CONFIDENCE BUILDING- 2

 CONFIDENCE BUILDING- 2

What has gone wrong? The answer is --nothing went right along the course of this form of education. 

What is the remedy?

The foremost requirement for anyone to improve self is to ‘concede’ that precious little is known. [Tall scores are not true pointers of ‘comprehension’]. Any improvement, of self needs to identify all domains that should be refurbished in right earnest.

It could be your professional  domain WHERE ‘UPDATING’ MUST BE  carried out periodically, without  taking a ‘relaxed stand ‘ that I graduated just three months ago.

Please remember that the syllabi prescribed in most plans are not vibrantly updated and they generally cater to essential basics. So, to be among the real good contenders, one has to make personal efforts of ‘knowledge acquisition’ at least in specific domains of your job interest.

There is a basic defect among job hunters in presuming that your job providers graduated several years ago and that they may not be updated. Please keep in mind that they being themselves in the industry, the senior bosses are professionally updated in application of work strategies while graduates know only theory and not its true application.

They would easily peg your functional defects. So, updating for job is to be alert about functional upkeep in application of technology and not in scoring marks by repetition of set phrases defending a theory.

The second component that deserves attention is our ‘ability to communicate’.  It calls for neat flawless expression of ideas in minimum words organized to present the idea.

Too long and mundane expressions like ‘not only but also’ fail to evoke respect among senior professionals who look for polite and well-mannered disposition. These niceties should come into play as a natural exposition of any idea.

Remember that you had liberally failed to gather the best strategies as a learner. Now you have to catch up with time, lest should settle for far lower compensations, unless ready to take colossal efforts to strengthen your profile by communication.

Realities of life are always harsh. Soft pedaling never helps. Keep in mind – nothing succeeds like success. Success can be achieved by genuine toil. 

Confidence-building begins with the confidence that ‘I will strive my best to build it’. Confidence is a product of assured ability to handle situations. Therefore, it is the mind that has to stay updated and alert to co-ordinate all relevant determinants and evolve the best-fit approach to overcome any hurdle. Mind to be cool requires being thoroughly organized. These are well with in one’s reach.
