Case: turning for interest

Ling Ling was a teacher in the city key middle school for three years in order to get to Shanghai for his hukou.

In many people's eyes, this is a good job, stability, cold summer vacation, drought and flood protection.

But Ling Ling has been unable to find the passion of his work: he feels that the environment of the school is too closed, and the distance between himself and the outside world is more and more far away, and every day is repeated work, and he can not gain progress.

She wants to see the wonderful world outside, hoping to undertake a challenging job and constantly learn new knowledge in her work.

After understanding the relevant contents of the profession and industry, she aims to become a consultant in the headhunting industry.

However, due to lack of relevant work experience, she received only a notice from a headhunting company.

The scale of the company is small, and its income is even lower than she is now.

Nevertheless, she accepted the job.

Many friends find it hard to understand.

But Lingling feels that she likes this job. She can reach many senior and senior talents in all walks of life, a lot of information, broaden her horizons and thinking, and make herself grow fast.

Although the income is relatively low, there will be more room for development.

Because she likes, she has invested a lot of time and energy.

It turns out that she is right in changing her interests, not only physically and mentally, but in just two years her income, social circle and way of life are all out of proportion, even beyond her original expectations.

Enhance occupational adaptability

When you do your favorite job and face setbacks and difficulties, you will complain less and have more determination and courage to solve problems.

When YAHOO founder Yang Zhiyuan visited the "dialogue" program, the audience asked him the most important condition for starting a business. He said he loved it.

He said he never met an entrepreneur who didn't like what he was doing.

Entrepreneurship is very bitter, and there are few opportunities for success. If there is no love and hard work, there can be no chance of success.

Turn interest into occupation

Vocational interest is the foundation of job satisfaction, occupational stability and career achievement, and has a strong driving effect on human behavior. Therefore, it is necessary to pform professional interest into real occupation and try to engage in interesting work.

If you have a job now, you can decide whether you are interested in your current job through the following little exercise.

Practice: are you interested in your current job?

1) my current career seldom makes me feel bored.

2) my current career makes me energetic and excited.

3) when I go to work, I seldom look at my watch and wait for work.

4) because work is too much investment, sometimes it is completely unknown.

5) my colleagues think I am a workaholic.

6) I feel fortunate to be engaged in this interesting and personal career.

7) even if I have achieved financial freedom, I may still choose my current career.

If you have 5 or more answers, Congratulations, no change of occupation. The focus of your development is on how to get a raise in this job.

If there are fewer than 5 affirmative answers and your age is below 30, you may consider changing your occupation.

To change careers, we must have a comprehensive understanding of the existing typical occupations and work contents, identify what career they like, and then judge whether they have the key requirements for these occupations, and if so, how to win these jobs.

We must be brave enough to try new things. After all, we can try to find new interest in our career.

With a wider range of vocational interests, there will be more room for career choice.
