We all like to think we are special. Better than others. Doing better work. Excelling beyond our peers.Yet, by definition, most people are average. 我们都希望自己是特别的,比别人优秀,做更好的工作,超越我们的同龄人。然而根据定义我们能看出,大多数人都是普通的。 Are you choosing to be average? 你会选择成为普通的人吗? Average is What Everyone Else Does 普通人就是跟其他人做一样事情的那种人 I was chatting with a business colleague recently. He was frustrated that he had not advanced faster in his career. There was a sense of entitlement and much complaining. (I wanted to tell him that no one was going to give him his dreams.) Instead, I asked him a simple question about his job, “What are you doing that is above average?” 我最近和一位业务伙伴聊天,他很沮丧因为他的事业并没有很快提升。他认为自己应该得到但事实上没有,所以有诸多抱怨。(我想要告诉他没有人可以帮他实现他的目标)然后,我只是问他了关于他工作方面的一个很简单的问题,“你现在做的什么事情是普通人做不到的呢?” In other words, what do you do that is better than everyone else? 换句话说,你做的事情是不是比别人做得更好呢? |
