~How To Be Sucessful In Life~

        First of all,let's define "Successful In Life". Does it mean that we must be rich and driving big cars and staying in big mansions? Some material wealth is important but to be considered successful in life means one is happy,healthy and able to do what one wants and is looked up to by family and friends. So,how does one reach the stage of being considered successful in life? As you will be entering the adult working world. I hope some tips on how to be successful people will be helpful.


        Firstly,to be  successful you must be focused and know yourself. Examine what you enjoy doing most,the talents or skills you have and work hard at whatever is meaningful to you. Tailor these to the courses you will be taking in college with the career you intend to follow.Gel them together and work out a winning formula.


        In life,we must have certain standards especially in our work. Set a high standard and demand this from others. When you work in a group,make the others aware of your standards and expectations. Compromise only when it is absolutely necessary.


       Go the extra mile and make the difference to help others. This is what sets successful people apart from others. Doing little things like returning phone calls sending thank you cards and making the effort to communicate with others make people remember and respect you. This is an ingredient that goes into making you a successful person.


       I'm sure you will agree with me that with success comes responsibility. When you were appointed a school prefect,president of a society or class monitor,you felt a sense of responsibility to your school and fellow school mates. In the adult working world,the same scenario applies. Carry out your duties and do your work responsibly with concern for fellow workers. That is the mark of a successful person.


       I hope I have impressed on you the proper steps to take to be considers successful. Let me take this opportunity to wish you all the best in the coming exam and your coming of age in the adult working world. ^_^
