Break rules，road to success
Good afternoon, ladies and gentlemen. My name is Huangcan. The topic of my speech today is break rules, road to success. There is an old saying in China that nothing can be accomplished without norms. Is it right? No. But why? Here, I have a short story to share with you.
In a chemical lab, a tester was watering a glass water trough. After a while, water was almost full of the trough, and then the tester was ready to close the water faucet only to find it cannot be turned off. If water flew out of the trough to equipment on the workbench, chemical actions would occur to drugs in it thus causing explosion. Silence filled with every corners of the lab, and everyone in the lab sensed that the death was, step by step, closer to them. At that very moment, a female tester came with big stride to the trough and punched a hole at the bottom of the trough with a drug pestle. The water poured straight down. Well, everyone was rescued thanks for her.
The trough mentioned in the story is like our habit, or a kind of fixed mindset, for which we often turn a blind eye to many opportunities to success. However, the female tester just broke the rule by which others follow that only the tap is closed can they survive.
You know, the vast majority of things we are now involved in are of great relevance to our habit. Let me give you a very simple example, sleeping accounts for one third of our lifetime, which is our physical habit. Good habits, inevitably, push forward our progress, while bad ones hinder that. It is true not just of humanity, but also of a corporation and even a nation.
Companies always following the path of others instead of trying something creative will never survive in this increasingly competitive world. According to historic records, destruction of countries governed by jie and zhou, ancient emperors in china’s xia and shang dynasties was resulted from their violence and, more importantly, their unwillingness to break rules. Ok, another example. America suffered great losses in times of economic crisis due to the p resident’s persistence in the policy of economic noninterference.
All these appalling facts should bring us to the realization that it is exactly the norms and the fixed mindset serve as barriers to innovation, to progress and to success
Ladies and gentlemen, may I have your attention, please? Now I have a paper in my hand, a common white paper, right? But what I want to know is how to use it, a piece of scratch paper or waste paper or …….such a piece of paper? Actually, we are all like the paper, whether to be a piece of waste paper, or scratch paper, or to paint in it beautiful flowers is up to yourselves.。
