1. Your IQ is irrelevant
More and more studies are demonstrating that success is not as strongly correlated with IQ as we once believed. What matters more than IQ? Grit is, in the words of Angela Lee Duckworth, "the drive and determination to keep going for your goals."
2. Your toolbox does not include the abilities you were born with
Your potential is far greater than your natural talents. They may provide clues as to the course your career will follow, but they in no way define your ability. Carol Dweck discusses the value of a growth mindset in her TED Talk, arguing that those who think they can become better and that their abilities aren't fixed are more likely to find success in their endeavours.
3. A measurement system is required
We all create goals, but few of us are aware that the real secret to goal setting is to regularly track your progress and solicit feedback. Setting goals and tracking your progress will guarantee progress.
4. No formula exists
At some time, you might hear that if you do xyz, you'll succeed. That may have been the case in the past, but in today's dynamic environment, success requires a much more original approach. Initially, decide what success means to you. You can choose a route that will lead to personal fulfilment using that definition to guide you.
5. Give happiness first consideration
Being content at work is now a requirement, not simply a nice-to-have. According to recent studies, those who are happier at work are 12% more productive and work more creatively and collaboratively.
6. Invest time in getting to know yourself
The secret to identifying your genius and understanding how to focus your efforts is understanding your primary abilities. According to Amy Cuddy, having a strong sense of presence that you can depend on can help you succeed and achieve your goals in all area of your life.
7. Strive for failure rather than merely accepting it
Success is heavily influenced by one's capacity to learn from failure, as Carol Dweck points out in her studies. You'll become more brave and persistent in your pursuit of the achievement you desire once you learn to accept failure.
8. Be aware of your goal
A core difficulty in your life is connected to your specific and unique purpose in life and at work. Knowing your purpose will give you newfound energy and motivation that other external influences cannot provide.
9. Check to see if your influence on other people is consistent with the impact you want to have
Adam Grant asserts that knowing how your work affects other people and the advantages it brings to them makes you happier and more effective at work. Think about the ideal effect you want to make on individuals as a next step. How can you transform your career or make this influence at work?
10. Stop caring what other people say
Ohio State University psychologist Jennifer Crocker discovered that basing decisions and self-worth on what other people think can have negative effects on both your physical and mental health. Instead, concentrate on developing an internal sense of worth based on your morals
