There’s no perfect job, so just get started. Often, learning what you don’t like doing is an important step toward finding out what you do enjoy.
The most important thing in any job is the opportunity to learn and grow.
Work with people you like spending time with; almost as important as what you do is whom you do it with.
Avoid a short-term mindset; anything worthwhile in life must be achieved by striving for it over time.
Have a global mindset—what happens in the world affects us all.
Value your integrity. No matter the situation, it is not enough to ask, “Is this legal?” Always ask, “Is this right?”
Maintain a positive attitude; constructive engagement in the face of adversity is more likely to lead to success.
Balance your personal life and your job. Devoting some part of your life to service—making a real difference for a cause that is important to you—has the power to greatly enrich your life.
