Recently, I was honored to accept an exclusive interview with Paulie (opens in a new tab), the host of the program “Polly’s Slash Path (opens in a new tab)”, where I talked about my career as a writer and how to start a business with my hobbies.
Topics discussed in this episode:
- Vista’s graduate school majored in Industrial Engineering (opens in a new tab). When I switched from an engineer to the media industry, how could there be such a big career change?
- Is it important to continue cultivating one’s interests outside of one’s major?
- When changing jobs from engineer to the media industry, do you have any inner struggles? How old were you approximately at that time?
- Many friends will ask, how to turn interest (opens in a new tab) into your major? But some people worry that if they turn their hobbies into work, their hobbies will no longer be interesting?
- Vista started an independent business with the theme of writing (opens in a new tab) and became a consultant, columnist and lecturer (opens in a new tab). How did Vista decide that he wanted to focus on writing as an entrepreneurial topic?
- Many people will say that in this era, no one reads articles anymore. Everyone just scrolls through social media and watches videos. Want to ask what you think about Vista?
- Vista’s Writing Companion Program (opens in a new tab) has helped many people improve their writing skills. Based on Vista’s observation, what are the common writing problems faced by office workers?
- How should ordinary office workers develop their writing skills?
- How can we get out of our comfort zone and try topics that we are not good at?
