Slash comes from the English word "slash", and this concept comes from Marcy Erbol, a columnist in The New York Times, USA. More and more young people are no longer satisfied with the "single career" lifestyle, but choose a diversified professional life. They use the symbol "/"to classify different professional identities, such as "accountant/marathon runner/food nutrition expert". The slash "/"is the boundary of various occupations, and "slash" has become synonymous with these people.

The development of the Internet has boosted the enjoyment of the economy and provided unlimited possibilities for the development of slash. Luo Zijun's eight-year "full-time housewife" career in the hit drama "My First Half Life" is embarrassing. But I think, even a full-time mother, there are few "full-time leisure" States like Luo Zijun nowadays.

Stay-at-home moms around or online often have a sideline besides the main business of "stay-at-home moms", such as doing a WeChat business as an agent, making some cakes when they have time, opening an official WeChat account for parenting, helping people retouch pictures, taking photos and so on. At this time, the slash identity is actually an online shop operator/private baker/freelance writer/amateur photographer.

All women who are mothers already have the main business of "mother". Whether you have a job or not, you have an extra slash. And most importantly, behind this diagonal line is your own life orientation and social role. Don't underestimate yourself, even if you forward and sell a mask, it is also the beginning of your "slash career", which means that you have the heart to achieve financial independence.

How to be a slash youth? The book Slash Entrepreneur builds your "slash thinking" around three core issues. And "diagonal thinking" may open your different life path.

One of the characteristics of slash entrepreneurs is that it is like a key, which can help you form the idea of sideline business. The author not only told the whole story of his success, but also interviewed dozens of slash entrepreneurs and summarized the key to their success.

Many sideline workers interviewed in the book said that their sideline ideas originated from a little inspiration in their hearts, and they firmly believed that this inspiration would eventually become their financial safety net. And some sideline businesses can give people a chance to realize their childhood hobbies, or regain skills that have been abandoned for a long time, and at the same time, they can also give full play to their talents to meet the current financial needs. These sideline businesses can be writers, illustrators, video clips, fitness instructors, etc. And develop in areas that you are more interested in and good at.

The book says: "What inspires you most is your daily work. Most of the sideline businesses I interviewed used some variants or branches of my full-time job to develop sideline businesses. Maybe there will be a lot of pressure in the process of balancing the main business and sideline business, but she thinks it is worthwhile because she has obtained spiritual satisfaction in helping other teachers improve their work efficiency. "

Yes, it reminds me of many people:

For example, Haruki Murakami, after being a novelist for a long time, still insists on running a small bar. On the one hand, he is a "big brother raising a younger brother" in his main business. On the other hand, all kinds of experiences in the bar can be used as material for his novels in the future and inspire him.

For example, I love teacher Cai Yingqing very much. Although she said, "My job is mother", I think that because she runs the main business of "mother" and wants to give delicious food to her family, she will definitely bring the dishes to her restaurant to upgrade, thus inspiring her love, shining in her works and being read by you and me.

Another example is my next-door neighbor Mianma. When I read the book slash entrepreneur, I couldn't help sending it to her on WeChat. I said, "You are a model mother of the new era with a thriving sideline." The sideline I listed for her includes "Internet celebrity/event planning/amateur photographer/Tong Mo agent". These diagonal lines are not obtained for no reason. Before the baby was born, she was the "pillar" of our largest local wedding company. She did 80% of the wedding planning by herself. In addition to practicing the powerful ability of "controlling the venue by one person", she also got the related skills of photography, retouching and matching. Full-time, she is not lonely, because the slash brings her value.

The second characteristic of diagonal entrepreneurs, like a compass, can help you modify your sideline planning. This book comes with a sideline entrepreneurship manual that anyone can easily use. The author believes that through these questions designed by her, everyone can find a sideline that suits them.

Redefine "financial independence". The book said: "Financial independence does not mean an annual income of $6.5438+0 million, or retirement at the age of 35. On the contrary, it means that a single boss, single employer or single salary is not your only source of income every month. It also shows that you always have at least one extra income, regardless of the impact of economic fluctuations or the employer's bottom line. "

Redefine your life. Slash entrepreneurs also need career planning, or slash recognition, which can awaken many people's dreams and find their own value. For a mother, the main business may be the economic bottom line guarantee of the sideline, and the main business may also be a temporary responsibility for raising, but the sideline is definitely your personal choice and personal plot. Slash identity can bring you life satisfaction and personal accomplishment outside of full-time work, and build your own career blueprint.

The third characteristic of diagonal entrepreneurs, like a reminder, accurately refines the 12 rule of managing time.

Li Xiaolai repeatedly emphasized in his book "Make Time Your Friend" that time can't be managed, and everything depends on accumulation. I think it is consistent with the experience of the successful slash entrepreneur in the book.

An excellent slash entrepreneur should not only ensure that sideline business does not conflict with formal work, but also ensure that sideline business does not violate normal living arrangements. Since "time management" is a false proposition, the real root lies in "people" itself. There is no white road in life, and there is no white turn in life. Find ways in accumulation and realize freedom with self-discipline.

The 12 principles of time management mentioned in the book include: getting up early, using horizontal time, accepting imperfections, giving priority to work, working with one's lover, incorporating rest into daily habits, paying attention to experience management instead of time management, watching less TV and other time-consuming activities, living a planned life, learning to say no, unifying housework management, and writing down every idea.

The book also says that if you want to squeeze in more time every week, you can cut down on time-consuming activities, get up early or stay up late, or just pay more attention to efficiency, which will get twice the result with half the effort.

I think these "slash thinking" mentioned above is quite beneficial, even if it is not used in developing the "slash cause", but in any other way. With "diagonal thinking", you can find more opportunities to shine in your daily life.
