非常好的职业建议，来自Scott Adams
从一个非常喜欢的人的blog看到的，这个人是Tomcat的作者，现在是Apple的Object C开发者，兼重要的RoR作者，兼资深摄影师，兼Mac大fans，他叫James Duncan Davidson（http://duncandavidson.com/）。
在一篇Blog讲到，Scott Adams说：
Everyone has at least a few areas in which they could be in the top 25% with some effort. In my case, I can draw better than most people, but I’m hardly an artist. And I’m not any funnier than the average standup comedian who never makes it big, but I’m funnier than most people. The magic is that few people can draw well and write jokes. It’s the combination of the two that makes what I do so rare. And when you add in my business background, suddenly I had a topic that few cartoonists could hope to understand without living it.
翻译一下就是说：
每个人都可以找到通过一些努力就可以跻身前25%的行业。例如我，我可以比大多数人画的好，但是我还够不上艺术家的水平。我也没有达到喜剧演员那种好笑的水平，但是我比大多数人好笑。魔法在于没什么人即画得好又会写笑话。所以混合一下我就很稀有了。加上我的商业知识背景，我突然发现我比其它的动画人更能理解它（商务）。
思考一下，其实就是当下流行的mush up。你混合一下你的长处，也许你就找到了你真正的长处，你的职业。
同时James又推荐了Stay Hungry，Stay Foolish，他说他37岁了依然觉得那是篇很好的文章。我很早之前也推荐过这篇文章，大家继续看看。
