“职场是一座丛林,你不仅要生存下来,更要取得成功。”——Dumb Little Man的博文里介绍了以下九种职业素质,帮助你成为成功的捕手,在职场里左右逢源。

必背语句

① All it requires is thinking of problems through a different set of eyes, or different dimension.

你只需换一种思维方式,从另一种角度思考问题。

② An ability to own and work towards success is a skill which gives long lasting returns.

把握成功,并为之付出努力,你将会终身受益。

③ If you are constantly learning, it will be tough to be or appear to be interested in mediocrity.

如果你不停地充电学习,那么想沦为平庸都很难,也不会甘于平庸。

④ Your network should never be restricted to people in your domain but it should span other departments too.

人脉不应仅局限于自己的工作圈子,还要延伸到其他领域。

⑤ Much of life is give and take. Work is no exception.

生活里有收获,也有付出。工作也是一样。

⑥ Strike the right balance and you would see its real magic.

保持不卑不亢,你就会受益匪浅。

Out of Box Thinking

All it requires is thinking of problems through a different set of eyes, or different dimension. Sit back and try to solve the problem from the eyes of a 6-year old, turn things upside down, and absolutely challenge the norm. Go outside and sit in a subway station (or somewhere you generally don't sit to work) and think about why your solutions haven't worked so far? What has worked?

When everyone thinks and recommends a lackluster way, lackluster results will follow. Change your surroundings, change your views, change your thought process and come up with a killer idea!

Taking Ownership

A process with a good leader, input from others, and true direction, has a much better chance of success. Be the person that jumps in and takes on a new project (just don't over-commit). An ability to own and work towards success is a skill which gives long lasting returns.

Eagerness to Learn

After a certain period, a job becomes monotonous and people become bored and eventually even lazy. They lose all the zeal to learn new things and although they won't admit this, their actions would make you believe they have thrown in the towel and are satisfied with a status quo life and career. If you really want to move ahead, don't get into this rut. Don't tune out.

Always remain eager to learn; you never know what knowledge or capability will push you up in your career. Remember, you need an open mindset and positive attitude to approach work. If you are constantly learning, it will be tough to be or appear to be interested in mediocrity.

An Eye for Detail

When you master something and know the minute details, your logic and ideas will be highly regarded. While people love to argue, they get easily impressed by intelligent reasoning too.

Willingness to Help

Much of life is give and take. Work is no exception. If you are the person that is constantly stepping out of your comfort zone in order to help others, people (most) will return the favor when you ask. That's the key though, you have to be willing to help someone and not too proud to ask them for help when you need it.

Networking

Your network should never be restricted to people in your domain but it should span other departments too. Again, break away from comfort and get engaged with someone from a different department. A strong network always gives you an upper hand, not only to receive but also influence the information flow.

Solution Seeking Mindset

People love to mention and talk about problems. However, when you ask for their solutions to those problems, they aren't willing to take a risk and offer up a solution. It is these times that a positive mindset can send the right vibes across and can really give you a lot of attention. Don't avoid complainers, listen to them just long enough to hear the problem, then try to come up with a solution.

Humility

Arrogance has its own advantages but it never attracts more people than the magic done by humility. Humility needs to be pitched with much care lest it lets people take undue advantage of you. Strike the right balance and you would see its real magic.

Being Practical

A practical decision made at right time with right attitude has the ability to shower you with long lasting fame. Remember, the people who are at the top are nothing but practical.

Notes:

1. throw in the towel

意为“认输,放弃”。由拳击比赛得来,把毛巾或海绵等丢进拳击场则表示某选手放弃比赛。

例句:We're never going to persuade them, so we might as well throw in the towel now.

我们决不会说服他们,因此我们不妨现在就放弃。

2. get into this rut

get into a rut是“墨守成规”的意思,rut的原意是软地上的车辙,车轮容易陷入并卡住,可引申为“常规,老规矩”。那么,get into this rut就是指陷入像上文列出的那些消极的表现。

例句:You mustn't let yourself get into a rut.

你不能陷入老一套。

3. tune out

意为“不理,对……没有反应”。文中引申为“态度漠然”。

例句:The children tuned out their mother's commands.

孩子们不理会母亲的吩咐。

4. give and take

意为“平等交换,协调”。Much of life is give and take.的意思是说“生活中通常是有付出,也有所得”。

例句:A happy marriage depends largely on give and take.

美满的婚姻在很大程度上取决于互敬互让。
