Working half-heartedly is the ‘end’ of a career!
There are usually two types of people in the workplace.
A kind of superficiality, lazy volunteering, no flute, work life without ripples.
The other type is burning enthusiasm, wholeheartedly for the work, having certain standards.
The first type thinks that he is happy like this, but does not know that he is suffering great damage.
A billionaire once said:
“Work for others, success will give you a lot of experience, if you don’t do it, it doesn’t matter, if you work superficially, you are wasting your time and your life.”

Not long ago, her friend Ha was laid off by her company.
She sadly said: “It’s all because I’m confused for a moment, fortunately it’s time to start over.”
When she first joined the company, Ha was extremely enthusiastic, overtime was common.
Unexpectedly, at the end of the year, when the bonus was distributed, Ha accidentally discovered that everyone’s bonus wasn’t much different.
A colleague who worked at the company for many years advised her: “Don’t try too hard, the company earns a lot or a little, it has nothing to do with you.”
It was also from that moment that Ha began to have a slight change in her thinking.
She no longer has the enthusiasm to rush first when she has a job like in the past, anyway, if she does a lot, she will probably make a lot of mistakes, it’s better not to do it.
Especially after being the team leader of a group of trainees, she can finally command others to do things.
She gradually learned how to push the work to others, sometimes even assigning the work she was supposed to do to her subordinates.
Once, the boss asked Ha to make a plan, she immediately gave it to her subordinates, waited for the subordinate to submit, she would edit it a bit and then send it to the boss.
Ha is happy because he is leisurely, and his subordinates do not dare to cough.
But leisurely gets used to it, and the ability is gradually worn out.
Many times customers make suggestions, but Ha’s ideas do not meet, the company many times receive customer complaints about her.
Colleagues in other departments also have opinions with Ha, the feedback that she works is not positive.
Being superficial at work for a long time, carrying a fear of suffering, as a result, Ha was replaced by her own subordinates.
“Superficial” thinking once rekindled, it will be very difficult to get rid of it.
Over time, people will become “useless”.
In a foreign book called “Feeling Safe”, there is a passage that goes like this:
“A bird standing on a tree is never afraid of the branch breaking, for it is not the branch that it believes in, but its wings.”
Being superficial at work is like losing your own wings, only to lose your future.
You can be superficial for a while, not for the rest of your life.
When you discover that you can no longer be superficial, then it’s too late to regret it.
Don’t work hard today, tomorrow you have to work hard to find work.

A lot of people have the obvious thought that it’s easy to just let it go.
Actually not so, Not so, mental emptiness can destroy a person more than busyness at work.
Superficial people often don’t find a sense of accomplishment in their work, so they are prone to burnout, anxiety, and even irritability.
For them, work is like a burden, more like a torture.
Superficial people often have very low requirements, rarely create achievements, promotions and raises are never their turn.
Over time, they either have to leave the company or collapse in the negative.
A blogger once shared her superficial life time.
At that time, she had not been working for a long time, had to prepare for the wedding, busy decorating the new house, taking care of the wedding, basically did not put much thought into the work.
Every time she needed to submit a manuscript, she would go online to find information and then patch it up.
When you need to contact customers, just call through the speaker.
Many colleagues do not bother to contact her, they think she is lazy.
During that time, she clearly felt the scrutiny of everyone around her.
The boss saw that she was not enthusiastic, so he did not want to promote.
Even more heartbreaking is that even her fiancé thinks that she is not forward.
Realizing this, she thought that if it continued like this, it would be very bad, she would become more and more passive.
Competition in the workplace is very fierce, if you want to develop well, you must always prepare mentally, you must know how to build a barn before losing cows.
Just like the line in the movie “Alice in Wonderland”:
“You have to keep running, so you don’t stay where you are. If you want to move forward, you have to run faster.”
Work occupies a large part of our lives, and if you are superficial at work, your career spirit and values will gradually disappear.
When you are having fun at work and achieving good results, that joy is incomparable.

The superficial people around us, most of them like to complain.
They talk about ambiguity and fatigue, complain about the unfairness of the company and the incompetence of leaders, but they never know how to look at themselves.
The work could obviously be done today, but had to be postponed until tomorrow;
The company clearly has many training opportunities, but again and again excuses not wanting to learn;
Obviously doesn’t want to live a normal life, but doesn’t want to do the assigned tasks.
For them, yesterday, today and tomorrow are no different.
In contrast, the best people in the workplace are never superficial.
In “Dear Founder,” Silicon Valley investor Maynard shares his story.
At first, he was just a humble security guard, his daily job was to patrol the corridors and give directions.
Not wanting to be limited by the status quo, he taught himself to program.
After helping the company decrypt the system a few times, he smoothly transitioned from a security guard to computer security.
Later, during his tenure as the company’s chief executive officer, the company’s annual revenue increased dozens of times.
Maynard got where he is today by always running around, always looking for new opportunities while other colleagues often ignore them.
He is nicknamed “Mr. Get”, who specializes in helping the company solve difficult problems.
There is an old saying, “leisurely living is unwholesome”, if you live superficially, prefer a leisurely life at an age where you should be striving, sooner or later you will have to suffer the consequences.
The biggest regret in life is not failure, but “I could have done it.”
The workplace is a place of value exchange, self-discipline is the highlight, and lazy people are “out” sooner or later.
May we all be pioneers, don’t wait until we are old to regret the days we were superficial with our youth.
Jeannette Winterson once wrote:
“Walk against the current with salmon-like determination, no matter how strong the current, because this is your river.”
In the river of life, you cannot avoid the storm, don’t complain, don’t run away, don’t live superficially.
Everything we do is beautifying our CV and paving the way for our future.
So don’t choose to live superficially at the age you should strive for the most.
