The Subconscious Mind and the Sixth Sense

Chapter 40 The Most Difficult East Wind - Luck (7)
Everyone has their own emotions, and emotions are a very naughty thing, sometimes it is as unpredictable as a child, but no matter how naughty it is, you must find a way to hold it tightly.Because it is related to whether we can live a comfortable life in society, and it is also the success factor that allows us to win thousands of miles.

In life, in the face of different environments and different opponents, sometimes the method used is not critical, but maintaining one's emotions is the most important.Be the master of your own emotions, after controlling your emotions, you can easily handle all the problems, and your destiny will be firmly in your hands.

Double Standards: Is Focusing on the Little Things Contradicting Being in Control of the Big Picture?
[This world is the big picture and small things. The orientation of the big picture affects the development of small things, and the development of small things will change the nature of the big picture. 】

What is small?What is big?
In "The Analects of Confucius", "If you see small profits, you can't accomplish great things", people who are greedy for small profits can't do big things.

"The embankment of a thousand miles collapses in an ant's nest", a small leak can cause an unimaginable catastrophe.

"Small intolerance can lead to chaos in big plans", a small temper affects the overall planning.

"One mistake will cause eternal hatred", small omissions cause big regrets.

"Be careful sailing for ten thousand years", carefulness in the details can keep the overall safety, and the road ahead will be smoother.

"Four or two to pull a thousand catties" is to take advantage of the situation to let small things play a big role and achieve twice the result with half the effort.

The "small" and "big" in the old sayings listed above are actually the mutual influence of small things and the overall situation.

Everything in the world, no matter how big or small, is composed of small things inside it, and these small things are related according to the essential laws of the thing to form the overall situation.The essential law hides the origin, and the origin is the basis of the small things of things.

From this, it can be fully understood that all the "little things" and the "big picture" can be transformed into each other.

The famous American psychologist Ken Wilber described it in his book "One Taste": "You and all other beings are in a one-to-all relationship, although this is incredible to common sense. Therefore, Your life is not only a small part of the whole existence, but it is in a sense a whole in its own right. So you can lie flat on the ground and stretch out on Mother Earth, convinced that you and her are one. You Standing firm just like her, Invulnerable is even a thousand times stronger than her. Of course, she will devour you in the future, but she will definitely bring you back out to face new struggles and sufferings. And neither Just 'someday': She brings you out now, today and every day, not just once, but a million times, just as she devours you a thousand times a day. These words do not come from A 'mystic' who ambiguously speaks from the clear mind of an expert in quantum mechanics."

Ken Wilbur was right.Everyone is a tiny part, and it is helpless to occupy only that tiny part in the connection of the overall situation, just like a drop in the ocean.However, when you fully integrate yourself into this whole, you will find that you have powerful energy.

A high level is a generalization of a low level.Points form lines, lines form planes, planes form volumes, and volumes form systems.The structural hierarchy of the big picture and the little things is just such a hierarchy from low to high.This is also a network of relationships formed by anything in the world.

The overall situation is formed on the accumulation of some small things, so its concrete manifestation lies in each small thing.It's people's job to get all the little things done, but not the big picture.A machine is advanced because every part is advanced.

The big picture and the little things affect each other.The orientation of the big picture affects the development of small things, and the development of small things will change the nature of the big picture.Because of the connection between small things and the big picture, small things can reflect some information about the big picture.Small things in isolation cannot be understood and can be put into the context of the big picture.When the big picture and the little things support and complement each other, it is possible to ensure that things develop in an orderly manner.If the relationship between the two contradicts or even destroys each other, thereby affecting their respective functions, it will make each other shrink and it will be difficult to play their own roles.

The principle of the relationship between the big picture and small things can be extended to the effect of teamwork in life. A work organization is a big picture, and anyone and everything in the team organization are small things.

In an organization, in many cases, the cooperative members cannot be selected, so it is very likely that the members in the group have different abilities in various aspects.If you are a leader, you need a good cohesive ability at this time, which can unite the characteristics of most team members in all aspects. At the same time, it also requires the leader to have the ability to get along and communicate well with different people.If leaders do not lead by example in all aspects of their work at the beginning, many undesirable consequences will occur.

As the saying goes: "People are united, Mount Tai is moved." At the same time, leaders must have the demeanor of a leader, strictly require members at work, care about members in life, and do a good job in communication and coordination among team members. Make the whole team work in an orderly and harmonious way like a machine.

Therefore, coordinated teamwork can achieve twice the result with half the effort, and can make the work move forward better.

It is worth noting that teamwork is not just a simple calculation of one plus one equals two.

In 1967, at the Moscow Air Show, the MiG-25 new Soviet-made fighter made its debut, and its outstanding performance shocked Western military observers.In the following nearly 10 years, the MiG-25 created 8 world records for flight speed, 9 flight altitudes, and 6 climb times. I want to find out the technical connotation of MiG-25.But the Soviets did a good job of keeping secrets, and the MiG-25 became a mystery for a while.

On September 1976, 9, a Soviet Air Force lieutenant defected to Hokkaido, Japan, driving a MiG-6 fighter plane. Experts from the United States rushed to the scene and began to dismantle the aircraft, trying to figure out what the MiG-25 used Such advanced technology.The results surprised these experts: the technology used in this aircraft is not advanced compared with Western fighters. For example, the electronic equipment of this aircraft is very bulky, a large number of outdated vacuum tubes are used, and the technology is rough.However, the overall combat performance of the MiG-25 is well-deserved, reaching or even surpassing the fighters of the same era in Western countries. Why?
The reason for this phenomenon is that MiG Company considered the overall situation in the design, and carried out a very coordinated combination design for the parts, so that the machine can achieve the best effect in terms of lifting, speed, stress response, etc., so the overall situation The performance surpasses that of Western fighters.This peculiar effect produced by combination and coordination is called "MiG-25 effect" by later generations.

The MiG-25 effect refers to whether the internal structure of a thing is reasonable or not, which will affect its overall function.If the structure is reasonable, the overall situation will be greater than the sum of the details; if the structure is unreasonable, the overall function will be attenuated.

This effect has long been grasped by our ancients, such as the Tian Ji horse race we are familiar with. After Tian Ji failed in the first race, after being instructed by Sun Bin, he used the same three horses for a rematch. The result was two wins and one loss.

Whether the MiG-25 effect is greater than two or one plus one less than two in practical applications depends on whether the team organizational structure can effectively exert the overall effectiveness and whether the resultant force generated by the strength of each person in the team can be achieved. Far greater than the simple addition of individuals.

Jobs once said: "I used to think that one outstanding person can top two mediocre employees, and now I think it can top 50." In addition to Jobs' Law, Albrecht's Law states: "When a group of smart people are incorporated into an organization, the result is often collective stupidity."

In 1999, a NASA weather satellite mission failed because one group of engineers wrote programs using the metric system of kilometers and kilograms, while another group used the imperial system of miles and pounds.

It can be seen from this that the cooperation between people is not a simple addition of human power, but much more complex and subtle.People are like energies in different directions. When they promote each other, they get twice the result with half the effort, but when they conflict with each other, they achieve nothing.Teams are prone to five dysfunctions: lack of trust, fear of conflict, lack of commitment, avoidance of responsibility, and disregard for results.They're not independent of each other, they actually have a chain reaction that together form a pattern that makes each of them a potentially deadly team killer.

Therefore, team leaders should clarify their roles, gradually strengthen the relationship with team members, be good at motivating others, establish friendly relationships, and deal with different people in different ways; they must clarify team goals, coordinate interpersonal conflicts, and strengthen team members. The trust relationship between them; the team leader must carefully plan for the future, train subordinates, and allow new members to quickly integrate into the team.

Again, the world is made up of countless big and small things.Everything is composed of the big picture and the small things. The small things combined with the big picture is the most common and basic structure, and their relationship is also the most common and basic relationship.

Because nothing and nothing exists in isolation, as long as it exists, it must be related to other things.In this relationship, the relationship appears as the overall situation, and any party in this relationship is a trivial matter, which can be referred to as Party A and Party B for short.

It can be said that everything is a big picture or a small matter, which is determined according to the internal and external relations.When a relationship occurs within a thing, this thing appears in the face of the overall situation.The internal relations of things interact according to their essential laws.A thing that is related to anything other than itself appears as a trifle.The external relationship of a thing also interacts with other things according to its essential laws.

Everything in the world is composed of small things inside it, and it also has a relationship with other things. Therefore, everything is both a big picture and a small thing.

The big picture is everywhere, and the little things are everywhere.

For example, in the overall situation of a factory, the boss is a trivial matter, and so are the employees.Outside of the factory, the boss is in charge of the overall situation, and the employees are also in charge of the overall situation.They all have their own lives and thoughts.

Another example is a molecule, an atom, or something, there are always small things that make up inside it, and it always has a relationship with something outside it.

However, in real life, the importance of small things in the big picture is often overlooked by many people.For a small matter to play a role in the overall situation, it depends on its essential law and its relationship with other small things.The law of essence is issued by its own internal source. Without this source, essence does not exist, and small things cease to exist.

Ignoring the big picture of small things is actually ignoring the origin of things.

For example, the leader ignores the overall situation of the employees, insists on the work of the employees, and ignores the incentives for the employees, without initiative and enthusiasm, will it be okay?This is just inert, and going one step further, there is a good way to not want to, and there are plenty of naughty things.

The reverse is also true, employees do not see the overall situation of the boss, how about the boss?Not just an attribute of the boss, he is also a normal person.

The small and the big have always been one, and the big and the small never contradict each other. All the efforts on the small things are to create the harmony and perfection of the overall situation. The harmony of the overall situation is also fulfilled by the brilliance of the small things.

Calmly be a person who understands the details and the general situation.Find a perfect fit in the delicate "big" and "little" relationships.It is the real great wisdom to make flowers with wonderful hands and play with life.
