No give up, only give in.

By doing business, I tell myself never to give up, but I know sometimes I need to give in.

For the opportunity, for the revenue and for the target we shall never give up; but for gaining the opportunity, the revenue and reaching the target, we need to give in and make a comprise in some situation.

Also sometimes we need to comprises with ourselves, give in with ourselves. Your left half needs to work out with your right half; your emotional half needs to work out with your rational half. I think this is more difficult.

A beginning or an ending?

Each beginning is also an ending. While you begin something, in that way you also end something.
All can be triggered by one decision-- can be a very small decision but your life changes from there.

Everyone is naturally fear of change, because it makes us feel uncertain and unsecured. But life with no change, as the sea without wave, as the sky without wind.

Fearing of change and then be frightening to take challenge is limiting the joy of life and limiting the scale of success.

Every big change in the era always turns out as a big opportunity. So no matter in life or in business, we shall be open to the change. It is not easy! But without ending something, we can not make a new start.

Emotion


I was used to think that every sucessful person must have a strong personality and wear the hard mask- as hard as steel. No one shall be allowed to see the soft part behind it. Why?-- because the softness is not part of success, it is part of weakness and part of human being.

But we can not change the fact- we are human, so we do have the same feeling same emotion that others have. As a manager, we shall try to understand the feeling of our staffs/colleagues, so in return, they will be closer to their managers and share the same feeling with their managers. 

For a manager to show the feeling and emotion in working place is not disgrace, but shall be controlable.

Role model

Every one has his own role model-- can be the most closer one - from family; also can be the one very far to you- the one you got to know through history book.

Why we need role model? The one reason is it is lighting your way; you gain extra strength or faith by looking at your role model; and think and believe you will be closer or similar to him/her- your role model is the one you want to become or whose asset you want to be transferred to.

Is it possible that your manager or your boss also can be your role model?

My answer is YES. To be a good manager, he/she shall has the expectation that the staff shall be pride of their manager and might take him/her as their role model, and so more respect to their manager.The great respect is contributing in the couple relationship, and it also exists in good working relationship.

Are you ready to be a role model? Think of it and act on it.
