinated, so he said to the people around him: "I like to kill people in my dreams. Don't come near me when I'm asleep." Pick him up and cover him.Cao Cao drew his sword and killed him, then fell asleep again.After getting up, he pretended to ask, "Who killed my servant?" Everyone told the truth, Cao Cao wept bitterly, and ordered a burial.Everyone thought that Cao Cao was killed by mistake in a dream, but seeing Cao Cao weeping bitterly and having a lavish funeral, not only did they not blame Cao Cao, but they also praised Cao Cao.Before the burial, Yang Xiu pointed to the deceased and said: "The prime minister is not in a dream, but the king is in a dream." After hearing this, Cao Cao became more jealous and wanted to find an opportunity to punish this "capable man".

Later, Cao Cao's army fought against Liu Bei in the Hanshui. The two armies faced each other, and they were invincible for a long time.While he was meditating, Xiahou Dun entered the tent and asked for the night password.Cao Cao said casually: "Chicken ribs!" Yang Xiu, the chief of the army, heard that the night password was "chicken ribs", and immediately asked the soldiers to pack their bags and prepare to return.Xiahou Dun hurriedly asked why.Yang Xiu said: "Those with chicken ribs have no meat to eat, and it's a pity to discard them. The prime minister means that now you can't win if you advance, and if you retreat, people will laugh. It's useless here. It's better to return early. In the future, the king of Wei will be a teacher." Originally, Cao Cao When he was in a dilemma, he really wanted to return to the north, but when he saw that Yang Xiu broke his mind again, he was very annoyed, so he yelled: "How dare you make words and disturb our army's morale."

The above incidents reveal Yang Xiu's unique ingenuity everywhere. In contrast, Cao Cao thinks that his wisdom is 30 miles away from Yang Xiu's, and he is both envious and jealous of Yang Xiu. There will never be good results.In the end, Cao Cao finally killed Yang Xiu easily under the pretext of "disturbing our army's morale".Yang Xiu's death corresponds to an old Chinese saying: cleverness is misunderstood by cleverness.

The traditional Chinese concept believes that one has a talent to be a first-level official.The talents of the subordinates surpassed those of the superiors, and even though they were not as powerful as their masters, they were enough to make the boss tremble with fear and feel a sense of crisis.This phenomenon of shocking the main body is a taboo in official circles.Although some people in power also love talented people, but when they find that their talents are amazing, far surpassing themselves, they would rather use slaves than talents.Yang Xiu committed this taboo and ran into Cao Cao's hands.Yang Xiu died because he liked to show himself too much. Guessing the inscription on the stele, guessing the wide characters, guessing a box of crisps, these are all small games, Cao Cao may not be able to put him to death; Cao Cao dreamed of killing the guards, Yang Xiu He pointed out sharply: "The prime minister is not in a dream", which exposed Cao Cao's tricks and made it difficult for Cao Cao to tolerate him; as for him breaking the meaning of "chicken ribs" on the front line and making soldiers ready to go home, this is a violation of military regulations. Doesn't he know?Just trying to show off his wits for a while, regardless of the law and discipline, no wonder Cao Cao wanted to take the opportunity to kill him.Cao Cao's poisonous hands can be said to be "tricked" by Yang Xiu's too shrewd.

In the same way, in the workplace, if an employee is too smart and behaves better than the boss in everything, the boss will have the idea that he is inferior to his subordinates, as if everything is reversed, and he becomes a subordinate, while the subordinate becomes Boss, his heart can be imagined, and what will follow will be making things difficult for you, blaming, excluding, and attacking you. Although your experience will not be as miserable as Yang Xiu's, your life in the company will not be as miserable. It will be better, and it will be difficult to stay in the company any longer.

Before Zheng Dong entered this big company, he only worked in a small company with shallow qualifications and inexperience.He came here to work with trepidation, and the boss who took him was a woman who looked very hearty.On the first day, the boss let him read the documents all morning, and then asked him if he had any questions, and he truthfully said "no".When he was about to get off work, the boss arranged for him to send several emails, inquire with several foreign companies, and then give quotations to several domestic companies.These tasks are similar to those in his previous position. In order to show his ability, Zheng Dong quickly completed the work assigned to him by the boss, and put the completed homework in front of the boss. The boss reviewed it carefully. There is no problem with Chinese and Chinese, and the boss has no praise or criticism.Zheng Dong felt that his performance was okay, and his heart was very peaceful.

Later, the boss sent Zheng Dong to do something. It sounded very simple, just find someone, hand over the materials to that person, and you're done.Zheng Dong wanted to make a good impression in the new company, so he prepared sufficient materials and imagined all the unexpected situations along the way.When I got there, the person I was looking for was not there, and I didn't bring enough money that I should have paid.Fortunately, he found an old classmate and paid his own money to go in.When the boss sat there, waiting for him to complain and ask for advice with a determined expression, what he handed over was another good homework.Zheng Dong thought that his performance at the beginning should be good, and the boss must have a good impression of him.But what upset Zheng Dong was that he was not treated well in the company.Serving tea and pouring water, and running errands are always done by Zheng Dong, while Xiao Lu, who is procrastinating and error-prone, always gets special attention from the boss, and assigns all good errands to Xiao Lu.

Whenever Zheng Dong reported the work results to the boss, the boss's expression was always indifferent, without the praise and appreciation he expected.For the little road that he thought was lost, the boss was patient and just tolerant.When it came time for the year-end evaluation, Zheng Dong, who did not make any mistakes, got a low score, and those old employees who were not better than him got higher scores than him.

Confused, Zheng Dong didn't know where he was wrong, and was full of grievances. He finally found the "truth" by chance.That day, he accompanied a friend who was an interior decorator to the site, and he was not surprised to see his distressed and regretful expression when he examined the impeccable house.The room type of that house was perfectly designed, spacious and bright.The owner is very proud, but the friend is a bit regretful. There is no room for improvement, and there is no defect that needs to be deliberately concealed. The experienced friend feels a little bit "heroes have no use for their abilities".Zheng Dong realized that when a designer meets a house that can score 95 points, just like a makeup artist meets Brigitte Lin or Rosamund Kwan in their prime, they will have the regret of not being able to show their talents.This is the truth in the workplace. You are a newcomer, you know everything, and you are proficient in everything. Where do you put me as a leader?Who else do I mentor?How do other colleagues in the office demonstrate their abilities?You are better than him, of course, it means that he has no "market".

A person with no flaws is the boss's least favorite.Any leader with ambition, ambition, and strategy will like to transform people and show his might.Even talents should be cultivated by him.

Zheng Dong is quite clever, and after understanding this, he has learned to behave himself since then.Later, every time he changed companies, Zheng Dong dealt with his boss with 10 points of intellect.After he became the boss himself, he also found that those newcomers who never made mistakes in their work and didn't seem to need his guidance were not cute at all.For a newcomer in the office, it is best to have a house that can score 75 points, and a face that can score 80 points.In this way, the "old people" can slowly repair you and fully enjoy the happiness after "becoming a woman".If the score is lower than the above, the rotten wood cannot be carved, and the "old people" don't like it either.In fact, it is not necessarily a good thing to act recklessly blindly. Properly showing one's "deficiencies" in front of the boss may sometimes receive unexpected results.

Therefore, people who are good at dealing with the world often deliberately leave some flaws in obvious places so that people can see at a glance that he "even got such a simple thing wrong".In this way, even though you are outstanding and outstanding, others will not respect you at a distance. Once he finds out that "you are also at fault", he will shorten the distance between him and you.

In fact, properly placing yourself a little lower is tantamount to raising others a lot.When being promoted by others, who still has the hostility that cannot be put down?You must know that only when the leader teaches others, his self-esteem and prestige can be properly displayed, and at this time, his vanity can be satisfied.

If your boss entrusts you to do a job impeccably, and you seem to be superior to the boss, your boss may feel that your position is in jeopardy, and your colleagues may think that you like to show off and show off.Do you feel relaxed in such an atmosphere?
