Chapter 66 of the Seven-year Plan-Super Personal 5 (Career Prospect)-About Career Migration

It is easy for us to pay attention to the value of new things, but we often ignore the value of what we have now? When you need to move, whether it's a house or a job, you don't have to start all over again. You should separate the most valuable part of the existing value and bring it to new areas to continue to add value.

In uncertain times, our professional needs often migrate-one migration is spatial, from one industry to another; The other is temporality, from one era to another.

Around 2002, the most popular teaching method was large class teaching. At that time, a class 1000 people laughed at a joke and cried at a story ... The core skill at that time was the ability to speak in public. Slowly, more people enter the market, and the core skills become product research and development capabilities-you must constantly innovate. In the third stage, the large class gradually becomes a small class. At this time, a few teachers are not enough, and the ability to recruit students and the ability of teachers to operate become the focus. This is the migration of time.

There is also the spatial migration of professional needs-first-and second-tier cities and third-and fourth-tier cities, people buy different things and like different teaching methods.

You see, the education industry is an urgent field, but its migration in time and space can bring two or three generations in more than ten years, not to mention other rapidly developing fields. At each stage, you need to use completely different skills and knowledge. How can you not be killed on the beach?

The ability to solve problems in one field can be transferred to another field after transformation, because the problem-solving skills can be transferred.

It's important to learn new knowledge, but the secret that cattle people can be the best in the world in many fields is that they can transfer skills from other fields to new fields and form advantages through continuous superposition. They have entered many different new fields with the same learning ability and inductive ability-it is a simple truth to eat all over the world.

Firstly, the concepts of three competency cores are introduced. A series of knowledge and skills to accomplish a thing is called ability, which is divided into three parts: knowledge, skills and talent? .

The so-called knowledge is the professional knowledge, ideas and work processes in this field, which comes from learning and memory. For example, the book I read in this column follows the process of knowledge;

Skill refers to a series of actions that we can skillfully operate and complete, which comes from training. For example, writing, problem solving, English, information collection and time management;

Talent is some skills, qualities and traits that we internalize into unconscious use through a lot of practice. It is a mixture of innate talent and acquired practice, which is internalized from skills through a lot of training. For example: optimism, humor, intuition.

Senior investors often need to know a brand-new industry within a week and make decisions. So what are the three cores of an investment manager's ability?

Knowledge: knowledge of various industries, familiar with investment process and understanding of various business models.

Skills: fast learning, data investigation, structural thinking, emotional intelligence, negotiation ability.

Talent: determination at critical moments, first-class insight, and personal charm.

When an investment manager has basic skills and talent, he can pay attention to a new field in a short time and quickly become a master in this field. Moreover, with these low-level abilities, can he engage in other things besides investment? Absolutely. These abilities are also the ability to do strategic analysis, enterprise consultation and writing integration; If you add some gambling and organizational skills, this is the ability of entrepreneurs. Although cattle people always migrate between fields, they just re-learn the same knowledge, skills and talents.

Because the CEO's job is similar to sales, you need to sell the product to others. As a CEO, you need to sell your business ideas to business partners, your vision to employees and your business plan to investors. In essence, the position of leadership and sales is highly transferable. The CEOs of many Internet companies are product people because their competency models are closer.

For example, Wang Yangming, a great sage who made contributions and made a statement. He is simply an ant of the Ming Dynasty. Everyone who meets him will die. You have to be depressed to read his biography or something-how can one have such high attainments in philosophy, military affairs and literature at the same time? In fact, Wang Yangming is also a master of migration and integration-in the 13th year of Zhengde in Ming Dynasty, Wang Yangming wrote a letter to disciple Xue Kan before going into the mountains to suppress thieves.

"It is easy to break a thief in the mountains, but difficult to break a thief in the heart. It's no different from a rat thief. It is a great achievement for a gentleman if a sage sweeps away all the achievements of a bosom friend. " Although the professional fields of marching to war and self-cultivation are different, human nature is the same. If we transfer the skills of cultivating our own mind and overcoming our greed, it is the way to break the mountain thief. The skills and talents learned in the struggle against oneself can also be skills and talents for military success. "

So you only need to practice one and you will know everything.

We often say that interlacing is like a mountain. In fact, the only thing that really separates us is the ticket office at the bottom entrance The higher we go, the closer we get to and familiar with our abilities and talents. So everyone says-all efforts will not be in vain, and they are all related. This is not chicken soup. When you understand the three cores of ability, what they actually say is: As long as you have worked hard in a certain field, your improved skills and talents will not be in vain, and you can move towards the future.

Hokkekyo said "? Do you donate? " That's what it means.

Ability consists of three parts: knowledge, skills and talents. Interlaced like a mountain is knowledge, skills can be transferred in different professional fields, and talents can be extended in all aspects of life and work.

Capabilities can be combined, so they can be split. Separated skills and talents can be moved to new fields to continue training, and there is no need to start again.

For example, when you attend a friend's party today and introduce yourself, you say:

"I play basketball very well and won the first place in the city's basketball competition."

Everyone said "wow", and then what? They may call you when they play ball in the future.

But what if you say this:

"I play basketball very well. In my senior year, I led a team to win the first place in the city's basketball competition. It was the first time that our school entered the top three over the years. In fact, my physical fitness is not excellent, so I choose to be a defender. As a defender, I must try my best to shoot the middle distance. People should have the ability to learn a skill to the extreme, so my medium and long-range shot is not bad; When I led the team, I also learned how to make a group of cattle people Qi Xin work together to cultivate their own leadership; We almost got out once, but I think it's a chance to turn defeat into victory. I made a speech during the intermission, which inspired everyone. Later, I read a book and realized that this is called "adversity quotient". When I meet a new thing now, I will apply this way of doing things-first see the overall situation clearly, find my position accurately, and then make repeated efforts to make one of my advantages the best; Then lead a group of cattle people and let them cooperate with each other; Once I encounter a trough, I think this is an opportunity and I will let everyone move against the trend. "

After you tell this story, what will others ask of you in the future? At least they will think of you when they lack management, lead a team and start a business.

Tell me one thing you did very well;

Extract an ambiguous term-XX ability, so that everyone can understand what this ability is;

Tell or hint to everyone what it will bring to your new field.

The difference between the two is whether you really do something well. In the middle of this matter, you did something stupid by a wise man, and then you can take this ability to a new field. If you do it, it is called extraction; If you haven't done it, it's a bluff.

Even if you don't like your job, it's not a problem. The question is whether you play hard and live hard. ——? If you are a beginner and don't even work hard to play and live, what is worth refining in your life? Your attitude towards life, work and hobbies is your attitude towards life.

First of all, only solid skills can be migrated. Therefore, whether it is a positive migration or a negative migration, we must first set up a stable shelf before moving out, otherwise it will fall apart as soon as we move. Simply put, it is to do what you are doing well and practice hard.

Secondly, when touching a strange target, don't rush to start work, but think clearly about the goal and result of this matter? -Then push it back.-What does this thing need? Which competencies can be migrated and which competencies will be negatively migrated and need to be adjusted?

Finally, try to avoid learning too many skills at the same time? -Ahem.-Including our column. If you are really learning control-try to avoid practicing too many similar skills at the same time, otherwise it is easy to have a negative transfer with each other and learn nothing.

Why is Lego great and has such lasting competitiveness? Because if a toy has a fixed ability, no matter how fun it is, it will get tired of playing for a while. But Lego is a combination. If you are tired of playing, we can reassemble it in a new way. Different occasions, different ages and different imaginations can spell out thousands of shapes.

Lego said that God only used 170 elements to create the whole world. Lego has nearly 7,000 commonly used modules, which other toys can't do.

Today's workplace is ever-changing, but we also have a constantly changing way, that is, skill migration and reorganization. The ability to combine skills is a more important ability.

A super person is such a person. Can be assembled into different abilities in different tasks; Different roles can also combine different abilities. One at home, one at work, one now, one in the future, and then add a new module every once in a while-your form is fluid and your appearance is always the latest version.

The typical ability structure of outstanding talents is T-shaped structure.

The horizontal direction of T is "experience" on the left, "general skills" on the right, and "professional ability" vertically. If a person has enough knowledge and circles, a large number of transferable skills and a professional knowledge, this is the best ability structure-"one expert with many functions and zero defects".

If it is a field with low threshold and great competition, it is suggested to cultivate general skills first, such as marketing, sales and planning. If it is a field with high threshold and narrow field, it is suggested to cultivate professional ability first, such as technology, research and development, and art.

Actually, it is not. Learning and practicing any kind of professional ability requires a lot of skills such as mobility, self-management, methodology and way of thinking, as well as the support of self-discipline and enthusiasm.

By polishing your own abilities, you can achieve the results of what you are doing, and then extract your own abilities and move towards more valuable fields. Cheap things will not be valuable because of circulation, but will be cheaper.

Good jobs are hard to find, good girls are hard to find, and there are no shortcuts to places worth going.

The overall time is suggested to be 2: 3: 5, but I estimate that most people are 5: 3: 2, because the horizon pattern and brain opening are relatively cool, and it is easy to form social currency.

So just focus on it in stages.

Learn from the end, not from anxiety.

If you must learn many skills at the same time, the best way is to combine abilities in turn with the scene as the goal.

Example: You need to give a speech at an international conference in one year. This is a specific application scenario.

The abilities you need to improve may include: spoken English, speaking ability, research ability, PPT ability. Among them, PPT ability can be subcontracted, and the other three need to be practiced by themselves. The order should be: research ability is a line, and oral and speech ability is a line.

In fact, there will be some conflicts between research ability and speech ability, one is introverted and the other is extroverted; A conservative and quiet, a radical publicity, staggered may be better. Speech ability has improved rapidly, but oral English is relatively slow; You can practice oral English first and improve it slowly.

Look, for a scene, I quickly know the order and conflict of all skills.

But it would be foolish to brush four skills at the same time.

Every day there are new insights:

1. All my efforts will not be in vain, because I used to be an entertainment media editor and I had to write a lot of articles every day, so now I have no trouble writing articles, including sorting out problems and writing my own ideas.

I have done software sales and training before, and I have my own considerations on the thinking, organization and process of many things.

I am now working as a salesman in the advertising industry. I know that only by finding a large number of potential customers can I have a chance to close the deal. I also know that it will be very important to be a stand-alone machine, so it is necessary to do key things at key times to achieve performance. Then, if you don't know anything in the early stage, you will always gain something from groping in different directions.

There are no shortcuts to many things, and the road has to be taken step by step. You have finished the stupid work of a smart person, and then you can take this ability to a new field. If you do it, it is called extraction; If you haven't done it, it's a bluff. Cheap things will not be valuable because of circulation, but will be cheaper. Good jobs are hard to find, good girls are hard to find, and there are no shortcuts to places worth going.

3. Don't use choice instead of hard work! Don't use choice instead of hard work! Don't use choice instead of hard work! (This is a message from the classical teacher at the top of the comment area! )

4. I learned too much information, and later found that I knew nothing. It takes time to sort out what I need.

To broaden the horizon of life, it is enough to find 1-2 people in stages. (The least time! 20%)

Open your mind and brush your cognition, constantly update your views and learn new knowledge. (30% of the time)

Used to solve problems around you and improve specific abilities. After reading this, you must practice, or the more you practice, the more harmful it will be. (Spend the most time! 50%)

This is where we are easily confused in our study!
