How to go from Amateur to Professional

How to go from Amateur to Professional

http://okdork.com/2012/08/23/how-to-go-from-amateur-to-professional/

I spent the weekend with David Deida. What a tornado!



Category: Entrepreneurship

One of the things he said that really resonated was about how does someone internalize and get really fucking good at something.
He shared a story of how 999 out of 1000 of Michaelangelo or Van Gogh’s art pieces were thrown away.
The public only saw the 1% that was their best.
There are 3 levels for being like them.
1- Amateur – You try something out and give up or do it occasionally
2- Hobbyist – You do it regularly and maybe make money but you don’t do it consistently
3- Professional – You are doing the work even when you don’t feel like doing it.
This was something Mike Tyson said as well when I saw him in New York.
He showed some of the top boxers ever. EVER!
Tyson mentioned how all of them lost at least one fight. BOOM.
That really stuck with me. The point that everyone starts somewhere and it’s the perseverance and practice that will separate out the winners from the losers.
What do you want to be?

Totally. Jordan said it best: http://youtu.be/GuXZFQKKF7A (I watch this video every few days just to remind me of the possibilities of human potential when you’re committed and never, ever give up).
("I've missed more than 9000 shots in my career. I've lost almost 300 games. 26 times, I've been trusted to take the game winning shot and missed. I've failed over and over and over again in my life. And that is why I succeed."
-- Michael Jordan)

I think the key here is definitely perseverance. We live in an age where anyone who is dedicated enough can become really good at almost anything but it takes a lot of perseverance. More than I think the majority of people are willing to put in.

Nice post Noah!

So freaking true. Most people just give up or don’t hit the gym the moment they don’t feel like it. Separates the 99% vs the 1%. What do you think pushes you beyond that? A bigger purpose?

Welcome back Noah! I do agree with this, I believe that if you are a goal oriented person with strong enough will, eventually you can achieve anything you want. But, as you said, the truth is that most people quit. Maybe we just don’t have strong enough reasons to make it through the tough days, other times maybe we are probably just lazy or scared I think.

Great post…I have a huge respect for talent that is born from perseverance.
Assuming that all talent happens naturally is such an easy trap to fall into. I find myself doing it when trying to rationalize perceived gaps in success.

I watch a lot of Mixergy interviews, and my favorite one is from a kid who merely hustled (albeit in a very deliberate, “lean startup” way) with almost no technical skills.

Nice to see this post from you, Noah.
There is much to be said about just surviving the initial ups and downs of tackling a new endeavor. It is apparent that winners don’t pack up and go home when things get tough.

I think the Apple v Samsung lawsuit has shown this, too. Device makers have put I’m a lot of time, money, prototypes, etc. and all we see is the very best. That’s not to say bad ideas were never made or designed… Persistence (not “settling”) pays off.

Noah! It’s great that you’re back! I had only just discovered your blog when I learned that you hadn’t been updating it. That put me off checking this out properly, but then today I thought I’d just get to your blog and read the stuff you’d put up ages ago and voila! You’re back! Keep it up!

I turned 39 recently and decided that I really wanted to shake things up and reinvent myself. I had let fear of failure and other things like that act as barrier to creating the kind of life I wanted for myself, but no more! So I started hustling… 3 solid weeks already and it keeps getting better. Turns out that dogged determination to do my best and keep going no matter how epic the failures would be, is all I needed to overcome fear and inertia.

Keep posting Noah, you’ve got a community here that wants to hang out with you.

Best regards to you all!

I like the 3 divisions – and that quote about Michelangelo. Whenever I go and see a really good band – I think about how many thousands of hours and thousands of shows they’ve done to get to where they are at – when no one was cheering and they really didn’t want to play that one song one more time.

As a trivial aside, OkDork and NevBlog were both highlighted in Google Reader. I clicked OkDork first.

Why I got Fired from Facebook (a $100 Million dollar lesson)

Why I got Fired from Facebook (a $100 Million dollar lesson)
Noah Kagan


http://okdork.com/2012/09/29/why-i-got-fired-from-facebook-a-100-million-dollar-lesson/

Can I be real with you? Real real?

(A note from Zuck)

I’m TIRED of answering this question so I’d rather write it out and just point people to this post.
Let me start in reverse.
I can tell you every detail of the day I got fired aka “let go” aka “down-sized” aka “shit-canned.”
I thought I was going to a routine coffee with my boss and randomly saw Matt Cohler sitting at the table inside (surprising)!
I knew something was amiss. Matt broke the news quickly and I was in dead-shock as the words came out of his mouth. They walked me back to the office and removed my laptop and my cell phone.
Then I proceeded to the Verizon store to use their phone, called my gf (at the time) and drove to the house I shared with 6 other FB guys.
Packed up all my stuff in my CRX, smoked a 1/2 pack of cigarettes on the balcony and drove to my friend Johnny’s place. It took me a bit to let my mom know and I slept on Johnny’s couch for a few days, thanks J!
Later that night we had a bbq at this place and everyone was asking me how the job was going….#awkward
I kept drinking that night to pass out and pray this was all a bad dream.
At that time, here’s the order of what was important in my life:
1- Facebook
2- Myself
3- Food / Shelter
4- My gf
5- Family
6- Friends
To spell it out. Facebook was my entire life.
My social circle, my validation, my identity and everything was tied to this company.
How the fuck could have ended up like this?
WTF! I just got a promotion and a raise 2 months before!
This was my first time being fired and it took me 1 year to get over the depression.
—————————————————————————————
After running AppSumo for over 2 years I’ve finally understood that Facebook made the right decision to let me go.
When you hire people there are three types of employees:
1- Grower. Someone who starts when the company is small and improves / adapts their skills as the company scales.
2- Show-er. Someone who can be good for the company where they are now but NOT where they are going.
3- Veteran. They’ve done it before and it’s second nature for them to teach you how to do it in your company.
I was a show-er at Facebook. I dealt with chaos of a 30 person company extremely well. (Did I mention my boss got fired on my first day and my next boss got fired 2 months after me?)
Most decisions were me walking over to Mark’s desk for approval, but at 150 people it was a group meeting of 30 people or me having to schedule time via Mark’s secretary.
I was a bit annoyed with the situation even though our memories always deceive us. Ever recall how you thought all the times with your ex-girl/boy friend were great but in reality there were a lot of shitty times…
The specific reasons I wasn’t able to adapt are as follows:
1- Selfish. I wanted attention, I put myself before Facebook. I hosted events at the office, published things on this blog to get attention and used the brand more than I added to it.
Lesson learned: The BEST way to get famous is make amazing stuff. That’s it. Not blogging, networking, etc.
2- Marketing. The marketing team’s plan was not to do anything and the night before we opened Facebook to the professional market (anyone with a @microsoft.com, @dell.com, etc…) I emailed TechCrunch to let Michael Arrington know to publish it in the morning. He ended up publishing it that night (I was at Coachella and will never again attend) before the actual product was released in the morning. I immediately notified the e-team and assumed full responsibility.
Lesson learned: I don’t think what I did was that wrong since the marketing team did not do anything to promote our new features. My lesson learned was more I should have involved them instead of just going around them.
3- Skills. As I said above when things needed to get done. I was there and shit got done. As we progressed to needing to organize massive spreadsheets and big group collaboration meetings, I zoned the F out and was then shortly out of the company.
Lesson learned: Go see if your weaknesses are hindering you at your job. Ie. I wasn’t great at planning or product management at this time. Fix them or move to another position. Also, constantly ask yourself how can I make the company more valuable. You do that and you will never get fired*. *unless you do something really stupid or the company goes out of business.
Each human on Earth has super powers. I’ve realized mine are execution, sales, marketing, eating tacos and throwing in occasional jokes.
As I’ve gotten older I’m more patient, a bit better at planning and able to work better with larger groups. Would I be a great fit for product management at Facebook now, likely; would I ever work there again, Frick No.
Ultimately, when I’m hiring now I’m looking for people who have gone to the promised land and can come back and teach us. They’ve built certain things, done the marketing we need to know, etc…
Matt Cohler (early LinkedIn, FB and now Partner at Benchmark) called me a “liability” as they let me go that day in the coffee shop on University Avenue.
This has scarred me and I’ve worked hard to be an asset to the companies I start and people I’m involved with. Thanks Matt!
A few key things I’ve learned after letting people go from AppSumo:
1- It stings the person WAY more than the company. I thought every day that the company missed me but I’ve learned they just keep going on with business. AND (UN)FORTUNATELY most businesses get better. So be stern when letting someone go but be reasonable and thoughtful to how it must feel. I encourage everyone to get fired once so they know that feeling. It’s unbelievable and something to definitely learn from.
2- EVERYONE is replaceable. You are NOT special and there is guaranteed someone better than you on this planet. So be the opposite, find the way to be invaluable where you work. This doesn’t mean locking things into you but opening things up so you are trusted and subsequently valued more.
3- Most people when they get let go, they know it’s time. They may not want to accept what their subconscious tells them but they know it’s right and it opens them up to something better. Instead of throwing them away, help guide / work with them to see what is their true calling and better suited for them.
People hear me speak or see my resume as awesome experiences but the details / depth of them is the interesting / meaty part.
Being at Facebook is where I grew the most professionally. I’ve NEVER been around such smart people. I’ve never felt so consistent like I wasn’t the smartest person in the room.
So all this combined ended up costing me around $100,000,000. It is what it is. Ultimately, I appreciate where I am now and all the experiences I got from NOT being there.
A true measure of an entrepreneur / successful-person is how they deal with adversity.
As my high school drama teacher told me the day I ran crying off the stage, “it’s not the outcome but learning from the experience that really counts….”

貴人不一定是好人

【貴人不一定是好人】（轉）

FB:Joseph Wang分享 

好不容易爭取到這個工讀的機會，她很珍惜。剛開始的時候，她做得很賣力、很帶勁﹔沒想到，幾個月之後，竟愈來愈發現自己的熱情，已經大不如前。甚至，還一度想：「乾脆辭職算了！」若非為了負擔自己的生活費及註冊費，她真的不願意這樣耗下去。

男友知道她的困擾，特別利用午休時間來「探班」，為她加油打氣。

兩個人約在辦公室樓下見面，男友驚奇地說：「從外表看起來，我覺得你們公司還不錯嘛！沒有你講的那麼糟耶！辦公室裝潢很高雅，同事也都人模人樣，態度很親切，可以感覺到她們素質都很高。」

「是啊！我沒說她們不好。」午餐的時候，她帶著遺憾的口氣說：「這裡真的是什麼都好，就是主管不好。」

她娓娓道來，說出主管的十大罪狀。 包括：脾氣不好、對手下的人態度也不好﹔交辦事情不說清楚，等到發現同仁做錯了，又把責任一股腦兒地推給別人﹔對部屬很嚴格、但沒有人知道他的標準究竟在哪裡？ ...... 等洋洋灑灑。

體貼的男友，投以同情的眼光，安慰她說：「寶貝，你真可憐，要好好忍耐喔！我相信你在這種人下面工作，如果能夠撐得過去，將來就再也不會碰到比他更壞的人囉！」

雖然明明就知道這只是一句安慰的話，但因為他真地講得很誠懇，於是她欣然接受，並且認真的放在心上好好咀嚼。傍晚下班了，快要上課前，她打電話給男友：「謝謝你喔！這麼忙還利用中午時間來看我，真是超感動呢！而且，我想了一下午，覺得你講得話很有道理，事實真的就是這樣，我應該學會用另一個角度來看事情。」

經過思考，她發現男友所講的，並不只是一句純粹安慰的話而已，一件事情本來就有不同的角度，負面的另一面，就是正面啊！上學的路上，她想著想著，在心裡發出微笑。

比她早幾年進入社會工作的男友，已經是個成熟的上班族了，經歷過的惡老闆，數目不可細數，他也曾感到有志難伸、也曾為此灰心喪氣，甚至為了一位很不講理的老闆，一氣之下主動辭職，放棄一份他很喜歡的工作。但後來想想，他都覺得很可惜，大可不必如此。「三人行，必有我師！」人沒有十全十美，主管也有好有壞，何必拿別人的缺點來折磨自己。

「見賢思齊，見不賢而內自省！」理當如此吧！

從好主管身上，可以學習經營管理的智慧、領導統禦的方法，在壞主管身上可以體驗到管理不當的教訓、避凶趨吉的秘訣。當她與我分享這些見解時，我感同身受。也體認到年輕人在社會上工作，急於找到一位值得學習的導師，在平時可以作為自己學習的典範，在特別的時刻，可以助自己一臂之力，提攜拉拔。

美國知名 NBC 主播瑪莉亞史力佛在「你早該知道的十件事」文中敘述：「上天在你的人生旅途上安排各種恩師。也許她們和你的相貌不同、聲音不同，也許她們都不是你期望的類型。但重點是，她們的見聞比你淵博，這就是你應該向她們學習的理由。如果你到現在還沒發現恩師，那也沒關係，只要張大眼睛，恩師一定會和你相逢，將會傳授你必須學習的經驗教訓。」
這個說法很有道理，還有特別值得強調的一點是：並不是每一個導師，都是慈眉善目型的人。

我也曾和很兇的主管共事過，要求很多、標準很高，甚至到了不近情理的地步。年輕的時候，比較不懂事，有時候心底會冒出很負面的念頭：「他為什麼特別愛找麻煩？」但因為我的個性比較逆來順受，為了保住飯碗，也不敢太率性地輕舉妄動，過一段時間的觀察及調整，我才體會到另一個道理：青面獠牙型的主管，也可能是生涯發展的貴人。

一位在外商公司工作的資深女性經理告訴我：「貴人，不一定是好人。」

她的觀點，於我心有戚戚焉。就像軍隊中，有所謂的「魔鬼班長」一樣，有些領導人，平常不苟言笑，對紀律要求甚高。但是他很有心要把整個團對帶起來，所有的手段都是為了大家好，在嚴格訓練的過程中，看起來非常冷酷、不帶感情，難以親近。他甚至會個別地針對不同的人，挑剔出各種缺點，直到通過所有的考驗為止。

接受磨練時，沒有人會說他是好人﹔但通過磨練之後，大家都會說他是貴人。

貴人，不一定是好人﹔壞人，也不全都可以變成貴人。關鍵在於他到底是怎麼個「壞」法，而你又是怎麼個「想」法。

就像是小古巴古丁與勞勃狄尼洛合演的電影「怒海潛將」，最後讓小古巴古丁成功的關鍵就在於長官的嚴格訓練與激勵，讓他成為一名潛水員。

德國青年蔔勞恩，又一次失業了。

滿大街轉了一圈，也沒有找到工作。情緒極度低落的蔔勞恩去酒吧坐了半天，直到將身上最後一塊錢換了酒喝下肚後，才拖著疲憊的身軀回家。

可是，家裡也不是天堂，他寄予厚望的兒子”克利斯蒂安”並沒有給他爭氣，他的成績居然比上學期還退步了。

他狠狠地瞪了”克利斯蒂安”一眼，再也不想跟他說話，便回到自己的房間呼呼大睡了。
...

當蔔勞恩醒來的時候，已是第二天早上。

他習慣性地拿起筆補寫昨天的日記：
5月6日，星期一，真是個倒楣的日子，工作沒找到，錢花光了，更可氣的是兒子又考砸了，這樣的日子還有什麼盼頭？


蔔勞恩來到兒子的房間，打算叫兒子起床，但”克利斯蒂安”早已經自己上學去了。就在此時，蔔勞恩突然發現兒子的日記本忘記鎖進抽屜了。

於是他便忍不住好奇，看了起來：
5月6日，星期一，這次考試不太理想，但我晚上將著個消息告訴爸爸的時候，他卻沒有責備我，而是深情地盯著我看了一會兒，使我深受鼓舞，我決定努力學習，爭取下次考好，不辜負爸爸的期望。


怎麼會是這樣呢，自己明明是惡狠狠地瞪了兒子一眼，怎麼變成深情地盯著他看了一會呢？


蔔勞恩好奇地翻看起兒子以前的日記：
5月5日星期天，山姆大叔的小提琴拉得越來越好了，我想，有機會我一定要去請教他，讓他教我拉小提琴。

蔔勞恩又是一驚，趕緊拿起自己的日記本來看：
5月5日，星期天，這個該死的山姆，又在拉他的破提琴，本想多睡一會兒，又被他吵得不安生。如果再這樣下去，我非報警沒收了他的破提琴不可。


蔔勞恩跌坐在椅子上，半天無語，他不知道從什麼時候起，他已變得如此悲觀厭世，煩躁不安，難道自己對生活的承受力還不如一個小孩子嗎？從此，蔔勞恩變得積極和開朗起來。


他日記裡的內容也完全變了：
5月7日，星期二，今天又找了一天工作，雖然還是沒哪家單位聘請我，但我從應聘的過程中學到不少東西，我想，只要總結經驗，明天我一定能找到一份滿意的工作。

5月8日，星期三，今天我終於找到工作了，雖然是一份鉗工的工作。但我想，我一定能成為世界上最出色的鉗工。


他，就是德國著名漫畫巨匠埃‧奧‧蔔勞恩。
蔔勞恩於1903年3月18日生於德國”福格蘭特”山區，曾經在工廠當過鉗工，給報刊畫過漫畫，為書籍畫過插圖。而最廣為人知的是他的連環畫《父與子》。


後來有人問蔔勞恩：「聽說您是因為一本日記改變了觀念，並成了大師的嗎？」

蔔勞恩說：「是的，確實是因為一本日記，但需要申明的是，那個大師不是我，真正的大師是我的兒子——克利斯蒂安。」


‧儒家認為人的地位高低，不是由財富決定的，而是由他的道德水平和學問高低決定的。要提高自己的道德和學問就要不斷的學習。



【板主思】看人優點，則你是聚寶盆，若看人的缺點，就只是個垃圾桶了！因此凡事多往好處想、關心比責罵更能激勵子女向上之心！

那是正面看法 負面看法 "別人就是看你沒 要不然要怎麼樣呢! 有錢好辦事" "人就是不會面對現實"夠現實吧!

常常觀注他人優點，讚美他人優點 。
相對的，也是在凈化自己的心。
讓這世界充滿良善循環。

最近公司課程中正好提到「成功建立在良好品格之上」，品格在某方面代表著正向積極的人生觀，最近每每遇到問題時，就試著用正向思維，效果很不錯都是好的結果居多，就算結果不如預期，心情也較不受影響。

感人和积极的话：今天我終於找到工作了，雖然是一份鉗工的工作。但我想，我一定能成為世界上最出色的鉗工。

 心靈的微火，千萬別弄熄了！

人可以對一件事情有正面的看法及樂觀的態度面對。小孩子真誠的心，更是我們大人學習的對像。

拿掉你的專業，你剩什麼？

FB:生活智慧王
http://www.facebook.com/LivingKing

【拿掉你的專業，你剩什麼？】

一個竹科高階主管，年薪200萬的大哥分享。

當我的女朋友告訴我，要走出來學習成長、找備胎時，

我心想：我的工作這麼好了，還要出來學什麼，找什麼備胎。

 

我的老師，看到了我看不到的危機，便告訴我『你的工作非常的好，但是拿掉你的專業，你剩什麼？』

 

他講了一個故事：

有一隻海螺，常看到漁夫拿著長長的釣竿要釣他，每當他看到這危機時，他的頭就縮進去他認為十分安全的殼內，躲避一切。
 

隔了幾天，他想伸出頭來看看風景，呼吸一下空氣。

他突然發現…周遭環境變的都不太一樣了，他身處在一家海產店，外面標價：50元。

我就像這個海螺，遇到困難，都躲起來。我們在老闆眼中，也只是一個價錢。

我的老師又說：在順境時找出路比在逆境時找退路還來的簡單。

在我上班的公司，若有一個人要升遷，要三位主管聯合視訊開會，其中一位主管得報告為何要讓他升遷，有2/3 的人通過，那個被提名的人才可以升遷。
 

上個月，我有位部屬因為工作表現不佳，副總一句話，他就走路。

升遷要很多人同意，可是離職卻只是一個人講，就得走。

我們的未來就掌握在一個人的二片薄薄的嘴唇上。但是透過不斷的學習，我讓我的未來掌握在自已手中。

他說：如果你認為你是個人才，那你要放在對的舞台，不然老闆會把你當木材燒。

早在多年前，誰想的到遠航、亞力山大、力霸衣蝶會倒！

 

如果一年以後，你被迫馬上離開這裡，你有多少優勢能讓你快速轉換理想跑道？

如果十年以後，你被迫中年失業，你那時剩多少優勢能與新世代競爭 ?

了解趨勢才能找到自己的優勢 !!!

所有的優勢，只能維持半年

英特爾裁員五千人，讓我不禁又嚇出一堆冷汗，這些人，領著高薪，擁有著人人稱羨的頭銜上班時，可曾想到會有這一天。

到底是為什麼？難道他們的專業有問題嗎？能在這些知名企業上班的起碼都有兩把刷子。
 

曾經有個台灣記者訪問『窮爸爸與富爸爸』的作者：「我想要在我的工作上更進一層樓，我是否應該去精進我的英文能力嗎？」，這位作者回答他：「難道紐約街頭的乞丐，英文能力比你差嗎？」。

很顯然，不是專業上的問題，這也是多數人始料未及的，總以為只要不斷的精進專業知識，就可立於不敗之地。可惜趨勢不斷地在改變。

MOTOROLA 總代理商的楊貫一，他舉了一個例子：

 

『一家生產筆記型的電腦公司，因獲利短少，轉而生產手機』。

短短一句話，對公司來說，只是關掉一個獲利少的生產線，而增加一個獲利高的生產線而已。對當初幫老闆賺進大把銀子的工程師，卻要面臨被裁撤的命運。

『在２０年前，你所擁有的優勢，可以用５年』；

『在１０年前，你所擁有的優勢，可以用２年』；

『而現在，你所擁有的優勢，只能維持半年』！

朋友，用你現在所擁有的能力還能用多久？

有句話說的好：『人要活到老，學到老，而不要活到老，做到老』

很多人說學習啊，沒時間啦！千萬不要等到你有時間，卻來不及的時候就太晚了！

 

改變別人.不如先改變自己

 

 

 

入生沒有安全,只有向前.

提升技能也很重要。。

我的專業拿掉了 我還有學習能力

 

真怪的文章！
沒了專業，當然剩不專業呀，不然剩什麼？
請問這年頭，真正以自己專業在工作賺錢的比例有多少？
地球上有70多億人，一個倒下，隨時會有數以萬計人想接手。
專業？請問地球上有什麼專業是不能被取代的？且越高深的，越是團隊合作型，那時，一個人在裡面，又算什麼？
真的要專業？還不如更會待人處事的重要！
專業??難到是自以為是數千個"特殊及有用的專利"集一人呀, 若是再來自以為是不怕不景氣..!!

 

很好的故事...活到老學到老~這是很精典不變的道理!一眛只停留在自己覺得舒服的領域,是很危險的事!年營業額五億人民的大老闆也還在看書很謙虛的學習中呢!多看書可改變不同的思維ㄛ!!

 

不只專業，要多方面！

 

我面試過畢業於柏克萊的人,也面試過畢業於沒沒無聞專科的人,但最後決定是取決於求職者的專業能力.活到老，學到老,最後講的還是專業,只是看你專精在哪個領域或幾個領域.所以拿掉專業,最重要的還是專業,除非你天生命好.

 

想想郭台銘和王永慶學歷不高卻可建立富可敵國的企業。話說時勢造英雄，現況很難出其右但仍值得借鏡

 

知訊豐富.產業生態的變遷很快.寫得很實在

答案並不在專業或好命與否，而在「當和尚遇到鑽石2」，真的，看完就有答案了!
