2009 was a thrilling year, and entrepreneurs fully felt what ice and fire were. Many enterprises have no business in the first half of the year, and they are overwhelmed in the second half. The roller coaster-like changes have made entrepreneurs feel happy and stressed.
Good mentality, little pressure.
Guo Wei, Chairman and CEO of Digital China Holdings Limited, has worked hard in Zhongguancun, Beijing for more than 20 years. He made the digital China spun off from Lenovo bigger and bigger, and he was used to the rise and fall of enterprises in the village. He believes that as a manager, especially the top leader, you must have a good attitude and a strong quality of bearing pressure.
As the helm of the enterprise, entrepreneurs will face various pressures. The first thing we encounter is the operating pressure, especially the competition from all walks of life has been in the fierce "Red Sea", which has caused more and more operating pressure. Entrepreneurs with a bad attitude are likely to collapse, but if they keep a positive attitude from the beginning and regard stress as a challenge and motivation, the harm of stress will be minimized. Guo Wei feels that choosing to be an entrepreneur is a very fun job. He believes that entrepreneurs are born to solve problems to some extent, and human beings are constantly developing, and there is no hurdle to pass; As a leader, no matter how bad the external environment is, no matter how difficult it is, you should be as tall and straight as a pine tree. This mentality makes him work with great enthusiasm every day. In this state of mind, any pressure is relative and can be solved.
If Guo Wei's IT industry is a thin industry, then Mother Runchang's futures industry is a ups and downs industry. Mu Runchang, the general manager of Beijing Intermediate Futures Co., Ltd., went into the sea from 1993 and set foot in the torrent of futures 17. As we all know, the futures industry is under great pressure and the market is extremely unstable. The ups and downs of the futures industry are common. Many old futures people eventually climbed ashore scarred, and some did not even climb ashore. However, Runchang's mother walked all the way, cheerful and steady, as if she didn't feel too much pressure. In the futures work, mother Runchang has made mistakes in judgment and made losses, but she can control the risks every time and will never get out of hand. Even if he lost twice, he kept an optimistic attitude, summed up his experience and fought again next time. He said that at all stages of life, it is impossible without stress. What matters is how to face it correctly. One of the most critical is the attitude towards life. "I am a very positive and optimistic person. Treating work and study has always been proactive, constantly pursuing perfection, and doing the best if you want to do it. "
Looking at people and society, Mother Runchang pays attention to the positive side rather than the negative side, which is related to his love of learning history. He said that many problems, especially those that feel great pressure, if observed in the long river of history, will be found to be both historical necessity and instantaneous feelings. If you think like this often, your mind will be calm and relaxed. Time is a good medicine to relieve stress.
Guo Lai, Party Secretary of Henan Anyang Power Supply Company, was born in 1996, engaged in enterprise management. 200 1 Director of Puyang Power Supply Bureau, Henan Province. He believes that stress is related to the individual's mentality of doing things. When a person's enterprising consciousness is particularly strong, he doesn't feel any pressure. When encountering problems and pressures, he is often regarded as an opportunity and challenge to reflect his own values.
A positive attitude brings a sunny life. What kind of life is the least stressful? Mother Runchang believes that this is a harmonious life. In particular, he does not agree with the way of "playing hard", and thinks that a perfect and happy life needs three pillars: career, health and affection, which complement each other.
Find the right way to decompress.
It is not terrible for entrepreneurs to encounter pressure. The terrible thing is that there is no way to decompress. Zong Qingsheng, assistant to the president of China Minmetals Corporation and general manager of the investment management department, feels that the pressure mainly comes from achieving the goal. He said that China people are more enterprising and often set more goals for themselves. Once they encounter problems in the process of achieving their goals, they will feel more pressure.
Risk is directly proportional to stress. The greater the risk, the greater the pressure. It is important to control risks. Mother Runchang has encountered many problems and risks in the futures industry. He has done many thrilling transactions to force customers to liquidate their positions, but he never believes in such self-deception as "seeking wealth and risk", but acts on the premise of controlling risks. Controlling risks is related to the ability to predict and grasp the market. The more you can see the general trend clearly and find out the development direction of things, the more you can control risks. He said, "No matter what kind of work we are engaged in, we should be good at learning and summarizing, summing up laws, exploring the future, and truly turning knowledge into wisdom. In this way, we will make use of the situation in our work, accept and withdraw freely, and success will outweigh failure."
Guo Xisheng encountered a problem that could not be solved at the moment, and he was also very depressed. "In the face of problems, I used to like to cut the gordian knot and couldn't wait to find the best solution immediately. But some things can't be solved by emphasizing' fast'. If you don't have to do it right away, let it go first, maybe it will be inspired later. " He has worked in Puyang Power Supply Bureau for many years and is familiar with employees. When he was a director, he encountered one thing-a diversified business department under his command was restructured and a group of employees had to adjust. Without adjustment, it is difficult to improve the efficiency of this unit. Many employees who need to be adjusted are people who have worked with him for many years. At first, Guo Laisheng couldn't bear to do this, but he had to do it again. At that time, he was very contradictory and depressed, and he couldn't find a good way at the moment. One day, watching a TV program by chance, an entrepreneur answered how to deal with the relationship between the veteran entrepreneur and the airborne professional manager, saying that he should give preferential treatment to the veteran entrepreneur politically and economically, but he should stop taking care of it; For airborne professional managers, they have the right and responsibility to hire with high salary and strict assessment. The entrepreneur's answer suddenly made Guo Laisheng's mood suddenly clear, and he took the medicine according to the prescription. As a result, this diversified enterprise quickly recovered its vitality: in the past, it needed to subsidize 2 million yuan every year, but after adjustment, it made a profit of 4 million yuan that year, and the employees who were adjusted were calm and had no psychological problems.
When facing pressure, Guo Laisheng likes to do two things. First, exercise, born in a sweat, makes the pressure seem to be released, and then slowly try to solve it. The second is to find someone to chat with. Maybe someone else can "wake up the dreamer" with a word. Zong Qingsheng also likes to chat with acquaintances or browse the news on the Internet, but he does more exercise. He insists on walking for an hour every day. When walking, he thought nothing in his mind, as if he had done a mental relaxation exercise.
When Guo Wei is under pressure, he likes to communicate with the team and think of ways together. In addition, he likes running, and feels that this sport is both an outlet and an exercise. He often advises his colleagues to run hard on the treadmill for 40 minutes when they feel stressed, and the pressure will naturally decrease when they sweat. He often goes abroad and is often sleepy because of jet lag. At this time, he did not have a passive rest, but insisted on running and exercising, and it was easy to fall asleep after running.
Cheng Jiashu, president of Celanese China District, likes reading. When he is under pressure, he will find a favorite book. When he read, he almost forgot all the pressure. He likes reading literature and history books best, and feels that the process of reading is a kind of relaxation.
In the process of enterprise development, pressure will come at any time, and entrepreneurs are often Depth Charge under pressure. Runchang's mother concluded that it is very important to deal with stress in three aspects: first, we must have firm beliefs, firmly believe in the prospects of enterprises, and believe in our own struggle; Second, we must be strong-willed, persevere and actively solve problems when we encounter them. I believe that the solution to the problem must be much more difficult; Third, take resolute and timely action, only action can find a solution to the problem.
