Chi-Hua Chien on finding a great job: stop calling it a job and follow what excites you. Work for people you trust, like Bill Ziff. If you're unhappy, talk to your boss privately, then leave rather than stay bitter.
So how do you get a great job? First of all, probably the hardest thing to do is to recognize that you're not going to really know what a great job is. So the advice that I would give you that I wish somebody had given me is the way you get a great job is you don't think of it as a job. Follow your passions, If you're excited about something, whatever you're doing is going to feel like a great job. So don't be afraid to follow your passions. Work for people or around people that you believe in and you trust, like I had with Bill Ziff, who we always thought is the mayor of Ziff Davis. We knew that if there were ever a big problem, he'd figure out how to solve it. So follow your passion, work for people you trust, give everything you have, to that. Define success. Never look back, meaning the road not taken is something you're never going to know. So make the road you're on successful. And as soon as you realize you can't be happy, go talk to the boss. Make your case in private. And if you can't change their mind, go do something else. Because you don't want to be a cancer in an organization. It may turn out that you're wrong and they're right. Or it may turn out neither of you is wrong or right, it just may not be the right environment for you. But you don't hang around in a place you can't find a way to be happy. But get up every day and recognize that, you know what, you live in one of the greatest places on the planet, you're going to have opportunities that almost no one else in the world gets, embrace it, enjoy it, do it with passion and if it fails, do it again.
O processo de reconhecer limites, mesmo quando a vida parece exigir sempre mais.
