On "Wooden Bucket Theory" from the Story of Wooden Bucket
When I was a class teacher when I was young, I felt that I had to rely on scientific methods, so I eagerly studied some management theories. One of them was the "barrel theory", which meant that the water content of a barrel made of scattered boards was determined by the shortest board. It makes sense and is widely used in class management-grasping class collective construction and starting from the worst aspects; Grasp classroom learning and start with the weakest subjects? It was very effective at that time and I couldn't help but be elated. However, when I applied this theory to the work of individual students, I soon became confused. For excellent students, this theory still makes sense: only by asking excellent students to grasp their poor subjects and weak subjects can they develop in an all-round way and get the best results. But this is only theoretical, and few students can really do it. For ordinary students, this theory is hard to justify: because their "boards" are uniform and none of them are "long", I really don't know which one to let them develop. Don't I ask them to make progress? Not to mention the underachievers: their "eyes" are at the bottom of the bucket, and they can't keep it without water. There seems to be no good way but to throw it away. Because this theory has not been well applied to individual students, I have been puzzled for many years. Then I heard a story about a wooden barrel, and I woke up like a dream.
A water bearer used two buckets to carry water, and one of the buckets cracked and leaked. It's a long way from the stream to his home, so when he gets home, he only has half a bucket of water at a time. And another intact bucket always comes home with a full bucket of water. One day, the cracked bucket said to the bearer, "I'm really ashamed." I want to apologize to you. For a long time, I can only transport half a bucket of water, which makes your work value not fully reflected. " The bearer said, "Never mind, let's go out for a walk."
I am a very sensitive person, so I quickly chimed in and said, "I guess the grass on the other side of the cracked bucket must be lush." The storyteller smiled and continued: Sure enough, the defective bucket was very happy to see the beautiful flowers on the roadside. But after a while, it became sad again. It apologized to the bearer again because it missed half of the water. The bearer asked, "Have you noticed that only you have flowers here, but not there?"? That's because I know you're leaking, so I planted some flowers on your side. Your leakage watered them so that I could pick beautiful flowers to decorate my room. "
I was deeply moved by this story. Looking at the same thing from another angle, what was originally suppressed also contains beauty. If we educators look at education from a different angle, maybe more children will become "adults" and "talents".
Compared with the "barrel theory", the barrel is passive, and we just want to use it and transform it, ignoring the feeling of the barrel. In the story of wooden bucket, wooden bucket expresses its guilt, because it makes the work value of water bearer not fully reflected, and as teachers, do we feel the guilt from their hearts?
Secondly, in the story of the barrel, I was deeply impressed by the kindness of the water bearer. If, as I guess, the grass on the other side of the cracked barrel must be lush, then this story is only to comfort those defective "barrels", and defects also have good times. But this kind water bearer tells us how to make defects beautiful. In our education, there has always been such an understanding: find differences and eliminate them; When have you ever had the idea of finding differences and teaching according to them? Is it suitable for the needs of modern society to make "standard parts" without difference?
Thirdly, in the story of the barrel, I was impressed by the wisdom and tenacity of the water bearer. His wisdom reminds him of how to use the defects of wooden barrels to create beauty. But do you know how difficult it is to carry barrels with unequal weights on both sides? As teachers, if we also find students' defects, can we use our wisdom and tenacity to turn students' defects into beauty like water carriers? If we do this, we will inevitably encounter difficulties in transporting water. Can we survive?
This story gives us too much inspiration. I just think that in this era of advocating "people-oriented" and "educating people-oriented", as educators, we should keep pace with the times and change our educational concept from another angle, so as to re-understand our education and our cause; Changing a ruler is to reflect on many of our past stylized standards. We will get to know our students again and find more talents. In another way, consider how to "plant flowers for defective barrels", and we will re-recognize our teaching work and redesign our career.
Hmm. How interesting
Hope to adopt
thank you
The story of the farmer and the barrel is very controversial.
Today I will tell you a story. The name of this story is Three Little Monks Carrying Water.
A long time ago, there was a lively and clever young monk in a red robe. When he passed a mountain, he saw a temple on the top of it. He wants to find out.
He managed to climb up. He saw no one inside, only a Guanyin bodhisattva. The flowers in her hand have withered. The hardworking young monk went down the mountain with a burden to fetch water. He filled the bucket and returned to the temple. He poured water into the bodhisattva's bottle. Bodhisattva's flowers have grown up in the bottle again. The young monk and the Bodhisattva laughed.
Two monks passed by here, one tall and the other fat. The fat monk said,' I'm going to take a shower, you go first! I'm going to take a bath by the river. Then he ran to the river.
The tall monk also passed by. He saw a temple on the hill. He climbed up. He met the young monk, stored water with him and cleaned the temple. The Bodhisattva smiled.
The fat monk lost his shoes and clothes, took a good bath in the river, and then went to find the high monk by water. He saw a temple on the hill, as if to visit it.
He climbed the mountain with difficulty. He saw two monks there. He also saw a big jar of water in the jar. He was so thirsty that he drank a big jar of water at one breath. Both of them were thirsty, so he poured the water out of the Bodhisattva's bottle. Then, no one carried water.
After a while, they were so hungry that they took chicken legs and steamed bread out of their pockets and ate them. They choked while eating, then ran down the mountain quickly, drank enough water and went back to knock on the wooden fish.
A mouse dropped a candle and set fire to the house. They go back and forth, and there is water to put out the fire. They finally put out the fire. They worked together in Qixin and finally lived a stable life.
I hope the children will not learn from these three monks and be hardworking people.
Dung bucket and bucket, this story is too strong. How to write this story?
Reflections on the story of dung bucket
What kind of life you have, what kind of life you have. I am also thinking: is this something that plays an important role? Whether it is the function of human ideology, whether people's views on things are inherently biased, or whether we look at the colorless world with colored eyes in the process of understanding things, our views have changed. Perhaps this is people's arrogance and prejudice.
It is also a wooden barrel, but because of what is inside, the situation has changed and people have been "treated" differently. It also tells us a lot about a person The knowledge and connotation he has learned largely determine your position and honor in society, as well as your income and quality of life. That is to say, your knowledge, connotation, cultivation, etc. Maybe what you have in this bucket largely determines your future and destiny. For example, if your heart is filled with countries and enterprises, then your "bucket" has a large capacity. If your heart is full of your own selfish interests and your own gains and losses, then the capacity of your "bucket" is very small.
What does a bucket in krylov's fable tell us?

What's the story of Swift's barrel?
The Story of the Bucket is an outstanding satire with far-reaching significance. Swift pointed his finger at the church and satirized the Catholic Church, the Anglican Church and Calvinism (English Puritans) through the images of the three brothers. They think they are authentic Christians and act according to the Bible, but in fact they obey the sun, not the sun.
At the same time, the work also attacked the poor academics, shallow literary criticism and social vices at that time. The Story of a Wooden Bucket is one of the important works of the British Enlightenment criticizing the church, and it is also the first important literary work of Swift.
(5) Extended reading of the story of wooden barrel.
A story similar to a barrel:
Once upon a time, there was a family living in poverty. The main source of life is to wash buckets every day to earn money to support the family.
One day, the children who were still at school at home brushed all the barrels accumulated that day and put them in a large open space. The child is very happy. When he got home, he told his father what he had done today, and his father gave him a reward.
The next morning, just before dawn, the child got up and prepared to clean up the dry bucket. However, when he got to the land, he saw buckets all over the ground, which was blown stagger by the wind, which surprised the children. Originally happy mood, suddenly become depressed. At this time, the father came from behind and comforted the child with generous hands.
Say to the child, "Look, son, everything is hard to predict, and some things won't come true according to your idea. In this case, let's see if we can change this situation in any way. " The child looked at his father expectantly. Dad smiled, went to a bucket and told his children, "Go and get some water."
The child did as his father said and took some water. Dad poured the water into the empty bucket until it was almost full. Dad called the child to his side and said, "Come on, son, you push hard." The child pushed the bucket full of water with great strength, but didn't push it down. Then the father said to the child, "Look, so the wind won't blow it down."
The child seems to have learned something. Dad said to the child, "We can't change the size of the wind or the blowing time, but we can change the bucket to make it strong, firm and stable."
In other words, we can't dominate the changes of physical objects and the development of things, but we can change ourselves to better adapt to their changes. "The child smiled, and resumed the real and lively smiling face of the day before.

A small wooden bucket is made up of many boards.
How much water you can hold depends on the shortest board.
The longest plank is my dream.
The shortest board is my pain.
Mutongya Mu Tong
I long for neat boards.
Form a circle
The bucket full of water is heavy.

Just like our lives.
How many things have you experienced?
Stay on your own shortcomings
I will be calm when I have an advantage.
I am more excited to correct my shortcomings.
I long for neat boards.

I long for neat boards.
Form a circle.
The bucket full of water is heavy.
The bucket full of water is heavy.
The bucket full of water is heavy.
An example of the barrel effect
If an enterprise wants to become a durable wooden barrel, it must first try its best to increase the length of all boards. Only by keeping all boards "high enough" can we fully embody the team spirit and give full play to the team role. In this era of fierce competition, more and more managers realize that as long as one employee in an organization is in a weak position, it will affect the whole organization to achieve the expected goals. The best way to improve the competitiveness of every employee and effectively unite their strength is to educate and train employees. Enterprise training is a meaningful and practical work, and many famous enterprises attach great importance to employee training.
According to the authoritative IDC company's forecast, in the United States, by 2005, the total expenses of enterprises for employee training will reach11400 million dollars. The president of GE, who is known as the "best manager" in the United States, claims that the annual employee training expenses of GE will reach 500 million dollars and will increase exponentially. Hewlett-Packard Company has an education program on management norms. Just this training program, the annual research funding is as high as millions of dollars. They not only study the content of education, but also study which education method is more acceptable to people.
The essence of employee training is to increase the capacity of each "barrel" through training and enhance the overall strength of the enterprise. In order to improve the overall performance of enterprises, besides training all employees, we should pay more attention to the development of "short board"-non-star employees.
In practical work, managers often pay more attention to the use of "star employees" and ignore the use and development of ordinary employees. If enterprises pay too much attention to "star employees" and ignore the general employees who account for the majority of the company, it will hit team morale, thus making the talent and teamwork of "star employees" out of balance. And practice has proved that it is difficult for superstars to obey the team's decision. A star is a star because he feels that his starting point is different from others. What they need is to constantly improve their level and challenge themselves. Therefore, although the light of "star employees" is easy to see, the non-star employees who account for the vast majority of the company also need encouragement. Two heads are better than one. If we encourage "non-star employees" well, the effect can be much better than "star employees".
There is an employee of Hua Xun Company. Because of the bad relationship with the supervisor, some ideas at work are not affirmed, so I am worried and not interested. As it happens, Motorola needs a technician seconded from Hua Xun to assist in their marketing services. Therefore, after careful consideration, the general manager of Hua Xun decided to send this employee. The employees are very happy and feel that they have a chance to display their fists and feet. Before leaving, the general manager simply explained to the employees: "Going out to work represents both the company and us. I don't need to teach you how to do it. If you feel overwhelmed, just call back. "
A month later, Motorola called: "The soldiers you sent are great!" "I have something better!" When the general manager of Hua Xun didn't forget to promote the company, he was really relieved. After the employee came back, the department head looked at him with special respect, and he also increased his confidence. Later, this employee made great contributions to the development of Hua Xun.
The example of Hua Xun shows that paying attention to the encouragement of "short board" can make the "short board" longer and longer, thus improving the overall strength of enterprises. Human resource management should not be limited to individual ability and level, but should integrate all people into the team, scientifically allocate and use good steel in the cutting edge. The height of the board of directors is sometimes not a personal problem, but an organizational problem.
On the stage of home appliances, a hundred schools of thought contend, but Haier runs at the forefront step by step. Why? Haier's capital is no thicker than that of others, the number of international talents introduced is no higher than that of others, and the quality of talents is no higher than that of others ... In short, there are not many "high planks" in Haier, but people have good teams, and the overall performance is no worse than any "high planks".
Therefore, in the process of strengthening the water-holding capacity of wooden barrels, we cannot simply oppose "high boards" and "low boards". Everyone has his own "high board". Instead of kicking him out, we should give full play to his strengths and put him in a position suitable for him.
Summarize the content of the story of Barrel in the Wind in one sentence.
This summer vacation, I read the book "Give yourself some confidence in your growth" and gained a lot. In the form of a short story, this book truly reflects the dribs and drabs that all people may encounter on the road to success, instills profound truth into us with the secrets of successful people, and makes our road brighter. For example, in the story "As long as you like", the son is in prison, and the old father can't finish the hard work of plowing potato fields alone, so he writes to his son. The son sent a telegram to the old man: "For God's sake, Dad, don't plow that field, I buried the gun there." The next day, a dozen FBI agents and local police accidentally turned over the old man's land in order to find the gun, but they still couldn't find it. My son did the old man a big favor. In this story, the son is a little cunning, but his cunning is out of true filial piety to his father, but he is forced by reality to give birth to a kind of wisdom, which is really embarrassing and touching. Thought is the source power that determines a person's behavior. Only by thinking sincerely can we put it into action sincerely.

The story of barrel theory
Wooden barrels are surrounded by boards, so the shortest board determines how much water the barrel can hold at most. It tells us that people's shortcomings often become fatal defects, so we should develop in an all-round way and improve our comprehensive strength. Of course, geeks are developing all the time, so it's better to go their own way.
