Never Say Die, in This Abundant Universe --- 2

If you have US $100, you can build it and get Physics Nobel Prize later.

Small enough to hold in your hand.

So we cannot blame anyone or anything for our situation in life.

The first successful cyclotron, built in 1930 by Ernest Lawrence at the University of California, is shown below.

Candopi.com says: "Never say die. One more try"  ;-)

Never Say Die, in This Abundant Universe

If you have 7 years, pencils, paper and waste basket, you can write 5 worthless research papers,  and 5 good ones and become another Einstein or a junior Einstein or at least a Physics PhD.( US alone make about 1000 Physics PhD per year!)

So we cannot blame anyone or anything for our situation in life.

Einstein working in at the patent office, Bern, Switzerland, looked a bit depressed!

Steve Jobs the Alchemist

According to this article, How to use the concept of Alchemy to improve your writing (or any creative action), alchemy relies on

-- reducing base metal to its materia prima prior to it being transmuted into gold.

-- reducing a writing idea to its essence

-- dissolving impurities


In another example, we have  1,500 types of stretches or 60+ Yoga poses or 120+ Tai Chi moves

versus

the following 12-move exercise.

Wherever there is complexity, there is underlying deep simplicity.

Steve Jobs made his name with kicking out the fluff and the chaff from his products.

Even if there is a Fairchild Semiconductor, there is  still room for an Intel.

Getting Real Skills, in Real Ways

How do you make good jobs, good skills and not-meaningless fame come to you?

Yes, that is three birds for one stone. Degrees, diplomas and certificates can help. But there is a faster, cheaper, easier, more threatening (more reliable) option. Just start and finish a project( or product ) that wins real customers, living their real lives in real markets.

Proof that It Works

This is how waiters, shoe repair men, and car-number plate painters get thier jobs.

By the way, this is also how the poorly-paid, lowly miserable Einstein won a physics Nobel Prize and became a professor. Also how a restaurant manager Karry Mullis won a chemistry Nobel Prize and became a highly-paid researcher. Also how a Subway worker, a train station worker discovered a new way to calculate prime numbers and became a professor.

Between these janitors and those Nobel Prize winners, there are lots of unlucky, unhappy folks who rose. Like JB Strauble who got a big job at Tesla. Like Anthony Levandowsky who Goolge and Uber fought to employ. Like Luckey who Facebook acqui-hired for Oculus VR games. And a million more examples ...

Proof that It's Easy

You build on previous inventions, discoveries, innovations and technologies.

You can hire or team up with experts.

Away from classrooms, you are free to experiment, free to fail, free to try unconventional approaches.

Passion Gets You the Jobs? Only In America?

I wonder if this idea would get you into trouble in some cultures. There, the interviewers would think you are arrogant or crazy or both.
