The story of the woodcutter and the shepherd has only a middle part, no head and no tail, and everyone is just guided. To correctly analyze the meaning of this picture, we need to look at it from different angles and get different results.
It seems that the woodcutter got nothing. One day's chat made the woodcutter return empty-handed. Did he just talk to the shepherd? However, if you look at it from another angle, the woodcutter is set as a wise man, and there are the following views:
1, you cut wood, he herded sheep, and you talked to him all day.
On the surface, he didn't get anything, but if the story is like this, the woodcutter cut firewood on a hill for n days, and all the firewood on this hill was cut. He was afraid that other hills might not have the firewood he wanted. He had to make a trip without time and cut a lot of firewood, so he had to have enough information, so he chatted with the shepherd and knew which mountain had more firewood and the road was easy, so he had enough information. Second, this is the man who sharpened the knife and chopped wood by mistake.
See clearly what you need before you do something, and be good at listening and thinking in communication. Usually, information from other people will help you, and everyone has something to learn.
You chop wood, and he tends sheep. You talked to him all day, his sheep were full, and he was still the herder.
And you know from his mouth that the business of roast sheep in restaurants is very hot recently, and the firewood for roast sheep is very particular and in short supply, so you stopped cutting firewood and continued to cut the original firewood, but changed it to firewood specially developed for roast sheep. Later, you hired some people to plant trees and cut firewood. Through frequent exchanges with shepherds, you learned about the changes in demand relations and finally dominated the firewood futures market. His son has just succeeded him as the next generation of shepherds.
What you see as ineffective socialization may be because you don't see the world in others' eyes. Talking with creative thinking will change your life.
I listened to the shepherd all day, but I didn't find any firewood.
However, I learned something about herding sheep through chatting. The next day, I sold the firewood I had cut before and bought some lambs. On the third day, I was cutting wood and herding sheep. N years later, the woodcutter hired someone else to herd sheep and chop wood.
Face it with a positive attitude, realize it with positive actions, and create your own world.
Overlooking the dream
The woodcutter chats with the shepherd. Do you know what they talked about? If there is no attractive chat content, that day will not pass. Therefore, the content of chat also determines the value of this kind of communication, and there will be different attitudes towards life.
1. You cut wood, he herded sheep. You talked with him all day, and you learned the skills of herding sheep. It turned out that the sheep were put like this, and he learned the skill of chopping wood. It turns out that firewood should be cut like this.
A threesome must have a teacher, always keep an empty cup to learn and achieve the best of yourself.
You chop wood, and he tends sheep. You talked with him for a day, and he decided to exchange his sheep for your firewood, so you got the sheep and he got the firewood.
Equivalence exchange, don't look down on anyone, everyone is unique.
You cut wood, he herded sheep. You talked to him all day, and he introduced you to his customers who buy sheep. You introduced your customers who buy firewood to him, and their business grew.
Resource integration is very important to make both sides bigger and bigger.
You chop wood, and he tends sheep. You talked with him all day, and you decided to open a whole sheep barbecue restaurant together. Your wood-roasted sheep are delicious, and his sheep are pure natural. After a few years, your business is booming.
There are no perfect individuals, only perfect teams.
Valuable chatting is the foundation of growth.
After reading so many interesting ideas, do you have any further ideas? In fact, this picture tells us a basic point:
First of all, no matter what you do, you must recognize your role.
Only by knowing what you want can you work hard in this direction. The shepherd is idle when the sheep eat grass, which is determined by his work; The kitchen knife is chopping wood. If you sit down and chat with others, you are not working well.
This is unclear about their role. And he sat down to chat with others, wasting valuable firewood cutting time. Because you spent all your time chatting and didn't see firewood, other people's sheep were idle for a day, and the shepherd completed the task and gained wealth.
But no matter how much wealth he has, it is impossible to give it to the woodcutter who chats with him. Therefore, the woodcutter can't do this. Because it will delay yourself.
Similarly, in the future work and study, we should always recognize our own situation, our own role and our own future, and work hard for it, just as Chairman Wang Jianlin, who broke the circle of friends yesterday, said: Set a small goal first, plan our own time, and take your time slowly, and it will always come true.
Secondly, remember not to waste your youth when you are working hard.
The shepherd's duty is to let the sheep graze freely. The nature of his work determines that he is relatively idle, seemingly nothing, but actually working. Woodmen are different. The nature of your job requires you to work hard, otherwise there will be no income. If he stops working and chats with the shepherd, he will not only have no income, but also waste a good time.
Do we just look around in our usual reading? Did you read it with a question and an idea? Did you make a simple record after reading it? The purpose of reading is also to improve yourself. Only by preparing for reading and recording your feelings can you improve yourself. Therefore, if we know our own needs and don't waste time trying to improve ourselves, we will see different ourselves.
In fact, in the final analysis, the understanding of anything needs to start from different angles and face it with different mentality, so that there will be different results. Work only determines the direction of your efforts, and the more important determinant is your own perspective and attitude.
Finally, I borrowed a sentence from Wang Jianlin to encourage everyone to be positive: first set a small goal that can be achieved, for example, make it 100 million yuan first, (the original meaning is: enlarge the goal, because the stage is as big as the heart) plan for three or five years, and then make the next goal. No matter where we are now, we must work hard for our future, and we still have dreams. What if they come true? Always clamoring for a date, but never taking the initiative to hook up. People who don't like it are too lazy to accept the pursuit of others. It's not that "deficiency is better than abuse", but I still refuse to be wronged. Sometimes I think it's good to be single, and I often envy others in pairs. This is the daily life of many single people.
