8 Ways To Accelerate Your Career In The Future Of Work

Success is liking yourself, liking what you do, and liking how you do it.” – Maya Angelou

Accelerating your career and achieving your definition of career success will be a journey that is unique to you. However, there are some guiding principles which can speed up career growth for all kinds of careers, especially in the future of work, where careers are increasingly non-linear and unpredictable. 

Career acceleration is a result of consistently applying these principles. It’s like feeding your career with the right high-powered nutrition, which will ensure power growth and a healthy career. So what are the components of this career boosting diet?

  • Developing powerful habits: We are what we repeatedly do. Excellence, then is not an act, but a habit. Over the long run, career growth is about habits of success. In fact it is said that no one can take an elevator to career success, you have to take the stairs instead. The stairs are an analogy for the habits which slowly and steadily advance you towards career success. Taking the stairs requires a little bit of effort applied consistently over time, just like what it takes to develop habits. The habits could range from exercise and eating and sleeping on time, to habits for increasing mindfulness and habits for practicing downtime from social media and smartphones. It is well known that a 1% improvement done consistently amounts to a 37% improvement over a year, because of the power of compounding. While these habits may not look as glamorous a contributor to career success as maybe developing strategic networks, these habits make all the difference to supercharging your productivity and creativity. And career success is about your productivity and creativity applied to greater and more complex goals.

    Developing powerful habitsHabits are the key to supercharging your productivity and creativity

    So apply these principles to get your career into a sustainable growth path and the results will speak for themselves.
