As long as you can accumulate a little bit of horizontal jump advantage every time, you will find that the thing that was far away before is now close at hand.
Everyone has the opportunity to go up, but what people think of as "opportunity" may be a little trick in a specific scenario. This is what people want to spy on most, thinking that learning a trick can win other people at the key point. Many people call such things "dry goods". In fact, this specific little "skill" is like the endgame in chess. You have to play the right scene to have the opportunity to apply it. If the scene does not appear exactly the same, you have to lose the game that should be lost, so it seems that you can't learn it. In fact, it doesn't help a person's chess strength much.
On the whole, the upward movement must be a long-term thing. As long as the thinking is adjusted to the right direction and the right things are done for a long time, the whole trend of life will be steadily upward.
But the rewards brought by long-term persistence are long-term, after all, is there any shortcut that most people can use? There must be. When you already know how to use the right thinking to base, let me share a shortcut that many people need: Repeated horizontal jumps.
Many people have been taught by their parents and teachers since childhood that they should work hard in one place, from soldier to squad leader, from squad leader to platoon leader, from platoon leader to company commander, from company commander to battalion commander... all the way up, depending on ability , depends on hard work, depends on luck, and the rest depends on fate. But have you found that after many celebrities are specially recruited into the army, they can quickly have a high level in the army?
You start with a street stall and hope that one day your business will be bigger. This is the way. But have you found that if you're a star or an artist or even just a local celebrity, you don't even need to know a business to meet a super successful entrepreneur and get deeply involved in some of his projects?
We all meet some friends in our daily life, some are more successful than us, some are not as successful as we are. Those who are more successful than us are probably much more successful than our work leaders, but they are willing to be friends with us, and our work leaders don't necessarily feel that we are on an equal footing.
The reason is simple, vertical comparison is easy. In his eyes, I am your leader, that is, higher than you. But horizontal comparison is difficult. Do you say that the director of the police station is more powerful, or the owner of a chain enterprise with 28 stores has more social energy?
If I were the owner of a chain business, I could have an equal relationship with the owner of a large company. But if there is no boss as a reference, a certain executive of this big company can also interact with me on an equal footing, but it is difficult for the boss and the executive to interact equally with each other, because there are several levels of difference in rank.
So have you discovered any secrets? Your upward plan can sometimes be accomplished with multiple horizontal jumps, taking advantage of the "difficult side-to-side comparison between fields" feature.
For example, it is often difficult for a person to be a supervisor in a large Internet company when he wants to be promoted directly to a higher level. At this time, a smaller company just happened to lack a director in that business. Do you think the director of a big Internet company is more senior, or the director of a smaller company is more senior? You can't compare horizontally, and you can't even call it a promotion if you jump over it.
When you make achievements in the position of director, the position of vice president of another Internet company may beckon to you. It is still a horizontal jump, and no one is more senior than the other. Within the company or when the company level is the same, you can see at a glance whether it is a promotion or a leveling, but if it is a horizontal jump, many things are blurred, and there is room for easy progress.
If you feel that a certain road is not the one you want to take, but it is easier for you to take that road, and when it comes to your achievements, it is not easy to compare with the original road, then You can choose first, and then start looking for opportunities to jump horizontally after a little bit of upward movement. As long as you can accumulate a little bit of horizontal jump advantage every time, you will find that the thing that was far away before is now close at hand.
