As an ordinary programmer:
You want to buy a house and don't want to rent anymore in a remote area away from your company Commute 4 hours a day to get off work
If you want to buy a car, you can drive it around the mountains on weekends, look at the red leaves and listen to the birdsong
When you want to buy clothes, go to a shopping mall with a bright smile and a smile instead of looking for an unknown name to buy affordable clothes online every time
You want to travel 10 times a year 8 times a year, dive in Koh Samui today and eat maple syrup in Quebec tomorrow
You want to give your parents a living allowance of 50,000 yuan a year and make them smile with relief
These thoughts fail to materialize and will cause you pain on a regular basis. This kind of pain will deepen with the increase of your working time, and gradually become the background color of your life-your background color was originally simple and bright, but now it is dark and gloomy.
In fact, 90% of these so-called pains can be solved with money. The premise is: your value can continue to increase, and the speed of making money exceeds the expansion of demand. Eliminate these pains, happiness will have an environment to grow, and it will not be so easy to be overwhelmed.
But as an ordinary programmer, you find that bottlenecks come one after another. When it comes to technology, I don’t know how to keep improving and how to persevere; when I switch to management, I don’t know how to start. As a result, before I can understand it, half a year has passed, and when I look back, it seems that my ability has not improved much, but the salary growth rate is more and more unable to keep up with inflation.
Sometimes you feel that the development work is getting harder and harder, and the call for transformation is getting louder and louder, but you don't know what else you can do if you leave the development position. Seeing that others can choose to be freelancers or achieve financial freedom, I envy in my heart, but when I turn around, I can only sigh: Where is my path?
If you think about it, you will find that all you need to do is make more money!
Is this conclusion vulgar?
No, that's the reality!
For most developers, many troubles in work and life actually originate from: how to make more money.
If you want to make more money, you have to go back to the original point of the problem and think about the nature of personal money making.
The essence of making money personally is to sell time! Is it right?
From a time-of-sale perspective:
Personal income = number of hours available for sale per day × price per unit time × number of sales per unit time
In this formula, there are three elements, the brief description is:
Amount of time available for sale per day
Price per unit of time
Number of sales at the same time
Combined with the specific situation of the developer, a variety of ways to increase revenue can be found. Refer to the table below:
Maybe you know all these ways and more, but how?
This is a big problem!
There is a gap between knowing and doing. To bridge it, you must not only work hard, but also pay attention to methods.
So, what kind of thinking and methods do you need to use to find a way to increase your income that suits you?
