The difference between the master and the average person (the gap between the average person and the master)

I once saw a question on a question-and-answer platform: anonymous, in his twenties, graduated from 985 University majoring in finance, and his English is good. After graduation, she worked in a general enterprise and was later dismissed. She turned to netizens for help on how to choose the next employment direction.

The lady listed several options: one is to engage in the securities industry, the other is to engage in English translation, or to be an English teacher. However, she has neither securities qualification nor relevant financial experience. Although my English is good, I have no translation certificate, no teacher qualification certificate and no relevant experience.

That is to say, although she seems to have many choices, in fact, none of them can be done right away. Although there is skill, it is still far from the major. It seems that you can do it with a little foundation. In fact, none of these options exist.

In real life, it seems that there are not a few people with similar ideas, which has to make people reflect. In the final analysis, mastery is not equal to mastery, and hobbies are not equal to professionalism.

Einstein often went to various places to give lectures, and every time his driver followed him under the stage. Over time, the driver fell backwards.

Once, the driver said to Einstein, I have memorized all the contents of your speech. If I give you a speech on the stage, I will definitely say it word for word. Hearing this, Einstein asked him to go up and defend himself.

The driver's speech was very successful. Just as he was triumphantly preparing to step down, a man's question stopped him. He had a brainwave and said that my driver could answer this question. Einstein answered questions for him, and the audience applauded.

This time, the driver convinced Einstein that I can only be a driver and you are the real scientist.

As the saying goes, amateurs watch the excitement and experts watch the doorway. Some things seem simple, and many people mistakenly think that the threshold is very low and anyone can do it. But in fact, any profession has a threshold.

Profession and ability are two concepts. For example, the threshold for writing is relatively low, and everyone can try to write. However, the writing level of an amateur writer must be better than those who have been writing for a long time. Because the gap between experts and ordinary people is often invisible.

The difference between experts and ordinary people is that they spend different time on one thing.

Xiao Wei, the founder of Weilong Culture, once told a story about her experience in a speech. Every time she goes out to talk about her game industry, she is often asked that there is a child in my relative's house who likes playing games very much. Can you introduce him as a professional player?

In anyone's view, games are killing time, anyone can play them, and only those who like to play games can enter the e-sports industry. But this is actually a misunderstanding of professional e-sports players.

Because an e-sports player is not only good at playing games, but also has to practice like an athlete. He may need to practice day and night for a long time for an action. Maybe he can only use this hero in every game or practice. This kind of exercise is actually very boring, and it is difficult for ordinary people to stick to it.

If you want to stay in the e-sports industry for a long time, you must have professionalism and constantly hone your skills. This professionalism has long gone beyond simple hobbies and turned into a practice that tests perseverance and patience.

Therefore, with the progress of professional e-sports players, their income will also rise. The income gap between players of different levels is very obvious. The income level also directly explains the gap between the king and bronze.

Masters are masters because they continue to invest a lot of time and energy in one thing. They practice deliberately day after day, fail again and again, and strive for perfection step by step. The time and energy invested finally became their strength. Amateur and professional meet, the advantages and disadvantages are self-evident.

The gap between experts and ordinary people lies in their different attitudes.

Dr. Saya worked as an assistant for several photographers before he became famous. But he soon found that he was not suitable for this job of taking pictures according to others' wishes. So he quit his job and embarked on the road of independent photographer.

He went to the new york Museum of Natural History with photographic equipment on his back. In fact, the museum does not allow commercial photography. He can only fight guerrilla warfare with the administrator. After that, he took his works to new york Museum of Modern Art to sell them door to door.

For lofty artists, self-promotion is still very fall in price, but Hiroshi Sugimoto doesn't care. On this point, in the book leye county, Hiroshi Sugimoto also explained.

He said that no artist should wait for others to take the initiative to do bole, and everyone should think about their own unique way to join the WTO.

In order to walk on the road of photography for a long time, he kept putting pressure on himself. Hiroshi Sugimoto established a cultural foundation, which was funded by his photography income. If you want to maintain the foundation, you must ensure that your works always sell well, and you must continue to create new works.

In any case, this is a desperate gamble. However, Hiroshi Sugimoto also gained lasting creativity. Later, his photographic works auctioned off the highest price record in Asia, and no one can break this record so far.

Hiroshi Sugimoto is often asked what to do if the movies are almost sold out. His answer is simple, just make yourself an inventor.

Masters are often very enthusiastic, positive and even aggressive in what they like. They are so absorbed in one thing that they won't stop until they reach their goal.

Just like Hiroshi Sugimoto, he devoted all his enthusiasm after he decided to embark on a career as a photographer. He is a very enterprising person. He will go up if he can, and create conditions if he can't. He is always looking for opportunities for progress and trying his best to bring his full potential into play.

The master is almost pious about his ideal, and will work hard for it at all costs to create opportunities to make it come true. And this is what ordinary people who have tasted lack.

There is a saying circulating on the internet. After listening to a lot of truth, I still have a bad life. In fact, we just heard these truths, but didn't really understand and do them. If we don't let them become sharp weapons in our lives, we will get nothing.

Takashi Saito, a Japanese professor, once lamented that it is not an exaggeration to spend a few more hours studying every day to achieve a lifelong career. However, many young people are unwilling to pay even at this time.

In fact, many people lack the ability to negotiate with themselves and cannot convince themselves to work hard and change. Therefore, after tomorrow's day-to-day sustenance, it will go away.

Zeng Guofan said that people's hearts are bitter and things are prosperous.

A master was once an ordinary person before he became a master. It is only because they are willing to work hard, endure hardships, sacrifice, pay and change that they gradually walk in front of ordinary people and win more respect and choices.

So, don't wait until there is no other choice to start changing. Don't watch the opportunity slip away and regret that you didn't prepare in advance.

All the time and energy you put into the future will eventually feed back to yourself.
