The less you try to “stay loose” and open to anything,
the more precisely you define your skills
with Data/Information and/or People and/or Things in detail
and at the highest level you legitimately can claim,
the more likely you are to find a job.

Q: How long should I be devoted to quantum mechanics?
A: One night or one life.

To come very near to a true theory
and to grasp its precise application,
are two very different things,
as the history of science teaches us.
Every thing of importance has been said
before by somebody who did not discover it.

BILL MOYERS: Do you ever have the sense of… being helped by hidden hands?
.
JOSEPH CAMPBELL: All the time. It is miraculous. I even have a superstition that has grown on me as a result of invisible hands coming all the time – namely, that if you do follow your bliss you put yourself on a kind of track that has been there all the while, waiting for you, and the life that you ought to be living is the one you are living. When you can see that, you begin to meet people who are in your field of bliss, and they open doors to you. I say, follow your bliss and don’t be afraid, and doors will open where you didn’t know they were going to be.
* * *
My general formula for my students is “Follow your bliss.” Find where it is, and don’t be afraid to follow it.
– Joseph Campbell, The Power of Myth, pp. 120, 149

大部分人也分不清技能與天份.
天份需要技能的支撐. 但是技能本身不是天份.
.
例如:
如果你的運算能力技巧很差的話,
你很難說服人你有數學天份.
.
但是即使你的運算能力高,
亦不代表你有數學天份, 有數學傾向.
因為除了運算能力外,
數學天份還需要其他技能和性格特質的支持, 才能發揮.

4.3.3 Always produce in your favourite area, whether it is your current job

If your dream is to be a writer, write every day. If your dream is to be a painter, paint every day.
Otherwise, your ability will be lost. You may not be able to get your power back when you get your dream job.

LISP writer Paul Graham has written an essay called “How to do what you love”, giving some practical advice.
There are three main points, for me, in the essay:
Have a habit of doing good work in your current job, whether it is your favourite.
Always produce in your favourite area, whether it is your current job.
.
Sometimes, I faced some boring work. When I wanted to get rid of it, I had a thought: “Someone has to do it anyway. If I do not do it, someone else will have to. That means I am wasting other people’s time. I will feel guilty about that.”
Now I do not think in that way. If I choose not to do a job, the number of people available for that job will decrease. That means the price to get a person to do the job will rise. Then the person who has chosen that job will get a higher salary. So, instead of wasting his time, I make him earn a higher salary.
If a job is so boring that it is virtually impossible to get any human being to do it, people will create a machine to get the job done.

e.g. Google had only one function — the search function. It did the very best for the search engine. Once it started to dominate, it expanded its functions, such as Gmail and Google Calender, based on its search technology.
Google’s own words on Google’s Philosophy page:
It’s best to do one thing really, really well.
Google does search. With one of the world’s largest research groups focused exclusively on solving search problems, we know what we do well, and how we could do it better. … Our dedication to improving search has also allowed us to apply what we’ve learned to new products, including Gmail, Google Desktop, and Google Maps.

Wisdom and Next
Is there anything higher than wisdom? If yes, what is the process of going from wisdom to there?
Dying. (This can be trivial. When you age to a certain extent, you die.)
Then what is Next?
How can I know? I have not died yet!
