Outline of a paper on "self-confidence" or "belief"

According to a survey by the American Textile Retailers Association, the initial efforts were not successful, and almost half of the salesmen gave up their efforts:

48% of the salesmen quit when they found 1 people.

25% of the salesmen found two people and quit.

15% of the salesmen found three people and quit.

12% of the salesmen find three people and continue to work, and 80% of the business is done by these salesmen.

@ Gottman, a world-class sales guru, once said, "Sales begin with rejection". You can't learn to sell unless you accept the rejection. Someone once made an interesting survey, that is, in the United States, Japan, South Korea and Brazil. During the 30-minute negotiation process, the number of times customers or potential customers said "no", that is, the number of times they were rejected was as follows: 2 times in Japan, 5 times in the United States, 7 times in South Korea and 42 times in Brazil.

"Self-confidence is the first secret of success." The elevator industry I am engaged in also needs marketing. If you give up after the first promotion is unsuccessful, there will be no performance today. Bacon once said: "The most important talent in life is fearless, followed by fearless, and the third is fearless."

At the beginning of the company's establishment, we haven't received orders for more than half a year. During that time, in order to save money, several of us lived by eating instant noodles all day, and at the same time we had extensive contact with business. After more than half a year's efforts, we finally received the first order, and our career has a new starting point. The situation at that time was very difficult, but in that case, we didn't give up. Not giving up means that we have confidence in ourselves and what we are doing.

Nick is a dispatcher of a railway company. He works hard and is responsible. But he has a shortcoming, that is, he lacks self-confidence, is pessimistic about life, and often looks at the world with negative and skeptical eyes.

One day, all the employees in the company rushed to celebrate the boss's birthday, and everyone left in a hurry early. Unfortunately, Nick was accidentally locked in a refrigerated truck to be repaired. In fear, Nick knocked and shouted desperately in the carriage, but the whole company left and no one could hear him. Nick's palm was red and swollen, and his throat was hoarse. He ignored it. Finally, he had to sit on the ground and breathe. The more he thought about it, the more afraid he became, thinking that the temperature in the carriage was only zero, and he would definitely freeze to death if he didn't go out.

The next morning, the employees of the company came to work one after another. They opened the car door and found Nick lying on the ground. They sent Nick to first aid, but it was impossible to save his life. But everyone was surprised, because the freezing switch in the refrigerated truck didn't start, and there was enough oxygen in this huge carriage. What's even more puzzling is that it's more than ten degrees straight inside, but Nick froze to death!

Nick didn't die at the zero point in the carriage, he died at the freezing point in his heart. He has sentenced himself to death. How can he survive?

This is a true story that happened in Africa.

Six miners are mining coal deep underground. Suddenly, the mine collapsed, the exit was blocked, and the miners were immediately isolated from the outside world.

Everybody, look at me, I look at you, saying nothing. Any one of them can see their situation. With their experience, they realized that the biggest problem they faced was lack of oxygen. If they handle it properly, the underground air can last for more than three hours, up to three and a half hours.

People outside must know that they are trapped, but such a serious landslide means that they have to drill again to find them. Can they be saved before the air runs out? These experienced miners decided to make every effort to save oxygen. They agreed to reduce physical exertion as much as possible, turn off the light they carried with them and lie flat on the ground.

"The most important talent in life is fearless first, fearless second and fearless third." Everyone was silent, it was dark all around, and only one person had a watch. It was difficult to estimate the time.

Everyone asks this man the question: how long has it been? How long will it take? What time is it now?

Time has been lengthened. In their view, 2 minutes is like 1 hour. Every time they hear an answer, they are more desperate.

The person in charge of them found that if they continue to be so anxious, their breathing will be more rapid, which will kill them. So, he asked the person wearing the watch to master the time and report it every half hour, and others were not allowed to ask again.

Everyone obeys orders. The first half hour passed, and the man said, "It's been half an hour." Everyone is whispering, and there is a gloomy cloud in the air.

People who wear watches find it more and more difficult to inform everyone that the deadline is approaching as time goes by. So he decided without authorization not to let everyone die so painfully. When he told everyone that the second and a half hours came, it was actually 45 minutes. No one noticed what went wrong. Because everyone believes in him. After the first successful lie, the third notice time was extended to one hour. He said, "It's been another half hour." The other five people are calculating how much time is left in their minds.

The hands of the watch kept going, and everyone received a time report every hour. People outside accelerated the rescue work. They know where the trapped miners are, and it is difficult for them to rescue them in four hours.

After four and a half hours, the most likely situation is to find the bodies of six miners. But they found that five of them were still alive, and only 1 died of suffocation. He is the man wearing a watch.

A businessman in new york felt pity when he saw a ruler salesman in rags. He threw 1 dollar into the ruler seller's box, ready to walk away, but he thought for a moment, stopped again, took out a ruler from the box and said to the ruler seller, "You and I are both businessmen, but the goods you handle are different. You sell a ruler. "

A few months later, at a social occasion, a well-dressed salesman met the new york businessman and introduced himself: "You may not remember me, but I will never forget you. You gave me back my self-esteem and self-confidence. I always felt like a beggar until the day you bought my ruler and told me I was a businessman. "

Salespeople always treat themselves as beggars, isn't it because they are not confident? It was from the words of a businessman in new york that the salesman found confidence and started a new life. From this, we can easily see the power of self-confidence. Lack of self-confidence is often the main reason for weak personality and unsuccessful career.

A painter sent one of his masterpieces to the gallery for exhibition. He put down his pen ingeniously and added, "If the viewer thinks this painting is not good, please mark it." As a result, the picture is full of traces, and there is almost no place to be blamed. A few days later, the painter painted the same painting for exhibition, but this time the postscript was different from last time. He asked people to mark all their favorite wonderful pens. When he retrieved the painting, he saw that the painting was covered with marks again, and all the accused places were replaced by praise marks.

"A confident person can turn smallness into greatness and mediocrity into magic." Everyone in the world sees things differently, so never expect everyone's praise. The painter's deeds are a good example. If the painter is depressed after being accused and thinks that he can't do it, he may be depressed and have no confidence to continue his artistic creation.

Once, a depressed manager went to seek the help of Napoleon Hill, a famous American successful scientist. He lost everything because of the bankruptcy of his partner. Napoleon Hill stood him in front of a thick curtain and said to him, "You will see the only person in the world who can restore your confidence and overcome difficulties." What is hidden under the curtain is actually a mirror, so when Napoleon Hill opened the curtain, it was not others but himself who appeared in front of the manager.

The manager touched the bearded face with his hand, looked at the people in the mirror from head to toe for a few minutes, lost in thought, thanked Napoleon Hill after a while and left.

A few months later, the manager appeared in front of Napoleon Hill again, but he was not a depressed person at that time, but dressed up from head to toe, looking refreshed and confident. He told Napoleon Hill, "I left your office that day just a tramp. I found confidence in the mirror. Now that I have found a job with a good salary, I am sure that my previous success will definitely come again. "

Sophia loren, a famous Italian movie star who enjoys a good reputation in the world, can become a world-famous super movie star, which is inseparable from her affirmation of her own value and her self-confidence.

In order to survive and love the film industry, 16-year-old Roland came to Rome and wanted to get involved in the film industry here. Unexpectedly, the first audition failed. All the photographers said that she couldn't meet the standard of beauty and complained about her nose and ass. No choice, director carlo Panthu had to call her to the office and suggested that she cut her hips a little and her nose a little shorter. Generally speaking, many actors do what the director says. However, Roland, at an early age, was courageous and opinionated, and refused the other party's request. She said: "Of course I know, because my appearance is very different from those actresses who have become famous. They are all outstanding in appearance and have good features, but I am not. My face has too many problems, but it adds up to more charm. If there is a lump on our nose, I will not hesitate to remove it. But it is unreasonable to say that my nose is too long, because I know that the nose is the main part of the face, and it is the nose that makes the face have characteristics. I like the way my nose and face look. To tell the truth, my face is really different, but why should it look like others? "

"I want to keep my true colors and I don't want to change anything."

"I am willing to remain true."

It is because of Roland's insistence that director Carlo Pantu re-examined, really understood sophia loren, and began to understand and appreciate her.

Roland didn't listen to the photographer, didn't give up her personality to cater to others, and didn't lose confidence because of others, so she was able to fully show her unique beauty in the film. And her unique appearance and warm, cheerful and unrestrained temperament began to be recognized by people. Later, Two Women, starring her, was a great success and won the Oscar for Best Actress.

Once upon a time, on the same mountain, there were two identical stones. Three years later, there was a completely different change. One stone is admired and worshipped by many people, while the other stone is reviled by others. This stone is extremely unbalanced and says, "Dude, three years ago, we were the same stone on a mountain. Today, the gap is so big that my heart is particularly painful. " . Another stone replied: Dude, do you remember that three years ago, a sculptor came? Are you afraid of the pain of cutting on your body? You told him that you could simply carve by yourself, but I was imagining the future and didn't care about the pain of cutting on you, which made today different. The difference between the two: one cares about what you want and the other cares about what you are afraid of. How do you expect to live in this world? What kind of person will you be in the future? What do you want most?

Former British Prime Minister Lloyd George has the habit of closing the door behind him. One day, George and his friends were walking in the yard. Whenever they pass a door, George always closes it behind him. "Is it necessary for you to close these doors?" My friend is puzzled.

"Oh, of course it is necessary." George smiled and said, "I have been closing the door behind me all my life." You know, it's necessary. When you close the door, you also leave behind everything in the past, whether it is a beautiful achievement or an annoying mistake, and then you can start over. " Hearing this, my friend was lost in thought. It is in this spirit that George succeeded step by step and set foot on the position of British Prime Minister.

"I've been closing the door behind me all my life", what a clever metaphor! As a mortal, everyone has had the shadow of pain, frustration and failure ... carrying them will only make the footsteps heavy. Do you want to go into battle lightly? Do you want to be happy and successful? The method is simple: leave the past behind at any time.

Life should go against the current, and the most important thing is to always respect yourself.

One day, a farmer's donkey accidentally fell into a dry well. The farmer racked his brains to find a way to save the donkey, but several hours later, the donkey was still whining in the well.

Finally, the farmer decided to give up. He thinks the donkey is too old to save it, but the well must be filled in anyway. So the farmer invited his neighbor to help him bury the donkey in the well to avoid its pain.

The farmer's neighbor, with a shovel in his hand, began to shovel dirt into the dry well. When the donkey realized his situation, it began to cry in pain. But surprisingly, the donkey was quiet after a while. The farmer looked curiously at the bottom of the well. He was stunned by what he saw:

When the mud shoveled into the well fell on the donkey's back, the donkey's reaction was amazing-it shook the mud aside and stood on the shoveled mud pile!

In this way, the donkey shook off all the dirt that everyone shoveled on it at the bottom of the well and stood up. Soon, the donkey proudly rose to the wellhead, and then ran away with everyone's surprised expression!

Tips: Just like donkeys, in the journey of life, sometimes we will inevitably fall into a "dry well" and be dumped on us by various "sands". The secret of getting out of these "dry wells" is to shake off the "sediment" and then stand on it!

A child was absorbed in painting. The teacher looked at it and asked, "This painting is really interesting: tell me what you are painting?"

"I'm drawing God."

"But no one knows what God looks like."

"When I finish painting, they will know."
