與青年人聊天 (之三)
.
讓我們繼續一起來聊聊，青年人常見的問題：如何提振工作的動力?
.
問題：「師父好，面對公司與工作沒有歸屬感、沒有上進的動力。但是迫於生計還得繼續做，我應該怎樣調整自己的心態呢？」
.
答：「對於我來說，所有經歷的事情，無論當時覺得好還是不好、喜悅還是痛苦，乃至無聊！我發現它們，都是人生中最重要的營養，所以你應該去做好它。」
.
譬如說，我的目的是登上泰山，但是在登山的途中，路過一個很髒的橋。那麼就不應該用憤怒和排斥的心面對，要用「感激」的心來看待它。因為它幫助我從此岸渡到彼岸，讓我登上泰山，是它送了我一程。
.
我們在漫長的工作之中，不要有煎熬的心理，應該有學習的心理，應該去接受、感恩。工作就好比是這座破爛的橋，我們用恭敬、感恩的心面對這座橋，你會發現它的美好與優點。
.
在工作之中，會感覺受到煎熬，是自己的「心」讓每一刻都煎熬，是自己製造的。如果用喜悅和感恩的心面對， 所有的挫折都會讓你成長，成為生命的佐料：苦、辣、酸、甜。對你的未來而言，就像一幅美麗的人生圖案，它是其中的一個色彩。
.
在一幅美麗的圖畫中，墨色濃淡都有其合適的位置，少了哪一筆，這幅畫都不是完美的。
.
所以，在接受每個歷程的時候，都應該用真實的、感恩的心恭敬這個世界。
.
別小看你的老闆，也別小看你的主管，他們可能某方面的能力比你高多了。雖然你在這裡一邊拿著人家的錢，幹著這個活，還一邊痛苦著。但是想想如果真沒人雇你幹活了，你才真的痛苦。
.
⭐請記住這句話：
「做好你的工作，真誠之中生黃金！」⭐

Chat with the youths (Part 3)
Let us continue our chat session. Another question that I get frequently from youths is: How do I boost my motivation at work?
Question: “I don’t have a sense of belonging at my workplace. Neither do I have the motivation to improve myself. To make ends meet, I have no choice but to continue in this job. How do I change my mentality to one that is more positive?”
My reply: “I choose to regard everything that happens to me as important nutrients that help to nourish my life. Regardless of whether they bring happiness or sorrow, whether they are good or bad, I will resolve to do my best, even if it is a task that seems totally meaningless at that point in time.”
Take the example of climbing Mount Taishan. On the way to the peak, you come across a dirty bridge. Instead of regarding the bridge with disdain and anger, you should be grateful to it. Its existence allows you to cross from one end to the other and ultimately helps you to reach the peak of the mountain.
Similarly, when we are putting in long hours at work, we should not take it as an ordeal and feel tormented by it. Instead we ought to accept it, view it as a learning opportunity and be grateful for it. Our job is like the dirty bridge in the mountain – we ought to treat it with respect and gratitude. Only then will we see its beauty and merits.
Whenever you feel tormented at work, understand that it is your “heart” and your mentality that is causing the torment. You are the cause of your own ordeal. If you choose to face it with a thankful and joyous heart, all the obstacles that you encounter become catalysts for your growth. You will realize that these obstacles are the seasoning that add flavors to your life: flavors of bitterness, spiciness, sourness and sweetness.
Every obstacle that you overcome is like a color on the palette that eventually makes up the masterpiece of your future. In a beautiful painting, every color has its own place on the canvas. The lack of any color will render the painting imperfect.
Hence, no matter what experience we are going through, we should treat the world with a sincere, thankful and respectful heart.
Don’t look down on your boss or your supervisor. They may be a lot stronger than you in certain areas. Rather than feel tormented while performing the job that you are being paid to do, think of how much worse you will feel if you do not have a job.
Keep this phrase in mind: “Those who do their jobs well and with sincerity will be rewarded eventually.”
