10 tips how to become a careerist

Careerist called the man who, in addition to his work focuses more on how to build your career. In my understanding of the climber - is the one who takes care of his career, as well as any other person cares about their health.

How to become a careerist? This issue is of concern to many people who are dissatisfied with their careers. I like HR for 10 years has grown more than one climber, so willing to share the secrets of how it's done. Moreover, the company also like careerists as they move business forward. Steve Jobs, Bill Gates, Elon Musk, Richard Branson - all of them are careerists as their regular care moving forward.

1. Choose an inspirational goal

Generally climber - it's not about a comfortable lifestyle and improve their living conditions. Ambitious would not dream to change his Ford Focus on the Volkswagen Passat. Step too small to create tension and energy of motion. Ambitious dreams of a luxurious Porsche Cayenne. Come on, pick your cool car, to host in the Facebook photo, and write "Goal 2020".

2. Get out of the comfort zone

Many successful people in their careers once were thrown by the wayside: they Got fired, Thrown by the husband or wife, they lost their apartment due to the mortgage and so on. Their day is so washed out of your comfort zone, that being there for a long time, they used to not be afraid of difficulties and challenge fate.

Start small and build momentum. Give up right now from sugar, coffee, and a lift.

3. Read books about other careerists

We have not yet written a good book about building a successful career (I plan to make up for this deficiency by end of the year, but for now there is only training), so read the book about entrepreneurs who have created themselves. Almost 99% of their experience can be passed on to your career. Start with books that can be read very easily: Evgeny ChichvarkinRichard Branson, Steve Jobs, Sam Walton, Elon Musk.

4. Look for your talent

All careerists one thing in common: they have found their talent and because of him succeed. Jobs was a fan of the design, Gates - prudently botanist, Branson - extravagant. Exactly the same with them, and businesses. Talent can not be copied, can only find their own unique. But that is not enough. Still need to learn to apply it in real life or career. The situation is complicated by the fact that we ourselves can not recognize it.

Talent - the ability to make it very easy to work, which is given to the other is difficult or not at all under the force. Mozart could write before the concert that the others could not write for years.

How do you know your talent? To begin, write down everything that you are asked to make friends, acquaintances, relatives, colleagues, boss. Obviously, it does best.

5. Compete

You always have to compete with those who are close by. Especially where it comes to your talents and interests. Careerist can not play to their colleagues. He must look for ways to circumvent them. No matter what you do, you've got to be better than the same people as you. Determine what the main gauge of success in your profession, and compare your results with others. Constantly try to be the best.

6. Do some sports

I find it hard to imagine a successful career in a person who is not involved in sports. Sports trains gives energy, improves appearance. The mere participation in sports by itself is capable of providing a more rapid career advancement and salary increases. And along with the rest of the tips - so simply complete synergy.

7. Once in 6-12 months Ask career or salary increases

That it was not like that joke:

A very religious man for 20 years, every day prayed to the Lord, so that he gave him to win the lottery. But his prayers were in vain. And once he raised his head to the sky gray and tearfully asked the Lord:

- Oh, God, if I have not pleaded with you, if I did not serve you, if I did not lead a righteous zhin, why you did not give me what I've been asking you?

The heavens opened, and the Lord said to him:

- Buy in the end, at least one lottery ticket!

You can endlessly to develop themselves and to try, but if you just do not talk with the head of his development or is not looking for another job, if all the opportunities for growth in the company exhausted - not up career go. Not one Einstein burned on the job, where you had to simply transfer papers from one pile to another. Remember: in the end the employer should not be interested in your ongoing development. Sometimes he needed just the average employee in the current position.

8. Prepare yourself to take risks

Ambitious very often faced with the need to take risks for the sake of a more interesting job or a higher salary. This risk is not always justified, but, when justified, rewards for all the unsuccessful attempts. You have to be ready mentally, psychologically and financially to quit his job and old haunt for a new call.

9. Prepare your family

You can endlessly to prepare yourself and customize, but what's the point, if a phrase of your close family member, "Do not rock the boat" can destroy your career. Work with the family, we see the need for their development, look for common interests with their family members, persuade, sell, beg and plead. Only with the support of the family you will achieve success.

10. Cut a path of retreat

Very often you need to succeed not just keep the selection. Mortgages, birth of a child, a signed statement on the dismissal of a very well stimulate go forward without looking back. In this case, much better if everything happens planning and under your control than suddenly in the most inopportune moment.

People with a salary of 500 and 2 000 dollars is distinguished not a different number of arms, legs, eyes, and other things, and the number of packed cones and conclusions. If tomorrow you will continue to do the same thing today, guess what will be the result? We are taught in school is not wrong (remember that damn red pen?) And eventually made us obedient biorobots. In fact our whole life - it's 10 errors, one of which leads to the correct solution. Here's how to start-ups: 10 running only one will be more or less successful. To undertake as many actions that wormed those 10% success among the failures. Good luck!
