You are smart if you are not smart

Being outdone by others is irritating, so if your boss is outdone by you, it's not only stupid for you, it can even be deadly.To lead is always to show that you are superior to everyone else in everything that matters.The king likes to be assisted, but he doesn't like to be surpassed.

Not letting your own light overshadow your boss shows enough respect for your boss.Only by being humble and courteous and doing our best can we get the attention, care and love of the leaders, and the relationship between superiors and subordinates can achieve positive interaction and harmony.

In the ancient state of Cheshi, there was a capable official who pacified the people and quelled the riots after the catastrophe.He encouraged the people to cultivate fields and plant mulberries and rebuild their homes.After several years of governance, the local society is stable and the people live and work in peace and contentment. This official has won the support of the people.

One day, the emperor suddenly summoned him to an audience. Before he left, one of the official's counselors came to see him and asked him: "If the emperor asks you how to govern the country, how do you plan to answer?" The official replied frankly: "I will It is said that the appointment of talented people will make people do their best, strictly enforce the law, and clearly distinguish rewards and punishments." The counselor shook his head again and again: "No, boasting like this will make you jealous of the emperor. You must say that the credit is due to the emperor's governance of the country Fang." The official suddenly realized.

Therefore, when the emperor summoned them, the officials repeatedly declined the rewards, saying that it was due to the emperor's mighty influence that the people could live and work in peace and contentment.The emperor was really happy and rewarded him with many jewels and entrusted him with important tasks.

Being a subordinate is the most taboo to take credit and be conceited.Many facts in ancient and modern China and abroad have proved that the time of great achievements is often the day of falling out of favor.Bosses who don’t care about being compared and value talents are rare after all. In most people’s hearts, there are more or less jealous "will-o'-the-wisps". If you are around you, you will feel overshadowed, and you will have the association that your status has been shaken by you. They will naturally regard you as a competitor and a serious problem, and you are already facing a disaster without knowing it. .

Success scientist Carnegie said that when people communicate with each other, only when they respect each other can communication activities go smoothly.If you always suppress the other party and force the other party to submit to yourself, the other party will soon develop hostility towards you and lose trust in you.Therefore, it is particularly important to let the other party be the protagonist in interpersonal communication.Especially in front of people whose status is much higher than your own, it is better to satisfy the other party's sense of dominance than to be the dominance yourself.

People who think they are superior are always annoying, and they are especially likely to provoke the jealousy of their superiors.No boss likes being always surpassed by his subordinates. He always thinks that he has rich work experience and life experience, strong organizational and management capabilities, and the ability to control the overall situation.In front of your boss, if you always act superior to him, he will definitely resent you, and you will easily be disgusted by your colleagues.

Not only that, many bosses look down on those who boast the most. After a little achievement, they are arrogant and do not want to make progress. Such people will not be promoted and reused.Although sometimes the boss is indeed far inferior to you in a certain aspect, as a subordinate, you still have to pay attention.When talking to your boss, don't be aggressive, don't be sarcastic; don't comment behind your back;You must know that these are acts of contempt for your boss. You can easily be regarded by your boss as a person who is arrogant and likes to contradict, so you will not be trusted by your boss.Also, you should never forget that there is something special about someone who makes him a boss, and if you are always showing off, you are likely to make a fool of yourself in front of him.Learn to respect your boss and know how to be humble and introspective, which can show your humility and prudence.

In the workplace, no matter how high you are, no matter how much credit you have, learning to bow your head in front of the leader and let him take the lead will benefit you endlessly.When you achieve something, the leader is also honored and will continue to support you.Your "prosperity" is based on the happiness and satisfaction of your boss. The latter's jealousy and framing are definitely not the cornerstone of your success.
