3 tips to steal from Hercules to be more fulfilled in the world of work by Hotel ★★★ Restaurant gourmand coconut Lodge Majunga.
Burn-out, humiliation, deep trouble, lack of consideration : sometimes, our professional life seems really very difficult. Phew, a demigod explains today how to get out the high head (and with a smile) situations which may seem unexpected.
“Who hasn't, at work, got the impression to relive the labours of Hercules : clean the Augean stables, combating a nine-headed Hydra… This may seem discouraging, less than follow in the footsteps of the hero to decrypt his victories and adopt its methods”, We announced the philosopher Jean-Louis Cianni, that analysis, in his fascinating book “The arms of Hercules”, our professional lives through the different work of the demigod objective ? Allow us to give meaning to our work…and avoid us burn-out ! Captivating and insightful, This book makes us rethink our way of seeing the work…and it feels good. Overview with 3 tricks stitched to Hercules.
1/ I'm learning to count on my colleagues.
As Hercules before the Lernian Hydra with many heads, one is sometimes faced a large number of tasks that never cease to multiply… Hercules, him, has understood that “proud and lonely battle is mostly lost in advance”. This is the reason why he did not hesitate, demigod as, to ask for help from his nephew Iolaus, who is responsible for cauterize the wounds of the Heads decided to avoid that they repel. And two, they were able to win ! “If the team can be a brake, It also brings a resolving power undeniable and infinitely superior to that of the individual”, reminds us of Jean-Louis Cianni.
2/ I do not give my lens (and I am learning to be patient).
If a moment you have a shot of blues because you can't have what you really want, blow a shot and watch Hercules : him, Yet if impulsive, has ran after the DOE of Cerynie for a year before catching it. Car “patience allows you both to temper its enthusiasm and reverse the situation to its advantage” (at the appropriate time). So it does not drop arm, we advance, Surely, not releasing eye our goal. And if our way to does not work, We try another and continue ! Yaaa !
3/ I keep my values.
For his eighth work, Hercules must steal the mares (not “beautiful and cute” as expected but “carnivorous and hungry”) Diomede and bring it to Argos. As with these mares, the work is now often “perverted”, becoming a source of suffering. On the one hand, the “work addiction” We makes sick and we destroyed, another “the mindlessness” can sleep our neurons and seriously harm our morale. All without even talking about selfishness and ambient cynicism. Then, as “often, the bad example comes from above”, It remains faithful to its values (respect, freedom,…). It or break it. Make an effort, Yes, but depressing for the dummies and tyrannical leaders, non !
