The first is your own interest.
If you are engaged in the research or work direction you are interested in, you will be willing to explore and develop, and it will be faster to establish your own resources. Relying on your familiarity with the industry, constantly understanding its history and your own understanding, you can better predict the future. Now is the information age, new things are updated quickly, and they are likely to suddenly appear in places you are interested in. As long as you can grasp and grasp it, you can go to a higher level at once, instead of accumulating experience by years like traditional work. Doing ordinary work may lead to passive growth through long hours of work or some good opportunities, but it is easier to find new things and improve actively by doing things that interest you. This is the biggest difference between the two.
At the end of last year, I knew a friend in Shenzhen, who was the UI manager of a software company. He is over 30 years old, but he won't do it by the end of this year. He may come to work with us online. According to his own words, he made such a simple design, and now he wants to go to his hobby.
The second is prediction and innovation.
The forecast here is different from the above. Many people predict that when something is good, there will always be a large number of people rushing to it. Those who rush ahead may indeed get great benefits, but those who rush behind may not be so good. What is needed at this time is calm thinking and another fairyland.
Because each industry is different, whether each industry can carve another fairyland is different. For example, some branches of science and technology industries may easily find more new ways out, while some traditional industries do not have so many opportunities to carve another fairyland. So these can also be taken into account when choosing the direction.
The third is with your own personality and attitude.
Those who are ambitious and adventurous in their careers and those who like to live a quiet life will definitely choose different jobs and industries. Therefore, this factor should be fully considered in their future career development. In addition, due to gender reasons, the career choices of men and women will be different. For example, I think girls are much better than boys as teachers.
The fourth is unpredictable factors such as opportunities and turning points.
Sometimes people will encounter many unexpected factors, such as the transfer of interests, meeting an important person, the emergence of opportunities and so on. When these things appear, they may lead to changes in their future concerns. When these factors appear, we should learn to know fairly well, grasp the overall situation, and be cautious in what we say and do.
The above four points are my own views, that is, my views on the choice of professional direction and career development. Please forgive my many shortcomings and wordiness, and I hope you can get some useful information from it.
Tip: People with high academic qualifications who are engaged in high-paying jobs and those with high viability and low academic qualifications will try to be bosses and look for unknown business opportunities, and they can also succeed. Reading is not the whole of life. Don't sigh because your education is not high. Believe me, I can do it. It's just that different people take different roads. The adaptability of survival is the most important thing.
