If you’ve been hired or gotten to be the owner of a business，you must have something to offer the team.Focus on the strengths you possess，rather than the skills or knowledge you lack.Andy Johns，an early Facebook employee，offers a greater metaphor for this bit of advice: “If a field goal kicker showed up to practice with a new football team and thought ‘All of these guys are bigger and more athletic than me！’and tried to outperform the wide receivers and running backs，they would fail miserably.But they don’t.They focus on their strengths and they focus on being the best field goal kicker in the game.Within that more tightly defined role，they aim to perform.”

When surrounded by smart people，your first impulse may be to hide your ignorance，but that’s the wrong way to go，according to Doug Edwards，Google’s first director of marketing.If you don’t ask questions，you’ll never learn.Communication is key.“It’s much better to appear uninformed than to give the impression you know something you don’t，which can come back to haunt you.I used to ask the engineers to explain things to me ‘in the words that I can understand，’” he said.

Sure，you were dealt whatever genetic hand you have when it comes to innate intellectual horsepower，but there is still one giant factor 100% under your own control.As Gwynne Shotwell reminded the audience recently: “You can’t control whether you’re the smartest person in the room，but you can certainly control whether you’re the most prepared.”“You can’t get smarter but you can always work harder than someone else，” he said，“so the adjustment is to work extremely hard at your craft until you feel like you fit in.”

This one may be simple，but it was one of the most common bits of advice.Charles Martin，for example，recalls that “a few years ago，I had a chance to work with an expert in a very large and successful fund.The first thing I did was read the thesis of the managing director，so I could get ‘into his head’ and learn how he thinks.This made it much easier to work with him as a colleague.” Mark Simchock advised to “educate yourself.” Also，aim for diversity in what you pick up.You probably aren’t going to out－expert the experts，but you could contribute that key piece of knowledge by educating yourself.“I tried to absorb all the

information I could from outside so that occasionally I could contribute a perspective that was different，” said Mark.

Today, more people are playing an active part in various body－building activities, and young people make up a large proportion. People of different ages choose different places for exercise.

There are some reasons contributing to this phenomenon. First of all, our government attaches great importance to body－building activities and encourages people to get involved. It has lunched many campaigns, aimed at promoting body building all over the country. Therefore, more and more people are willingly participating in taking exercise. In addition, the value in it is more widely recognized.

This phenomenon set me thinking deeply. At the social level, with more and more people doing exercise, public health can be greatly improved, which will surely benefit the whole country. On a personal level, a healthy body is a powerful guarantee to improve the quality of life. Exercise can surely help you look good, feel good and keep fit.
