Career Growth through Skill and Luck
Career growth happens using two distinct mechanisms.
- Skill: You work consistently on your skills. It works like compound interest - slow in the beginning. But the exponential growth at the tail end of compounding is a sight to behold. One fine day people around you realize you have become a legitimate expert in the field. They give you new opportunities, and your career takes off.
- Luck: Sometimes you get lucky. You are presented with an opportunity BEFORE being recognized as an expert.
People often think of luck as random, unpredictable events or circumstances that can influence the outcome of a situation.
We have a different take on skill and luck.
Skill is the deterministic part of effort required for success while luck is the probabilistic part.
Luck is not a random sample drawn from a uniform distribution. Instead it is a sample drawn from a distribution whose shape you can change. You can literally bend luck in your favor.
Bending Luck in Your Favor
Let's see a few ways you can bend luck in your favor.
Field of Work
In slow growth or established areas luck is rare. It is unlikely, a engineer right out of college will be given a chance to design parts of a new aircraft.
In high growth and new areas like Computer Vision and AI, opportunities are abundant and you are often given a chance before you may be ready. Andrej Karpathy, a brilliant AI researcher and engineer became the head of Tesla's self-driving effort in 2017. He had received his Ph.D. just two years back in 2015!
One of the easiest ways to get a jumpstart in an AI career is to join our computer vision and AI programs.

Work in Public (Project Portfolios)
One of the easiest ways to improve your luck is to put your work out in public. Yes, it can be scary because you may feel your project is not substantial.
Sharing your work in public forces you to produce the best work you can. For example, most people would write good instructions and comment their code if they are putting a piece of work in public. It also helps prospective employers see your growth over the years.
When you take AI Courses By OpenCV , you will work on several projects to build your portfolio that we encourage you to share publicly. With a 30-day no-questions-asked money-back guarantee you will have enough time to explore the material and make up your mind.

Seek Opportunities within your Organization
Sometimes luck comes in the form of unexpected opportunities within your organization. Make people around you aware of your interest in Computer Vision and AI. Show them how you are going about improving your AI skills.
If you are working on a computer vision and AI side project, show them a demo. They will think of you and seek your help when a new AI project comes along.
In our Computer Vision II: Applications, we show how to quickly put together a demo web application to showcase your computer vision project so other people, including your boss, can try out your project without having to install anything.
Be Mindful of the Cost of Time
Time is the coin of our lives, and it the only resource equally distributed among all individuals. How efficiently you use your time determines your luck.
Yet, many people do not value time enough. They spend months and years in disorganized effort in learning new skills.
They won't pay for a program designed by practitioners in the field that can significantly shorten their learning path, and improve their problem solving ability. Consequently, they have holes in their knowledge and lack the confidence to face an AI job interview.
Fortunately, a small percentage of people will invest in their careers in 2023 and benefit enormously from this AI wave.
Give luck a chance!
Our holiday sale will end soon. Don't forget to use our coupon code HS5 at checkout for an additional 5% subscribers' discount. We recommend the CV Master Bundle for the best value, and the most comprehensive training in Computer Vision, Deep Learning, and AI.
