Advice:
–Be your authentic self. Listen to your inner compass and follow your heart. The answers usually lie within. There is no need to “follow the crowd.”
–Nothing beats honesty. Your reputation is everything, so think about that in your words and actions.
–Be a trustworthy person and one that can be counted on. Do what you say and say what you mean.
–Help others. We all need a helping hand and we are not in it alone. It will make you feel good too.
–Stay curious and keep learning.
Lastly, re: a career goal: Do something that you love and it will never feel like “work.” My boss, Warren Buffett, after more than 50 years heading Berkshire Hathaway, still “tapdances to work” every day. That’s the key to a happy and successful life.
