1. Optimize the learning process, not the salary and role.
A high salary is a by-product of a valuable role.
A valuable role is a byproduct of valuable skills.
And valuable skills are the byproduct of valuable learning.
👉So focus on learning first.
2. Hard work is overrated. Consistency is underrated.
It doesn't matter how hard you swing the bat.
It's important that you keep swinging it over and over again until you can hit the ball out of the park.
👉Consistency reaches places where hard work will not take you.
3. You gain confidence after you do something difficult, not before.
Too many people never try difficult things because they think confidence is a prerequisite, when in fact it is a side effect.
4. GOALS ARE Nonsense
Successful and unsuccessful people have the same goals.
You will never rise to the level of your goals. You always fall to the level of your habits.
👉Goals are just dreams. Habits turn them into reality.
5. LEARNING IS THE MAIN META-SKILL
Life is too short to learn everything from personal experience.
Make friends with smart people and read as much as you can.
👉Learn virtually by reading the works and experiences of other people.
6. Choose a company in a growing industry.
Opportunities are hard to find in companies in a shrinking industry—it's a zero-sum game.
Instead, choose a company that has huge potential for growth.
👉A rising tide lifts all boats (and the employees on that boat).
7. Advertise your work shamelessly.
Your job is to communicate the value and impact of your work 👉 no one else will do it for you.
8. A good manager is more important than a high salary.
A good manager will mentor you, support your progress, and accelerate your career. A bad manager will slow down your development and make your life miserable.
👉A good manager is the difference between a successful career and an unfulfilled one.
9. If you are not guilty, this does not mean that you are not responsible for it.
Take responsibility for your career. Never complain or blame others.
👉Everything you think and feel is your responsibility.
10. Social intelligence > IQ.
School is a single player game with clear instructions. Life is a multiplayer game without instructions.
👉Social intelligence is as important as IQ if you want to succeed in the real world.
YOUR LIFE IS IN YOUR HANDS!
