Is the pursuit of career because of professional interest or professional emotion?

1. Most people's interests can't develop into professional abilities.

Many people don't understand interest, thinking that interest is what we like to do. In fact, interest is different from interest.

Interest can be divided into consumption type and production type:

Consumer interest:? It's just a hobby of entertaining yourself and having no output.

Many people's interests are eating delicious food, reading, traveling, surfing the Internet, listening to songs and watching movies, which are basically consumer hobbies.

Consumer interest has no output, so skills are not needed.

production interest: hobby of exporting.

For example, writing, photography, speaking, singing, painting, musical instruments, etc. These hobbies can have an impact on others.

Productive interests often require the active participation of brain thinking and call your creativity. Because productive interest is required, in order to produce good works, you need to spend your brain thinking and be willing to study in order to improve.

Consumer interests can be transformed into production: for example, reading can be transformed into writing reading notes, watching movies can be transformed into writing film reviews, and traveling can output photo albums and travel notes.

Therefore, it is obvious that only the interest in production can develop into a career, but many people's interests remain at the consumption level and cannot be transformed into related skills.

2. Interest can't get enough income

Occupation is the main way for a person to get income.

To be a career, it requires that your ability must reach the professional level, you can provide value and get recognition from others, and you can get enough remuneration. This can be called a career.

The difference between amateur and professional is beyond the imagination of ordinary people. Amateurs only need to perform well occasionally, while professionals need stable and continuous high-quality performance.

Many people's interest ability stays at the amateur level, so they can't compete with the practitioners in the industry and get enough income, so they can't take their interest as a career.

In modern society, the division of labor is extremely detailed, and people's needs are diversified. The Internet has improved the efficiency of information transmission, and users can be found in almost all specialties. As long as you are professional enough, there is no market for your interests.

Therefore, only when your professional ability reaches or even exceeds the professional level can you take interest as a career.

Conclusion:

To take interest as a career, you need to have a productive interest first, and then continuously cultivate your interest ability to a professional level. Those who succeed by taking interest as their career are outstanding in their ability in interest without exception.

Therefore, the gap between interest and occupation is the gap of professional ability.
