How to be a good employee

How to be a good employee? We can start with a real story.

ExxonMobil is the world's leading oil and petrochemical company, founded by John Rockefeller in 1882, with 8600 employees, including about 14000 engineering and technical personnel and scientists. It is the world's largest non-governmental oil and gas producer and seller. The development of Mobil Oil Company is a true reflection of the prosperity history of the United States. Such a world-class company, the second term is a very ordinary staff.

Achibert, the successor of Rockefeller, was a previously unknown employee in the company, with a low status. At that time, the price of oil was $4 (not nearly $100 a barrel now), and the company's slogan was mobil oil at $4 a barrel. As one of the many salesmen, akibert, whether out, shopping, eating, paying bills, or even writing to friends, has the chance to sign, he doesn't forget to write "Mobil $4 a barrel.". Sometimes, achibert even does not write his name, but only this sentence in place of his signature. For a long time, colleagues joked that he was "four dollars a barrel.". Despite all sorts of ridicules, archibert never moved. One day four years later, Rockefeller overheard the incident and invited the ordinary employee to have a meal. "Is this not the company's slogan?" asked akibert why he did it? Every time you write more, you may know more. " Then the two had a long talk. Five years later, Rockefeller retired, and decided that aquibert would succeed Mobil's second chairman. After that, achibert led the company to create a new glory.

The story says it is not legendary, because it contains too many reasons for people and things.

First of all, we say that everyone is capable. In 360 lines, we will be the top priority; We also found that human ability is not directly proportional to education, but is proportional to people's intention. Many successful people, who do not have a high degree, may not like to be forced to study, but their wisdom will gradually show up when they really use their mind in real social activities and business activities.

How can we improve our wisdom and ability? That is to have a calm mind and focus on what you are trying to do. In an industry or field, even if you are a layman, you will become an expert in this industry or field in a few years as long as you do it with your heart. How can we keep a quiet mind and concentrate on doing things? That is to have excellent dedication and give up the interference of small interests.

To be dedicated is to act strictly according to the rules and to do our duty. If you think about your own small interests every day, and think about the benefits you can lazy for, you will lose respect for your responsibilities, and you will have speculative psychology. You can't keep going to find ways to do things well and perfect; If you always think about your own gains and losses, and calculate the ratio of pay to return, you will generate emotional fluctuations, and your attention will be shifted to other aspects, and you can't keep your mind focused on work; If you are lazy, you just mix up every day, avoid problems and difficulties, be careless, understand it half way, and you can't concentrate on doing things for a long time.

Give up personal small profits, get a good mentality, then can get greater success! The owner of the story, achibert, took nine years to sit in the seat of the president of the world's first oil company from a small salesman. His behavior began to be said to be stupid, but it was this kind of stupidity that made him persevere, thinking about the sales of the company every day, thinking about the company's interests, and for a long time, the operation of the company, Market judgment has formed a unique analytical capability, which enables him to lead the operation performance of Mobil company to grow strongly again after the retirement of Rockefeller.

Whether it is an enterprise or other organization, it is run in a regular way. The system of each enterprise and institution is very different, but one thing is common, that is, we always welcome and create employees who work wholeheartedly, and welcome and cultivate employees who have the spirit of initiative and advancement, work with great effort and work creatively.
