On the evening of August 21st, with the closing ceremony, Xiaoyi’s Kitchen’s fifth 21-day accompanying training camp officially came to an end. The closing ceremony started at 20:00 and lasted until 23:00. , everyone was still reluctant to leave and refused to leave for a long time. Looking at the avatars in the group that kept jumping, my heart was filled with infinite emotion.
Strictly speaking, Xiaoyi’s Kitchen is the first time that I have participated in community work at such a close distance. From the early stage of community preparation to the camp opening ceremony to the 21-day accompanying training to the camp closing ceremony. It’s the first time to make a community poster, the first time to learn to write copy, the first time to write a student handbook, the first time to prepare a manuscript for the opening and closing of a camp, etc. The first time in Xiaoyi's kitchen was much more than in the previous six months combined.
Xiaoyi’s Kitchen does not just connect to a certain group, but to friends from all walks of life. There are students, there are mothers who take care of their children full-time, there are micro-business people with great learning ability, there are beautiful nutritionists who are starting their own businesses, there are uncles who are loving to learn to cook for their families, and there are self-taught noodles who are working in real estate companies. Pastry chef...
Everyone has the same interests and hobbies and get together. Every day our style is like this. In the morning, someone opens the door to serve breakfast, and in the evening, someone closes the door to serve supper. If you have good things, don’t forget to share them in the group, and if you have good methods, don’t forget to share them in the group.
This time I participated in the fifth issue of Xiaoyi’s Kitchen. The nature of the free community is completely different from the free community I stayed in before. The free community means that there are more people reaching out, because it is free, everyone will It doesn't matter. As for the paid community, some people have been filtered out in the early stage of payment, and the students in it are people who are willing to spend time, energy and money to invest in themselves.
We discuss how to cook every day and write the story of kitchen and love with delicious food. Let’s feel the atmosphere of our daily chat:
What’s even more surprising is that Yangyang in the group said to me that since joining the group and texting me every day, the input method can no longer type. Today, I just hit it. bullion.
The students in the group all expressed that they wanted to change their nicknames
Ray Dalio once said: "If you don't think you were a fool a year ago now, it means you I haven’t learned anything this year.”
When I try to record the past in words, in just these short 21 days, I feel how stupid I was before.
So in the specific operating community, what pitfalls have I stepped on and what have I done. I have summarized the following points and share them with you.
1. Use the fragmented time that I usually have to browse my phone to do something
For example, as soon as I open my eyes every day, I will click on Xiaoyi’s kitchen on the top and take a look. Interact with the students through group chat conversations before going to bed last night and check-in status in the morning.
I will set an alarm clock in advance to remind myself when I send a group official account at noon or when I need to remind everyone that classes are about to start. This way you will never forget to post a message.
When I have time, I will check Teacher Xiaoyi’s WeChat to see if there is anything she needs me to do temporarily, and allocate my time reasonably. When others were scrolling through their phones, I saw the pictures posted and saved them for future assignment evaluation.
Later, search the chat content through WeChat and search for keywords, pictures and dates to check the homework again. Because homework is the finished product of everyone's hard work and time, it will also affect everyone's scoring, so it needs to be checked carefully and carefully.
I once asked Teacher Xiaoyi why Xiaoyi’s kitchen statistics do not use some small program to check in, so that later statistics will be much more convenient. Teacher Xiaoyi’s answer is: I like to see everyone posting pictures and interacting together in the group, rather than checking in coldly.
Integrate work into life, adjust your mentality at any time, be attentive, enthusiastic and sincere.
2. When doing tasks, you need to maintain a confirmed communication status at all times
At the end of the camp, I need to make graduation certificates and a family portrait for 9 people, as well as 15 posters and 3 gift packages. For a scholarship poster, these contents should be confirmed by Teacher Xiaoyi one day in advance before batch production.
Never cover your head before doing everything yourself. If you try to confirm again, the time you spent may have been wasted.
Confirm the communication first before doing it. Only with good understanding and communication skills can you perform tasks more smoothly. This logic must be there.
But in daily work, including myself, I will make such mistakes. As soon as I receive the task, I will do it first regardless of the details. The result can be imagined, that is, rework.
On the day the camp ended, I didn’t even have time to have dinner, so I was still rushing to draw the drawings. I was so rushed that I revised it several times during the process.
A problem is exposed here: things that are not determined must be confirmed in advance, and you cannot do things according to your own subjective consciousness. There are only so many hours in a day, and if you revise back and forth on the same thing, you won’t have the energy to do more. Fortunately, I finally caught the last train that day, but I reminded myself that next time I must communicate and confirm in advance before executing it.
It is important to arrange your time reasonably and confirm in advance to improve work efficiency.
3. Never overestimate your ability to handle many things
Food community operation is a very trivial job that requires a lot of time and energy. It is necessary to maintain high-frequency interactions with students in the group every day. It is not easy for one person to interact with dozens of people. And they need to record their delicious food at any time, and at the same time, combine it with their circle of friends to help them calculate their scores. Organize the daily group highlights and send out group announcements regularly at 12 noon every day based on what is happening in the group. I will be busier before and after the class starts, preparing the manuscript for the opening remarks, sorting out the essence of the course, collecting everyone's photo assignments, and keeping grading records, etc.
Especially when the end of the camp is approaching, in addition to the above things, you also need to prepare the end of the camp draft, make family photos, certificates for the top 3 scholarships, posters with gift packages for 15 people, and graduation certificates for 9 people. Confirm the topic and time with the guests.
I thought that these contents could be completed in one day. The fact is that during the day, I was extremely busy with my own work and could not complete these contents at all.
So a good operation should have the ability to rehearse, prepare in advance, and improve the efficiency of operating the community as much as possible. Only by planning the content in advance and anticipating the time required for each thing, can things be done later. Better to execute.
Especially the occurrence of some emergencies should be within the scope of the rehearsal. For example, if a guest is invited to share, the agreed time is 20 minutes, but the guest may speak for 40 minutes, so what should I do? You should rehearse everything beforehand and have a Plan B ready at all times.
So I re-evaluated my "disposable time" and focused on three frogs every day. Three Frogs is a term for time management. "Frogs" are the most important things every day, but you always want to delay or even avoid them. When you write about the three frogs every day, try to write about: your inner cultivation, life planning, study, career, caring for connections... these related things, and it is a specific and measurable thing, so the effect will be better. .
For frogs, there are three very important points to note:
1. How is the so-called "measurable" considered completed? Reading? How long to watch? How many pages to read? Be exactly the same, so that when you finish, you can only do more, not less. After talking for 30 minutes, it’s not finished if you only watch 29 minutes.
2. Eat the frog as early as possible and put away all other irrelevant chores, otherwise your anxiety will gradually increase! Do these three things first and your whole day will be relaxed. So this involves, try to plan things that are controllable.
3. Important principles. The so-called frogs are very important but not urgent things in our lives. In other words, they are things that accumulate. Such as reading, such as writing... these can accumulate the thickness of our lives. Things like "going shopping to buy some clothes" don't count.
Teacher Xiaoyi said: All abilities need to be cultivated, and habits need to be developed. I am also slowly developing abilities and developing new good habits.
4. What does the community I like look like?
The community I understand is a group of people with the same frequency getting together for the same interests and hobbies. The value of joining a high-quality community is that you can see the opinions of people like you. The process of growing up in this environment has enlightened my horizons. This issue of our community coincides with 2 festivals. One is the Beginning of Autumn and the other is Qixi Festival.
In today’s life, everyone is very busy and plays different roles. Many people may not know that the beginning of autumn has arrived.
On the day of the Beginning of Autumn, I made posters to remind everyone to feel the beauty of nature’s solar terms in busy days.
On the day of Chinese Valentine's Day, a Chinese Valentine's Day confession event was also launched. In life, most people are very reserved and don't know how to express themselves. Taking advantage of the special festival of Chinese Valentine's Day, the theme is: Confession. Based on my observation of the students, I conducted one-on-one confessions. The number of confessions was more than 30, and the number of confessions was more than 20 words. I explored the shining points of the students, communicated with heart, and created a full sense of ceremony for everyone.
What does the community I like look like? It must be a place where people can grow and be full of warmth. It doesn’t need too many people. It’s small, beautiful, and down-to-earth. So you need to always ask yourself:
What will I do when I am a community operations officer?
What abilities are needed to become a community operations officer?
Why do you need to have what abilities to become an operations officer?
What values ??are most important as an operations officer?
As an operations officer like that, who am I? What kind of person is he?
I became an operations officer, who am I serving?
What is my mission? What is the ideal I pursue?
When we go from the logical level below to the top, if each level can be improved one by one, it will be a complete thinking logical structure. We can also often ask ourselves in our work.
Teacher Xiaoyi often said to me: When we do something, we don’t just do it, but we do it well. It still takes time, either don’t do it, or do your best.
5. Don’t let the small detail of red envelopes betray you in social situations
Giving out red envelopes in the community is a very happy thing, and everyone will grab them when they see them. There are a lot of red envelopes given out in this community. Before each class, teacher Xiaoyi will give out red envelopes at the beginning and end of the camp.
Every time I see a red envelope, I will subconsciously grab it. When I reviewed it afterwards, Teacher Xiaoyi said to me: Teacher Xiaoyi will not grab more than 95% of the red envelopes unless they are specifically designated for exclusive use. red envelope. Generally, Teacher Xiaoyi is the one who distributes red envelopes, especially in her own paid community. She positions herself well and does not need to compete with everyone for red envelopes. It is more blessed to give than to receive.
So I was thinking about why we give out red envelopes in the community? What is the meaning of giving red envelopes?
Teacher Xiaoyi’s red envelope is not only a way to activate the atmosphere and test the number of people online, but also as a feedback for everyone’s tuition fees. I would like to express my gratitude to everyone, because paying students are worthy of our cherishment.
If we usually give out red envelopes by ourselves, we will definitely find it annoying when encountering the following behaviors:
1. Never speak or give out red envelopes, just squat and grab them silently.
2. Purposeful red envelopes that require you to forward, like, etc.
3. Only one person in the group will receive a red envelope, and the red envelope will be worth one point.
4. The exclusive red envelope sent to someone was snatched away by others and has not been returned.
So you should avoid these behaviors when giving out red envelopes. When you see a red envelope, calm down for 5 seconds before deciding whether to grab it. Regardless of the amount of the red envelope, you should express gratitude to others. Details determine success or failure. Although this is a small detail, everyone sees it. Don't let a small detail betray you in social situations.
There are also some problems in the operation of this community. Now during the review, we also found some things that were not done well.
For example, the control of time nodes is not too accurate, and there are occasional deviations in statistical data analysis. I have made a list of these and try to avoid them in the next operation.
I happened to see this paragraph yesterday. The four stages of review are: understanding the essence of the problem, not making the same mistake again, transforming experience into ability, and solidifying content for secondary analysis. The core is thinking, summarizing and refining keywords, not a simple verbatim draft.
Many things cannot be equally affected by rain and dew, but the heart has gone very far, growing while being torn apart. Looking back at the road ahead, I felt like I was being pulled along by Teacher Xiaoyi, and I could clearly feel that I was running faster. I am really lucky to be able to level up and fight monsters with Teacher Xiaoyi.
At the same time, I have also seen that the friends in our community have gradually become novices in cooking and have never failed. I believe that the next issue of Xiaoyi’s kitchen training camp will do better. Already Completed version 1.0 and looking forward to updating version 2.0.
Thank you, Teacher Xiaoyi, for teaching me a lot of practical things. I am also very grateful to my friends in this period for their understanding and tolerance. I have learned so much. Finally, I especially want to end with a poem by sister Mary in the group:
Learning to cook in spring, summer, autumn and winter?
Xiaoyi Kitchen is the first choice. ?
A double harvest of food and friendship, ?
We will meet again in the sixth issue.
