The LONG ROAD by Sandro Mancuso Recently watched Sandro Mancuso's insightful video on career choices, "The Long Road." Here are some key takeaways: 1. Sacrifice your time and energy. 2. Acknowledge the world's unfairness. 3. Invest your time wisely in what's important to you. 4. Take ownership of responsibilities instead of transferring them. 5. Successful people have a profession, not just a job. 6. A job is something you need to do, while a profession is a part of your life. 7. To be great at something, you need to love it. 8. Jobs are steps in our career. 9. A successful career combines cumulative and diverse experiences. 10. Sometimes, starting anew in a different direction is necessary. 11. When unsure, wait a bit before deciding. 12. Be cautious not to blindly follow trends; focus on what you truly want. 13. Good careers are intentionally designed. 14. Progress step by step, inspecting and adapting based on your goals. 15. Every conversation, talk, or encounter with new technology is a turning point. 16. Developers often find themselves pushed to do things they may not want to. 17. Distinguish between career progression and career change. 18. Avoid limiting yourself; don't define yourself solely by your current technology or role. 19. There are two types of specialization: Generalization and Specialization, each with its merits. 20. Ask yourself, "Who am I as a professional?" 21. Companies may reward skills learned for the company, but focus on developing transferable skills. 22. Treat your career as your own company; invest in it and expect returns. 23. Know when it's time to leave a company if your path diverges from your career goals. 24. Instead of criticizing, strive to change your company for the better. 25. In the developer world, you can choose your path. 26. To find your dream job: a) Know what you want. b) Apply directly, avoiding recruiters. c) Understand the difference between "A job" and "The job." 27. Great teams want great people, and companies that care about their development teams have good processes. 28. Stay at the top of your game to join a good team. 29. Don't expect companies to provide time for learning; take ownership of your career development. 30. You can't always change your environment, but you can choose who you surround yourself with. 31. Prioritize learning, and you'll never have a problem with money in our industry. 32. Expose yourself to new experiences and ideas. 33. Balance breadth and depth in your skills; being a master of none can be risky. 34. Own your career; don't let a company dictate your learning path. #CareerDevelopment #ProfessionalGrowth #SandroMancuso #CareerAdvice

Let's connect Shameem Pariyanghat 🇮🇳🇦🇪 9 year ago, my career began with just 2 bags, books, documents, and 4-5 office dresses. I shared a room with another person, facing the challenge of finding accommodation in areas that didn't rent to bachelors, those early days shaped lasting friendships. Today, many former roommates are integral to my life. 😅 Traveling in non-AC train coaches with hard-printed tickets, anxiously checking PNR statuses and train charts. 😅 Never experiencing AC until living with roommates. The early career phase is universally challenging. Can you relate? How were your career beginnings? #Nostalgia #JobLife #CareerBeginnings

Career changers: the "leap" isn't always what you think it is. When you're feeling stuck or unhappy at work, even the smallest effort can seem like an impossible step. After all, you're fed up, tired and your confidence is at an all-time low. It can feel like there's a 50-foot leap of faith 🐧🐧🐧 between where you are now and where you want to be. But what if that leap could be approached in stages rather than in one go? And the first stage is simply to decide: I am going in a new direction. This week I am going to turn myself around and run towards something new. I am going to switch my focus from everything I loathe about my existing role to finding and pursuing the career I have wanted for so long. I will make this a priority. Because truly, the first leap in the case of career change is an internal one. Would you agree? --- P.S. If you need help with the "finding and pursuing" part, book a career change discovery call with me using the link under my name. One small step in a new direction! https://lnkd.in/dUza7i6m

Embracing the Power of Starting: To Begin, Begin. In the journey of achieving our goals and realizing our dreams, the first and most crucial step is to simply begin. Oftentimes, the fear of failure or the overwhelming nature of a task can hold us back from taking that initial step. However, it is important to remember that even the longest and most challenging.... https://ift.tt/GvQoYTf

Yesterday, watching Jannik Sinner become the first Italian man to win the US Open Champion was inspiring, but one quote he said in his post-tournament speech hit home for me: "The work never stops. I know I can still improve but you have to be proud of what you have and then work for the rest." This mindset applies perfectly to anyone striving for career growth. Here are 5 ways to make this relevant for your journey: *Celebrate your wins, no matter the size. Take a moment to appreciate how far you’ve come. *Always look to learn more. There's no limit to the skills you can acquire. No matter your job, you are getting paid to learn something. *Reflect on what’s working… what got you here? Identify those strengths and keep refining them. *After celebrating your progress, set new goals. What challenge are you tackling next? *Balance pride with humility… be proud of your success, but always stay open to learning and improving. Feel like you could use a career boost?

Achievement isn’t a finish line... It’s a continuous journey moulded by introspection and refined through action. Many chase after the illusory gold of instant success, forgetting that true wealth lies in persistent growth. Reflect deeply, act purposefully. Remember: Growth and comfort do not coexist. To reach new heights, you must embrace discomfort. #ThinkPositiveAndDifferently #SAFcreatingSmiles #OSAMconsultants www.osamconsultants.com
