35 years old is the late stage of youth, after 35 years old is the harvest season, if you are not qualified to say this, you will hate yourself. So before 35, in the rosy, vigorous years of youth, you'd better get the following ten things right:
First, learn everything you need to know and develop in this industry. By the time he was 35, the late parts king, Brittain, had become a leader in the parts industry and had formed Gulf & Western Industries, which had annual revenues in the tens of millions of dollars. Everyone may have stayed up all night studying when they were young, and that's fine in your 20s or even 30s, but at 35, you shouldn't be struggling to learn the basics. 35 is the age when you're engaged in the primitive phase of accumulation, and 35 is the age when you're ready to flourish.
Second, develop a personal style. Before the age of 35, find out what you like, whether it's clothes or hobbies, even if it's just a little habit that makes a difference. 20s and 30s you can keep trying and changing, but at 35, you need to clearly establish a personal style. A man or woman who changes his or her image in the middle of his or her career can be perceived as unreliable. Do you like wearing suits? Good! Make the suit your trademark! Will flowers on your desk make you more productive at work? Then put some flowers on your desk every day!
Third, peace and stability in your love life. When you are climbing the career ladder, if your personal life is not happy and you are in a relationship crisis, it will be very disturbing to you and you may even lose interest in other things. Those who have a peaceful and stable private life by the age of 35 generally have a better chance of success than those who have a turbulent life. Therefore, if you want to end a fruitless relationship or if you want to marry your girlfriend, then act quickly before you put off the problem until the 35th spring of your life. After 35, you should focus on watching your investment in your career begin to profit.
Fourth, understand your shortcomings. Recognize that there are some things you really can't or won't do well. If you hate numbers and love creating, then don't force yourself to do digital work because it pays well or conforms to other people's expectations. Make sure you commit to the kind of work you love and are good at until you're 35. Otherwise, there is bound to be a period of depression after 35. And, true success may be lost as vigor fades.
Fifth, know your strengths. You should know what you're good at and be clear about the things you enjoy doing and do better than others. No matter what role you currently hold, knowing your strengths is important for success.
Sixth, stock up on money to quit your job and find another career. In a changing professional world where you may not work in one place forever, or drench yourself in one position forever, you're likely to think about quitting your job or starting a second career when you feel like you can't make it work, and if you've saved up enough money beforehand, you'll have a secure backstop.
Seventh, build a network of relationships. If you haven't built a solid network by the age of 35, you're in trouble. This network includes your friends, loved ones, and at the very least all the people who can help each other. Some of these people are your coworkers, some have received favors from you, some you have listened to their problems, and some you share the same hobbies with. Networking doesn't happen overnight; it takes years or even a decade to cultivate. One's success in career and life is actually like the success of a political party, you have to have many people scattered in the right places, you can rely on them and they can rely on you.
Eighth, learn to empower others. Many people won't or can't do this, and are therefore consistently pegged in subordinate positions. Delegating to others is half the battle, and someone who can't delegate their work to others is doomed to encounter great obstacles. By the age of 35, you should ideally be an expert in this area. In other words, you know how to pick the right people and trust them.
Ninth, learn when to keep your mouth shut. More people ruin their careers by speaking carelessly than by losing success for any other reason. Learn to keep quiet and look witty and people will naturally think you know more than you really do. Don't gossip about other people, don't talk about your own big plans, the reputation you gain by keeping your mouth shut is far more valuable than what comes from gossiping. The more successful you are in your career, the more important this becomes.
Tenth, be loyal to people. If you fail to establish a rock-solid reputation for loyalty by the age of 35, this shortcoming will haunt you for the rest of your life. The notoriety of disloyalty will inevitably make you unpopular everywhere in your career. You can not rely on backstabbing people to climb to the top of the career, but to rely on the early establishment of a sincere upright and unshakeable reputation. 35 years old, loyalty is only an investment; 35 years old, you will be a person who can be trusted to receive the return of loyalty .
