道德勇氣
楊惟雯
想想看，歷史上有哪一個美國領導人曾經被人家罵作“偽君子”、“大騙子”、“只比謀殺犯好一點點”呢？
有一次，報紙上有一幅漫畫，畫著他站在斷頭臺上，那把大刀正準備把他的頭砍下來。
有一次，在他騎馬從街上走過的時候，一大群人圍著他又叫又罵。
他是誰呢？
不錯，他就是美國的國父—-喬治.華盛頓。
當然，這不是說，如果有一天你要是被人家踢了，或者是被別人惡意批評的話，您就可以當美國的國父。
一、《道德的勇氣》
作家羅家倫曾在其《道德的勇氣》書中舉了一個例子—-
羅家倫寫他在費城觀看歷史名劇《林肯》，久久不能入睡。
他看到，林肯被推舉為共和黨總統候選人，黨代表團來訪，告訴他肯定會當選，因為民主黨內部分裂。
林肯聽了之後，沉思良久，方才答應。
代表團走了之後，林肯凝視壁上美國地圖許久，然後獨自跪在地圖前祈禱。
這裡，呈現了一個偉大領袖的人格—-肩負責任的道德勇氣。
二、做個正直、不鄉愿的人
在職場工作，也是需要具備道德勇氣的，否則，往往明知是不對的事情，往往會因為鄉愿妥協，而姑息養奸。
例如，有位大家都覺得非常不適合擔任主管的同仁，有一天在經營會議裡，CEO覺得這個人感覺很不錯，就詢問當場所有主管的意見，有些人贊同，也有人內心持反對意見，卻由於不想得罪人、做壞人，用「尊重大家的意見」來表達自己的看法。
職場上我們也常常面臨到很多「明知不對」的事情，可是在當下因為內心欠缺德勇氣去提醒與告知，讓錯的事或人積非成是，事情發展的結果可能對企業文化的傷害很大，所以，由時候必要的「道德的勇氣」在關鍵時後還要被發揮出來，這才能對得起自己的良心與企業。
事實上，如果一件不對的事，但是因為自己沒有道德勇氣提醒老闆，不敢提出諫言，這就是失職，也對不起自己的良心；當然，除了具備「道德的勇氣」外，也要學習與老闆的溝通技巧。
三、破例一次是沈淪的起點
在1995年，年僅26歲的霸菱銀行新加坡部門首席交易員李森（Nick Leeson），因為投機交易，致使這家有200多年基業的英國投資銀行出現13億美元虧損。東窗事發之後，霸菱銀行就此倒閉。
李森事後談到自己說，他一開始只是誤判市場行情，但他不願認賠出場，又接連賭了好幾把，沒想到，每次都押錯籌碼。於是他偽造帳冊，誤導稽核人員，企圖瞞天過海，才會踏上這條毀滅之路。
這個事件的起點只是一個交易員犯了一個錯，不想讓上司知道，沒想到竟使一家有233年歷史的銀行倒閉。案發後，李森逃往歐洲，最後在德國被捕。李森最後因詐欺被判刑，被判在新加坡監獄服刑六年半，妻子也跟他離婚了。
在李森最初做決定時，完全想不到自己會一手促成這麼大的災難。
因為很多人都相信自己真的只是一次妥協，下不為例。這條不歸路的起點總是一個非常小的決定。
有時候，很多人不能了解無法堅持原則—「破例一次」可能必須付出的代價有多大？
當你放棄自己的原則，破了一例，以後，你就會覺得這樣其實也沒什麼，而讓你一再地破例。你只要妥協一次，暫時放下自己的原則，往往就無法回頭。只有等你走到盡頭，你才會後悔。
這就是我學到的一課：百分之百堅守原則，要比百分之九十八來得容易。如果你意識到第一步就有問題，有違原則，那就不要猶豫，請立刻回頭，轉身離去。
四、跋
“有肚量去容忍那些不能改變的事，有勇氣去改變那些可能改變的事，有智慧去區別上述兩類事。”這就是成功者要具備的三個素質。
當然，如果因為自己的承擔了「道德勇氣」，而讓你受到別人不公正的批評時，請記住：不要在意不公正的批評，自古英雄那個不是毀譽參半……，勇敢地去做對的事吧！

Today, I went to the beachfront with my children. I found a sea shell and gave it to my 4 year old daughter and said “You can hear the ocean if you put this to your ear.” She placed the shell to her ear and screamed. There was a hermit crab inside and it pinched her ear. She never wants to go back! LoL I know this is entirely off topic but I had to tell someone!

The next time I read a weblog, I hope that it doesnt disappoint me as much as this one. I imply, I know it was my option to read, however I really thought youd have something interesting to say. All I hear is a bunch of whining about something that you possibly can fix in case you werent too busy looking for attention.

Thanks for your publication on this blog. From my experience, there are occassions when softening upward a photograph might provide the professional photographer with a little an inspired flare. Often times however, that soft cloud isn’t what exactly you had at heart and can sometimes spoil an otherwise good picture, especially if you thinking about enlarging this.
An impressive share! I have just forwarded this onto a co-worker who had been doing a little homework on this. And he in fact ordered me dinner simply because I discovered it for him… lol. So let me reword this…. Thank YOU for the meal!! But yeah, thanks for spending time to discuss this subject here on your internet site.
This is a topic which is close to my heart… Thank you! Where are your contact details though?

The issue is something which not enough folks are speaking intelligently about. Now i’m very happy that I stumbled across this in my search for something regarding this.

Interesting blog post. A few things i would like to contribute is that pc memory should be purchased when your computer is unable to cope with anything you do along with it. One can set up two RAM boards containing 1GB each, for example, but not one of 1GB and one of 2GB. One should make sure the company’s documentation for the PC to ensure what type of ram is essential.
