- How to connect things that can be connected in parallel
Seeing a lot of people talking about side jobs recently, have you ever thought about doing a side job after work to increase your extra income?
I believe that many people want to, but don't know how to start. Recently, I also encountered the same problem. On the one hand, I need to do my job well, and on the other hand, I want to start my own side business to make money.
But I don't know how to balance the relationship between the two. I always feel that I have no time to do a side hustle when I do a job, and I feel that it will affect my work when I do a side hustle.
And the leader also said at the meeting, let us devote ourselves to the work, because the company is currently in the entrepreneurial stage, there are many things that we need to do, and one person may have multiple roles, so it is best not to do too much and work. Unrelated things, otherwise, will affect the work.
Just as I was hesitating, I came across an article about how to do one job and get two paychecks. The article woke me up at once!
In fact, the work I am engaged in and the side business I want to do can be developed together, that is to say, in the process of doing my own work, I can do my side business together by the way.
I am engaged in copywriting planning, and the sideline I want to do is new media writing. Although the fields of the two are different, the underlying methods are still very similar. They are all collecting materials - sorting and classifying - summarizing, so, As long as you master this method proficiently, you can do both well!
Therefore, if you want to do two things well at the same time, the most important thing is to master the method of parallel development!

- People who cannot connect in parallel develop very slowly.
I heard an entrepreneur share his entrepreneurial experience before. He is the founder of a cosmetic company, the CEO of two listed companies, and the operations director of an education company. Second, he opened a door in person. Courses, teaching Sinology and marriage.
After listening to my colleagues, I was stunned: how can he be so powerful and can do so many things at the same time, and we all feel that we have to pay all our efforts to do our own work.
Later, we learned that the entrepreneur did not do many things, but did some of the most important things to the extreme!
For example, when he is doing cosmetics, he finds some popular bloggers to help him promote it; when he is CEO, he does a good job in the company's planning, and the execution is handed over to his subordinates; when he is an operation director, he finds a professional operation team. , he just does some general planning, and leaves those details to professional people; for courses, he consults some people who have done it successfully and absorbs their experience.
He gets to the point in everything he does, so he's able to push those things along at the same time! On the other hand, my colleagues and I often fail to grasp the key points, cannot distinguish the priorities, and often waste too much time on some trivial matters, while those things that are already very important have no time to do, resulting in myself being busy all the time. Can't get any results!
In fact, there are ways to do everything, and the underlying logic of these methods is similar in many ways. If we only do things on the surface, without thinking about how we can do things faster and better, we will always be Wandering around in low quality jobs with low pay without much promotion!

- The key to connecting things in parallel
I recently learned a very important thinking: analogical thinking, which refers to the reasoning process of inferring that two objects are the same in other attributes by comparing them based on whether they are the same or similar in some attributes.
That is to say, when we learn a certain skill or do a certain thing, we can use the experience or skills we have acquired before to learn new skills or know new things, which can greatly reduce our cognitive difficulty, which is also parallel to mastering fundamental!
Without this kind of thinking, we can't draw inferences from one case, and we can get it together. It's like saying one is one, and we can't think of other things!
So how to do it?
Every time you learn a new knowledge or skill, think about where else they can be used?
For example, copywriting planning needs to collect materials, which is also used in writing new media articles.
The psychological knowledge acquired by a psychologist is also needed in parenting.
If you are a financial accountant in a company, you need to use it when you are financially at home.
……
In short, think more about everything, you can do one thing, gain more knowledge and experience, and greatly improve the efficiency!
When doing copywriting in the company, I learned the copywriting class "Inspiration Comes" by Mr. Li Xinpin, in which she mentioned how she draws inspiration from life.
She said that copywriting is not only a job, but also a way to discover the beauty of life and present it to readers through creative thinking. Therefore, she regards life as work and discovers creative ideas in life.
She reads a book, watches a movie every day, and travels often, and uses the nutrients she absorbs from books, movies, and travel to communicate and communicate with the world through copywriting, so as to gain the recognition of readers!
She regards work as her life. She doesn't need to clock in to work every day. She can choose the corresponding place according to the type of copy she writes, and enter that scene through music.
Therefore, it is often possible to write imaginative and impressive copywriting. These copywritings are also compiled into books and published, and circulated on both sides of the Taiwan Strait for our copywriters' reference.
