It's not that nobody wants to work, but that they can't find what they want to do; Entrepreneurship is not lack of money, but disdain to set up stalls. Am I right?
I'm almost 40 years old, and I just experienced a business failure and fell into a debt crisis. Let me give you my opinion.
Why is it difficult for middle-aged people to find jobs?
1. In fact, middle-aged people can't find a job, but they just can't find a suitable job. Many people think that middle-aged people are arrogant, but it is easy to stand and talk.
Before preparing for work, middle-aged people should consider how to take care of their families, such as how to pick up their children, how to eat when they get home, and whether their salary is enough to spend. We should also balance social relations, such as how to maintain the personal relationships accumulated in the early stage, the redistribution of social resources and so on!
There are not many jobs for middle-aged people in society now. In fact, middle-aged people rarely have the opportunity to find new jobs outside their professional skills.
My advice to middle-aged people looking for a job is:
1. Instead of competing with young people for some parallel positions, it is better to settle down and improve yourself. There are many skills courses to learn now, whether it is to improve existing vocational skills or learn new skills!
2. Do a good job planning, don't just stare at the position in front of you, think more about some positions that you may not be interested in but have better development prospects, take a long view and don't even care about temporary salary!
3. Broaden some professional thinking. For example, if you are in sales, don't limit yourself to selling things. Is live broadcast a business? Do you sell short videos? No matter what industry, it is now subdivided. After subdivision, you will find that it is much wider than you think!
If you really don't have a skill and it is particularly difficult to find a job, then I suggest starting a business!
What if there is no capital for starting a business?
1. As a middle-aged person, money is not the primary consideration for starting a business. It is really not easy for middle-aged people to start a business again, but compared with funds, middle-aged people should consider what to do and how to do it!
2. Starting a small business is the right way. The petty bourgeoisie mentioned here is relative. If you plan to invest100000, then100000 is a small business! Middle-aged people have only one chance. No matter what you do, please keep more than half of the funds in your hand and invest the rest!
Don't look down on street vendors. Many entrepreneurs in China started as street vendors. When Guo Guangchang started his business, he got a bicycle. There is no threshold for starting a business. As long as you can make money, everything is right!
4. You don't want to go to work and have no money to start a business. I can only suggest that you do it from the media!
The feasibility of middle-aged people working full-time from the media;
1. I have a computer that can type at zero cost. Which industry can do it now? Only from the media. You don't have to write a good article, as long as someone watches what you write, you don't have to make a big video, as long as someone watches it.
No matter what you start, you can't make money in the early stage. The money you earn is also called withdrawal funds, not profits! The same is true from the media, since you have zero cost, you can't ask for immediate benefits, and persistence can succeed!
Few people in the media industry can make money, but those who can make money are really profitable. This is actually not much different from physical entrepreneurship. Many clothing stores and restaurants open every year, but many shops close down. Similarly, the risk is the same!
Write at the end:
Middle-aged people have many problems and difficulties, but they lost to young people in age.
But middle-aged people also have his advantages, calm personality, accumulated industry experience, and are more willing to stick to it.
Opportunities need to be discovered, and complaints will hold us back!
