新概念雙語：身兼多職有何不妥：只是這些好處你不知道

It's not about career planning or career transition; it’s about how you define career? How you synergize your career, hobbies and dreams in a long run? And making all relevant subtle changes for a more satisfying life.

這與職業(yè)規(guī)劃或職業(yè)過渡沒有關(guān)系，但與這些有關(guān)：如何定義自己的職業(yè)?如何在長期發(fā)展中把職業(yè)，興趣與理想融會貫通起來?以及為更美滿生活所做的所有相關(guān)的細微改變。

What is 'Slash Career'?

什么是“Slash Career”?

Slash career is “One person with multiple careers”, you can also say it is a 'Career with slashes'.

Slash career指的是“身兼多職的人”，你也可以說：擁有多個身份的職場人。

This way I will say I am Client Solution Leader/Digital Marketer/ Domain Name Broker. Somebody could be Entrepreneur/Artist/Blogger/Journalist.

這樣我可以稱自己為：客服主管/網(wǎng)絡出版者/域名代理。而別人也可以是企業(yè)家/藝術(shù)家/博客作家/記者。

Why It's Time to Embrace a 'Slash' Career?

為何是時候“身兼多職”了?

Enjoy variety:

能享受多樣變化的樂趣：

Variety is the spice of life; same is true with career also. Develop your hobby into a career sideline.

多樣的變化是生活樂趣的調(diào)劑，職業(yè)也一樣。把你的興趣發(fā)展成副業(yè)吧。

Kill that burnout:

能打敗疲勞倦怠：

Invest your extra energy into something exciting so that you don’t feel the burnout from your long time running primary career.

給有趣的事情投入額外精力，從而不會因為主業(yè)的長時間工作而導致精力殆盡。

Experience the inter-contentedness of multiple industry sectors.

能體驗多個行業(yè)部門之間的滿足感：

How disruptive technology is changing healthcare system? How IoT ( Internet of Things ) will solve environmental issues?

顛覆性技術(shù)是如何改變著醫(yī)療保健制度的?IoT(物聯(lián)網(wǎng))是如何解決環(huán)境問題的?

Unleash your multiple identities:

能解除多個身份的束縛：

You may be a tech research guy spending all day in a lab, but that should not stop to come on cooking channel, or talk on next TEDx event.

你可能是整天呆在實驗室里的技術(shù)研究員，但這也不能阻礙你加入飲食界或在TEDx的晚會里發(fā)表演講。

Future proof your career:

是個人事業(yè)未來的保證：

Today you are A/B/C. Fast forward three years, you become A/C/D/E, and in another four years you are C/E/F. Be industry relevant, be future relevant.

今天你可能是A/B/C。很快過去三年了，你就是A/C/D/E，再過四年你就是C/E/F了。都與行業(yè)和未來密切相關(guān)。

Path to success:

是通往成功的捷徑：

You might not be very successful in your current career, slash career provides you an alternate path to success.

也許你在當前的職位里并不十分成功，但是副業(yè)能給你另一個通往成功道路的選擇。

History’s most notable slash careerists:

歷史上有名的身兼多職者：

-Benjamin Franklin (publisher/ politician/ technologist)

——班杰明·富蘭克林(出版商/政治家/技術(shù)老師)

-Leonardo da Vinci (artist/ inventor)

——列奧納多·達·芬奇(藝術(shù)家/發(fā)明家)

What can you do?

你能做什么?

If you think you are having trouble managing one career, it might be the burnout and fatigue because of decade long repeated frustration.

如果你認為應付一項事業(yè)已經(jīng)感到十分困難，這有可能是長期以來因反復遭受挫折而感到的筋疲力盡。

You just need to create a plan to synergize your multiple identities and give it a fresh look, and start something small, but start early.

你只需制定一個新的計劃，融合多項身份特性并使其煥然一新，然后從小事開始著手，但要及早開始。

Ask yourself “What do you want to become next?” rather than “What do you want to become?”

那么你就該問自己“將來會成為什么樣的人?”而不是“你希望成為什么樣的人?”了。
