Ten ways to improve your career

Ajilon Finance, a leading staffing and recruiting services firm, offers the following tips for getting ahead in your career.

1. Make a list of your priorities and outline your tasks for the day. Write down your short and long-term goals, evaluate your progress frequently and stay focused.

2. Are you really present? You may physically be at work, but are you there mentally?

3. Learn how to work through others. Delegating tasks is an important skill to master at any level.

4. Always look for opportunities to broaden your skills. For example, you can attend professional development seminars.

5. Socialize with colleagues. This will help you learn about what’s happening in other departments.

6. Create your own goals. Determine where you want to be professionally and what skills you need to reach that goal.

7. Be comfortable with being uncomfortable. Accept challenges that force you to try something new.

8. Be clear about what you want. If you believe you deserve a promotion, ask for one.

9. Take time off and relax. Attending to your personal life and doing things that make you happy will help your performance at work.

10. Seek satisfaction. If you’re disappointed by your current career, look for ways to transform your job into more of what you want. If this doesn’t solve the problem, maybe it’s time to look for a new position.

‘If you follow this advice, you will significantly increase your opportunities to earn more money, get promoted sooner and move ahead faster,’ says Mr Lebovits, President and Chief Operating Officer of Ajilon Finance.

Money

Money helps bring simplicity and organization to our economy. It is something people are willing to accept in exchange for the output they have produced and have available. Money is our medium of exchange. Throughout history, societies have used various items as the medium of exchange, everything from playing cards to shells to furs to gold. For one reason or another, these items became acceptable in some societies as forms of payment for goods and services. As soon as anything is readily accepted in a society as money, it can serve as a medium of exchange. That is the most important criterion for anything to serve as money—it must be readily acceptable. Another function of money we noted was that it serves as a standard of value or a unit of account. That is, money serves as a common item in which the prices of all goods and services can be set. If a person wants a computer, he or she doesn’t have to calculate how many loaves of bread will be necessary in order to buy it, how many painted houses, how many rocking chairs, how many rakes, or how many taxi rides. Instead of setting millions of prices for a television in terms of all other goods and services produced, one price is set. And the prices of all other goods and services are set in the same unit of account.
