The Importance of Being... Smart


You would not believe how many people there are who have awesome jobs and don't deserve them. It's not fair, but it's true... a lot of people get their jobs because of great family connections or lots of money. But with this luck you encounter one major probem: motivation. Many people don't get where they want to in their career because they don't understand that you have to work twice as hard once you get the job. You have to improve yourself and show you deserve a promotion.
If you truly want to excel in any industry you have to know what the hell you are talking about! Watch the news, read the classics, go to bars and make friends, and for God's sake... travel! There is nothing more appealing than a well-versed, well-read, worldly job applicant. So even if you don't have the money, get out there,meet people, travel... go to Europe! Use the sites to the left to get you started.
