Most of the time, we are used to excusing our mistakes with the excuse of "knowing more than we can do" and "taking it for granted".
However, without thinking about the so-called "know" may be that you understand the matter superficial and superficial, but only to understand the superficial is not the way to build the deepest insight and understanding of things, how can there be a goal to follow through?
In the era of information explosion, we are surrounded by all kinds of information all the time. Just staying at the level of "knowing" may lead us to a deeper confusion. In fact, to achieve this ability, you first need to break the bottleneck of the stereotype.
This is probably the most profound meaning of penetrating essence.
To make a breakthrough, we need to adjust our mentality, change our behavior and persevere on the basis of understanding the definition and principle.
Encyclopedia has a definition, the so-called thinking set, is in accordance with the accumulated thinking experience and lessons and existing thinking rules, in the repeated use of the formation of a relatively stable, stereotyped thinking line, way, procedure, mode. Under the condition that the environment is unchanged, the set enables one to apply the method mastered to solve the problem quickly. When the situation changes, it prevents people from adopting new methods. The negative thinking pattern is the shackle of creative thinking.
There are three common barriers to stereotypes: experience, stereotypes, and self-imposed limits
Experience can help us achieve our goals faster and better in the same situation. But experience is not everything, to make a decision by thinking, the achievement, experience never has its limitations, in such a situation, the change of the details, is likely to be the new variables, if the value of empirical alert, it is easy to ignore the nuances of new variables, this experience has become hinder we found the problem, widen our sight and put us in the wrong way the biggest accomplice. As a consulting firm, and many times the some customers of our service will do the same for several years consulting projects, although the same project, the basic methodology and goals for the seemingly with previous, but in fact, every year may produce a large number of new variables, such as customer personnel changes, substitution, the leadership of project project to do, but he has a different appeal; If we blindly hold on to the experience, do not identify new variables, do not pay attention to the changes of all people and things related to the target and the risks that may be caused by the changes, we are most likely to lead ourselves astray. Therefore, in order to break through the myth of empiricism, we need to stop and think, and first give ourselves a soul test: How does this task differ from previous experience? What lessons can you draw on? Are there new changes in the people and things related to the goal? Don't be too quick to judge, make decisions, or even act rashly. Secondly, on the basis of soul torture, after deep thinking and combing, make decisions and make plans; It is impossible to be human without making mistakes, but these actions can at least help us greatly reduce the probability of major mistakes. When we stereotype an event or a person, we are often "selectively deaf or blind," seeing only what we want to see or hear. In many cases, this inherent insight can blind us to a great deal of critical value. Cognitive psychology research has also shown that when people have stereotypes about an event or person, they gather information not to find the truth, but simply to find agreement with their own beliefs. Friends last month because the bidding project lost in the morning session publicly criticized by the boss regarding the heavily, "callous, squeeze" became friends framed boss portrait in my heart, therefore, for a long period of time, his task for the boss to arrange and give the encouragement, acceptance of anchor under the boss a person, all these stereotypes cause the impetuous, whether to arrange things to the boss, or the boss 'personality, there were a larger deviation. It can be seen that the mind is filled with stereotypes, and what we hear and see are all mental assumptions. More real, objective and useful information is blocked out. How can we see the space for our own progress? In the workplace, everyone has their own responsibilities and missions. How to balance the concern for things and people while performing their respective duties, balance the balance of rationality and sensibility, not fall into the pit of triviality and emotional stereotypes, careful thinking and action is an indispensable knowledge on the road to workplace practice. Jump out of the "trap" and surpass the impossible "Hopeless", "worthless, meaningless", "too difficult for me to do"... Most of the time, our ability to be the boundary of the preset to the frame, and at the same time, in turn, promote ZiXinDu further reduce, then people will be in the "low ZiXinDu, low sense of achievement, low ability boundary" in the vicious circle, years don't know, no breakthrough, a preset in your heart out of the "success", just like that. Chinese New Year for many years, still remember the first lesson of entering the workplace, the boss gave a difficult task for the fledgling me, complete the goal, to keep principle and flexibility, need insight into the heart also need to possess a strong driving force, no matter for small nodes defined goals and stick to, or the global insight and judgment, in finish the task, I have been too weak; However, the goal can be achieved in the end. In the whole process, apart from the boss's good guidance on methods and ideas, she is always shaping an idea for me: "There is nothing that can not be solved, this point can not be broken, must be your method is wrong, and the ability has nothing to do with". Today, over the years, this motto has made a visible difference in my entire life, though it has inevitably led to mistakes and mistakes in many areas where I have been less involved. It's always pushing me: If the eyes are the goal, the behavior will lead to how to act, how to breakthrough; If all is difficulty, the information collected is merely to verify the truth of the difficulty. With such a belief, broke through the large and small barriers countless, will not be possible into possible, this is not to set limits on their own strength, no matter how big the difficulties and resistance, but to calm down to action. Years of quiet good, life can be expected, we are willing to be able to blossom in the thorns, cultivate the mind, upgrade thinking, have insight into the essence, the ability to overcome difficulties. The pessimist complains about the wind, The optimist expects it to change, The realist adjusts the sails.
