In this weekly reading, it addressed about the craftsman mindset, Cal Newport debunks the long-held belief that “follow your passion" is a good advice. According to the book:
“If you want them in your working life, you need something rare and valuable to offer in return. In other words, you need to be good at something before you can expect a good job.The narratives in this book are bound by a common thread: the importance of ability."

The craftsman mindset is crucial for building a career you love.The deep questions driving the passion mindset – “Who am I?" and “What do truly love?"-are essentially impossible to confirm. “Is this who I really am?" and “Do I love this?" rarely reduce to a clear yes-or-no response. In other words, the passion mindset is almost guaranteed to keep you perpetually unhappy and confused.

Steve Jobs had a speech in 2005 Stanford university graduation ceremony, “You’ve got to find what you love.The only way to do great work is to love what you do. If you haven’t found it yet, keep looking, and don’t settle.”

Steve jobs is not the first person to put forward the idea.Since the last century, in a lot of career development and success in the book, all mentioned “follow your passion", told what we should find our true interest, and will it linked with our career, we will be succeed.This view is so popular, until later, a lot of books no longer even argumentation and emphasized the importance of it, and tell we should how to find our passion.

To sum up,Learn to think in artisans, honed in the concrete work of self unique skills, attention to efforts to the world, rather than the world gives to the self.Skills is to obtain working capital, later turn into the strength of self.
