Best Career Advice To Follow in 2015


1. BE AN INNOVATIVE THINKER

2. BROADEN YOUR SKILLS 

 "Don't go to fast. People have to go to school, learn their craft, and build a brand. That's the right healthy way to do things. If you're an overnight sensation,  you can be yesterday's news in no time, whereas building something slowly and carefully that has quality and value, that's what's going to have legs." -Anna Wintour

5. SILENCE NEGATIVITY

 I made a conscious decsion not to tell anyone in my life. Now I tell people- don't tell anyone your idea until you have invested enough of yourself in it that you are not going to turn back. When a person has an idea at that conception moment it is the most vulnerable- one negative comment could knock you off course."

You need to continue to listen to others,  be humble, and realize that you’re just at the beginning right now, and it’s all about continuous learning."
