Photography turnover rate

"New Organization Lab" is one of the official WeChat accounts of our company, which is mainly responsible for writing. In the future, according to my mood, I will move out some articles I wrote there. This is the first one. At the same time, you are also welcome to pay attention to the official WeChat account of "New Organization Lab".

At the beginning of the new year, many people and enterprises are making various goals and plans, which is a season that forces people to think about words such as goals, ideals, meaning and values. Not long ago, I chatted with a good friend. She said that her ideal in life is to "earn a lot of money, so much as a goddess scattered flowers, which is countless and can't be saved." I teased her that one day when inflation reaches a certain level and the currency depreciates to a certain level, your wish will come true.

Of course, I deliberately distorted people's "life ideals." Her ideal, like many people, wants to achieve financial freedom, as if she were free after death. These days, more and more people's life dreams are to earn enough money for the rest of their lives before getting fat in middle age, and then find the so-called "poetry and distance" and live a life in the "humble room inscription": moss marks on the top, green grass in the curtain, great scholars talking and laughing, but there is no Ding Bai between us. You can tune the pipa, read the Golden Classics, make no fuss about silk and bamboo, and have no work to do.

Such a dream is like a poppy with an attractive fragrance, which makes groups of people flock to it.

I have a distant relative. The young couple are both executives of a large listed company. In their early forties, they really earned enough money to spend the rest of their lives, and then the family immigrated to Australia. At first, we can see them taking pictures in the circle of friends every day: decorating their own houses, mowing grass and planting flowers, swinging in the garden to bask in the sun, and going fishing and fox hunting with Australian neighbors ... The days look very leisurely and interesting, which makes relatives and friends who are working hard in China envious.

However, the ideal life is always somewhere else. Last year, they said they planned to return to China, and they also mobilized their relatives and friends to help them find projects or job opportunities. We met at a family gathering this Spring Festival. After such a long time of leisure, their faces are not as energetic as they thought, but they look a little listless and fat.

"In the past, every day when I opened my eyes, I was thinking about what meeting I was going to have today, whose e-mail I was going to reply to, which client I was going to meet, what solution I wanted ... I was so busy that I didn't even want to talk when I got home at night, just wanted to fall asleep. At that time, I thought it would be great if I could wake up naturally every day, have a leisurely breakfast, then read a book, watch a movie, water the flowers, chat with my beloved and take a walk. I can really live this life, but suddenly I find that it is really terrible to open my eyes and look at the white ceiling every day and not know what I want to do. I wake up every morning and lie in bed with my eyes open thinking about what to do today. I can think for two or three hours and think about lunch time. And then I found it gone for a long time. It seems that I suddenly don't know who I am, where I am and what I am doing. I don't even know why I am alive, I am almost depressed. " "When I returned to China this time, I met some former friends and talked about some projects. Although I am busy, I feel refreshed. This feeling is very cool! "

The life I tried to escape turned into another shape that bound me.

Life, there is nowhere to escape.

I always think that the so-called "realizing financial freedom and then retiring early" is a false proposition. Because people with that ability can't adapt to early retirement to find poetry and live far away; And people who adapt to this idle life don't have that ability. So looking back, whether in contemporary or ancient times, those entrepreneurs and military strategists who can talk with each other, holding our cups, talked about mulberry and hemp, and the idea of returning to the park was mostly because they were tired for a while and fleeting.

Haruki Murakami said: If you like it, you can stick to it, but if you don't like it, it won't last long. Shouting that the ideal of life is financial freedom, have you really thought about what kind of life you really like? Or just because they "look beautiful"?

Second,

Those who clamor for financial freedom and then want to do this and that are all "elderly middle-aged people" with only ideas. The younger generation is more powerful. They directly skipped the step of financial freedom and lived a life of looking for poetry and distance in their early twenties. Yes, young people nowadays don't want to go to work.

When we first came out to work, our seniors warned us that it was best to stay in a company for two or three years before considering job-hopping. Now the number of two or three years has been gradually reduced to one year or less. In many enterprises, especially small and medium-sized enterprises, employees who can stay for more than one year are truly stable and loyal "old" employees. The data released on 20 17 shows that:

In the past three years, the turnover rate of college graduates has continued to rise, with the turnover rate of 20 16 graduates as high as 26.5%. The turnover rate of employees in first-tier cities is 4. 1 percentage point higher than that in 20 15 years, which is 22.4%.

"The world is so big, I want to see" Take a month off for acute procrastination ","The company doesn't have winter and summer vacations "and" Can't get on Line 3 "... There are more and more reasons for not going to work, and the reasons for leaving are more and more wonderful. Young people began to get bored and escape from work. Even if your financial ability has not been reached, you should leave smartly or start your own business. Because "as soon as I entered the office, I felt suffocated. "

With the rising trend of turnover, both enterprises and employees can't escape their responsibilities. Enterprises that don't know what they want, employees who don't know what they want to do, enterprises that follow the old rules and don't want to change, and employees who pursue free expression, rich ideas and disgust, try their best to save costs from employees. Enterprises that only regard employees as cheap labor meet employees born in a colorful world full of temptations and opportunities to make money on the Internet, and then go their separate ways.

However, in addition to the so-called "three views" mentioned above, in addition to many people saying that young people now have less financial burden on their families and have been pampered since childhood, the reasons behind more "smart resignation" are confusion and anxiety.

Life is full of annoying trifles, which makes people extremely bored and anxious. Youth is so beautiful, why should it be wasted in such a miserable life? Why not take towards the distant, a poem in our hearts, to find our own country? ! This argument is not uncommon in today's media public opinion. The beauty in the distance depicted by those delicate strokes, not to mention young people, even many middle-aged people who have gained weight can't resist. The less I know what I want, the less I know why people want to work, and the more I yearn for that distant place.

But, travel around after work? If you don't have the ability to realize your travel experience and rich family background, you will face even worse "muddling along" when you come back: unpaid rent and a pile of bills to pay, as well as unstable livelihood jobs.

Going to work is very painful, and not going to work is even more painful. Leave for fun, no matter how far you go, as long as you come back, there will still be pressure and trouble. Because of the temporary escape, the fundamental problem cannot be solved.

Middle-aged or young people; Different ages have the same anxiety. Behind all this confusion and anxiety, I actually don't know what I want.

Traveling, taking photos, coming back to share your experiences with friends, these seemingly beautiful things need to be taken seriously, and the process is boring. For example, learn photography bit by bit, such as writing an experience, such as insisting on doing these seemingly simple things once a day. Few people can last for a month if it is not from the heart.

Admit it, you don't love those "distant places" that look beautiful at all. You only love the beautiful results and pictures in your fantasy. You have so many longings and expectations, just because they are far away, far enough for you to add beautiful filters at will, far enough to produce the beauty of distance.

We are all mortals in the secular world, and we all yearn for a paradise without troubles; That's because we want to escape from a boring, trivial and meaningless life. Escape is an instinct. However, we live in life, no matter how we choose, we can't escape from life itself after all. Ayn Rand said that in order to do things well, first of all, you have to like doing it, not the result.

If you want to take financial freedom, poetry and distance as the result or goal of life, you are doomed to be disappointed. Just as you regard your monthly salary as the goal and result of your work, the month before you get your salary, your life is full of troubles and pains.

Why do we have to work? There is a lecture with the same name in TED, and the speaker mentioned "thought technology".

Adam Smith, the father of the industrial revolution, said that human beings are naturally lazy, and they will not take the initiative to work unless you make something valuable. The way to give a thing value is to give it a certain reward after doing it. The greater the incentive, the more valuable it is and the more willing it is. This is the only reason for human work.

So people established an industrial system on the basis of this advanced conceptual assumption at that time. Today, we are still using this industrial system, and all kinds of enterprise management consulting theories, organizational structure construction, incentive mechanism and salary system are the embodiment of this conceptual assumption. We've been using this set for so long that we didn't realize it was just a hypothesis, not a fact.

Work is to pay and make money, which is the value system we set for ourselves and the shackles we put on ourselves. When everyone tells you that work is to make money, such a single meaning will make you involuntarily bored; Then we will look for more meaning, so we will create and imagine many seemingly meaningful poems and distant places. We have always forgotten that work itself can be given more meaning and value. For example, you can meet all kinds of people at work, feel needed at work, test a simple idea at work, or just like it.

Many times, the experience of traveling also exists in our daily work, but our deep-rooted boredom with work blinds our eyes to find it. We stubbornly believe that beauty is only in the distance, stubbornly focus on the pain and complexity of life, and stubbornly believe that only by staying away from the present life can we find inner peace and a beautiful life. This stubbornness will make us turn every distance we can reach into a kind of life.

If every departure is only for realization, then the experience of the journey will only be endurance. Paradoxically, this tolerance has now become a reason for seeking recognition and understanding.

If we sum up all kinds of inspirational stories told around us, we will find that the stories told by our inspirational role models are always full of unforgettable hatred. In those stories that struggled for 18 years to sit down with classmates for coffee, it seems that the only beauty is the result of finally becoming rich and famous, and the only process in the middle is pain, patience and sacrifice. Of course, we can call it "tempering". We are always flaunting and exaggerating this "hard work" process. It seems that the harder this effort is, the more painful it is, and the more valuable the result is. Therefore, we always think that we have to go through hardships to gain financial freedom and have the ability and freedom to find our ideal life.

I like some craftsmen very much. Not because what they make by hand looks good, but because they have always had an indifferent attitude. They can immerse themselves in what they have at hand, and they devote themselves wholeheartedly to the construction, which has nothing to do with external returns, just because they are willing. Most of them can't reach the secular financial freedom at present, or even never, but they have found their own poems and distant places.

Wu dialect

We have never asked ourselves what the "distance" we really want, but we are busy pursuing a distance. We pursue goals because we have no goals. We set goals for ourselves in pursuit, and in the end, we turn the means to achieve them into goals. Looking for it, I finally lost myself.

The same is true for enterprises. At the beginning of each year, we always make various goals and development plans. We seek development in order to achieve such goals, formulate such development goals and formulate a series of quantitative indicators to achieve these goals, day after day, year after year. Maybe it's a profit, maybe it's a loss. In the end, I always feel something is missing. I always feel miserable and bored. I always wonder when this day will end and when I can realize my ultimate ideal. What is the ultimate ideal? Earn 10 billion? Listing? Global coverage? and then

The road of life is like exploring in a big wasteland. There are gold, silver and jewels, flowers and fruits, scenery and storms in the wasteland. Some people collected flowers, harvested fruits, enjoyed the scenery along the way, and picked up a lot of gold by the way. They think this wasteland is quite good. Some people just want to keep digging for gold. They can only remember that the nasty storm affected his gold digging process. They kept complaining that this wasteland was not beautiful and wanted to change it.

However, this is the only wasteland in life.
