In the past few years since my debut, I have skipped many companies, except for state-owned enterprises. I have basically been there, Party A, Party B, outsourcing, foreign companies, Internet companies, start-up companies...
In summary, there are so many experiences, I hope it can be of reference value to you and everyone.
1. Keep Learning
Maybe after leaving school, all learning is almost out of work needs, researching various algorithms, source codes, etc., but technology will become outdated and eliminated, and people are the same. Only by keeping yourself in a good state can you be 一直处于在学习better maintain their competitiveness.
After all, with the growth of age and qualifications, it is not impossible to stay up all night, but it will be much slower to recover, and it is completely impossible for the children who have just graduated.
Ming Yi and I, including most of the other golfers, are married and have babies. Usually, the daytime is taken up by work, and the evening time is taken up by family members. How do we study?
Here is a little tip to share:
Half an hour to an hour before going to bed every day (for example, when the baby is asleep and you are not asleep yet), in addition to the time to communicate with your family, keep reading and studying by yourself, and study at a fixed time.
Many students who are not motivated to study are more motivated or stressed. After all, Douyin and King of Glory are much more interesting than reading and coding. This is because there is no obvious fun in reading and learning. Because it is boring and boring, it brings a burden to ourselves, but we usually brush our teeth, wash our faces, and the toilet is also boring. Why is there no burden? It is because these things have become a habit, for us they have become part of our daily life.
So it is recommended to try it today, put down the phone and read a book for half an hour before going to bed, keep it for 3 days for a short time, and maybe 2 weeks for a long time to form a habit .
2. Continuous output
If learning is just reading books, you will forget them after reading them. Like reading novels, it has no value in improving yourself, so how can it be valuable?
Share your knowledge!
When we were in school, we should all have experienced learning a certain knowledge point, solving a certain problem, and even wanting to show off to our peers when we made a three-pointer. This is actually a need for psychological satisfaction. knowledge as well.
You can consider writing a blog, finding some like-minded friends in the company or other places, or at worst, sharing within the company 输出. motivation to learn.
3. Keep it professional
When you first come to the workplace, whether you are a boss or a younger brother, it is inevitable to cooperate with others.
Think about it with your heart, would you rather cooperate with a person who is considerate and thoughtful, or would you rather cooperate with a person who is confused and forgetful? The answer is clear at a glance.
Maintaining professionalism is equivalent to establishing our own brand in the workplace, just like we feel very happy when we see Coca-Cola, because the brand of Feizhai Happy Water is deeply rooted in the hearts of the people.
When someone is mentioned in the team in the company, the first reaction is to be serious and reliable, which is also a kind of brand image.
As you grow older, especially after you are over 30 years old (maybe women in the workplace will have more serious age discrimination), it is almost impossible for Haitou resumes to have a chance, but if you have established a good image, your previous partners are likely to be 品牌in Give yourself a chance in the lows, or give yourself a helping hand in the highs.
4. Technical research
It is indeed very likely that the company’s needs are only 60 points, and you can achieve 80 points because of your needs or interests. Then the overflow of this 20 points is your advantage.
If one day the company grows bigger and stronger, and the ability needs to reach 80 points or even 90 points, then compared with other colleagues who are content with only 60 points, although you can't reach 90 points, you still have an absolute advantage, one step ahead It is very likely that you will be able to take the lead step by step.
But there will be a question of trade-offs and trade-offs here, how in-depth the technology should be studied, because the improvement of technology is the same as the improvement of productivity.
As the output increases, the marginal effect will diminish. It may take one week to go from 60 points to 80 points, and one month to go from 80 points to 85 points. Do you still need to continue to improve yourself?
My answer is yes!
However, it is not to rush forward. Knowledge and skills do not exist in isolation. Knowledge in different fields may be connected or overlap. While maintaining the excellence in your own professional field, you should also spend some time studying knowledge in other fields related to it.
After all, no matter if you are a boss or a younger brother, the most valuable ability is not only the depth of knowledge, but also the depth of knowledge 解决问题的能力.
Being able to use knowledge in multiple fields 综合的解决问题will have a higher probability of perfectly solving problems than only specializing in the same skill, and the cost will be lower.
After all, when you only have a hammer in your hand, everything looks like a nail.
5. Job hopping problem
In fact, HR, including headhunting, has a formula:
What does it mean to leave after a few days of employment...
What does it mean to leave after a few months of employment...
What does it mean to leave after a few years of employment...
The disadvantage I suffered before was that I couldn't bear it when I met "stupids". When I saw them, I felt disgusted and immediately resigned. There are "stupids" here, I can't bear it and won't play with you!
However, no matter how big or small the company is, whether the team is strong or not, "stupid" can hide everywhere.
Maybe you can't see this "stupid" when you leave your job now, and there will be an even more "stupid" waiting for you after you join the next company.
So my suggestion here is: No matter how "stupid" your colleagues and bosses are, look at what you don't have in them, learn it , dig out the dry goods that are useful to you, and wait until no one can teach you anything leave before leaving.
This not only honed my xinxing, but also improved my ability. If I get rid of the "stupid", I will be more pure.
6. Marriage and childbearing
Marriage and having a baby are actually not milestones that a person must experience in his life, but a choice must be paid for it.
For example, if you don’t find a partner or get married, you have to be able to bear the desolation of seeing other people go out and go into the world of couples, and you can only hold your left hand and your right hand sourly.
Moreover, people are not independent individuals after all. If it is possible to get married or have a baby, you should listen to what other people think, including parents, clansmen, colleagues, friends...
Look at what other people's life is like when they are married/not married, have a baby/not have a baby, find the model that really suits you, and then make up your mind to stick to it
7. Consumption issues
Everyone needs to vent. Some people go camping on foot, and some people buy Gundam and play Lego. These are all normal, but what you need to pay attention to is your own purchasing power.
Some expenses are just needs for self-venting, such as buying a basketball if you like to play. Some expenses are just due to obsession and sunk costs. For example, I bought a racket recommended by a certain boss, but I didn’t use it myself, and I put it there every day for "offering".
Consider your real needs, indulge occasionally, but try to stay calm.
After all, if you grab a lot of money, the liquidity and deposits around you are the most reliable .
To put it bluntly, if you suddenly get sick and need to pay medical bills, is it quicker to withdraw the money from the bank without interest, or is it quicker to hang your beloved figure with salted fish at a low price?
8. Midlife crisis
I really don't want to write it, because I have also reached the age of being "give back to the society".
My approach here is to maintain my competitiveness, try not to do low-end brick-and-mortar work, and take more challenges with higher value-added work.
Just like designing and assembling mobile phones, if you buy an iPhone for 1w, Apple earns 8k, and Foxconn earns 8k.
When you are young, you can make money by working hard, but when you are older, especially when there are seniors and juniors, what if you can't play with your life?
To increase your added value is to do more, or at least convince your boss or other partners that you can do more things that others cannot, solve problems that others cannot, and improve your irreplaceability .
The salaries paid by the company for architects and technical experts, and the money invested by investors in the entrepreneurial team, are all paid for their past growth in a sense.
Don’t be afraid of making mistakes , be proactive about making mistakes, make more mistakes, step on more pitfalls, see more monsters than others, do things that can avoid dangers than others, and should be more valuable than others
9. Stay healthy
Including physical health and mental health.
Physical fitness involves restraining your cravings for high-calorie foods and forcing yourself to exercise.
With the increase of age, the metabolism will inevitably slow down, and the body's metabolism will decline. The most intuitive feeling is that you will gain weight if you eat casually, and it is difficult to lose the flesh on your body. If you don't pay attention, you will get sick. It's not easy.
Keep your mouth shut and open your legs, in fact, not only for losing weight, but also for your own quality of life.
I have seen many people who have high blood pressure, blood sugar, blood lipids, and uric acid at a young age. Either they can't be bothered, or they live without dignity. Anyway, it's not the life I want to live.
Mental health is more about being open-minded, maintaining optimism, etc. You can read related books .
10. Keep a good attitude
Now that the population growth is declining and the retirement age is increasing year by year, it should be impossible for us to retire in our 50s and 60s like our parents did.
In the following decades of work and life, no matter whether it is a leek or not, only by maintaining a good state can you live a more comfortable life. After all, every day is sad and happy. What you want to do, remember to forget each other even if you are rich.
