Except for your passion and expertise for success, you also need some other important skills, habits or factors to boost you to be a better status. For example, you need good time management skills. You need enough courage not to be afraid of failure and you need good opportunities.
Time Management:
Don’t stall important tasks until the very last moment. That is the worst thing you could do. You never know when uncertainty strikes and something keeps you from finishing your work. It can cause unwarranted stress for you and people around you, and also increases the chances of error. Learn to manage your time effectively and finish all tasks efficiently and in time. Use an electronic planner or a timetable if you want to. You can even find great applications for this to run on your smartphone. Learn to categorize tasks in different groups and subgroups and accomplish them according to an effective system of prioritization. Stay organized and inspired.
Don’t be afraid of failure:
One of the saddest things in life is when people don’t even start on something they really wanted to, because of the fear of failure. You will never know how good you are or how much you’ll enjoy doing something if you don’t even start. The first steps are always the most difficult, but never let fear of failure rein you in. Failure is an inescapable part of the process of learning, and if you never fail at anything, you haven’t really lived at all, which means you fail by default. Failure makes you wiser, and you can begin again with much more experience this time. As well as learning what I was good at, I learned what I was bad at but I didn’t let it get me down. It was just a question of trying and if I failed, I simply eliminated something from the list of potentials and then added something new at the bottom of the list, so that I was always trying out something new. Occasionally some of these stuck and I was very good at them and that’s when you get a real kick out of life.
Create your own opportunities:
You can’t have everything served to you by just choosing to go with the flow and not trying your absolute best to create every windor of opportunity that you possibly can. Great things don’t come to those who sit idly and wait. Think big and make it happen by actively working towards it. For example, you may not be going where you want to go in your career, but if you don’t know where to head, how are you ever going to find out what is that really makes you happy? You need to think about the kind of activities that really does make you content and try to work out a way in which you can take up work that fits in with that. Some people have a natural aptitude for caring and nursing is a great career that gives them the opportunity to do that every day of their working lives. Others prefer to do something that makes other people’s lives better and there are loads of opportunities all over the world where you can do this. Decide what your expertise is and where it will fit and aim for the skies.
