Editor's note: The author of this article Yu Yu, the first law in its public number "Yu Yu thought" (No.: Yurii-says), authorized 36 Krypton released. Yu Yu is the author of a few catfish in your team that sparked a lively discussion, and this time there's something new to share with you.
People's life, of course, there is a lot of time to explore their own and to make their own choices, other people's teachings, often do not interfere with the choice, but will let people less detours, more quickly reach their goals. Below, I have made my own impressive teachings (or "suggestions"), both thanks to you and to the benefit of more people through sharing.
"Technology is your destiny."
This is the university when the Chinese department of the teacher Wang told me. At that time I basically not on the computer's specialized course, the evening self-study to see the original textbook, during the day in the library bubble, plus to the Chinese department lectures. For people who have received only natural science education, not bound to read the charm of literature and history Zhe is too big, the more the more fascinated, coupled with the network bundle is very loose, it is easy to chat on the internet and the boiling blood-just, I never thought of what to do with their graduation.
As a result, another chat with teacher Wang, he told me: "Technology is your settlement, history and philosophy can only be interested." Although I did not understand the true meaning of this sentence, but still do, and set aside a lot of time to learn computer expertise. Of course, the final understanding is still Mr. Wang's help to complete. Once on the classes, he said: "In the face of human injustice, as an intellectual we certainly have the responsibility to battle." But there are many ways to do it. Are you hoping for a shirtless or a go into battle? At that moment, I understood the meaning of "technology is the essence of settlement", and it is useful to this day.
"To set the target higher."
This is also the teaching of college teachers. When I was a senior in the computer room, my program soon finished, and the teaching of ginger teacher chat. He asked me to find a job, I saw Liu Ren "Knowledge Hero 2.0" fascinated (this book I still in the old Banyan opened 8848 bought it), said: "I want to go to foreign companies as a programmer."
I remember his expression at that time, and then said: "I give you some advice, usually, you set yourself a goal is to reach the vertex, and even can not reach." Now you just want to step into a foreign company as a programmer, it is possible to go to domestic enterprises as a programmer, what is the meaning? Young people, still want to set a higher goal. ”
Later perhaps I did not set the goal so high, but I also do not want to set boundaries, so I walked out of a road I never thought, and look back to go is not bad.
Is kung fu a conscientious, or stupid?
After graduating from college I want to go to Beijing to work, but I actually did not have any experience, and there is no resources to help, in fact, there is not much confidence, the pressure is not small.
I heard that I was going to Beijing, and an uncle invited me to dinner. He told me a story: A personal college entrance examination is bent on the ideal university, but failed. He did not reconciled, repeat the test, and lost again. This repeated for three or four years, finally, he finally admitted. People have said: Ah, really kung fu is not a conscientious.
I didn't understand what he meant by hearing this. As a result he looked at me and asked, "What should we say if this person is not admitted?" I guess: "Continue to encourage, waiting to say Kung fu is not a conscientious?" ”
"Wrong, actually very simple, people will say ' you see, this is stupid". He laughed at the end of the talk. I have to wait a few years to understand, crossing always have the right to evaluate, but in fact, "Kung Fu is not a conscientious person" and "stupid" may not even window paper, only to see how the individual face.
"Multi-use Google bar"
On the first day of my work, the project manager called me to say, "Let me tell you about JUnit, svn,ant, JBuilder usage, starting tomorrow." These four things I have not touched before, the first reaction is in the QQ with the classmate complained that the company is not human, the answer is "hurry to learn, earn, we do not let use it", so I have to bite the bullet all the way down ...
This is the first company I stayed "style", the new tools, frames are only throw a noun out, the project manager seems to be very impatient I asked the east--of course, when he really asked, his attitude is better. One day after work he saw me still frown on the face of the screen, said a "Don't worry, more Google bar."
For me at the time, that was the lifeline. If I had not been able to find a way to do "Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtles" because I had not been able to put face before, that night I was in the office frantically using Google to search, and finally found a clue around 1 o'clock in the morning. Outside the window is the dark Beijing city, but I seem to see the dawn. Since then, has also been infected with Google's "bad habits."
Now you can finally experiment with the company's money.
After working for a few years, I was often puzzled by the difference between what the company was doing and the direction it wanted to do, and worried that its value would not be improved, leaving the company with no advantage. One night I chatted with Horon (Virushuo) when he said that when he graduated, the teacher told them a very important word, "you can finally take the company's money to do the experiment." To enhance their value, not satisfied with the task assigned by the company, can not expect the sky will drop pies to allow themselves to add value, but should regard their work environment as a resource field, and strive to think what can be harvested from it.
In fact, we are in the company, apart from their own work, there are a lot of opportunities to learn, but also not limited to "take the company's hardware and software to do experiments." For example, think about what the industry will develop and based on reality, observe what each position is doing, how well-done colleagues have the methodology, and find foreign colleagues to chat and practise spoken English. These opportunities you seize, you can grow, do not seize, also wasted.
"The big flag does not fall, only then the opportunity"
When I left Beijing, I had a meal with Lao Xu (Xu Yijong), the boss of the shrimp net. At that time, Lao Xu has been doing beautiful said, but just beginning, there is too much uncertainty. During the dinner we talked a lot and talked about what a person should do.
Lao Xu said: The world's Skill is endless, the mastery is not complete, we keep to grasp these Skill, really have a sense of accomplishment? Not necessarily, but to find what you really want to do. Now there is a listed company asked me to do technical VP, the technology is to tube up, I certainly can do. But I still want to start a business, if I take this post and then start a business, what will everyone think? If I do not accept this position, catch the shrimp failed, I still want to start a business, even if the failure, I am in the outward flow of "Xu Yijong to start a business" information, like a banner has been standing there, and then there will be talent, funds, resources to me gathered here ...
I was often amazed at the persistence of Lao Xu, who had long wanted to make it clear that the cause of the brand was to be operated for an extended period of time. "Covet petty" is often not linked to morality, but with perseverance and courage.
A person, a lifetime meal is certain, bitterness is certain;
"Face your weaknesses, don't hide."
Before I left Beijing, I looked for my friends to eat a lap of rice, among them the teacher who taught me to cook Cao.
Originally, we just very casually chat, recall memories hair point feeling, to quickly eat finished when he suddenly Orthophoto told me: I have done so many years of food, have a little experience can tell you. Many people will be consciously or unconsciously to escape their own weaknesses, or become very sensitive, once others are raised to think more easily, it is easy to get excited, such people often can not become a major event. Listen to me, face your weaknesses, do not hide.
The more people I see, the more I experience, the more I feel that he is justified. "Day provinces" people may have their own weaknesses are very clear, do not do so people, probably a little vague feeling. How to put a flat attitude to their own weaknesses, is really a big test of life. Some people take ostrich policy, pretending that the problem does not exist, and that some people move in the wrong, avoid the guilty, and others jewelery and conceal their guilty. In short, are in hiding, are not healthy response.
What is the real healthy way? is to try to quit your emotions and look at your weaknesses objectively: Does the problem really exist? If it does exist, how serious is it? Do I have a way to improve it? If so, what should be done? If not, what will probably happen, I am ready to face? When others mention these weaknesses, how can I tell if they are unintentional or intentional? is unintentional how to ignore? How do you intend to face it? ...... It must be admitted that it is really embarrassing and even sad to face these problems at first, but growth often comes from making yourself sad and trying to overcome the sad process.
The advice and teachings that I've been impressed with.
