We are living in Multiverse
I always wonder if a true asshole that everyone agrees that he is one thinks himself as one. Here is what I know that is true for sure.
- Every single person in the world is quirky in their own ways. There is not a single ultimate good, bad, righteous etc person.
- You know some version of a person that he pretends to be. The easier way to think about it is that everyone is playing a character in multiple movies. If you know Bob at work, you only know the work version of Bob. I will go one step further. What I believe who I am is one version of me. It's my own version, but still a version of many versions.
So how do I take this concept to be successful? I need to pick the one of many multiverse that works best for me. It's the world that appreciate you for who you are, appreciate your skillset, appreciate your company, thinks that you are great.
But many of us are stuck in the wrong ones.
So how do we find the one that works the best? The best I can come up with right at this moment is "trial and error." Keep at it. Keep searching for it.
When it comes to success in career, you can put eveyone in one of the three buckets below. And I think about 80 to 85% of people fall into "Subjectively Good"
| Type | Description | Suggestion |
|---|---|---|
| Obejectively Good | Almost everyone thinks you are awesome | You will need minimal luck to be successful and won't really need to find your version of multiverse |
| Subjectively Good | Some people think you are awesome and some people think you are bad | You will need maximum luck and must find your version of multiverse |
| Objectively Bad | Eveyone thinks you are bad at what you do. There is no hope. | You're doomed |
Your goal should be to become "Objectively Good." We are talking about people who are so great at what they do that you won't have to look for jobs. They will approach you and they will build an office near your house to hire you.
So here is what you need to do. Your long term goal is to become "objectively good" and keep learning and keep buildling up your reputation. But meanwhile, also keep searching for your version of multiverse where your value is higher.
If you contibue attack these two fronts, you will do okay.
