A few anecdotes
1.
I’m an Android programmer in a third-tier city in my hometown. I’m currently 30 years old. I repeat my life at two o’clock and one line every day. I am not busy at work and very comfortable. Sometimes I will daze at the computer when I’m fine. The salary is so-so, but I always have this in my heart. This kind of life is not what I want. I have always wanted to do that kind of free career. I feel that I feel more fulfilled even if I am a little tired. I have been paying attention to the vibrato tapes for this period of time. I feel that the short video is still relatively popular. But I dare not quit my job and do it, can you give me some suggestions.
A few days ago, a reader gave me a message. I replied to him, "You who want to give up typing code, come and ask me a person who intends to keep typing code until death, what advice do you have on this matter, what kind of response do you think you will receive? Then I In turn, I have to ask you whether you are attracted by your so-called "free and fulfilling" yearning for life, or because of the fear of the current easy and confused work that makes you have the idea of changing careers."
His answer to me was that he was not sure either. Finally, my advice to him is "Why not use the time outside of work to learn some new technologies, so that one is to "enrich" what you want, and the other is to consider going to the front line after you can improve your skills. The city finds a job where the salary is no longer "so-so", or even sprints to a big factory, then it is not too late for you to see if you still have the idea of changing careers."
He replied to me, "I can't learn anymore, and I don't have the mind to learn." I...

There is a story in one of my favorite movies, "Worry-free Grocery Store". 20 years ago, a girl born as an orphan became a dancer because of her life. The income was good, but she betrayed her dignity. Splurge on youth. Later, he was almost deceived by a liar, and his wealth was empty.
She wrote a letter about the situation, telling her that being a dancer is not a long-term solution and must be changed.
So when she was 20 years old, she chose to start classes again, study hard, study accounting, learn English, and take college entrance examinations. With hard work, she continued to accumulate wealth, and finally became a female entrepreneur and helped people who had helped her before. The orphanage called "Rainbow House".
You may say this is a movie, but reality tells you that you can't be wrong to give up ease and change yourself.

I have read a question on Zhihu: "What do you see who is the least motivated person?" The
first answer is:
"I've seen most people do not seek to make progress, they are anxious for the status quo, and no determination to change their practice perseverance.
Heat for three minutes, often hate their own blame, adhere to most things that could not get on.
All day removed from the social On the Internet, faces are sallow facing the cold-light screens of mobile phones and computers, but few people can say a few words.
They are buried in the crowd with the most ordinary identities, but they live the most tormented days."
A touch
In real life, there are many ordinary people like this. They talk about the mountains when they are at get off work, and eat or drink or play games when they are off work.
Every day, I keep my mobile phone in my hand, and slowly scan Weibo, Moments, and a short video for an hour or two. It’s time to go to bed after 10 o’clock, and the phone is still unwilling to put it down. It’s early in the morning unknowingly. It’s nicknamed "Night Owl". The next day I sometimes get up after 7 o’clock and rush to work, and occasionally be late to be trained by the boss. .
On the weekends, staying at home, with no interests or hobbies, Ge You lied for a day.
It’s been a long time since I’ve been studying, and I’m not going to the gym. I insisted on getting up early and I couldn’t get up. People have become fatter and have more fat on their stomachs. I work slowly for a day every day, and I never thought about what I would gain on this day.
It turns out that you are full of passion, "Are you from Penghao in my generation, hanging on the clouds and sailing to the sea".
Now you have to pass it by, "Wife and child are hot on the bed, and after a day has passed three hours".
You have also been anxious about life, low wages, no objects, physical well-being, growing older, and you can see the life of 60 when you are 20.
But you were too comfortable, and then slowly stopped struggling, couldn't find the direction, and became what you once hated.
Author shared
In 2013, the author switched to Java for Android development. He has been in a small factory, and has also been to a large factory such as Huawei and OPPO. In April 18th, he joined Ali until now.
I have been interviewed and interviewed many people. I know that most junior and intermediate Android engineers want to improve their skills. They often grow up on their own. The unsystematic learning effect is inefficient and long, and it is easy to encounter the ceiling technology stagnation!
We have compiled a complete set of learning materials for Alibaba P7-level Android architects, which are especially suitable for in-depth learning and improvement for small partners with more than 3-5 years of experience.
Mainly include Ali, and the mainstream architecture technology of ByteDance, Tencent, Huawei, Xiaomi, and other first-line Internet companies. If you need it, just take it away.
The detailed arrangement can be seen on my Github .
The 35-year-old middle-aged crisis is mostly caused by being led by short-term interests and squeezing out value prematurely. If you can establish a correct long-term career plan from the beginning. After 35, you will only be more valuable than the people around you.
