Letter to the daughter: dial the watch for 5 minutes

Dear daughter:

You know, my mother's watch has been 5 minutes faster than the standard time. You might say: "Own watch should be the same as standard time. Why should you dial 5 minutes?"

It is a positive attitude to live by dialing the watch for 5 minutes. You act according to the time of your watch, always five minutes ahead of others. These 5 minutes in advance are the starting times in the race of life. After the whistle of the referee in the race, whoever starts first, whoever prevails, is the same in life. An employee who is 5 minutes earlier than others is responsible for the work in the boss's mind. It is a symbol of hard work; a student who is five minutes earlier than others is a diligent and uplifting image in the teacher's mind; The boss or the teacher will especially value those who are five minutes earlier than others.

Our unit has a college graduate student, called Wang Chen. When I first arrived, I was assigned to the warehouse to work as a custodian. On the first day, she went into the warehouse half an hour earlier and found that the hygiene in the warehouse had been done well. Her master was already sorting out the goods. The next day she went to work thirty-five minutes in advance, but she found that the master was still earlier than her. On the third day, she went to work 40 minutes earlier. This time she finally grabbed the mop. Since then she has been insisting as early as 5 minutes before the master. This positive working attitude was praised by colleagues and quickly recognized by the leaders. After half a year of custodian work in the warehouse, Wang Chen was selected to a management department at the company headquarters.

If you want to stand out, it should be "5 minutes earlier than others."

When Li Ka-shing was 14 years old, he worked as a buddy in a tea house in Hong Kong. The folks of the tea house must arrive at the tea house at 5 am every day. In order to get up early, Li Ka-shing dialed the alarm clock 10 points, and the first one was rushed to the tea house every day.

After becoming the richest man in Hong Kong, his watch is still ten minutes faster than others. It is Li Ka-shing's habit of keeping up ten minutes faster than others. It is Li Ka-shing's diligent action for ten minutes. It is because of his diligence that he has his fruitful results.

Dialing the watch for 5 minutes is an effective way to deal with the problem of "draging" in people's hearts. In life and work, we often have to meet people or participate in various gatherings. punctuality represents a person's cultivation, whether it is credible, whether it has a sense of responsibility, and whether it is respectful to others. And almost everyone's heart will have more or less "drag" problems, people often set a time for themselves to go out in their hearts, and will not leave if they do not set the time. Mom set the time for herself to go out at 7:10 every morning. I have to grind it almost every day. Even if there is sometimes 6:50, there is nothing to do, but I still have to wait until 7:10, you are Isn't there something wrong with this? If the time you set just allows you to arrive on time, you may be late, affecting your credibility and affecting your study and work, and even affecting your life. One way to solve this problem is to "put the table up for 5 minutes" and let the "wrong time" tell you the correct message: "Hurry up, it's too late."

Dear daughter, you might say, "The function of the watch is accurate. Why should you dial 5 minutes?"

I used to think so.

When several colleagues often panted and ran upstairs and were late, I told them to dial the watch for 5 minutes. From then on, I couldn't see them being late. I found that "putting the watch for 5 minutes" is really A good way.

Of course, when you get off work, you can't "early back" according to the time you dialed.

Dear daughter, dialing the watch for 5 minutes is a very small thing, but it reflects a person’s positive attitude towards life, love for work, respect for the system and strict requirements for himself. And a rigorous work attitude.

What I have to say is that in fact, "putting the table up for 5 minutes" is just a description, a statement that strictly demands oneself, and the most important thing is his attitude towards work and learning. Some people come to work and go to school very early, even if they don't dial the table quickly.

Put the watch for 5 minutes, and face the challenge so that we can be more prepared to become the most proactive person and work hard for our own ideals!

Love your mom
