My friend has simply resigned himself to settle for having a job that he does not like in order to pay his bills. And it's not the only one. Today, 80% of professionals hate their jobs or simply go to work hoping that the day will pass as quickly as possible.
But today I want to focus on the other 20%. In those professionals who have a job that motivates them and that they like. And more specifically, within that 20%, in those professionals who have managed to succeed in their work. In that 1% who have achieved the perfect job, they earn a salary that many would only dream of, and they do not want to retire because they simply love what they do.
The owner of a family business that sold chocolate, which he had been building for the past 40 years, decided to retire one day. So he gathered his two sons to tell them who would take over the company.
- "Children, I thought a lot about this decision and I want Pablo (the younger brother) to take over the family business." - said the father.
Luis, the eldest son was very upset:
- "Father, I do not understand your decision. I have more experience than my brother, I've been in this business for years, I know how it works. I can do better than him. "- he replied.
So the father told him:
- "Very good. Let's do the following. Come both to find me when you have an idea for a new chocolate flavor. Talk to our suppliers and discover in what new flavors we can invest. "
The eldest son agreed, made some calls and returned with a smile saying:
- "We can develop new products with flavors such as raspberry, coconut and pistachio. They will be a success! You see how I am the one who should run the company "
The father smiled and asked his youngest son what he had found out.
This was his son's response:
- "Father, Luis has had a good idea. Indeed, those flavors can be a success. So I've asked you to budget for all the flavors. Right now, raspberries and coconuts are the cheapest options, however they hardly have pistachio.
On the other hand, I have spoken with the financial department and we have budgets to buy raspberries and coconuts, but not pistachio. So I would wait to get that flavor next year, when we check the success of the other two and have enough to market it. I have already put the lawyers to draft the wholesale purchase contracts "
The brother looked at the father. The father smiled and his older son nodded.
If you want to become part of that 1% of professionals, and be successful in the work, these are the 10 aspects that you must meet:
# 1 Dedicate yourself to something that you're passionate about
Steve Jobs defined it perfectly. If you love what you do, you do it well .
If you have read " the 7 habits of highly effective people " by Stephen Covey, you will know that it is a book aimed at transforming you into a proactive person. And the first habit is "start with an end in mind".
Starting with an end in mind means knowing what you want. And when we talk about work, it's about knowing how to define the work of your dreams .
Once you have clear your vision of what you want, is when you start to take the steps to get it.
Therefore, proactive people first define what they want, and get jobs according to their principles and their personality.

# 2 Take the initiative
Most people do not go beyond what they demand. They act like the older brother of the previous story.
Maybe you also do the same. You try to finish your work as quickly as possible and making the minimum effort.
Do you think that limiting yourself to complying with what you are asked for is a good way to succeed in your work?
If you wait for them to always tell you what to do, you are giving control of your work and your professional future to others.
# 3 Leads
The previous story is an example of leadership.
The leader brings together a series of qualities that are essential for a company to succeed:
- They motivate their teams.
- They empathize with their bosses, colleagues, clients and employees.
- They transmit confidence and security.
- They foster a positive environment.
- They challenge the status quo and the ability of their teams to exceed expectations over and over again.
- They establish clear and precise objectives.
- They work as a team.
- They do not wait at the right moment, they create it.
- If you want to be successful at work, become a leader. Stop being a mere spectator who is limited to doing what they say. Take a step forward and take control of your work and your life.
conclusion
The best advice to succeed at work is to be proactive.
Proactivity arises naturally when you do what you love, take the initiative and decide to become a leader.
