昨天去Lakewood Church听了Joel Osteen 的布道, titled "Develop a Pearl in You.
" I enjoy Joel's preaching simply because it is closely related to one's
real life. In addition, he is very humourous and handsome.
Outline: when a grain gets into an oyster, the oyster find it irritating.
Over the time, the grain becomes a pearl. Without the grain and without the
irritation, there will not be the beautiful pearl. Every irritation is a God
's given opportunity for us to surpass our irritation/difficulty to rise
above higher. We may have a boss or a co-worker that we dislike. Some people
choose to leave and work for another company. But the same thing happens
again. The key is not to escape but face the problem. If you cannot change
others, change yourself.
This is so true. When I entered my company two years ago, I had a tough boss
. Let's call her B. B was tough not because she worked me hard. I do not
mind working hard at all. She made life miserable for me by micro-managing
my job. She wanted things done her way and did not care whether my way is
more efficient or not. She liked to judge people behind their back. She is
control-freak and germ-freak. She always had a way to belittle me or make me
feel humiliated. All in all, I disliked her so much that I thought about
quitting my job. However, if I really quit my job, it would still bother me
since there will be a deep shadown left by her. I would never forget being
humilated by her. After a few weeks' struggle. I decided to swallow my pride
but NOT to quit my job. I started to change myself and my take on things.
On the other hand, I worked very hard for her and did everything she told me
to do, in her way. In the end, she had nothing but good things to say about
me. By this time, a year had past and I already gained respect and trust
from her peers and her bosses.
Don't forget I still dislike her but I cannot choose to escape. Time has
arrived for me to leave her behind and still working in the same company in
the same office. One day, after talking with C, who is a level higher than B
, about me working directly for C since I enjoy working for her and I can
bring a lot of value to her. C agreed. Then I had a peaceful talk with my
HR person that I wish I will work for and report to C. HR asked me whether
there is any problem with B. I said no problem, and I just felt that there
is a better match that C and I together can develop better client service
and it will better my career path. I did not talk bad things about B or the
real misery she brough to my work life (which also impacted my personal life
), nor did I talk to any third party about this change, including B.
A week later, B was notified and I can still remember she was totally taken
aback. She asked me to go to her office and mumbled something like "sorry.."
I did not care what she said. Giving her a big smile, I said peacefully: "I
do not remember anything."
As of today, we are still working togher and saying "Hi" and "Bye," just
like nothing ever happened. We will never be friends, but I do not dislike
her any more. I acknoledge her existence but I alreay surpass the irritation
she brough to me. We are simply different: different in cultural background
, different in skin color and most of all, different in how to manage staff.
Don't you see a pearl developed in me?
