The most rare quality of a person is two words: reliability.
A reliable person is true to his words and resolute in his actions. Everything is explained, everything is implemented, and there is always a response.
Don't worry if you entrust your affairs to such a person. It is comfortable to get along with such people. It's easy to work with people like this.
Reliability is a person's top talent. It allows you to be recognized by everyone, get more help, get more platforms and resources, and achieve a better self.
A reliable person will always keep his word.
Confucius said: "If a person has no faith, he does not know what he is capable of."
A person who does not keep his words and makes mistakes by breaking his words is destined not to win the trust of others.
Without trust, there is no cooperation. Without cooperation, there is no development.
People who do not keep their word will end up isolating themselves from others and society, turning themselves into an isolated island that no one cares about.
during the Warring States Period, Shang Yang was in the Qin State reform. In order to win the trust of the people, he erected a three-foot-long wooden stake at the south gate of the capital. He also issued a notice offering a reward of ten taels to anyone who could move the wooden pile to the north gate.
No one believes that one can get ten taels of gold so easily.
So Shang Yang increased the reward to fifty taels. Someone had the idea of trying to move the wooden piles to the north gate. Shang Yang really gave a reward of fifty taels.
Everyone was in an uproar. They believed that Shang Yang would do what he said and the relevant laws would be implemented in earnest. They all supported the reform and implemented the policy.
The sage said: A mortal standing between heaven and earth must be "sincere" when encountering problems. Only then will later generations believe that he is a human being, and then he will have the value of being a human being. How can those who practice deceit establish a reputation and build a career?
Keeping one's word is the most basic quality of a person's conduct in life, and it is also the main characteristic of being reliable.
Reliable people, people who can get things done without procrastination
, have strong execution ability.
They implement it in a timely manner and never delay, extend the date, or be lazy.
Unreliable people either cope or are perfunctory and cannot get things done on time and with good quality.
Cao Dewang, the glass king, once took a fancy to a young man.
This young man graduated from a prestigious school, invented several patents, and is proficient in multiple languages. More importantly, he has a quick mind and is very good at solving problems.
Cao Dewang transferred him into his office to assist him in handling company affairs.
Once, Cao Dewang wanted to negotiate an important cooperation project with an American supplier. He asked the young man to prepare materials, which must be detailed and detailed.
The young man followed the order and left. But after a week, there was no response. Another half month passed, and the negotiation was about to begin, but the young man still had no explanation. It wasn't until Cao Dewang urged the young man to finish the materials, but the quality was not satisfactory.
Afterwards, Cao Dewang lamented: No matter how talented people are, they are just flashy bubbles. Only reliability is a person's primary productivity.
A reliable person is always responsive, everything is in place, and everything is explained. They have strong execution ability and efficient feedback, and will not delay or disappoint people.
A reliable person who follows principles
principles is a person’s firewall.
If you don't follow principles, or make deals based on principles, you are doomed to play with fire and burn yourself, and will not end well. Because if the firewall collapses, disaster will ensue.
Reliable people stick to their principles and will not cross the bottom line.
Song Dynasty Minister Chen Zhizhong was upright and principled. Once, the son-in-law came to visit, hoping to use Chen Zhizhong's power and influence to seek the position of county magistrate.
This phenomenon of family clinging became a common trend at that time, and no one pursued it.
But Chen Zhizhong said: No matter how big or small the official position is, it is a famous weapon of the imperial court. All arrangements have legal systems. Besides, I never do anything that goes against my principles.
No matter how his daughter and son-in-law begged for mercy, Chen Zhizhong refused.
Later, Chen Zhizhong became prime minister. Someone said to the emperor: Chen Zhizhong has been in office for many years, his political performance is mediocre, he has made no achievements, and he is really unworthy of being appointed prime minister.
The emperor said: Although Chen Zhizhong has nothing extraordinary, he follows principles in everything and keeps the bottom line. The rules of the government and the public are solemn and the system is strict. This is a great contribution.
The ancients said: "Greed is like fire. If it is not contained, it will start a prairie fire. Desire is like water, if it is not contained, it will surge into the sky."
Only by using principles to curb your greed and desires can you do your best and not get lost in the swamp of human nature.
A reliable person, principled and determined. Being able to withstand temptation and maintain your integrity makes people feel at ease.
Conclusion
- writers said: "No matter how highly educated you are, or you are so talented that everyone is too ashamed to open their eyes, but what can make people respect and admire you is always your reliable professionalism."
Reliable people give people a sense of security, practicality, and joy.
The capital that can keep a person standing is not IQ or EQ, but reliable quality.
Because a reliable person can help others, and others are willing to help him.
