Untold Five Career Strategies for Young Aspirants and Workaholics

I’ve always been fascinated with people who became super successful at an early age.

Not just millionaires and billionaires.

I’m talking people who figured it all out while others are still trying to “get their life together.” People who jump out of bed every morning, looking forward to going to work. People who seemed to have “skipped the line” in their careers without paying their dues like everyone else.

Some say that these people just got lucky.

The truth is, there are a few things that they know that the rest of us are still trying to figure out.

Today, I’m going to share some of those strategies with you my beloved viewers through this article.

1. You don't need to take care of your obligations

“You don’t have to go through point B to get from A to C anymore.” — Daniel DiPazza

When we graduate school, many of us just take whatever job we can get. We might do the whole “resume blasting” thing and try to get a job that is somewhat intriguing as well as identified with what we contemplated.

What's more, from that point we can move gradually up.

But in reality, with the right methodology, you can easy route your direction to your dream job.

Francine Lee did a write-up where she re-designed Dropbox photos, and ended up getting a job there. “Years of experience” is just a proxy for the value that you can bring.

In the event that you can do the work before you land on your dream job, and demonstrate that you can carry worth to the table, then, at that point, you can alternate your way to the top, without having to blast out a thousand resumes.

2. Don’t be realistic, alter your reality instead

Your reality is based on your perception. What's more, your insight is a component of what you've been presented to.

A kid from a poor family might think it’s unrealistic to get a job a company like Microsoft because he hasn’t seen anyone do it.

A girl from a middle class family may believe it's ridiculous to construct 1,000,000 dollar business since she hasn't seen anybody do it.

A millionaire might think it’s unrealistic to be a billionaire because he hasn’t seen anyone do it.

If you don’t know what it takes to get to the place you want to go, that dream is unrealistic for you.

Yet, you can change that reality by investing your valuable time to get what goes into those fantasies.

Read books. Listen to podcasts. Consume as much information as you can from the people you admire. Surround yourself with the people you want to be like.

You'll ultimately begin to think like them. In the long run, their world will be yours. And eventually, their reality will be yours.

3. Pick a mentor over higher pay

All of us in our 20s are basically competing to see who can impress other people the fastest.

Furthermore, generally that implies working at some organization that individuals have known about, or taking in substantial income.

It’s tougher to get people to respect you based on the trajectory thatyou’re on. But in reality, that’s the only thing that matters. As Jeff Bezos said,

“I always tell people, if we have a good quarter it’s because of the work we did three, four, and five years ago. It’s not because we did a good job this quarter.” — Jeff Bezos

Same thing applies to your life.

Life is long. Getting an additional a ten or 20,000 dollars a year won't make any difference much in ten years.

But the lessons you learn from the right mentor will.

4. There is no “passion” for you to find

“Passion isn’t found.

It’s cultivated.” — Cal Newport

We've been educated for our entire lives that on the off chance that we simply consider every option enough, if we just do enough “soul searching”, then we’ll find our passion and everything else will become clear.

Not true at all.

I had so many different interests early on.

I liked to write, read, research, create things, make things more efficient, and solve problems just to name a few.

What job would tie all of those in?

Maybe law? Medicine? Lab research? Computer programming? Marketing?

What if I chose marketing, realized I hated it, and wanted to do something totally different later?

Ugh. It was all so confusing.

Many of us find ourselves in this position at some point, and we procrastinate on choosing a direction because we’re afraid of picking the wrong one.

The truth is, there is no “right” or “wrong” decision.

Pick something that sounds interesting and get good at it. Then, you’ll become passionate.

5. Successful people are more risk averse than you think

The media seems to make people look like “overnight successes.”

So we tend to think that they take big risks. That they “make the leap” and hope that it works out.

Thetruth is, successful people are actually pretty risk averse.

They test everything on a “micro-level,” and only make big decisions when they can practically guarantee that it’ll work out.

But it isn’t sexy to show what they do behind the scenes, so no one sees it.

Don’t take too many risks. Find the most practical way to get to where you want to go.

That’s how you get ahead of everyone else.
