NEW YEAR RESOLUTIONS of 2018
When everyone is making new year resolutions, act wisely. Choose the best ones and get the most of it. Prove to be a winner and glory will be all yours.
1) Make a list of your strength and weaknesses:
Generally what happens, before applying for a job or joining a company people aren’t even aware of what are their strength and weaknesses. So make a list of the same, this will help you in knowing yourself, and accordingly apply for the job
2) Job complementary to your personality
After you’re done with your list, figure out the Job which suits you the best. It would certainly be easier for you to get the Job which requires the characteristics inbuilt in your personality
3) Job contradictory to your personality
If you’re determined and focused on one particular company/Job/ Position, and somewhat you lack some features essential for it, you can accordingly work for it. On a practical note it’ll take time but eventually, you’ll get what you dreamt of
4) Set monthly/weekly/daily goals
People tend to follow this practice for a period of one or two months, and in search of instant results, this planning fails. You need to understand that if you want to achieve big, patience is the only key. Achievements are the results of thousands of small efforts hidden behind. So plan yourself and your day, make every hour productive
5) Develop a hobby
Hobby doesn’t imply that you need to have a creative side in you, but anything that relaxes you can be your hobby. For example- Painting can be your hobby but it doesn’t require that you must be good at it. Rather it signifies your learning capacity and openness towards creativity and innovation
6) Cast yourself in a routine
Corporate life is hectic. You need to be passionate as well as disciplined to cope up with that. It isn’t a matter of a day or a week that you’ll suddenly get into that routine even if you get the Job rather you’ll feel frustrated. So it’s better that, in the early 20s of yours you get yourself either involved or get used to working and taking pressure on a daily basis.
7) Gather work experience
A work experience doesn’t need to be going to a corporate office, managing files and attending meetings. It can be anything where u work under somebody, achieve targets and know how to work in a team. This gives you a teaser of the real cinema you’re going to be a part of.
8) Be a leader
People often confuse leader with a dictator or someone who’s popular or whose opinion people want to hear. I would say be a leader of yourself, have an opinion about what’s going on, but be well aware of it, it isn’t necessary that people will agree to it, but at least you won’t be a follower.
9) Get off social media and back in the game of work because social media is a tool, not a job
Once you upload your credentials, get back out into the real world. Limit your time on social media to a few minutes a day at specified times, such as before going to work, during your lunch break, or at home in the evening. Social media isn’t a job, it’s a tool. A contractor doesn’t live for his hammer. He or she put it to work building things.
10) Apply cautiously
The application form sometimes doesn’t even get a minute of the HR, so while applying put your best foot forward. Mention the highest and most recent as well relevant degree you’ve achieved. Clearly and boldly mention the additional skills you’ve acquired previously. If you have a work experience, it should form the most important part of your resume because it certainly places you higher above the freshers
