Thoughts on Craftsman Spirit (4)
Craftsman spirit is a quality of concentration, persistence, preciseness, meticulousness, honesty and persistence.
Craftsman spirit is a direction, an accumulation, a personality, a practice, a value, a business, a fortune and an empire.
The book "Craftsman Spirit" tells us:
1. How to establish a correct concept of work;
2. The mentality and the number of mentality in the work;
3. Working methods, life goals and life values;
4. Handling and maintenance of various interpersonal relationships at work;
5. Work-life balance;
How to establish a correct concept of work? First of all, we must establish a correct view of money. Work is not only a way for us to earn money and make a living, but also a stage for us to pursue our goals, dreams and realize the value of life. We are actors in our work and life. If an actor is only for money, he is definitely not a good actor. We should be masters of money, not servants of it. Where the salary is high, we will try our best to transfer jobs, and where the salary is good, regardless of commitment and feelings. We need to have the spirit of doing what we do, love what we do and be good at what we do. Let go of utilitarianism, impetuousness and speculation. Pick up public morality, study hard and persevere. Make up for the lack of faith, honesty and gratitude. Improve your personality and cultivate your mind at work. Work hard every day, be serious and rigorous, reflect on yourself every day, practice hard, temper your soul, cultivate your mind, correct your inner mistakes and change your behavior deviation. Be a happy craftsman.
Mentality and number of mentalities at work. Or a topic related to money. Salary is a reward after obtaining certain achievements, positive performance or certain results. Therefore, we need to work hard first, make positive progress, get some recognition and appreciation, and naturally we don't have to worry about salary. This is the mentality of working first and then making money. If you work with the mentality of putting money first, then working, how much money to give and how much work to do, then you will always be a dirty migrant worker, not a worker. To be an excellent craftsman, you must first become a qualified worker. More dedicated heart, less utilitarian heart; Be more diligent and less impetuous; Be more grateful and less selfish.
? Have a clear goal and take dreams as your belief. ? This sentence is quite right. We need to have a dream, which is a goal in real life. After defining this goal, we need to find ways to achieve it and realize our dreams. Dreams and goals are very different and different. Not much to say here. Everyone needs to think about whether they have a dream or not. What is this? Are you strong and confident when you walk in your dreams? Here are some good methods that everyone enjoys in the process of achieving goals and dreams, that is, in real work: First, result-oriented, everything is result-oriented, without results, everything is empty talk. Second, advance, so that there are no important emergencies in the work. In this way, maybe your work can be more qualitative and quantitative, because you have enough time to finish it. Third, do things right for the first time, be perfect, and avoid rework. Only in this way can we become qualified workers and then become craftsmen.
Handling and maintenance of various interpersonal relationships at work. Go to work with love, deal with interpersonal relationships with love, and deal with work affairs with love. Let love work, let love work. This is the direction we should move closer together. Reduce your prejudice, self-interest and injustice. Enhance your altruistic spirit, help him and become his heart. Let the power of love be deeply rooted in people's hearts.
Work life balance. Frankly speaking, there is no balance point. What we need is to work hard and enjoy life. Don't let work affect your life (your wife is unhappy), and don't let work affect you (your boss is unhappy). Leaders don't want to see employees whose work efficiency is affected by work-life imbalance. Parents also don't want to see their children's feelings affected by the imbalance between work and life. You are the one to solve this problem, and only you can balance work and life. Don't make any excuses. Only you can decide your own values and priorities, only you can choose from them, only you can understand the consequences of your choices, only you can arrange your schedule and life reasonably, arrange your work and family well, and then carry out your choices. Enjoy your own life.
A person loves his chosen career deeply and does it to the extreme. With what? Work is a kind of practice? Work philosophy, enjoy the growth, achievements and achievements gained through hard work every day. We also work with a spiritual mind, and our spiritual wealth, spiritual wealth and material wealth have also increased. Isn't that what we want?
Thoughts on Craftsman Spirit (5)
? A gentleman is not a weapon? From the Analects of Confucius, Kong Old Master Q has always been very cold to gentlemen, and it is estimated that he can't reach it, so he should keep learning and preaching.
People who have no ability can't make tools at a low level, but at a high level, they are just trying to do it? Useless? . As for not sticking to your own model, you should be brave enough to try to break through. There is nothing behind you but knowledge and vision. China people, for this matter, have been entangled in energy, love and hate.
In the past, we had some contempt for craftsmanship, because the only bad habit that a master needs to get rid of is craftsmanship. However, things are always used by craftsmen, and everyone will never have a masterpiece. Life is always supported by all kinds of craftsmen, whether you like craftsmen or not.
Now the craftsman spirit is popular again, which means it is a bit anti-ancestor. Fortunately, the gentleman still has the meaning of accommodating, and we also need to be more tolerant and understanding of the craftsman spirit. Masters and giants are very popular in China. They need to be huge or deserve a thumbs up. And craftsmen? Really, in modern society, the more desires and virtual networks there are, the truest spirit will become popular with great fanfare. I don't know if it's because we really need it or because we lack it.
I have a friend who makes purple sand by hand. I usually buy a pot from him about half a year. There are many kinds of pots. Occasionally, I found that most of them are light utensils, that is, traditional types of utensils which are mainly practical, without flowers or decorations. You can't use every pot. Occasionally changing pots is also caused by mood and season. The rest of the time is more or less responsible for decoration, unpretentious and imperfect. So, I asked him why, which was a little reproachful.
My friend said quietly that the simplest is the most difficult. The pot is used, so its beauty lies in its convenience and comfort. If it loses its function, it is actually dead. When you use it, the less sense of existence, the less uncomfortable feeling, which is a good thing. Any pot is full of curves and closed to each other. It should take into account how the tea leaves roll and stretch, how the water flows, and then the pot exists. The shape of the pot lets you know what it can hold, not what it looks like.
The defect of light goods is the most conspicuous, because it is light goods, and the light and shadow brought by the curve on its surface must be certain, full of beauty and transition. Any defects in lines and shapes are obvious at a glance. All thumbs are stupid, too clever and too frivolous. There is nothing to hide and transfer in the mellow and restrained light. They are all clearly there.
And the pot should be burned and the mud should be chosen. The mud of bare goods is obvious. Whether it is pure or not, the bigger the display, the more it can be revealed. Handmade? In addition to skill and proficiency, it is also related to mood and environment. All craftsmen are stupid, and they must be stupid. To make a pot is to make a pot. Just follow the flow, but on the one hand, imagine what the whole pot looks like, but what you do at every moment is only related to one point in this link, and it is a good thing to string it together. If you miss one point, you will lose all.
Pots are different from other things, works of art may need passion, and making pots needs quiet power. When making a pot, no matter how you feel before and what you want to do after you finish, you must be quiet when making a pot, and the pot made quietly can be seen at a glance. Don't you often meditate? That feeling is the same as making a pot.
This kind of preaching is similar to selling goods. To say that something is valuable is either full of stories or painstaking. The highest state of nature is that this thing is alive. But fortunately, it is not easy to know the craftsman spirit, and the simplest is the most difficult? Is this a craftsman? S spirit? So life also needs craftsman spirit?
In fact, this world is a world of pragmatism, and exquisite egoism prevails. Even selling ideas and works of art is no different from selling things. Craftsman spirit, no matter how much you like it, how much you despise it, is always with you all the time.
The story of life is always only the beginning and success, and the middle process and failures are always covered up by themselves consciously, unless those failures are worth showing off. Life is a traveler with a dream, but his head is buried in the dream. The inevitability of looking back is a hesitant choice when moving forward. You always think that technology and skills can be the foundation of life, but you never understand that the works you make prove your value.
The feast of life is not that you are invited and dressed up, but that you are preparing ingredients and cooking. The materials you prepared may have fooled you, but they may not have fooled the world. You may have practiced secretly for a long time, but you get nervous when you really face life. Your dream banquet, without excellent ingredients, is the power of silence. That is to say, between a pot and mud, it seems to be a skill forever, but it is actually done quietly, step by step as a ritual, quietly and intently as a baby.
Maybe you have chosen a brighter and better life, but only if you don't want to cover up your material poverty, lack of peace in the middle and lack of skills in life. When you decorate yourself to hide yourself and pretend to be useful to be useless, such as those fancy teapots, you may get praise, but it is actually a serious injury to your life.
The world is always honest. You deceive yourself, but you can't deceive the world. The world is boring, too. You think that your hard life is criticized and pointed at by buyers all over the world. Real life is always disturbed by dreams, and there is no intention to move forward. When dreams are opposed to reality, even a quiet life becomes a luxury.
No matter what others say about your life, you are destined to be the craftsman of your life. Forge your own materials, learn the skills you need, and turn skills into abilities. Many failures are because dreams are too big, or because dreams ignore the present. Many failures are nothing more than being too lazy to forge materials and follow rituals. More failures are to hide that I didn't treat my dreams quietly, but I was afraid that my life would be punctured by my own efforts. The more I try to show off my life, the more useless and flawed it becomes.
I also have a friend who is a jade sculptor. He attributed the beauty of jade to the awe of jade, and his works to finding the best balance between essence and defect removal. It seems that it has nothing to do with making pots, but in fact, like making pots, it is always related to life.
The simplest and most difficult thing is to be a craftsman of your own life with awe of life.
Zuo Anji: My skills are great! Cows are undoubtedly very complicated. How can I understand cows with one knife, and it's easy and simple? What is the reason? Because I have mastered its texture. Cattle and cattle are of course different, but no matter what kind of cattle, the texture is the same; Everyone's life also has its own characteristics, and the basic principles are similar. Because I am familiar with the texture of cattle, I naturally know where to cut it. So is life. If we can thoroughly understand and understand the truth of life and find out the laws, we can simplify complicated things and really relax like my master.
