I go out to exercise every morning. At first I just exercise by myself. Later I find out that a neighbor is in the walking team, so I join him together. The old team members all have team uniforms and wear the same clothes every day. I didn't like the color of the clothes, so I delayed buying team uniforms.
Yesterday the captain asked me on WeChat: "My teammates who joined me as companions want to buy team uniforms. Do you want to send me a set?" I said, "Okay." Now that I have decided Join this walking team, don’t care if you like it or not, just buy a set. Wearing uniform clothes will have a better overall effect. In this way, I bought a team uniform that I didn't like.
The enthusiastic captain made a special trip yesterday to help us get the team uniforms. Unexpectedly, I took it back this morning and tried it out. Since I like to wear looser styles, the number of the team uniform is one size smaller. I need to trouble the captain to change it tomorrow.
Since the walking team is led by a male, he probably doesn’t know much about the model of clothes and the numbers that the team members should wear. I specifically told him yesterday: "Get me the one size larger, but it turned out to be the size smaller."
If it were me, I would have asked for a height and weight estimate from the team uniform seller in advance. The wear number list can recommend suitable numbers to the players when they buy team uniforms. This will save you two trips at least, right? Everything needs to be done carefully, and don’t waste time on things that can be solved at once.
Now I can see what others have done inappropriately. When I reflect on myself and return to myself, I remind myself that I must be careful, careful, and more careful when doing things!
Let’s talk about another episode that happened in the walking team these two mornings. When I was leaving yesterday morning, suddenly the police from the police station came to the scene to find our captain and said: "The neighbors complained that our music was too loud and affected their morning rest. Let us lower the sound." The captain asked the teammate in charge of music to I turned the volume down a bit, but the team members behind me really couldn't hear the sound. The solution this morning was to use two small speakers that I carried with me. The sound was really not loud. Unexpectedly, the neighbor who complained came to the door and started a quarrel with our team leader. When the captain saw that the entire team had stopped, he asked us to continue walking, and then he and the complaining neighbor went to the side to negotiate.
Since our speakers are really not very loud, we split the speakers into two for this complaint. One at the front of the team and one at the back, so that the sound can be lowered. Unexpectedly, the neighbors still didn't understand. Under this situation, my teammates were also very emotional. As we continued walking, complaints came one after another: "Who is this? Why is he the only one complaining? Our music volume is already very low. Does he have ears? Why don't others complain? Why don't you get up at 6:00? Can you do some work at home if you don't want to go out to exercise?
What I am thinking is, if I were the uncle who complained, what should I do? If you can't change external forces, then change yourself! Otherwise, wouldn’t you be at odds with yourself? Isn’t there a saying that those who change others are mentally ill, but those who change themselves are the most powerful people?
If you go to bed late because of work and need to rest in the morning, then let yourself wear earplugs. If it is because you just get up late habitually, then take this opportunity to get rid of this bad habit. The uncle who made the complaint must be about 60 years old and has quite a temper. In fact, he can also join our walking team. This is great. He can exercise and get up early, and it is free. Alarm clock to help you not be late. Sometimes people need to adjust their thoughts in time, then they can change their practices and thus change their lives.
I say this not because I don’t disturb myself and can stand and talk without pain in my back. The premise for me to say this is that our speakers are really not loud.
People still need to learn to understand each other in both directions, right?
