Stop being obsessed with craftsmanship, bro.

On the way home on November 1st to pass the time, I watched a few movies on MP4, including "Jobs".

I bought the book "Steve Jobs" last year. Comrade Lao Qiao's biography came out soon after driving the crane to the west. The original author seems to be quite awesome. It is said that he has written a lot of biographies of great characters - but I read the version that has been Chineseized, and I feel like reading it. ——There are too many events and too many characters (especially the names of foreigners are too long to remember), so the whole thing is just like a running account. Maybe this is the characteristic of books such as biographies, so it will be soon Sheltered.

Then a movie was soon made, but there has been no movement. In the United States, it was reported that the film was relatively bad and the box office was very poor. Then it was moved to China for the screening and the lead actor came over. I often see advertisements for the film when I take the subway. It is said that the protagonist Ashton is still a lenovo employee who endorses Windows phones. Speaking of which, I wonder if Uncle Qiao will climb out of the cemetery to find her to settle accounts.

Because I have read the book, I know most of the content, so when I watch the film, I know what I'm talking about - in this case, the whole film feels quite smooth, and I don't think it's too bad.
It's just that the rhythm is a bit tight, and the whole process is relatively bland, without any climax. If you don't know the foreshadowing of Lao Qiao's life in advance, it is estimated that there is a problem.

But these are not the point. Since I have been tossing about my own affairs in recent years, I have paid more attention to the character of Jobs that the film wants to highlight.

I know that many people around us want to be successful - especially in this era, there are often many stories of heroes that we see or tell us, and countless young heroes make us excited and fascinated, thinking that we should too Belonging to one of those groups, especially since many of us have acquired a little professional knowledge, we think we can change ourselves and change the world.

Jobs and Wozniak were old acquaintances, and without Jobs, Woz would never have succeeded. The reality is that most of us can only be considered craftsmen like Woz and think we are Jobs.

Jobs is valuable in a few basic qualities, which are some of the things that successful people have in common. These things are not something that can be learned from books, but more of an innate thing. I've said before that what you can learn from a book won't make you stand out - what's really great is never something you can read just by reading a book, it's talent and temperament.


0. Have a feeling, and have the ability to recognize jade in the middle. Know what brings value.
1. Believe in yourself. This is the hardest part, and many times we simply don't believe what we're doing.
2. To be provocative, orators are born.
3. Don't be emotional. Seriously, cruel. Jobs didn't give Daniel the original shares of the entrepreneurial veterans. If it was me, I couldn't do it.

The things mentioned above, 99% of us do not have these qualities, and many people do not even have any of the characteristics. They only have the craftsmanship that they are obsessed with, but they all believe that they are Jobs and that they can succeed— —You know, the era of technology being king is long gone.

    It's not as bad as people say...

Jobs quotes

  • Ed Woolard: If you want to get back what you lost, now is the time.

    Steve Jobs: I never lost anything. It was stolen from me.

  • Steve Jobs: [narrating] When you grow up, you tend to get told the world is the way that it is, and your life is just to live your life inside the world and try not to bash into the walls too much. But that's a very limited life. Life can be much broader once you discover one simple fact. And that is that everything around you that you call life, was made up by people that are no smarter than you. And you can change it. You can influence it. You can build your own things that other people can use. To shake off this erroneous notion that life is just there, and you're just gonna live in it, versus embrace it. Change it, improve it. Make your mark upon it. And once you learn that, you'll never be the same again.
