So, we are young people who are about to go to college or are already college students. From now on, we must quickly think about what our true hobbies are.
Of course, a person's interests and hobbies can also be cultivated. Many people may not be engaged in work at the beginning that is their hobby. But after a few years, they may enjoy their work.
In fact, what kind of job a person likes may be something that even he himself cannot tell clearly. We can only think like this. When we engage in a certain kind of job and make achievements, then we may like it.
Get this job.
But even if we like a certain kind of job, if we have not made any achievements in this line of work, then we may not like this kind of job anymore.
A person's hobbies are sometimes directly proportional to a person's achievements. When you have achieved something in a certain area, you will like this kind of work. When you work in a certain area for a long time
Time, if you haven’t achieved anything yet, you may not like this kind of work. Even if you like this kind of work very much at the beginning, but you have been working for several years and have achieved nothing, then will you still like this kind of work?
!You will definitely deny your ability and start to want to change careers.
As a newly graduated college student, the same is true. We are actually not sure which career is better for us. People cannot predict in which field they will succeed in the future. Only by doing it can you know what kind of career you are suitable for.
work.
When college students go to college, they may have dreams of one kind or another, thinking about what kind of person they want to be in the future. But when college students actually enter the society and start working, they will find that life is not
It was as simple as he imagined.
We all know that almost 50% of college students do not work in their major after graduation. What is the reason for this? Is it really useless to go to college? The majors in the university
Isn’t it out of touch with reality?
Obviously this issue is a very complex one, and it is impossible to explain it clearly in a few words. All majors in the university are set up according to the market. If the market guidance is lost, then the majors in the university will cease to exist.
the value of.
But there is a very serious problem, which may be something that no one has thought of. This problem can also start from the story we talked about before about Zhuangzi.
In the book "Zhuangzi", Zhuangzi wrote a story called "Pulling the Flat Wheel". I don't need to go into details about the content of this story. Everyone should know it, but about this one
We need to talk about the essence of the story again.
Although this story has some meaning to promote the futility of reading, it also has some truth. This truth can be said to be a purely philosophical truth.
Bian Lian is very good at making wheels, and the wheels he makes are very good. The cars made with his wheels drive very quickly and can be used for a long time. Bian Lian can be said to be a very talented person.
His craftsmanship is superb and he can make wheels that no one else can.
Although Bian Lun's son wanted to learn his father's talent, he couldn't learn it no matter what. In this way, Bian Lun had no choice but to continue doing this kind of work to make money even when he was seventy years old.
What kind of truth does this story illustrate? That is to say, there are some "talents" in the profession. It does not mean that you can pass it on casually. Theoretical knowledge is only theory after all. It has nothing to do with
Reality is disconnected.
Some of the most wonderful things in professional technology are simply indescribable. It can be said that they can only be understood but cannot be expressed in words. People who are engaged in this industry need to slowly understand and summarize them.
The majors learned in university are very similar to the professional skills that Bian Lun is engaged in. As long as it is a technical level, it is a process of practice making perfect. When we are doing something, we need to constantly comprehend it.
The true meaning of this matter. Only by understanding the true meaning of this matter can it be possible to do this matter well.
This process of understanding and leadership skills cannot be understood by outsiders at all. Even insiders may not be able to explain it clearly. Therefore, the majors in universities and the things they learn are, to put it bluntly, relatively superficial.
Things. Just some superficial common technical means in this line of work.
Take the doctor's profession as an example. This is also a technical profession. But how do you master the essence of this profession? This requires your students to slowly understand it. It does not mean that you have studied a medical major.
, and then you will become a qualified doctor.
Theoretical things are actually very superficial things. They cannot explain the essence of things at all. This is especially true in the medical field. What kind of technical means are needed for surgery? Here are the ways and methods of each doctor's surgery.
Maybe it's not the same.
But which method is better? Of course, this is something that cannot be generalized. It all depends on how you understand it when you are engaged in this industry.
Just like writing, how do you write a classic literary work? What skills are there? When it comes to writing, of course there are many skills. But are these skills really useful?
Why do children of writers not necessarily become writers? Children of celebrities also not necessarily become stars? It’s because everything about art is something you have to do and comprehend by yourself. As for what you can comprehend,
What kind of results you can achieve depends on your own destiny.
The role of going to college is just to let you understand the operating mechanism of a certain industry, what kind of industry it is, and what the prospects of this industry are.
Although the majors in the university are very professional, they are actually not very professional. The word major is originally a very broad concept. Although the majors in the university are now very detailed, when this kind of major is related to the real society
When linked together, they will appear relatively outdated.
The reality is constantly changing. And the majors in the university cannot be revised every year. It will definitely take many years to improve the majors in the university. Therefore, what we learn in the university is probably already
Outdated stuff.
When you learn some outdated things and then go find a job, you will realize how different what you learned is from the real world.
In fact, going to college is more of an experience. Your most precious college time is not that you learned any useful knowledge, but that you had such an experience. In fact, sometimes experience is more important than academic qualifications.
Your experience in college may have given you some conditions for success. You have made many friends in this college and met many people who are useful to your success. In this way, when you work in the future
, it is possible to make use of these resources that you had when you were in college.
There are many graduates from prestigious universities. After graduation, they did not engage in the majors they studied. Some of them started companies and became bosses. Some started from the lowest level. They may become ordinary workers, or
It is said that they open a small restaurant. They live the same life as ordinary people.
But because these people have the experience of going to prestigious universities, their vision and thinking will be higher than ordinary people. It may be because of their vision and thinking that they can turn a small business into a big business. From a small boss
Start and become a big boss step by step.
So, it doesn’t matter what university you went to. What matters is whether you made use of some of the intangible resources you had when you went to university. In fact, some visible resources are not important. And some invisible resources
That's what's more important.
A good job does not fall from the sky. A good job is a person who works hard and uses his or her own ability to have such a good job. Even a famous college student cannot have a very satisfactory job as soon as he graduates.
Getting a job first and then starting a business should be a good way for our college students to find a job. No matter what university you graduate from, when you start to move from university to society and prepare for employment, you must first lower your attitude.
Find an ordinary job first. After that, on the premise that you can support yourself by making money, then consider the career you want to do in this life. Then develop your career according to your own interests. This is more suitable.
path to employment.
Still the same sentence. The so-called scientists, artists and writers are not a job. They are just a hobby. We live in this society. Everyone wants to have a job that they truly love.
But real life is very cruel. It doesn’t mean that you can have such a job just because you want to have such a job.
In fact, no matter which field you are in, it is an industry where part-time and full-time jobs coexist. This is especially true in the areas of scientific research, literary creation, and artistic creation.
When we want to engage in work in these areas, we can first understand these words. If you want to understand what these words mean, and then you do it, then you will
I agree more with what you do.
It can be said that these three fields did not exist very early. They only came into existence after the social division of labor began to exist in human society. In other words, they only came into existence after the emergence of private ownership.
Because with private ownership, there are things like countries and rulers. When some people start doing nothing but managing the society, they start to engage in things related to their own interests. In other words, they
Suddenly some other interests arose.
Science, literature and art are essentially the same thing. What is this thing called? It should be called interest. Whether they are scientists, artists or writers, the things they engage in are all because of their own interests.
Something you do only if you love it.
These three things are essentially entertainment. However, science seems to have contributed a lot to the progress and development of human civilization. Therefore, it was divided into another group.
It became something that the rulers liked more.
Because ancient rulers preferred conquest and invasion. Military development must first be supported by science. We all know that during World War I and World War II, humans invented many advanced weapons. We also know that,
After any advanced technology comes out, it will first be used in the military.
The same is true for science now. Any most advanced technology must be used in the military first. However, this is peacetime. Any advanced technology can be used in the economy after being applied to the military.
Science may have served the rulers from the beginning. It was a tool for the rulers to rule the people. Literature and art obviously also served the rulers from the beginning. They were entertainment tools for the rulers.
In this world, there must have been rulers first, and then science, literature and art. These three things may have been created by the rulers. Of course, it may also be just things that the rulers like that were created by folk artists.
.
Of course, when the profession of worldly artists came into existence, it was almost the time of feudal society. In ancient times, it was impossible to have the profession of folk artists.
In the beginning, only the supreme rulers could have some artists who specialized in entertaining them. However, with the development and progress of society, there are also some ordinary people who can learn some skills from the superstructure and perform for ordinary people.
When the common people come to see it, these people become folk artists.
However, these so-called folk artists may be those who were demoted to civilians by the rulers because they committed some crimes in the palace, and this is why such folk artists existed.
In any case, people who engage in scientific research and literary and artistic creation may initially be kept by the country's supreme ruler as people who do not have to work and who can use their special abilities to serve the ruler.
The careers these people are engaged in have always been limited to the palace. Ordinary people simply don't understand and have never seen them.
It’s just that with the development of society, these high-level things in science, literature and art slowly penetrated from the ‘superstructure’ to the ‘substructure’. Ordinary people began to like these three things.
However, we all know that relatively speaking, there are fewer people who like science than people who like literature and art. After all, science is something that requires a very intelligent mind to play well.
