If 2022 is not your best year ever, here are 5 life lessons you need to know to get you there.
1. Personal Responsibility. The reality is no one owes us a living and the world is unfair. The sooner you accept this, the sooner you can build the life you want. Sure, you can complain that someone else got the lucky breaks, or that your boss is difficult or that you worked harder than your colleague who just got the promotion. But complaining about it is not going to change a thing. Accepting personal responsibility for the failure empowers you to start taking control of what is happening in your life and do what you need to do to make it different.
2. Take Action. Life is about taking action. You can sit on your couch and plan and strategise all you want. However, unless you turn your plans into action, nothing changes. If you want that dream job, you need to do what it takes to get it. Send that resume, take the courses that qualify you for the job, cold-call the boss or network with the people in the industry. Taking action is what makes things happen.
