Word introduction

Meaning of words

It refers to being timid, afraid that things will fall on you, afraid of causing trouble or bad things to bear by yourself. In fact, timidity should be divided into two parts: "timidity" and "timidity". Timidity refers to the performance of some people who don't want to rush forward to solve these things after meeting things. Timidity means that some people don't want to make trouble, so they won't rush forward when meeting things, but they are not timid. However, "timidity" is sometimes used as a compliment to describe a person who is good at doing things. when a person is faced with the right things and needs to face and deal with them immediately, it is definitely not good to be timid. For example, when we go to a speech, if we are faced with thousands of audiences and do not go on stage because of timidity, there is no doubt that we will lose the audience and the opportunity to show ourselves; when we are faced with the wrong temptation, such as taking drugs, such timidity is a good performance of refusing drugs.

Relevant information

There are many reasons for timidity. among them, the way of parents' education has a certain impact: for example, some children are over protected by their parents when they are young, which makes them psychologically dependent and leads to the lack of independence when they grow up. Another situation is that children are severely punished by their parents when they try to do something, which leaves a psychological shadow. In addition, some young people can't make a correct judgment about what they are going to do because of their inexperience and shallow experience. They often exaggerate the difficulties and lose confidence and give up. the way to solve problems is always to face them, not to run away from them. First of all, don't feel inferior. It's necessary to imagine that you can persuade others to do something and begin to express your opinions in front of others. However, as long as you think what you say is reasonable, you believe that others will also be infected. It's only a matter of time. There must be a process for you to change, from being ridiculed to being used to, and then to being successfully convinced. We should have the spirit of not afraid of attack, even if others laugh, we should go forward bravely to express what we want to say. in the modern workplace, due to the fierce competition, people are in a state of fast rhythm, unidirectional thinking, linear behavior and boring means for a long time. They often rush to make decisions and draw conclusions in order to seize the fleeting opportunities, which may lead to undesirable and wrong consequences. Therefore, to a certain extent, it is an ideal way to solve the problem to allow "timidity", to anticipate everything first, to plan and then to move.
