Choosing a career direction

Edited English version based on the Chinese original. Read the Chinese original

I wanted to eat meat today. Was I making up for the past few difficult months by eating something outside my usual routine? Looking back now, perhaps that is fine. But at the time I was not forcing myself to abstain. I had simply fallen into a habit: choosing meals for fat loss and walking whenever I could instead of taking transport…

After weighing a few things, I bought a small whole chicken as a treat. I hope I can finish it…

I should also give myself some credit. I went to bed a little earlier last night and felt much better today. In that state, I made a decision about my career. If good decisions combine definition, classification, comparison, and causal reasoning, then that is the process I followed this afternoon. I reached a valuable conclusion about my main path in sales:

Use sales as the skill that turns value into income; work in a fast-growing field such as semiconductors or AI-related industries; make self-learning the engine underneath it; use AI and languages to work more effectively; build a personal reputation through writing; and, eventually, prepare to start a business.

Made it this far? Say hello.

Something resonated, raised a question, or sounded wrong? I would like to hear it.
