"It is stupid to make a Job you don't like, just because he's in the personal CV. This is not a bit like you would wait with Sex until your old age?“ The comparison comes from the Investor Warren Buffett. He thinks you should work, what is it that makes a great joy, which corresponds to the own Talent and their own inclinations.

2. You are not a "needy" applicant."In a sense, most of the applicants like beggars – they accept everything and voters are," said the successful author David J. Schwartz. Yes! Go with respect and upright in a job interview! Try not to talk at any cost your To to the mouth, because he will interpret as a weakness, and his respect for them diminish. You should show that you want the Job really, but you are not allowed to act needy, as if they were necessarily dependent on it. You make polite, but also self-consciously questions.
The representative of the company that you are applying for, you should get the feeling that not only him, but the company must also apply to them. If you are creating this feeling in your Opposite, increase immensely your chances of getting the Job. When applying for a Job it is so how to attract a woman: A man is for a woman more attractive when she has the feeling that this is also sought after by other women and that you have to strain a little to get him. The needy applicants have, however, always difficult when you love to advertise, such as during a job interview. the
3. You see your boss as your most important customer!this tip comes from a successful author, Brian Tracy: "On-the-job, your boss is your primary customer. Your ability to make him happy, has more influence on your future, your income and your career than anything else you can do. You can contact each other on the feet – if your boss is satisfied with you, is your Job secure.“
Tracy says, of course, that you should talk to your boss after the mouth, because the majority of superiors would not appreciate. No Manager is ridge real respect in front of a Yes-man without return and without your own opinion. When Tracy says, your boss is your primary customer, then that is something else. Please consider for a Moment: do you really Know exactly what you expect of them? If Yes: how do you know? Have you talked to him specifically about that?
Here's a suggestion: Write down the ten things that you believe that you are your boss's most important to you. And then arrange the conversation with him and ask him to give for each activity or property on this list, a score – from 1 for "less important" up to 10 "of paramount importance". You tell your boss that you wanted to get ahead and improve yourself and all that you put the priorities right. Your boss will appreciate it, because in a survey of Board members or Directors in accordance with the "ideal employee" most of them answered that the most important skill an employee is to set the right priorities.
4. Do not freeze, they work in routine!Werner Otto was one of the richest Germans, and founded the Otto group. He once said: "those Who stand in his tasks, who has only learned the Routine of the once Achieved remains, who is not possessed of the enthusiasm for the further development, it is difficult for us. Because we always build to the future.“ Also you remain in your profession in the learned Routine? Or are you possessed "by the enthusiasm for the development"? If you do your Job properly, they will maintain, provided your company is economically well – your Job probably. A lot more you can expect. You want to earn significantly more than today, and in your company's upgrade, then that is not enough.
you Have lately developed new ideas on how your company can make more money? You have introduced ideas for new products or business areas? They have developed ideas on how to find great new employees? You have won a new customer for your company? Have you made suggestions on how your company can save on costs? Don't you think all this is "your job"? Exactly this way of thinking, it is not, the result is that most of the employees rise and your salary is not as developed as you wish it to be.
5. You have to learn to delegate!The entrepreneur John Davidson Rockefeller, Sr., the richest man in history – even richer than it is today, Jeff Bezos, Bill Gates or Warren Buffett was. The secret of its success: "I work on the principle that you should never do something yourself, what can someone do differently for one." You want to have success in their professional life, then you need to learn to delegate. Ask for each activity: "the only I, or this could also be done with a other employees, for example, someone who buys a lower salary?" If you do, for example, things that might as well have your assistant, then you are wasting the company's money and you are wasting your time.
Why is it so many people find it hard to delegate? A popular excuse is: "Until I explained, it takes so long, then I could do the same for yourself." It is true that Sometimes it takes even longer to explain something to someone than to do it yourself. If he has learned, however, and it is then do not Once, but a hundred Times, then the time has paid off for you. Some people are not willing to accept that a thing you do not do it themselves, may not be made just as well as if you'd done it yourself. It is better to accept you will learn that some things are made in such a case, only to about 90 per cent – but what is often completely sufficient. You then have more time to do things, which is a higher value-added mean for your company.
6. Do not confuse busyness with more efficient work!The best-selling author Timothy Ferriss warns us not to confuse busyness with effective work by: "busyness is a Form of laziness – laziness of thought and choice-free. Drowning In work is as unproductive how to do nothing – and it is far more unpleasant.“ Many employees measure their own contribution to the company, how long you work, how busy you are, how much you swirl. No customer, and only the less intelligent supervisors measure their employees.
you have probably heard that 20 percent of your activities account for 80 percent of the success of responsible. So you should find out what the 20 percent are and then carefully focus on. In the vast majority of people who do not come in the life of law, it is not because they do too little, and too lazy, but that they do too many useless things and too little of what really lead to the results that make all the difference.
