Seven things you can do right now to help your career(1)
Most career advice you receive focuses on the big picture: how to get ahead, how to “win”, and such things that are on a much larger scale than the daily grind 1 that most of us face. In fact, it is that day to day grind that pulls down many of us-we go to work, come home exhausted 2, and often feel as though we’re just spinning our wheels.
If you want to get ahead in your career and in your life, you need to start small and look at the immediate 3 things you can do to help out your situation. If you’re sitting out there at your desk, tiredly wondering if there’s something better that you can be doing with your life, start with these seven tips that you can start executing immediately that will lead you down a path towards a better career.
1.Make a list that all the thing you did today, this week or this month to help your organizaton and file them away.
Whenever you have a few spare moments, make a list of all of the things you are actually doing at work. Date them and provide specific examples. When you’ve made this list, drop it in a folder 4 and let it sit there until your next performance review-or the next time you ask for a raise or a promotion 5.
2. Send a thank-you note.
If you’ve recently been assisted in your career or personal development by someone, spend a few moments and send that person a handwritten thank-you note. The respect, kindness, and personal touch of a handwritten thank you creates an indelible positive mark in your favor in the recipient’s mind, which can do nothing but help you out in the long run.
3. Work on your written skills.
Starting a blog related to a work-related topic that interests you is a good way to practice your skills. Don’t be lazy with it, though.Focus on writing strong material that will engage others, because without it, you’re not really improving your skills at all.
