In the workplace, we need to maintain moderate edges and corners
Enterprises are actually formed by numerous employees. The edges and corners of every employee, whether they are advantages or disadvantages in the eyes of others, are unique personality characteristics. However, if everyone gives up himself and smoothes the edges, it will lose the vitality of the enterprise. Therefore, in the workplace, we need to maintain moderate edges and corners.

Keeping edges and corners is keeping principles
Many people have been smoothed by the workplace. One of their performances is that they can't stick to principles and understand reasonable rejection. For example, I would like to refuse others very much, but every time when others ask, I will still accept it out of embarrassment, can't bear to refuse, and is in the way of affection, which leads me to do a lot of things that are not within the scope of work. This is the "old man" in the workplace.
I don't know if you have found such a phenomenon. These old people who don't know how to refuse always help others in the workplace and always respond to their demands. Because they are afraid of not helping and refusing others, they will lose their goodwill and even destroy the relationship between the two parties. But in fact, in the workplace, no one will appreciate your kindness, they will only make progress. Once you have done this, you will basically do it in the future, and you will make more mistakes. Once you don't help one day, others will think you are bad, as if you owe someone else. In the end, it's hard to please.
If this happens all the time, it is better to learn to reject the unreasonable demands of others and establish our own principles. When you have a bottom line, you will establish your own principles and reject work that violates your own principles. Work that does not involve principles can be selectively accepted.
In the workplace, we advocate to maintain the edges and corners, but at the same time, we should also know how to hold the right balance. It is inappropriate to let your rough edges and corners hurt others and yourself even if you have suffered losses because of a certain character. At this time, we need to make some changes, but this change should not be to smooth edges and corners, but to be refined. Only after careful carving can the jade bloom. Can you say that the exquisite jade has no edges and corners? no.
Therefore, in the face of difficulties, conflicts and contradictions, we can accept the polishing of reality. Moderate polishing will enable us to better grasp the rules of getting along with others, but it is not necessary to blindly polish our own edges and corners. We do not survive in the workplace to cater to others, and the workplace life is not entirely to give up personality to achieve success.
The shape with edges and corners will gradually become round after the edges and corners are removed, which means that once people lose the edges and corners, they tend to be mediocre, and it is difficult to make their own achievements in the workplace under mediocrity. Therefore, only by maintaining personality and having moderate "edges and corners" can we form our own unique professional personality charm.
