Chatting with V大, you can always get a lot of ideas!

Your own inventory is to recall the details, see what you have done in the past, and re-understand yourself; through others to help you do inventory, you can break through blind spots and see the focus that you will never pay attention to. And V Da is a person who is very open to discussion. He has enough background and observation to make appropriate analysis and suggestions.

After working in the same field for a long time, if you continue to improve, your expertise can definitely be extended and deepened. But it is also easy for us to focus on this field all the time, thinking that we have no framework but being shackled by invisible constraints. Through a conversation with a person who is different from our own but has some overlap, we can get new ideas from them, but it is not easy to come back to practice or implement them because there is a lack of self-awareness and context guidance.

Only those who have tools to guide thinking can help another person re-examine, whether it is life or career blueprints, with the help of a framework. Otherwise, it is just a simple chat. If you do not have the ability to think and summarize the structure, what you will get after the chat is still a piece of sand. If you have a set of thinking tools and then talk to someone who has another set of thinking tools, what will you get? It is to confirm more ideas, fill in the overlooked blind spots, and summarize new thinking angles and perspectives. This is the most profound experience I gained during this conversation.

If you do the same thing, what are the results and derived benefits? What is the output and proportion of your efforts? What do you want others to know about you?

We always say that there is a lot of information and it is complicated, but it can also be very simple. You need to be able to compile the explosive information from the outside, either through someone who is very capable of structuring it, but what you get is the infusion of other people’s opinions, not inspiration from the inside out; or through someone with guidance tools, who can help you draw out your own exclusive structure from the inside out. Only in this way can you actually think more deeply and implement it. While pursuing the reduction of complexity into simplicity, what you need to think about is how much benefit has been gained by touching and changing yourself?

Don’t just listen, but find the right person and have a good chat. You can get more than you think, but how do you choose? You can consider the following principles:

• Professionalism doesn’t have to be stronger than yours, but you need to have a unique perspective.
• The field is completely different from yours, but the business has some overlap.
• Have a set of guided thinking tools and be able to think systematically.
• Keen in observation and good at listening, and able to ask the right core questions.
• The amount of information is powerful and extensive, and it can integrate different aspects and generate new perspectives.
• A curious person with a variety of life experiences.

With a large V Nine-Panel Grid, you can simply list your career proportions and have more in-depth and focused focus conversations. If you are in the transition period of your life or career, or if you have a vague focus on your career, you may wish to do Jiugongge.

The point is to talk to V University, maybe we can talk about a new opportunity in life! For me, what I gained from this inventory was not the Jiugongge itself, but helping me to inventory the details that I had overlooked through the eyes of V. This alone makes me enter a re-inventory period in the past two days!

For me, a good conversation does not come from how much information I hear, but how deeply I experience it, making me willing to put it into practice. This morning was well worth it!
