*ring ring* "Hello?" "Hi there! I noticed you were sitting there doing nothing and was very impressed with your work ethic, I would love to offer you a job at my agency!" - Said nobody ever. To get anywhere in life you need to have some self initiative. You initiated a want for education, you've initiated the time and energy towards your study for however many years, do you really think a job will be handed to you on a silver platter? Unfortunately not. Self initiative is an attractive aspect in people, if you are able to go out there and do something at your own will, imagine the possibilities of what you could do when you have the initiative handed to you! at least this is what prospective employers might think. Not only is this useful for getting yourself prioritised in the job market, but your life could be positively influenced by it. Do what makes you happy, or go out and do something necessary to get you to your happy place. This blog is something I've self initiated, with no reward in it for me other than a personal achievement. It's helped me realise that you don't always have to do work in order to get something back in return. Do work for the love of what you do rather than for the financial, social or educational reward, and you will be rewarded in a whole new way. |
