A Harvard University survey showed:
Achievement at work, 15% depends on the person’s intelligence and life experience, and the remaining 85% depends on the attitude.
Many people do not believe this result. After all, in our cognition, ability is a very important factor in work.
If you have this question, you might as well take a look at the following story with me.
From a female cleaner.
A girl from Northeast China moved to Japan with her family when she was 17years old.
Because she had no education, she became a cleaner with a lower threshold.
She is a language barrier, so she is squeezed out at work.
Dirty and exhausting work that others don’t want to do, throw it to her;
She was always the first to be suspected of things lost in the office.
In such a situation, she did not give up on herself, but settled down and devoted all her energy to work.
Cleaning is a very meticulous task. In order to check whether she has been cleaned, she often lay on the ground in disregard of her image and observe whether there is dust on the floor with bright light.
When cleaning the toilet, she used a small mirror to check for dirt on the inside.
This job is also very demanding on physical strength.
In order to exercise, she goes to climb he stairs every day.
When she arrives at the office, she will take out a pair of 5 kg dumbbells to exercise her wrists and abdominal muscles, once in the morning and once in the evening.
Cleaning is boring, but she treats it as a subject.
She can quickly analyze the causes of stains on the use of more than 80 cleaners on the market, and know which cleaner to use by looking at the stains.
With the ultimate pursuit of work, she was named "Japanese National Treasure Craftsman" in 2016.
Her name is Haruko Shintsu. She is engaged in cleaning work, but she has become a well-known star in Japan.
Let's go back to the research results of Harvard University.
The elements of a person's success cannot be generalized, but the "attitude" is indispensable.
People with a bad attitude will continue to internalize themselves;
People with good attitude will keep improving themselves.
Over time, the life gap between these two types of people will naturally gradually widen.
When a person knows how to adjust himself in time, his work status will be better and better, and the road of life will be smoother and smoother.
