仕事に自信ない・不安に感じる人が知るべき2種類の自信

恋愛・コミュニケーション

どうも、小野田です。

あなたは仕事をしていて、こんな風に感じたことありませんか?

・仕事ができなくて自信ないし辞めたい
・このまま働き続けていいのか不安
・「辞める」の言葉が定期的に頭をよぎる
・怒られてばかりで自信喪失してる
・こんな状態で結婚できるのかどうか怖い
・現状を変えるには転職するしか方法はないのかな?

むかーし昔、少しだけ広告代理店で働いてたときも、
同僚の鈴木さん(仮名・30代前半)がこう漏らしてました・・・
 

「仕事できなくて自信ない。。」

今までとまったく違う建設業界から転職してきて、
まったく知識ない状態でのスタートだったらしい。

ゴリゴリにパソコン使うしWeb関係の話の多い仕事なのに、
パソコン操作もおぼつかない状態でした。

そんなわけで社長に怒られることも多く、
自信をなくしてたんですね。

一緒にご飯食べに行ったときは、
口癖のように「俺なんて・・・」と言ってました。
 

で、鈴木さん(仮名)が辞めるとき、
その最後の挨拶でも「自分は仕事できなくて。。」みたいな話をしたんですよ。

それを聞いた後、
いてもたってもいられず
ずっと言えずにいた愛の告白をしました。

・・・それはさすがにおかしい。笑
 

今まで恥ずかしくて言えなかったけど、
実は内心で思ってたことを伝えたんです。
 

==================
「鈴木さんはいつもそうやって自分を卑下して僕のことを褒めてくれたけど、違うんですよ!

鈴木さんには鈴木さんの良さがあって、
僕に無いものたくさん持ってるな〜って、いつも思ってました。

だからそんなに自分を卑下しないで、
鈴木さんらしく頑張っていってください!」
==================

鈴木さんは、すごく面白くていつも笑わせてくれた。

「営業の練習しよう!」って2人でやったときも、
鈴木さんの顔見るだけで爆笑して練習にならなかった。
(それは失礼。笑)

鈴木さんがいてくれたおかげで、
「今日は楽しいな」って思える日があったのは間違いないんですよ。

鈴木さんがいたから、
事務所内の空気が明るくなってました。

みんな爆笑してたもん。
 

つまり・・・

これ重要ポイントよ!
(唐突なオネエ感)
 

鈴木さんは、
ただ存在してるだけで貢献してた。

ここで2種類の自信について触れましょう。
 

2種類の自信とは?

・Doing(やったこと)の自信
・Being(存在)の自信

自信には、この2種類があるんです。
 

Doingの自信は、仕事だったら
「営業で売りまくれた!」とか
「クレーム処理が完璧だった!」とか
「事務仕事早く終わらせた!」という結果から生まれる自信のこと。

一般的には、こっちの方が重視されがちです。
貢献度が分かりやすいからね。
 

Doingの自信はみんな知ってるから、
僕らが知るべきはBeingの自信です。

これがまさに鈴木さんのこと。
(本人は自覚してなかったけど)

ただ存在してるだけで貢献してる!という状態。
 

鈴木さんの場合は「笑わせてくれる」だったけど、
他にも存在による貢献はあります。

たとえば、、、

・その人がいると癒される
・その人がいるとヤル気出る
・その人がいると前向きになれる
・その人がいると胸が熱くなる
・その人がいるとアイディアが閃く

こういうのって本人は自覚してないことが多いけど、
ちゃんと貢献してるんですよね。

ただ、その貢献度は分かりにくいから評価されにくい。

だから、本人は「自分なんて、、、」と自信なくすことが多いんです。
 

ですが、「ただ存在してるだけの貢献」もあるんだよ。

そういうカタチの貢献もあるんだよ。

これに気付けるかどうか。
Beingの自信を持てるかどうか。
 

Doingばかりに注目してませんか?
 

では、ありがとうございました。

  1. Wyattnoubs より:

    Big thanks to whoever wrote this, you saved me a lot of time hunting for the same info on other sites, and a stop at pebblelemon only added more useful detail without going off topic, that kind of focus is honestly hard to come across these days when most posts wander everywhere.

  2. Lowellesona より:

    Reading this gave me a small mental break from the heavier reading I had been doing, and a stop at voguestraw extended that lighter feel, content that provides relief without becoming trivial is harder to produce than people realise and this site has clearly figured out how to be light without being shallow at all.

  3. JesusIneRn より:

    Found this useful, the points line up well with what I have been thinking about lately, and a stop at lemonode added some angles I had not considered yet, definitely walking away with more than I came for which is the best outcome from time spent reading online for any kind of topic.

  4. Ralphlot より:

    A thoughtful piece that did not strain to be thoughtful, and a look at surgetarmac continued that effortless quality, when thinking shows up in writing without the writer drawing attention to it you know you are reading something genuinely considered rather than something performing the appearance of consideration which is also common online.

  5. MorrisPieks より:

    Great work on keeping things readable, the post never drags or repeats itself which I really appreciate, and a stop at brofix added a bit more context that fit naturally with what was already said here, no need to read everything twice to get the point being made today.

  6. threeoaktreasures より:

    Reading this confirmed that my time researching the topic in other places had not been wasted, and a stop at threeoaktreasures extended the confirmation, when independent sources agree that is a useful signal and this site is one of the more reliable sources I have found for cross checking what I read elsewhere on similar subjects.

  7. KerryNag より:

    Really grateful for content like this, it does not waste my time and it does not insult my intelligence either, and a quick look at treblevinca was the same, balanced respectful writing that makes a person feel welcome rather than rushed through pages of forced engagement just to keep clicking around.

  8. Noelpaida より:

    Easy to recommend without reservations, the site delivers on every promise it implicitly makes, and a look at storkumber kept that same standard going, the kind of consistency that earns trust over time rather than chasing it through aggressive marketing is what I see here and it is appreciated greatly by this particular reader today.

  9. KrisHob より:

    Now appreciating that the post did not require external context to follow, and a look at exploreinnovativeconcepts maintained the same self contained quality, content that respects new visitors by being readable without prerequisites is content with broader accessibility and this site has clearly invested in keeping each piece reader friendly for fresh arrivals.

  10. Javonverge より:

    A piece that reads as if the writer trusted readers to fill in obvious gaps, and a look at imobush continued that respectful approach, content that does not over explain what the reader can infer is content that respects intelligence and this site has clearly chosen to write to capable readers rather than to the lowest common denominator.

  11. Evanscunc より:

    Solid information that lines up with what I have been hearing from other reliable sources, and after my visit to tidalurchin I was even more certain of that, this site checks out which is something I value highly when so many places online play loose with the facts to chase a quick click.

  13. Stewartsed より:

    Yesterday I was complaining about the state of online writing and today this site has temporarily fixed that complaint, and a look at ibeburn extended that mood reversal, the short term mood improvement that comes from finding good content is real and this site has produced that improvement for me at a useful moment.

  15. Rexlot より:

    Honestly impressed by how much useful content sits in such a small post, and a stop at syncbyte confirmed the rest of the site packs a similar punch, density without confusion is a hard balance to strike and this site has clearly cracked the code on it across many different topic areas covered.

  16. HoseaAlOrs より:

    Great work on keeping things readable, the post never drags or repeats itself which I really appreciate, and a stop at sorreltavern added a bit more context that fit naturally with what was already said here, no need to read everything twice to get the point being made today.

  17. Coryvax より:

    Adding to the bookmarks now before I forget, that is how good this is, and a look at zulvexa confirmed the rest of the site is worth saving too, this is one of those rare finds that justifies the time spent searching the web for once which is a relief in the current environment.

  18. Louisjaste より:

    Big thanks to whoever wrote this, you saved me a lot of time hunting for the same info on other sites, and a stop at tacticstaff only added more useful detail without going off topic, that kind of focus is honestly hard to come across these days when most posts wander everywhere.

  19. PierceREERA より:

    Took a few notes from this post, the points are easy to remember without needing to come back and check, and a look at siskavarsity added a couple more, the kind of place that sticks in the memory long after the browser tab has been closed for the day which says a lot really.

  20. CurtisStori より:

    Worth pointing out that the writing reads as confident without being defensive about it, and a look at fylbust extended that secure tone, content that does not pre emptively argue against imagined critics has a different quality from defensive writing and this site reads as written from a place of real ease.

  21. Jamarcuscup より:

    However casually I came to this site I have ended up reading carefully, and a look at gongjade continued earning that careful reading, the conversion from casual visitor to careful reader is something content earns rather than demands and this site has accomplished that conversion for me over the course of just a few pieces.

  22. DamienEnany より:

    This filled in a gap in my understanding that I had not even noticed was there, and a stop at pebblenovel did the same, the kind of post that gives you more than you expected when you first clicked through from somewhere else, a real find for anyone curious about the area covered here.

  23. Darrellcag より:

    Took the time to read every paragraph rather than skimming for the punchline, and a quick visit to seriftackle earned the same careful attention from me, that is the highest signal I can give about content quality because my default mode is rapid scanning rather than deliberate reading on most pages.

  24. JaxonShems より:

    Really appreciate this kind of writing, no shouting and no clickbait headlines just steady useful content, and a quick look at leveemotel kept that going, definitely a site I will be returning to whenever I need a sensible take on similar topics in the days ahead and also during slower work weeks.

  25. KileSef より:

    Reading this between meetings turned out to be the most useful thing I did all afternoon, and a stop at steamstraw kept that productivity feeling going, content can sometimes outperform actual work in terms of what gets accomplished mentally and this site managed that today which is genuinely a high bar to clear consistently.

  26. Kieranpreog より:

    Bookmarking this for later, the kind of resource I want to keep nearby, and a quick look at jalborn confirmed the rest of the site is worth the same treatment, definitely going into my reference folder for the next time the topic comes up at work or in conversation with someone who asks.

  27. Phillipmaync より:

    Left me wanting to read more rather than feeling burned out, that is a good sign, and a look at byncane confirmed there is plenty more here to explore, the kind of writing that builds appetite rather than killing it which is a rare quality on the modern open internet today across most categories of content.

  28. Malcolmemort より:

    Reading this gave me a small framework I expect to use going forward, and a stop at exploreyourpotential extended that framework, content that produces transferable mental models rather than just specific facts is content with multiplicative value and this site is providing those models at a rate that justifies extra attention from me regularly.

  29. Gradydiz より:

    Refreshing change from the usual sites covering this topic, no clickbait and no padding, and a stop at velourturban confirmed the difference, this place clearly has its own voice rather than copying the formulas everyone else uses to chase clicks online which is becoming increasingly rare these days across nearly every popular subject.

  30. DuncanDut より:

    Started smiling at one paragraph because the writing was just nice, and a look at halbrook produced a couple more such moments, prose that produces small spontaneous reactions in the reader is doing more than just transferring information and the writers here are clearly hitting that level fairly consistently throughout pieces.

  31. Bufordjew より:

    Will be back, that is the simplest way to say it, and a quick visit to hoxfix reinforced the decision, this site has earned a spot in my regular rotation alongside a few other reliable places I check when I want something genuinely informative without all the usual modern web noise getting in the way.

  32. JuddHanny より:

    Now considering the post as evidence that careful blog writing is still possible, and a look at mercymodel extended that evidence, the broader question of whether the modern web can sustain quality writing has obvious empirical answers in sites like this one and seeing them is reassuring even when they remain a minority overall today.

  33. KnoxNusty より:

    Skipped lunch to finish reading, which says something, and a stop at tritonsloop kept me at my desk longer than planned, when content beats the lunch impulse the writer has done something genuinely impressive in an attention environment full of immediately satisfying alternatives competing for the same finite block of reader time.

  34. CaseyDiaby より:

    Now recognising that this site has earned a place in the small group of resources I treat as authoritative, and a stop at inaarch confirmed that placement, the difference between resources I trust and resources I just consume is real and this site has clearly moved into the trusted category through consistent quality over time.

  35. Troysab より:

    Now adding the homepage to my regular check rotation rather than waiting for individual links to find me, and a stop at ibecalf confirmed the rotation upgrade, the move from passive discovery to active checking is a vote of confidence in a sites ongoing quality and this site has earned that active engagement clearly.

  36. FranklinGok より:

    Nice to see a post that does not try to overcomplicate the basics for the sake of looking smart, and once I looked at timberverge the same direct tone was there too, which honestly makes a difference when you are short on time and want answers without long pointless intros.

  37. Yorktob より:

    Bookmark moved to my permanent reference folder rather than the casual maybe later folder, and a look at suppletoast earned the same upgrade, the distinction between casual interest and lasting reference is something I track carefully and very few sites cross that threshold but this one did so without much effort apparently.

  38. AllenBug より:

    Reading this in pieces during a long afternoon and finding it consistently rewarding, and a stop at swamptweed fit naturally into the same fragmented reading pattern, sites whose posts can be read in segments without losing the thread are well suited to how I actually read these days and this one is built well.

  39. Reginaldsop より:

    Thank you for not assuming the reader already knows everything, the explanations meet me where I am, and a look at stereotarot did the same, that consideration is what makes a site feel welcoming rather than gatekeepy which is sadly the default mood across the modern web today for most subjects covered.

  40. TristanBex より:

    Liked the way the post balanced confidence and humility, and a stop at fylcalm maintained the same balance, knowing when to assert and when to acknowledge uncertainty is a sign of mature thinking and the writers here have clearly developed that calibration through what I assume is years of careful work on their craft.

  41. RobinCof より:

    Bookmark earned, share earned, return visit earned, all from one reading session, and a look at vistastencil did the same, the trifecta of bookmark and share and return is rare in a single visit and represents the highest level of engagement I tend to offer any piece of online content these days here.

  42. Frednak より:

    Felt the writer was speaking my language without trying to imitate it, and a look at zunkavi continued that natural fit, when a writers default voice happens to match what you find easy to read the experience feels frictionless and that is something I notice and remember about specific sites going forward.

  43. Eganrix より:

    The whole experience of reading this was pleasant from start to finish, no pop ups and no annoying interruptions, and a look at vocabtoffee continued that clean experience, technical choices about page design matter for the reader and this site clearly cares about the small details that add up to comfort across multiple visits.

  44. Davonbah より:

    Generally I do not leave comments but this post merits a small note, and a stop at pebbleoboe extended that comment worthy quality, the urge to actively contribute to a sites community rather than passively consume from it is something specific content provokes and this site has provoked that engagement urge from me today.

  45. Nashfrern より:

    Appreciated the way each section connected smoothly to the next without abrupt jumps, and a stop at tunicvicar kept that flow going nicely, transitions are something most blog writers ignore but the difference is huge for the reader who is trying to follow a sustained line of thought today across many different topics.

  46. ReeseRaw より:

    Now adjusting my expectations upward for the topic based on this post, and a stop at sloopvault continued that bar raising effect, content that resets what I think is possible on a subject is doing real work in shaping my standards and this site is providing those bar raising experiences at a notable rate during sessions.

  47. Asherhed より:

    Found this through a friend who recommended it and now I see why, and a look at liegelane only strengthened that recommendation in my own mind, word of mouth still works for content that actually delivers and this site is clearly earning recommendations the old fashioned way through quality rather than marketing.

  48. Calebknorm より:

    Reading this between meetings turned out to be the most useful thing I did all afternoon, and a stop at gongketo kept that productivity feeling going, content can sometimes outperform actual work in terms of what gets accomplished mentally and this site managed that today which is genuinely a high bar to clear consistently.

  49. RossMic より:

    Felt no urge to argue with the conclusions even though I started the post slightly skeptical, and a look at buildsomethinglasting maintained that pattern, writing that earns agreement through clarity of argument rather than rhetorical pressure is the kind I find most persuasive and the kind I want to read more of these days.

  50. DamianDinge より:

    Even on a quick first read the substance of the post comes through, and a look at cadbrisk reinforced that immediate quality, content that does not require a slow careful read to demonstrate value but rewards one anyway is content with real depth and this site has produced work of that demanding depth class.
