How to grow quickly as an operator

As an operator, how to do things correctly, how to operate, how to grow quickly, and even how we grow as a person, combined with some recent insights, I feel that it is more important to obtain information correctly, have data analysis skills, be good at expressing yourself, not to be moderate, and adhere to long-termism. If we achieve these five points, we will grow faster. information acquisition The primary manifestation of a person's learning ability is the ability to acquire information. In today's information society, information overload is very serious. You are disturbed by the outside world all the time. What the outside world pushes to you is just fragmented and unsystematic information. Sometimes the information is not at all. Unsystematic knowledge will not make you grow much. Only by actively acquiring the knowledge can it be of greater help to you. To obtain information, if you only look at Chinese materials, you will get very limited results. There will be problems with timeliness and even authenticity. Of course, English materials are not objective, fair and timely. Compared with Baidu and Zhihu, I still recommend that you use Google and Quora more. Only by obtaining this information in various ways and conducting in-depth analysis can it serve your goals and then turn it into productivity. data analysis  In operations, data analysis ability is the first ability. I have a view that operating income = operating volume * operating efficiency, and the improvement of operating efficiency is obtained through data analysis to guide operations and product development. I have another explanation for starting with the end in mind, which is that for everything, you have to deduce the causes (multiple factors) from the results. If you apply power to these factors to amplify their factors, you can get the amplified results. We must trust the data, because the data represents or implies the truth. Only data analysis can help you draw conclusions. Conclusions need to be obtained in the correct way: first, to remove the false and retain the true from the complicated data, to peel off the cocoon and draw the thread to get the conclusion, that is, basic analytical ability; second, to get the influence of the variable from the combination of variables and invariants, this is testing ability, or practical ability. When there are many parameters, you need to find the basic meta-variable. Only its change is the most basic change, because it causes changes in other variables. Analyze this meta-variable to see its impact on the results. If it is a linear fitting, it is necessary to find the eigenvectors and eigenvalues. If the eigenvectors are not found correctly or completely, the eigenvalues ​​will be meaningless. expressive  The communication window as shown in the figure can be divided into four quadrants: public quadrant, privacy quadrant, blind spot quadrant and potential quadrant according to what you know and what you don't know, what others know and what others don't know. Let’s not talk about other quadrants. If you want others to understand yourself more and more fully, the public quadrant is large enough. If you don’t express yourself, no one knows what you think and what you need, especially the leader of the team, the more they have to expose themselves. Our Chinese tradition requires people to be sensitive to matters and slow to speak, requires silence to be golden, and requires people to be steady. This cannot be wrong, at least it is not comprehensive. Expression helps to think, further refine your thinking and conclusions, add other people's feedback to your thinking, and use green light ideas to do things, then you will maintain an open mind and grow faster. The picture accompanying the historical article has expired Don't be moderate I believe in environmental determinism. I think environmental determinism can explain the development phenomena of many civilizations, religions, and nations. There is a reason why the Chinese people are diligent and brave. The reason why Chinese civilization has maintained stability and independent development after thousands of years is related to our geographical location. The Middle East is the birthplace of civilization, and conflicts have been constant in history, which is also determined by its location. The Pacific islands were still in primitive societies in modern times, which was also due to the geographical location that prevented them from communicating with other civilizations, and so on. I also believe in mechanics. The whole world is a system, and its operation is regular. The movement of stars is regular and conforms to the laws of physics. The movement of atoms has its own rules. comply with the laws of physics. We firmly believe that there is a reason behind everything, and we can solve it by finding the reason. We say that historical development has its own rules, and history is always surprisingly similar, and this is also true. One more thing, history and geography are dimensions and disciplines that explain the world from the two dimensions of space and time. A person who does not understand history and geography lacks humanistic literacy and has an incomplete understanding of the world. Both theories are one-sided and neither is completely correct, but why do they have to be perfect? ​​As long as you know where their boundaries are, this theory can guide your life, guide you to observe, perceive, think and deduce the conclusions you need. When we do things, we don’t want to be moderate, don’t use correct nonsense, don’t sit on the wall, and clearly show your views; wrong views, as long as they are logically consistent, will also be helpful to trigger others’ thinking.  long termism How do you grow yourself? You must believe in the long-term power and the role of compound interest. When you encounter a problem, solve it: solve one problem a week, and next week you will be on top of your knowledge last week. If you solve a problem a day, your knowledge will be higher than yesterday. If you solve a problem every month, your ability will be stronger than the last month. We need to make real progress. We don’t need to do too many things every day. As long as we improve, focus a little, and overcome it, we will improve ourselves on this basis tomorrow. Every day makes one death, and the work is not in vain. This is what it means. I believe that achieving goals = correct methods + unremitting efforts. We say that hard work alone is useless. It requires correct methods. Of course, correct methods include having the right strategy and using the right people to do the right things. Then, unremitting efforts and persistence are equally important. This is the effectiveness of long-termism.
