What is useful is the "material"
The same strange root, the carpenter felt useless and abandoned it; Sculptors regard it as a treasure and carve it into works of art. The completely different results give us a revelation: what is the real "material"? What are the criteria for measuring "material" and "immaterial"? I think: what is useful is "material". "Useful" is the standard to measure "material".
So do people. Everyone can't be a thorough talent, but everyone can play his role in a specific field. What is talent? Useful people are talents. The comedian Pan Changjiang put it well: "What's wrong with being small? Concentrated are the essence, small and useful, and very useful! " Yes, that's the truth. On the stage, we need a clown like Pan Changjiang, not a nine-foot man like Yao Ming. It can be said that Pan Changjiang on the stage is more useful than Yao Ming, and Yao Ming on the court is more useful than Pan Changjiang. This is the difference between a "comedian" and a "star".
Business tycoon Zong Houqing put it well: "Useful people are used by me, useful people are used by themselves, and then the enterprise will live." It is this sentence that has become the employment standard of Wahaha Group. Zong's Wahaha Group is the first company to implement the employment standard of "only looking at skills, not academic qualifications" throughout the country. Indeed, as a wise decision-maker and a capable leader, we should be "competent and useful".
Throughout the ages, there are countless examples of being good at employing people. Cao Cao once ignored Guan Yu as an enemy and imposed great kindness. Regarding the opposition of the counselors, Cao Cao said frankly: "Guan Yunchang, as a warrior and a benevolent general, has great potential." The clearance of Huarong Road proves this point. Xin once condescended to make friends with the harem, regardless of his humble position, and treated him with courtesy. His reason is simple-"Hou Gong, useful." Sure enough, the "facing north and committing suicide in my Lord" soon confirmed all this.
Useful is "material"; What is useful is "talent". With the progress of the times and the increasingly clear division of labor in society, the criteria for judging "material and immaterial" should move towards specialization. It is better to be "as good" than "omniscient". If a person gives full play to his role in his specific development space and creates social value, then he must be useful, then he must be professional.
Dear friends, please believe that "since God has given talents, let them find jobs!" Please believe that you are a colorful pillar on a beautiful rainbow in a clear sky. Even if you can only show one color, you are still useful, and the rainbow is beautiful because of you.
What is useful is the material. May we all become useful people, serve and benefit the society!
