Five types of university teachers
The first is the highest state, that is, taking learning as a pleasure and really enjoying learning. As Confucius said, "those who know are not as good as those who are good, and those who are good are not as good as those who are happy." Enjoy learning and immerse yourself in academic happiness every day, which is the highest realm.
The second is to pursue academic career, just like a speech published by Max Weber called "Pursuing Academic Career", which was later translated into Chinese and published under the title of "Pursuing Academic Career". There are many different versions, which are also very high level.
The third level is academic career. A career refers to an activity that has a certain goal, scale and system and has an impact on social development. A person can fight for it all his life and persevere in achieving his goals.
The fourth is to take academics as a profession. University teachers, middle school teachers and people from all walks of life are all engaged in a profession. A considerable number of university teachers are in the third and fourth grades. Some people take academics as their career, while others take academics as their career.
The fifth level is to regard academics as a bitter industry.
