On the way to building a successful career? This article can help you to succeed in your quest. Whether you are in intermediate college, doing ADP Business administration, or completing your studies. I am going to tell you secrets to get on the path to success.
Intermediate colleges and universities are working a lot to put you on the path of success but there is a lot of lack of career advice in their process to make you the best fit for the working world. They are helping you to get the job, but not pushing you towards a successful career path.
Recognizing the importance of a career I’ve summed up the key points that can help climb the ladder of success. Whether you are a newcomer or have spent several years on this path. I am helping you to succeed.
Given below are pieces of advice to follow for boosting up your Career:
- Focus on Learning, Not Earning
- Define your version of Success
- Seek feedback (learn to accept criticism)
- Network to Make Friends, Not Contacts
- Turn Career advice into career action
Focus on Learning, Not Earning:
The first and foremost important point to keep in your mind is not to prioritize earning over learning. Especially at the beginning of your profession, you must gather as much knowledge of your field as you can. Some people focus on earning at the start of their job but it is the wrong practice. With this, you can earn more at the start but it can cause trouble for you with the passage of time. Try to focus on learning instead of earning at the start of your career.
Define Your Version Of Success:
“Don’t let life kick you into the adult you never wanted to become”
Have you ever asked yourself? What is success to you? For the majority of people, the definition of success is to earn a lot of money, buy expensive things, and live a luxurious life.
There is nothing wrong with living a luxurious life, but be aware of your path and don’t end up getting “Sucks-cess”. This is the word given to success that can provide you with all the luxuries but you will hate the life that success will provide.
How you generate the definition of success totally depends upon you. You achieved your goals with your definition but let me ask “Was it Worth It”?
Seek Feedback (Learn to Accept Criticism):
The best method of getting better on your career path is to seek feedback. You can ask your manager or your team lead how you can improve yourself. If you consider a part of your work you can also ask them about that. You must be open to all kinds of suggestions. Maybe they can suggest something you haven’t thought of.
Always keep in your mind that all the criticism in the form of feedback is about your job, not your personality. Of Course, handling feedback in the form of criticism is not an easy task but try to endorse it constructively.
Network To make Friends Not Contacts:
Building your network is the most important step to move forward in life and business. But for the majority of people building a network means shaking hands and exchanging business cards. If your definition of enhancing a network is the same as many of them, you are doing it wrong.
Network with the people like you did in your intermediate college. The friends you made in your college are still with you to help you in every phase of your life. You should do the same in your professional life so that your network helps you in the ups and downs of your life and business.
The friends’ network of your professional life will also help you boost your earning speed. I know you are thinking that not everybody can help you in business. I agree with you on this even if they are unable to help you in business, but you still have a friend to share your problems with. So, it is a total win-win situation.
