I've been busy, but I don't know what to do.

I've been busy, but I don't know what to do.

I've been busy, but I don't know what to do. In today's life, when people reflect on themselves, many people will feel that they are busy every day, but they don't know what they are busy with. The following is what I have been busy but don't know what to do!

I have been busy, but I don't know what I am busy with. 1 It took me seven years to find and exile, and four years to refine, modify and change. Maybe I dare not say that I have anything extraordinary, but at least I have gradually found my own position and the direction to work for it.

Bean friend Xiao er asked me, I don't know how to give full play to my strengths.

I think I will take the time to talk about how I found my advantage!

This process took me seven years.

I am not a particularly conspicuous person in college. More often, I like to get into my own little world. My favorite hobbies in college are painting, listening to the radio and writing. These three hobbies seem very different, but they all have one thing in common, that is, they don't need to deal with people face to face.

The club I organized at school is about drawing cartoons. At that time, I had some experience in submitting papers, so I was very busy gathering new people to join the club, holding activities and painting posters all by myself.

But there must always be a theme in organizing community activities, so I went on stage to be a teacher and share some of my past experiences with you.

I remember there were thirty or forty people at the first activity. I stood on the platform of the study room, seemingly speaking calmly, but in fact, my calf has been shaking involuntarily.

Although it is not the first time to speak on the podium, I realized for the first time that I am actually very afraid of facing others, and I am even more afraid of being watched. ...

I majored in fashion design in college, but my dream is to be a cartoonist, because my favorite Tsukasa Hojo and Narita Miyuki are both major in fashion design.

The tragic history of my comic book submission began in junior high school and I didn't publish a story until I graduated from high school. I attribute these to the fact that I have no time to create, completely ignoring my own level, technology, painters, creativity and many other mediocre root causes.

My history of submission made a good start in my freshman year. I published a four-page short story and asked me to go to the bookstore to look up magazines for three months in a row, so I realized that the original magazines needed to be prepared three months in advance.

When I bought a magazine with my works, I was so excited that I couldn't sleep well for half a month. After that, I participated in a small magazine competition, won an unexpected prize, and my confidence was greatly increased, but then I entered a state of repeated lack of progress and dilemma.

Later, due to the expansion of community activities, the editor-in-chief of the school newspaper came to me and asked me to open a comic column. My dream is a small realization, pretending to be a child in the local newspaper, and I gained a little vanity after publishing it.

My writing ability is very good. I have always been a composition representative of my class in high school, and it is ok to contribute and publish an article occasionally. The only problem is that I can only write my own stories, but I'm not good at making them up. However, when I was in college, I was so addicted to comics that I didn't care about them at all.

The radio complex has existed since childhood, and the university began to spread. As soon as my brain was hot, I went to the school radio station. Later, I visited the local radio station several times, and I didn't have a dime, but I still had a good time. When I was a junior, I went back to my hometown to participate in the selection of a radio host and won the championship around.

All these hobbies that make you happy, entertaining and rich fall apart and almost disappear after graduation.

I don't really love my major. I wonder how many people are like me now. I don't like my major very much, or maybe it's because I think I have many hobbies that I didn't learn well.

In the first year of graduation, I really became a fashion designer in order to live up to what I have learned for four years, but after experiencing boring design, repeated processes and serious market blows caused by plagiarism, I decided to give up what I have learned completely. I thought it was too easy to change careers at that time.

I always thought that I had so many hobbies that I could always find a job that suited my specialty.

Who knows, this search is seven years.

In the past seven years, I have changed from an original designer to a magazine editor, a book planner, an advertiser and an executive of a public relations company. During this period, I also worked part-time as a TV column director, novel serial author, voice actor, drama actor, TV screenwriter and illustrator for a living.

At that time, in order to make money, pay rent and pay off foreign debts, and to make myself live better, I broadened my hobbies in the process of constantly doing various part-time jobs. I'm like a little top, spinning and running, and I dare not stay in one place for too long.

Every time I am afraid of being abandoned by my industry and work, I keep hypnotizing myself and say, you don't have to be carried away by skills. Why don't you try if you have the chance?

As long as someone is willing to give you a chance, why don't you challenge yourself? If you don't do it, how do you know you can't?

My self-confidence collapsed at a college reunion four years after graduation. It was the only party I attended for a long time after graduation, and I still hate it when I think about it.

The reason for the party is that my best friend got married. She kindly put her friends from the same session in her early years on a table, and I was on pins and needles that night. When former classmates meet, they will inevitably ask, how are you doing now? How much is it a month? Did you buy a house? Then Barabara said a bunch of nonsense.

At that time, some of those people switched to interior design after graduation, with a salary of over 10 thousand; If someone buys a house in Beijing after marriage, even the down payment borrowed from home can be regarded as a family; Good career development, step by step promotion; Have clear plans to start your own company in the future.

Compared with them, I seem to be a teenager who is interested in everything in college and sees the world with a pair of curious eyes. A monthly salary of more than 3,000 yuan is a silly boy's dream of joining the WTO.

No matter from financial income, future planning, or life goals, they all gave me the best example. I felt ashamed and inferior that night.

I realized for the first time that I have been busy all these years, but I don't know why. I don't have any career plans. I just got a job, and I'm hungry. I have many part-time opportunities, but both the cooperation time and the final income are extremely unstable.

I always thought I wanted to live a life that didn't conform to the rules like them, but I finally found out that the most ridiculous thing was myself. ...

Everyone says that you are talented, and people who have worked with you say that you have a good attitude and are happy to cooperate, but how do you know that it is not because you are new, but because you are cheap?

I thought I could absorb more knowledge by spreading it out, but I found that I had too little patience. Every attempt is a shallow taste, seemingly numerous, but I am only a novice in any field.

The first time I was trapped in my hobby, I couldn't find the way forward.

In the next two years, I gradually narrowed the scope of my part-time job, giving up the TV field, the drama club and writing novels. My part-time job gradually focuses on interviewing people. After testing the water in the entertainment circle, I entered an advertising company, and then I jumped to my present enterprise.

3 1 year-old, I haven't found my life goal yet, and I don't know which way I should take in the future.

The so-called strengths of the whole body have gradually changed from being in a mess to being able to write something and having experience in several industries.

Then I began to think, what should I highlight?

One can have a wide range of interests, but it is certainly impossible for a hundred flowers to blossom. I am neither a genius nor a child prodigy. I'm sure I can't write, draw, act or shoot TV.

I am a very stupid layman. God gave me a good opportunity to contact so many fields and industries. In fact, I just want to calm my fickle heart and let me tell myself that those are not suitable for you.

I still hope to be a person who can concentrate and have special skills. Maybe I wasted too much time in front of me, so I didn't have a chance to become a professional, so I will try my best to find a good one among my seemingly comprehensive hobbies and concentrate on building it!

The first thing I did was write. I think it is something that I can grasp and improve at present. I threw away all the novels, essays, Anne Baby and Zhang Ailing on the shelves in the past, and began to buy magazines, biographies, books about spiritual growth, psychology, city books and so on.

I broke the original reading category and began to dabble in most things I didn't like before. I read 15 magazine and 4 books every month, and mark the good topics, manuscripts and plans when I see them.

I have never had the habit of taking notes before, but I began to learn to write summaries and learn to summarize what I think is the biggest point in a book, and what I think is the most successful place in a good magazine topic selection plan.

Start to improve your interview level in a planned and purposeful way, from a third-rate newspaper to a second-tier magazine, and finally to a first-tier magazine. Every time I do a personal interview, I need to watch 10 hours of video interview materials and 70,000 words of written materials. After fully understanding and analyzing this person, I will gradually list the main lines and keywords, bypass the most mentioned questions before, and circle several key points of this interview with emphasis.

Many things are actually not difficult, and the biggest fear is that you are not careful.

When you do it with your heart, you will find that you can understand many doorways, such as how to cut in the interview, how to use circuitous tactics, how to let the other side relax their vigilance, how to have a fair conversation, and how to arm themselves to build defense.

These are all lessons learned from repeated experiments.

In addition, I did a self-combing and listed the problems that should be solved at present.

Frankly speaking, the problems I faced in the first three years of entering this company were neither so-called "career orientation" nor mysterious "career planning". Is your plan useful? You want to be the general manager in three years. Are your abilities, levels and opportunities predictable? If you had told me about positioning and planning three years ago, I would have left that sentence on your face.

At that time, the most problem I faced was how to adapt to change and how to survive.

I have changed three leaders in three years, and different leaders have their own styles and orientations.

The resignation or transfer of every leader means that you should immediately change your own channels and make a new comb and observation.

I'm almost fired as cannon fodder, and I'm exhausted and tired of coping.

"Surviving" was the biggest test I had to face at that time, and quick adaptability was the best teaching I got from the changes in these three years. After sorting out the difficulties and situations I faced, "emphasizing execution" was the only choice I could make at that time.

I want to be an energetic, enthusiastic and reliable person! This creed was set when I first encountered leadership changes! Because everyone needs such employees!

A good attitude, an attitude of not shirking, and a good work efficiency actually require strong emotional control ability and greater inner space, so I participated in a series of training on self-improvement.

Maybe many people think it's like shouting slogans after beating chicken blood, but I have a very deep understanding of it, because I needed these at that time.

So when I met a new task later, I always liked to say that it was too fun and I had long wanted to get in touch with it!

When I meet new changes, I always like to say that this is a good thing, and change will give birth to motivation!

When encountering difficulties, I like to say to myself, nothing! Don't worry, there will always be a solution!

A change in mentality brings about a change in mental outlook. I used some tips to remind myself to stick to my work, not only to stick to it but also to enrich it.

My little trick is tie.

Although the company requires formal attire during office hours, it does not require wearing a tie.

I always wear a tie. In the process of tying a tie in front of the mirror, I will constantly remind myself to smile and pay attention to communication details. I will remind myself of my professionalism and restrain my emotional weakness.

Ties, shoes and watches have become three signs of my self-discipline. These three things exist not for decoration but to remind ourselves to pay attention to efficiency, attitude and professionalism.

In the past three years, I have been facing the work in this state and constantly managing my own strengths.

I always thought that everyone had a label. This label is actually the impression you leave in other people's minds. This label combines your words and deeds, your appearance, temperament, clothes, conversation, and every detail of your whole body.

Practical, reliable, strong execution, this is the label I set for myself, dare to challenge, dare to fight, this is the label I strive to achieve.

Because you have to do this, you can have the courage and strength to study, recharge and make up for the shortcomings.

Every time I meet a new task, I have to force myself to say, OK! I will try!

Then face the difficulties with a positive attitude, and you will definitely find a solution.

I remember that when I first joined the company for one year, the first task I met was to preside over the annual meeting. I am afraid to face the stage and the crowd, but I am very uneasy inside. This tension finally eased, because I had an allergic reaction before I went on stage and missed the host.

I used to do drama performances just to satisfy my curiosity, but at that time, as a walk-on, I felt extremely nervous and suddenly became the protagonist on the stage, and this change could not be debugged.

In order to overcome my nervousness before going on stage, I got a part-time job as a wedding emcee through my friend's relationship, and I overcame my nervousness before going on stage through more than a dozen weddings. The host of the second annual meeting was not handy, but at least for myself, that fear and fear was reduced by half.

Many old friends who have known me for many years will be surprised at my changes in recent years. I sometimes wonder if I have really changed too much.

I gave up painting and many hobbies, and I began to become rational, logical and introverted. These are really different from my naive and freewheeling self in my early years, but isn't that what I want to change?

How can you get it if you don't give up in the world? How can you get some without giving up some?

Perhaps natural growth is the slowest and most comfortable way, but once you understand it, you must constantly force yourself to change, accept and grow.

It took me seven years to find and exile, and four years to refine, modify and change. Maybe I can't say that I have anything outstanding now, but at least I have gradually found my own position and the direction to work for it.

This is the process of looking for labels all my life. Maybe I spent too much time on it, but I don't regret it. Although I didn't have happiness and freedom in the seven-year search, at least it finally gave me peace of mind. I think if I hadn't tried all kinds of things in those years, I might not be who I am now.

No matter what the experience is, you will have your own experience. I am a person who likes to sum up, and I like to reflect on myself by summing up. Maybe you also have your own way of summarizing and reflecting. In short, remind yourself in your own way: go forward, go up and never stop!

I've been busy, but I don't know what to do. 2 0 1

Do you have the feeling that when we are busy all day, our friends ask you what you are busy with today? Think about it carefully, the answer is no, it's really a busy day, but I don't know what I'm busy with, so time has passed.

In retrospect, we didn't waste time or do anything unrelated to our work. We just finished the daily prescribed actions step by step, such as checking emails, answering phones, dealing with some urgent things, or writing reports that are about to be handed in, and then it's time to get off work.

However, although time slips through our fingers, all the things that occupy it are actually classified as meaningless in our brains, and then we can only helplessly sum up one sentence: I am busy every day!

Isn't this a waste of time in another sense?

In a blink of an eye, one day, someone suddenly asks you where your core competitiveness is, and sometimes you are really speechless. Really, really, I suddenly found that I don't have any special skills. I seem to be doing a job that anyone can replace every day, and I suddenly feel like canceling it.

02

From the perspective of time management, I have to mention the four-quadrant theory, which I think is familiar to most people. Simply put, it is an important and urgent two-dimensional plane division. I am busy doing what I think is important and urgent at present every day.

Experts in time management will tell us why we become unpredictable and busy every day, because when this matter is not so urgent, even if it is important, we choose to delay, which leads to many important and urgent things happening at any time.

However, the reason why we still think we are busy after being extremely busy is not because we can manage our time well, but because there is a potential and key problem here, that is, how to distinguish the important?

What's important?

For newcomers to the workplace, most people will think that what leaders say is very important, and I used to think so. In fact, when you think so, you set yourself a principle to distinguish whether it is important or not, that is, everything that can be recognized by the leaders is important.

Is that really the case?

Not necessarily!

Is it important for the leader to write an analysis report and let you export the data in the system? Is it important to hold a forum to arrange for you to contact relevant personnel and do some relevant meetings? Is it important for you to participate in the formulation of the promotion plan when the new product comes out?

Judging from these independent tasks alone, I believe everyone gives different answers to whether the answer is important or not. Some people will think that guiding data and meeting are trivial matters, and urgency is not important. The formulation of new product scheme looks very high-end and should be very important.

However, if I told you that the leader's analysis report is an important basis for the group company's decision-making, the people attending the meeting are strategic heavyweight customers of the company, and the promotion of new products is only a project that the leader really wants to give up, but for some reason he has to do something, how would you judge this problem?

03

Having said that, I think we will see more clearly how we define whether a thing is important or not, not the attitude of the leader, but what you think of career development.

Personal career development is often closely related to the company's prospects to a certain extent, especially when you determine a platform, which becomes particularly important.

A few years ago, I was nominated as the team leader of another department. A leader who has a good relationship with me reminded me to consider this matter carefully, because the work of this department is not so important from the perspective of company development planning, and it is the icing on the cake, not the core business.

It's like you entered a good university, but you studied the most unpopular major in this school.

But many times, if you look at this problem from another angle, you will find that this is not necessarily a bad thing. Because you should pay more attention to your personal career development than your career development in the company.

Development is the absolute need/Development is of overriding importance.

For us who grew up in an exam-oriented education environment, getting high marks is the most intuitive goal of receiving education in school. Whether teachers or elders around them are most concerned about whether you can go to a good university.

Career planning seems to be something that should be considered after work. In the process of learning, the closest to this question is actually the time when the college entrance examination fills in the volunteers.

But many of us are more inclined to listen to the opinions of our elders and the people in our neighbors who you think are awesome, and never think about what we want to do in the future. In fact, even if I wanted to, I didn't know much about it.

So we often let ourselves fall into inner embarrassment, and often find that I don't like this major, but I have to study again. I don't like this job, but I must do it well. In order to motivate myself not to waste time, I constantly encourage myself to "do and love"!

Some people found the fun of this business after the initial struggle, successfully transferred their previous persistence and found the goal; Some people summon up courage, choose the true love in their hearts, shake their heads smartly, turn around and leave, and rush to the future in their hearts; However, more and more people are doing jobs that they don't like, working hard in numbness and confusion, and living like this for a lifetime.

Back to the scene at the beginning of the article, why do you still feel that all this is meaningless after you are busy? The root cause is that your heart judges that these things are not good for your personal development!

Have we clearly planned our own development? In fact, everyone has a ruler in his heart. As long as we keep quiet and think carefully in the noise, we will find it easily.

What exactly is this ruler? In fact, it is the goal that your heart desires to achieve. We almost all know that the goal is very important, but how to locate it? This question often puzzles us.

Where is your strategy?

For this problem, the most important thing for us is to find our real interest, that is, what kind of life you want to live in the future. Some people may say that what they are interested in is not necessarily promising, or not necessarily good at it.

The future is related to how you define the life you want. As for being good at it, it is positively related to interest itself. We often find that the better we are at something, the more interested we are in doing it.

According to the incentive theory in economics, when you do what you are good at, you will get more recognition, and you will be willing and more confident to accept greater challenges, thus achieving greater personal growth.

What should I do after giving myself a clear position? Professor Clayton from Harvard Business School. In How Do You Measure Your Life, Christensen mentioned the strategic allocation of resources in your life.

Strategic management, originally a concept of enterprise management, is also applicable to our work and life.

For us personally, what resources are precious and worthy of our careful configuration? There is no denying that it is time and energy. Put them where you really think they are important, and then you will really feel that your busyness is worthwhile, not blindly busy.

If you believe that your value can be reflected in your current job, you must grasp the core issues and conduct in-depth research, for example, just let you collect data, while you carefully explore the law and put forward your own opinions in combination with the current measures.

For example, you are only required to arrange a meeting, but you should pay attention to establishing your own customer database and combining the previous market research. In the long run, you will become a leader in this field.

If, after careful consideration, you feel that your current job is not what you are good at or what you want, you hope to open up another world.

Then you must remember to deal with the current affairs in a timely and orderly manner, and try to squeeze out some time every day to leave room for the important things in your heart, instead of shouting slogans all day.

It doesn't matter what the plan is, it is important to see the progress of change and completion every day! At the same time, seek the best transformation and change. After all, time is the most irreversible resource.

05

Make the measurement clear.

When we return to the starting point of the soul, determine our own development strategies, and resolutely implement them, so that the yardstick for measuring them becomes clear and visible, we will completely get rid of the feeling that we seem to be always busy!
