The Best Career Advice For Young People

The Future Of Work With Jacob Morgan

Here are my 5 best pieces of career advice for young people.

🥂Taste test When you are young in your career, most of the time you have no idea what you want to do. So try out different jobs before you commit. It’s important that you enjoy what you are doing.

💪Build your own ladder You don't have to follow the template that everybody tells you to follow. You can build your own career. The first step in doing this is to build your own personal brand.

✋Life is too short to be miserable Why would you want to spend any of your time being miserable? If you don’t like your job, do something about it.

🧭Make your own decisions There will be a lot of people who will tell you what they think you should do. You can take feedback of course, but the important thing is to make your own decisions. Ultimately, you have to do what makes sense for you. Nobody is going to look out for you.

👥Be self-aware You need to know your strengths and weaknesses. The more self-aware you become, the more growth and opportunities you’ll see.
