For you? or
For me?
Hi, all my dear students from CO1 and PolyU,
How are you? How’s your new job?
Do you have noticed the different between Industrial Design () and Academic Design ()?
If you feel “OK” about your job, then I would say” Good to hear that, keep it!! But don’t stay at the same spot for too long or too easy to be satisfied with your current duty!”
If you feel disappointed about your job, then try to “create the perfect job ?” for yourself which fit you.
However, if your perfect job is having a snooker table next to your working table, a sexy girl sitting on your legs and start to work at 3:00pm and leave at 6:00pm. But you just start to learn using Photoshop and Illustrator at one hand (without using shortcut key! ), and only think that marketing is about shopping and creativity is “pulling water “.
Then, I wish you, Good Luck!
But, I’ll ask:
“Why it should be for you? ”
At the same time, it is a good question for you who are graduated, you are still studying design and even for myself.
I think we should think about 3 basic questions, before we think about “How to create the perfect job”. They are:
What you can do,
What you want to do and,
What you would do.
“What you can do” means how to improve your ability to have a good bargaining price. At nowadays, we have such many media terminals, I don’t think there will have any reasons to top you to fight for a good price unless you don’t want to or you don’t have such impressive ability.
If you don’t have such impressive ability, then try to get it.
Don’t be sitting there and cry for it, wait for it.
As a man kind between the land and sky, go to get it and become stronger!!!!
, ; Fuck the excuses, show me your power!!!
“What you want to do” means how did you define what is a good job, successful career and beautiful life. Obviously, different job would give you different things. It has more money, then less creativity; if it has more fun, then less personal time?
You would not be such childish ( ) to think that there would have a perfect world and perfect job.
“What you would do” means how to expand your vision to found a better career path and develop it. The world is very big. There have so many (or I should said “too many”) crazy guys that they have already got a lot of impressive abilities and channels. Obviously, God have already tried to be fair, all of us would also have 365 days in one year, and 24 hours a day. How did you invest your time and energy at the potential area is the key issue.
Being smart to look around your world! Do something you would like to do and focusing on it!
Some people ask me about current students in the school, I think most of them are OK but not so hard working…
Some of them have talent , could be a good designer…
Some of them still wait for something else…..
May be first love…
May be fortune …
May be excuse …
May be waiting for become design star without taking any effort…
Anyway, now, due to my past teaching experience, I’ll not be angry, but also would not become “Din Don ” to give all my helping tools to them without reason.
I’ll just simply let them go to hell!
I MUST only save the students who give me his/her hands.
May I help you? (It is so familiar with someone’s name card?
