A classmate asked this question in Zhihu “ What to do if you are squeezed by old programmers ？”, A simple answer , Let's talk about this in depth today , Tell me what I think , Welcome to leave a message to discuss .

 

The original question ：

9 In the month , From the former colleagues pushed into a company to do Android Development , In the first week of work, my colleagues asked me to help him with outsourcing and private work . Because he pushed me in , I'm sorry to say no . After helping him for a few days , He didn't say that he would pay me for outsourcing , I'm too embarrassed to talk , It's like other people's feelings . But then he called me at the end of the week and asked me to do outsourcing for him , I'm sorry to say no , Two weeks ago, he asked me to outsource , I was very tired after a day's work , I don't want to go home and stay up late , So he refused , After that, he stopped talking to me . After that, he gave me all the needs of the company's projects that he could push to me , Of course, I was like this when I first came here , More than a dozen needs, he only made two , All the rest is for me . As soon as he has time, he does outsourcing projects on the workstation , I do most of the company's projects . These two weeks , He put all the work on me , He's in charge of the business module bug Let me change , I was responsible for the change bug It's all from him before , I'm really tired . At the end of the day, he changed the background color , Adjusted the size of the picture .

Golden Circle thinking

The Golden Circle rule was first put forward by advertising industry practitioners . Actually , The Golden Circle rule is a universal way of thinking . Most people （ For example, this classmate ） They are the first to see the phenomenon , And then think about coping strategies , Only a few people think about the motives and reasons behind it . And in the Golden Circle rule , Importance and priorities are from the inside out , namely why > how > what.

That is to say , From why Let's go , Think about your goals first 、 idea 、 Vision , Find out what you really want in your heart . And then it's for your own purposes , How to make decisions 、 Action . What was done in the end , What did you get , What has been abandoned . After mastering the Golden Circle rule , Whether it's programmers doing requirements , Or dealing with relationships , The first thing to think about is why. If you put why I understand ,how and what Basically, naturally .

 

 

why Why do you work

Using the Golden Circle rule , Think about it first why, That is to say , Why do we do this job ？

There may be thousands of answers to this question , Of course, I know everyone's dream is not to work . This student was pushed into the company because he wanted to do more projects , Enhance experience , Get approval from the company , In order to get a promotion and a raise , Make the career path smoother . So , All efforts should be based on this goal .

Even if it's a million miles away from the goal , Also find the way to it . The student has politely refused the request of his colleague , Next, we can try to talk to the leaders about the problems we have encountered , Don't mention the colleague's question , It can be said that their workload is too heavy , The schedule can't be arranged , Then follow the schedule , The leader will surely find out his problems .

 

how How to work

Using the Golden Circle rule , Think again how, That is to say , How we work ？

We should pay attention to ways and methods in our work , Wrong direction will be buried .

The greatest value of programmers , It's using technology to solve problems for society 、 Create value . Internet technology solves the problem of information exchange and interconnection , E-commerce solves the problem of commodity circulation efficiency , Instant messaging solves the problem of people to people interconnection ,ERP It solves the efficiency problem of enterprise management , You see , All valuable and profitable projects are solving problems . Use technology to solve problems , To create value , To make money .

The previous article also talked about , For programmers ,30 It's especially important before age . The most important point , Is to improve the ability to solve problems . Think of problem solving as an opportunity , Take the improvement of problem solving ability as the top priority . Is it important to postpone a project ？ If you've figured it out why, Well, put it bluntly , It doesn't matter if the project is postponed , It's important to improve one's ability .（ Don't talk to your boss or leader , They're in different positions , The butt decides the head . Don't blame me for not reminding me when I'm beaten ）.

 

what What do you get from your work

Continue with the Golden Circle rule , Finally, think about what, That is to say , What do we get from our work ？

Pay attention to reward in work , There's no payoff , It can't be for public welfare .

The ancients said that you can get what you sow , Grow beans and get beans . If you can continue to improve your problem solving skills , Then to a certain stage , You'll have a chance to be an expert or a manager . Because it can solve the problem , It will be solved further, more 、 Bigger 、 Precious opportunities for more difficult problems , And then grow further , We have further improved our ability , That is to say, we have entered a virtuous circle . Next , Be a friend of time , In this virtuous circle, go back and forth , You're going to be a great guy .

It's a fair society now , As long as you have the ability to , It's not hard to make money . It's not easy to cross class , But after all, you can imagine .

At a certain stage , The personal level is quite high , There will be companies digging you up , If there is the right opportunity , There may be more room for development . Even if there is no company digging , You can start your own business .

How much can I get , I'm not sure . Because I'm not here yet 30 Year old , There's a lot of uncertainty in the future , But I've achieved a little bit of what I used to do .

 

Business is a circle

why -> how -> what, It's not fixed .how To make decisions , Be sure to think about why, And then there's a sub branch . One what It's over , You have to think about something new why, Keep going back and forth . As Robert Qingqi said in rich dad's book , Generate income through assets , The proceeds are used to buy assets , Asset growth , And then further generate revenue , It's a virtuous circle . If the golden circle is used well , It's also a virtuous circle . A good career is what you get in circles .

 

Why are you confused

A lot of people I've met haven't thought about why, It's from what Let's go . here we are 30 Year old pass , A lot of confused and confused .

It is common to choose a job after graduation , Only to earn money to support themselves , Or depending on the path of your major , Or listen to the teacher first employment after the nonsense . I don't know why I work , Nature doesn't know how to choose , It's a bit of a dream to get a huge return from work .30 I'm so confused that I'm tired of working , There's no future , There's not enough money to spend , The root of the problem is 30 Before the age of .

If you have a good degree , We can still rely on social development and halo effect to make a passive progress . But in the long run , I don't know why, It's easier to bury .
