Hello, everyone.
This is Enta.
I've managed to fix the problem with the drilling machine from the other day, lol.
I was relieved to find out it was just the fuel filter!
I was thinking about other possibilities as well, so I was like, “Could the worst-case scenario be having to replace the machine!?”
Or take the unit back for maintenance and then return it to the site.
We had been telling the various companies involved in the main contract that we might have to stop by the end of the year at the latest, but we’ve retracted that statement and are resuming work.
But that's beside the point.
This time of year gets so busy it feels like it's going to break you, doesn't it?
And sometimes people actually do break them, which can lead to some pretty crazy situations, right?
I'm not the type to get discouraged, lol.
It's the kind of thing where you just get fed up and call it quits.
When I asked myself, “Why do I do that?”"I'm not saying failure is a bad thing."
I realized that.
I don't think to myself, "This is a piece of cake! There's no way I'll fail."
"It's me, you know!? Failure is part of the deal, right?"That's what I'm thinking.
A while back, I even asked my boss, “There’s a good chance I’ll mess this up, but is it okay if I do it?” lol
Actually, even if I’m confident, I still plant the seeds of failure somewhere inside myself.
That way, when I fail, I can just admit, “Yeah, I messed up!” (As expected.)
You might think that's just an excuse, but that'sThe Secret to Staying StrongThat's it.
And I think these are factors that allow us to be forgiving toward our subordinates and employees, and also factors that help them grow.
People who can't accept that will eventually snap.
I end up taking on the responsibility.
No matter what my boss says about the failure,
The person who is most aware of it and knows it best is the one who failed.That's it.
If you just go on and on about it without listening to the other person, you'll just end up making them hate you, won't you?
If supervisors are willing to accept mistakes with an open mind, they can continue to have high expectations for the person who made the mistake.
You know how there are always those bosses or senior colleagues who act all high and mighty, especially right after you’ve messed up?
People who say things like that tend to hide their own failures.
They hide their own mistakes but go on and on about other people’s mistakes, adding their own embellishments. You know the type, right? lol
What we can learn from people like this isDon't hide your mistakes!That's the point.
By hiding things, you just end up getting deeper and deeper into trouble.
So I’ll just come clean about all my mistakes. I’ll say it whether it’s the general contractor or my boss.
And,Apologize sincerely!
By talking about my mistakes, the next time something similar happens,
Since you can always keep past failures in mind as a point of reference,
The accuracy of the current success rate will improve dramaticallyThat's right.
As I’ve written before, simply being mindful of your surroundings can completely transform the environment you’re in.
Being mindful of past failures can help increase your success rate now.
If you keep repeating things like that over and over, you’ll develop a resilient spirit, and
I am able to be tolerant of mistakes made by subordinates and others.
And you won't get as frustrated.
After all, it’s the boss’s responsibility when a subordinate fails.
What do you value most?
It's me!
The most important thing in the world is yourself!
Please take care of yourself.
By doing that, you'll find that you're protecting others!
First, myself!
And someone other than myself.
Let's try to be more forgiving!
And with that in mind, let’s go about our work with confidence!
See you later.
P.S. It looks like there will be one open position in the Slope Maintenance Crew starting next fiscal year!
We have all the necessary machinery, so we can handle everything from cost estimation to design changes and more.
Please be sure to invite me.
The anchor team is now full! Thank you very much. ^^
