你是否曾逃避过某种局面,并希望用不同的方式来处理呢?有时候,你是否觉得自己的权利被忽视?你能否回想起发脾气,以及没人理解你的意见的时候?如果,你对其中任何一个问题回答“是的”的话,你可能在坚定自信的表达方面受到了挑战。坚定自信的表达是能够以双方相互尊重的方式,清晰地说出你的看法和感受。它不会侵犯别人的权利,也不会因结果而愧疚。坚定自信的表达以天赋人权为前提,不是建立在地位或成就上。你有权利表达自己的观点,有权利承担自己的责任,并拒绝承担他人的责任。能否进行“有价值”的交流,关键在于你如何支配自己的这些权利。
当沟通的双方——说者和听者都受到尊重时,交流才有价值。主要的沟通方式有三种:消极被动的接受、坚定自信的交流、强迫他人接受。三者的差异性在于交流双方和信息质量不同。消极接受使你的表达和被认可的能力降低,强迫他人接受,是为了导致某种结果,而施加了其他的力量,不是建立在互相尊重的基础上。只有坚定自信的交流才使双方都受到尊重,才能进行有价值的交流。
一个人需要有一定程度的自信、自我肯定和自知之明,才能进行坚定自信的交流。自信,是要从内心凸现,而不是伪装出来的。它发自内心,不依赖于任何人。自我肯定,即相信自己的价值,相信自己是生活中美好事物的承载者。自知之明,源于自我控制,它能通过自身评定获知自己的优缺点。对于一个自信并自知的人,坚定自信的表达是一个很自然的过程。从本质上说,在你向他人证明自己之前,必须有自信。

坚持不懈,直到成功
佚名
在东方,挑选小公牛去竞技场格斗有一定的程序。每只小公牛都被带进场地,向手持长矛刺它们的斗牛士发起攻击。小公牛的勇敢程度以它所表现出的可以忍受矛刃刺痛的次数来衡量。我从中意识到——生活里,我每天都经历着类似的测试。如果我坚持下去、不断尝试、勇往向前,就能获得成功。
我并不是为了失败才来到这个世界的,我的血管里流淌的也不是失败的血液。我不是一只任人宰割的羔羊,而是一头决不与羊群为伍的猛狮。我不愿听到弱者的哭泣和抱怨,因为他们的脆弱会影响到我。让他们加入羔羊的行列吧!失败者的屠宰场不是我的宿命。
生活的犒赏不会出现在旅途的起点附近,而往往在旅程的终点。我不知道要走多远才能到达目的地。走到第一千步,我仍然可能遭遇失败,然而成功就在下一个拐弯处;如果我不转过去,我永远也不会知道它离我有多近。通常,我都会再前行一步;如果还没成功,我还会再向前一步,然后再往前一步。事实上,每一步也并非那么困难。
因此,我认为,每天的努力就好比往大橡树上砍一刀。最开始的一击也许对大树没有任何影响,第二刀也是这样,第三刀还是这样。每一刀似乎都没什么效果,都可以忽略。但这小小的一刀刀累积起来,大橡树终将倒掉。同样,我们也可以把今天所做的努力比作冲刷山岭的雨滴、蚕食老虎的蚂蚁、照亮地球的星星和建造金字塔的奴隶。我要一砖一瓦地垒筑起自己的城堡,因为我知道,小小的努力,只要坚持下去,也能成就伟业。
我决不会考虑失败,我要从我的字典里去掉这些愚蠢的词和短语:放弃、无法、不能够、不会发生、不可能、没有可能性、失败、难以实行、无望和退却等。我会尽量摆脱失望的控制,即使染上这种思想疾病,我也将在绝望中继续前进。我要挥洒汗水,不停劳作,忍受一切磨难痛苦。我会全身心向着目标前行,藐视所有阻障,因为我坚信,沙漠尽头必有绿洲。
我将牢记古老的平均律,并为我所用。我相信,每一次失败都增加了成功的胜算,每一次否定都是肯定的砝码,每一次失败都是成功的前奏,每一次不幸都预示着明天的好运。只有经历过黑夜,才能欣赏到白昼的明亮;只有历经了多次的失败,才能取得最终的成功。
我将努力,努力,再努力。我将视每一个障碍为成功路上的一个小小延误,是对我的职业的一种挑战。我将坚持下去,像水手一样不断提高自己的技能,乘风破浪,勇往直前。
我不会因昨日的成功而骄傲自大,因为这是失败的祸根。不论昨日的一切是好是坏,我都将忘记,满怀自信地迎接新一轮太阳的升起,我相信这将是最美好的一天。只要一息尚存,我就要坚持到底。因为我已经知道了成功的最大秘诀:只要坚持到底,我就一定会获得成功。
坚持下去,定会成功。
心灵小语

别人其实是你的一面镜子
佚名
第一次见到某人时,在第一瞬间,你的脑海里会形成一个印象。你对他人的反应,其实就像你如何看待自己的晴雨表,更多的是反映出你自己,而不是其他人。你不可能真正喜欢或讨厌他人的某个方面,除非它反射出你对自身某方面的喜好。通常,我们靠近与自己类似的人,而那些展示出我们自身某个不喜欢的方面的人,往往令我们讨厌。
所以,你以他人为镜,能更清楚地折射出你对自我价值的感受。反过来,对于你不认同的人,你也能以之为镜,显露出对自身不满意的方面。
要与他人和睦相处,你必须学会容忍。你要从根本上转变视角,不去评判别人,而去不断地反省自身,而这是一个巨大的挑战。你的任务是,以你对别人作出的所有的决定、评判为线索,来改进和完善自我。
最近,我与一位客户一起吃午饭,他吃饭的样子实在令我很反感。我的第一反应就是:他粗鲁无礼,吃饭的样子令人恶心。当我意识到自己正评判他时,便停下来,扪心自问是什么感受。被人看到与这么个张着嘴咀嚼、大声擤鼻涕的人在一起,我发现自己感到很难堪。我还发现自己很在乎餐馆里其他人对我的看法,这让我感到很惊讶。
记住,你对他人的评判并不意味着你就不会像他那样。比如,仅仅因为我评判那位客户粗鲁无礼,并不能保证我永远都不会有像他那样的行为。同样,如果我容忍他的行为,也并不会因此突然张嘴咀嚼。
假如你用这种方式走进生活,你就能同时以你最不满的人,和你最尊敬、最爱的人为镜,指引你发现自身的缺陷,同时欣赏自己的最佳品质。

谱写生命的乐章
佚名
设想,如果有人给了你一支单色的不可拆装的钢笔。你根本看不到里面究竟有多少墨水。也许你试着写几个字后它就没水了,也许里面的墨水足够完成一部(也可能是几部)意义深远的传世之作。但这一切在动笔前,都不得而知。
这样的游戏规则,其结果你的确很难预料。只能赌一把!
实际上,游戏规则并未规定你一定要做点儿什么,反之,你甚至完全可以把它放到书架上或抽屉里,不去动它,任由墨水自然干枯。
可是,倘若你打算用它,你会将其派上什么用场呢?你将如何开展这一游戏呢?+
你会在写一个字之前,不断犹豫,反复计划吗?你会因为计划过于周详而没时间动笔吗?
或许你只是手握钢笔,埋头苦写,笔耕不辍,顺着泉涌的文思被动前行呢?
你写字时会很小心,似乎这支笔的墨水下一刻就会枯竭一样吗?或是你会假装相信这支笔永无枯竭之时呢?
那么你会写些什么呢:情爱?憎恶?喜悦?痛苦?生命?死亡?虚无?抑或是一切?
你的写作目的是充实自己,还是愉悦他人呢?或是两者兼而有之?
你落笔胆怯审慎,还是铿锵有力?你的想象力是丰富还是匮乏?
也许你根本没有落笔,因为没有规则要求你拿到笔后必须要去写作。或许你会去素描?乱画一通?信笔涂鸦?
你会写在线内还是线上,或许你根本看不到线,即使有又在哪里呢?那些是吗?
就此有许多该考虑的问题,难道不是吗?
此刻,如果有人给你一支谱写生命乐章之笔……

我相信
佚名
对我来说,从哈佛毕业后的25年里,我懂得了坚信希望而不陷入绝望,努力奋斗而不听天由命,坚定信念而不愤世嫉俗。
我相信知识的力量会使世界更美好。愤世嫉俗者可能说:人类从未在历史中学到什么,知识的真正作用只是使人类优于其他物种。但是他们错了:我们能够从错误中吸取教训,并超越过去。在哈佛,我们学会了这个事实——真理能让我们自由。
我相信履行家庭义务是我们的职责,因为有意义的生活的真正核心是家。愤世嫉俗者可能说:所有的家庭都很狭隘且毫无价值。家庭观念已经过时,无法运转。但是他们错了:让我们学会爱的正是家庭。
我相信通过努力,可以实现社会公正和全民自由。愤世嫉俗者可能要嘲笑这种想法太幼稚,他们声称:努力追求机会均等、公平公正、自由自在,只会创构一个绝望的荒原。但是他们错了:自由是我们的命运,公正是我们的向导,我们将所向无敌。
我相信,保护地球环境,可以抵制前所未有的冲击。愤世嫉俗者可能嘲笑道:一片古树林,一阵清风,或者一条山涧,都毫无价值。但是他们错了:人类无法独立生存,我们是世界的一部分。
我相信你,相信这里的每个人,也相信这个群体。愤世嫉俗者说,你们的内心受贪欲驱使,最终,你们只会在乎自己,而毫不顾及他物。但是他们错了:我们彼此关心,珍爱自由,崇尚公正,追求真理。
最终,一个重要的抉择摆在我们面前:愤世嫉俗还是坚定信念。它们都能扎根在我们的心灵深处,像能自我实现的预言一样,它们会塑造我们的生活。我相信,我们一定会相互敞开心扉,在无限可能的基础上,创造一切可能。这是一个自信民族的任务,也是贯穿我们整个历史,至今仍深植在我们内心深处的品格。
我相信我们的未来!

展示个人魅力
佚名
展示个人魅力源于一种观念——按照自己的方式实现自己的目标。有影响力的人可以带动、鼓舞其他人毫不隐讳地表达自己。你可以通过培养以下特点来展示自己的魅力。
权威权威是一种内心的自信——是对你的技能和能力的信任。它发自内心,来自于“我能行”“我应该成功”的态度。当你维护自己的权利,真诚地要求你的所想、所需时,这种态度就得以流露,并成为一种意愿来传递给他人和自己。
果断果断的举止是主动的、直率的、诚实的。它传达出一种自尊与尊重他人的感觉。果断让我们看到了自己的所想、所需和与他人平等的权利。一个果断的人通过影响、倾听他人,并与之洽谈取胜,因此他人都愿意选择与他合作。
易接近++有影响力的人是位网络构建大师。好的人际关系可以增加你的知名度,使你拥有一个重要的人际圈。你可以施予支持与信息于这个圈子里的人,也可以接受他们给予你的。把自己想象成一个轮子的中心,四周由联系着的轮辐围绕。
形象你的魅力通过你的形象展现。你展现出了一种与强大的领导能力相吻合的形象了吗?站得挺直,走得昂首阔步,时刻记得:你是一个有价值的人。与他人见面时,大方地与之接触,握手有力而友好,清楚地说明你是谁,你的工作是什么。
交际习惯深吸一口气,使自己的语气听起来坚定。不说粗话,+不信口开河,犹豫的语气也同样会妨碍交流的有效进行。要用必要的肢体语言和手势来阐述你的观点,但不可过多地使用。学会清晰简洁的书面表达技巧。

他大口的呼吸起新鲜的空气,胸口一颤一颤。
迷茫、不解,各种情绪涌上心头。
这是哪?
随后,时宇下意识观察四周,然后更茫然了。
一个单人宿舍?
就算他成功得到救援,现在也应该在病房才对。
还有自己的身体……怎么会一点伤也没有。
带着疑惑,时宇的视线快速从房间扫过,最终目光停留在了床头的一面镜子上。
镜子照出他现在的模样,大约十七八岁的年龄,外貌很帅。
可问题是,这不是他!下载星星阅读app,阅读最新章节内容无广告免费
之前的自己,是一位二十多岁气宇不凡的帅气青年,工作有段时间了。
而现在,这相貌怎么看都只是高中生的年纪……
这个变化,让时宇发愣很久。
千万别告诉他,手术很成功……
身体、面貌都变了,这根本不是手术不手术的问题了,而是仙术。
他竟完全变成了另外一个人!
难道……是自己穿越了?
除了床头那摆放位置明显风水不好的镜子,时宇还在旁边发现了三本书。
时宇拿起一看,书名瞬间让他沉默。
《新手饲养员必备育兽手册》
《宠兽产后的护理》
《异种族兽耳娘评鉴指南》
时宇:???
前两本书的名字还算正常,最后一本你是怎么回事?
“咳。”
时宇目光一肃,伸出手来,不过很快手臂一僵。
就在他想翻开第三本书,看看这究竟是个什么东西时,他的大脑猛地一阵刺痛,大量的记忆如潮水般涌现。
