凤舞九天：中国唯一女皇武则天的权力之路
第一期：入宫·落发·命运的转折点

大家好！欢迎收听《凤舞九天》，我是子木。
在中国两千多年封建王朝史上，她是唯一一位——是的，唯一一位——被正史承认、登上皇帝宝座并建立自己王朝的女性。
她的名字，是武则天 (Wǔ Zétiān)。
但这条通往权力顶峰的路，起点却充满荆棘。公元624年，武则天出生。14岁，因美貌聪慧被选入唐太宗后宫，成为低等妃嫔——才人 (cáirén)。在雄主李世民身边，她默默汲取着权谋智慧。
然而，太宗驾崩，命运急转直下！按照残酷的宫廷规则，没有生育的她，必须削发为尼，在感业寺 (Gǎnyè Sì) 的青灯古佛前，耗尽余生...
难道，这个才华横溢的少女，就此被历史遗忘？她的野心与光芒，真能永远被寺庙的高墙封锁？
不！ 一道来自皇宫深处的目光，从未离开她... 谁在注视？这束目光，又将如何撕裂她黯淡的命运？
尼姑庵到皇后宝座！惊天逆转背后的男人是谁？我们下期再见

Halo semua! Apa kalian menikmati akhir minggu dengan baik?
Hari ini saya punya cerita menarik! Hari Jumat minggu lalu, waktu bertemu dengan salah satu murid saya, saya bilang “Di Indonesia, banyak polisi tidur di jalan loh”. Terus, murid saya bingung, “Polisi tidur di jalan? Untuk apa? Itu sangat bahaya kan!” Dia kaget banget! 
Ya, ya, “Polisi tidur” di Bahasa Inggris artinya “speed bump”, tapi saya pikir di Jepang tidak ada polisi tidur ya, jadi artinya polisi tidur adalah 車の速度を落とさせるための道路上の段差のこと。Menarik kan! 
Di Indonesia, biasanya di area yang ada sekolah atau di jalanan kecil, banyak polisi tidur. Kadang-kadang ada 4, 5 polisi tidur. Jadi, kalau kalian pergi ke Indonesia, jangan kaget melihat banyak polisi tidur di jalan. Hehe.. Ok, Sampai di sini ya. Sampai jumpa lagi!

Job insecurity is the feeling of uncertainty or anxiety about the continued existence of your employment. It's the opposite of job security, where there's confidence your position is stable. Job insecurity can be triggered by actual threats like company restructuring, economic downturns, or technological advancements, or it can be a perceived threat based on factors like short-term contracts, limited job control, or a lack of clear career advancement opportunities.

While the fear of job loss might be the main concern, job insecurity goes beyond that. It encompasses feelings of powerlessness, a lack of control over your future, and potential negative consequences like stress, anxiety, and decreased motivation. This can impact not just employee well-being but also company performance through lower productivity, increased absenteeism, and higher turnover.

Job insecurity is a complex issue with various causes and effects. Understanding it allows businesses to create a work environment that fosters security and reduces employee anxiety. This can involve providing clear communication about company goals and employee roles, offering opportunities for professional development, and promoting work-life balance initiatives. By addressing job insecurity, businesses can create a more stable and productive workforce. 

A business coach, like myself, can be a valuable asset in combating job insecurity within a company. They can work with managers to develop transparent communication strategies, ensuring employees understand their roles and the company's direction. Additionally, the coach can guide managers in crafting career development plans for employees, fostering a sense of growth and opportunity. By creating a culture that values continuous learning and clear communication, business coaches empower employees and mitigate the anxieties associated with job insecurity.
