Facing rapid changes in the digital market, information update becomes daily homework. For people who might panic about inundating information, they may even receive too much useless information. There are also people who feel absolutely no need to update new information. How do you train and advance your ‘level’ of digital entertainment market observation? I think people who love playing online games would share the same experience, “If you discover somewhere good to upgrade your level, you develop a model and repeat it to swiftly accumulate experience value.” How do you develop such model? To avoid becoming one of those information-nonchalant people and sharpen your senses on detecting market changes, G!VOICE now shows you how to do it properly!
Before You Set Off, Find Your Equipements
Personal computers, laptops, iPad and smart phones are considered 4 fundamental tools for modern digital people. However, it is not important if you actually possess those, whether your equipment is suitable for you is the key. For example, if you already spend over 7 or 8 hours on the internet at work, would you still want to turn on your computer when you go home? You should examine your ‘life helper’ instead of your ‘work tools’. Some people use iPad, some use books, some like to chat with others. So long as it’s a tool that enables you to ‘receive new life information’, it is considered a good piece of ‘equipment’. Then, how do you make good use of those equipment? There are so many books to choose from; so many topics to chat about; so many applications to download, which one should I choose? Well, since we’ve already established that it should be your ‘life helper’, we should try to reduce the stress level as much as possible. Simply put, it is through your ‘interest’ and close observation that you gain such experience and subsequently upgrade your level.
Choose Your Perfect Place
The devil is in the detail, observation requires that extra bit of curiosity. You could ask your friends what games they have been playing lately or what sort of things they are interested in. You could go to a bookstore and see what books are on the top-selling shelve. Digital entertainment is a product that comes out of human demands and therefore observing the latest trend is a required homework. You need to cultivate your insight and choose a field/place that works best for you. The layman way of getting into it is to see what ‘everybody has been talking about’ and pick one that you are particularly interested in and dig deeper. ‘Interests’ is an important element, because you are interested, you find a way to know all about it. You don’t need to force yourself to read trendy publication, you only need to ‘feel’ the pulsation of the trend through living it.
Find a Model That Works For You
After finding out where you interests are at and trying to get further information, the next step is the issue of participation. Some people could stay in the same model over and over again, while some get bored of it after 2 or 3 times and want to change to a new model. It doesn’t matter which type of people you are, if you follow what you like or what you’re used to, you could grow in a pleasant environment.
For example, a person who is in charge of website operation plan hates to turn on computer after work. She likes to read clothing magazine and shopping. These hobbies have nothing to do with her work and she feels nothing for ‘games’. One day, these seemingly unrelated things crossed paths. She enthusiastically introduced a game, Top Girl to everyone.
Observation at Work and in Life
Information that comes from game exhibitions, digital trend seminars etc.is positively relevant to our works and can be considered background knowledge. However, in terms of details in life, these are usually the basic points for explosive creativity. The first step to upgrading your experience value is to develop interests outside of work, pushing your life circle outward. You don’t need to deliberately do it but you must have interests first. Then you would realize how many other people share the same interest as you. Turning your interests and observations into professional data and analyze accordingly could enhance your vision and judgment. Quality would always triumph quantity. Through real life observation and cross-reference, you could make judgment better at work. After a while, you could swiftly analyze what life information is relevant to work and whether what you study and how you study are what you need. Therefore, we’d like to ask you to go out and have some ‘fun’ after work! Watch, listen and have fun. Use your ‘equipment’ well, find a ‘place’ that works best for your improvement and naturally, you will find a model that belongs exclusively to you!
