Étude de l'expression « manquer de » avec l'exemple de la chanson « Chère amie (toutes mes excuses) » de Marc Lavoine

Paroles de la chanson

Je pense à vous souvent
Je continue quand même
D'aimer les bateaux blancs
Que le désir entraîne


Je manque de vous souvent
Mais je m'en vais quand même
Laisser voler le vent
Qui souffle sur la peine


Chère amie, je vous envoie ces quelques mots
Pour vous dire qu'il ne fait pas beau
Et que j'ai mal, seul, depuis que je vous ai perdu
Je vous écris ces quelques fleurs
Avec mon cœur à l'intérieur
Je vous fais toutes mes excuses


Je rêve à vous souvent
Je me souviens de tout
Je me réveille à temps
Mais je vous vois partout


Je vous attends souvent
J'invente un rendez-vous
Vous n'avez plus le temps
Plus une minute à vous


Chère amie, je vous envoie ces quelques mots
Pour vous dire qu'il ne fait pas beau
Et que j'ai mal, seul, depuis que je vous ai perdue
Je vous écris ces quelques fleurs
Avec mon cœur à l'intérieur
Je vous fais toutes mes excuses

So you crave the challenge and impact of a leadership position?

Here's your roadmap:

1. Self-Discovery: Before diving in, take stock. What kind of leader are you? What industry ignites your passion? Analyze your strengths and target roles that leverage them. Online leadership quizzes and career assessments can be helpful tools.

2. Network Like a Pro: Leadership roles often come through connections.  Beef up your online presence (LinkedIn) and attend industry events.  Build genuine relationships with leaders you admire. Don't underestimate the power of informational interviews – pick the brains of successful leaders without asking for a job directly.

3. Craft a Compelling Narrative:  Your resume and cover letter are your story. Showcase leadership experiences, quantifying achievements with data (increased sales by X%, improved team efficiency by Y%). Tailor your resume to each position, highlighting skills relevant to the specific role.

4. Go Beyond the Job Board: Executive-level roles often fly under the radar.  Explore executive search firms specializing in your industry.  These firms connect qualified candidates with hidden opportunities. Network with recruiters who understand your leadership niche.

5. Sharpen Your Interview Edge:  Leadership interviews are about more than qualifications. They assess your strategic thinking, communication style, and ability to inspire.  Practice common interview questions and prepare insightful questions for the interviewer.  Remember, you're interviewing them too!

Bonus Tip: Many leadership roles require strong public speaking skills. Take a class or join a Toastmasters club to hone your ability to articulate your vision and captivate an audience.

Ready to embark on your leadership journey?  By meticulously crafting your personal brand, actively networking, and refining your interview skills, you'll be well on your way to securing the leadership role you deserve.

大家好，我是潘妮，欢迎来到古典智慧拾贝。在这里，我主要与大家分享中国古代的思想家的智慧。

今天的智慧来自《中庸》。这本书是一部儒家经典，主要讲学习的方式和做人的规范。几千年来，都是中国文化的经典。

喜怒哀乐之未发，谓之中，发而皆中节，谓之和。

也就是说，快乐、生气、伤心和喜悦这样的情感没有发生时，叫做“中”，在合适的情况下发生，叫做“和”。

“中”与“和”这两个字，在中国的语言文化中，既简单，又极其重要。

谢谢你的收听，我们下次见。

Hello everyone, my name is Penny, welcome to this channel. In this channel, I will share with you wisdoms of Chinese thinkers and philosophers from the past.

The wisdom of the day comes from “The Doctrine of the Mean”, which is a confucianist classic. It mainly talks about study methods and what does it mean of being a human. For thousands of years, it is revered as a classic of Chinese culture.

While there are no stirrings of pleasure, anger, sorrow or joy, the mind may be said to be in the state of Equilibrium.

When those feelings have been stirred, and they act in their due degree, there ensues what may be called the state of Harmony.

This two words (character 中 and 和 ) is so simple but so important in Chinese language and culture. 

Thanks for your listening, and I will see you next time.
