Profession and Business(職業和事業)

    Profession and Business

         Our current educational system focuses on preparing today's youth to get good jobs by de-

veloping scholastic skills. Their lives will revolve around their wages, or their income column. And after developing scholastic skills,they go on to higher levels of schooling to enhance their professional abilities. They study to become engineers, scientists, cooks, police officers, artists, writers and so on. These professional skills allow them to enter the workforce and work for money.

      There is a big difference between your profession and your business. Often I ask people, "What is your business?"And they will say. "Oh I'm a banker." Then I ask them if they own the bank? And they usually respond. "No. I work there"

      In that instance, they have confused their profession with their business. Their profession may be a banker, but they still need their own business. A problem with school is that you often become what you study. So if you study, say, cooking, you become a chef. If you study the law, you become an

attorney, and a study of auto mechanics makes you a mechanic. The mistake in becoming what you study is that too many people forget to mind their own business. They spend their lives minding someone else's business and making that person rich.

職業和事業

    我們現在的教育體制著重于讓現在的年輕人通過掌握課本知識為以后找到好工作做準備。他們的生活圍著報酬或收入欄而轉。掌握了課本知識以后，他們就到高等學校提高職業技能。他們開始學習成為工程師、科學家、廚師、警察、藝術家、作家等等。這些職業技能讓他們進入勞動大軍，為錢而工作。

    職業和事業大有不同。通常當我問別人，“你的事業是什么?”時，他們會說“哦，我是銀行家。”然后我就會問銀行是不是他們的?他們往往就回答，“不，我在那里工作。”

    在那個例子里，他們自己都把職業和事業混淆了。他們的職業也許是銀行家，但他們還需要自己的事業。現在學校教育的一大弊端就是，你學什么通常你將來就變成了什么。比如你學的是烹飪，你就成為了一個廚師。如果你學習法律，那么你以后就當律師，學自動機械使你成為機械師。學什么就變成什么的錯誤就在于，太多人忘記了自己的事業。他們一生都在為別人的事業忙碌，讓別人富有。
