The age of 30s can be a turning point for someone's life. At this age,
perhaps your space for movement will be narrower, squeezed by more and more
responsibilities and pinning. That's why many people tell you to make the
most of your 20s. At least so that later in your 30s you are calm and
comfortable.
So, if the most successful people in the world are in their 20s, what do
they do? This time Hipwee Sukses has collected suggestions from world CEOs
to live their 20s before the number three approaches. Must see for those of
you who are on the verge of confusion.
1. For the CEO of KX Group, it is important to be selfish when you are
in your 20s.
Do everything to achieve your dreams, before a lot of responsibility is in hand
As the CEO of a large company engaged in the fitness and pilates sector,
Aaron Smith is fully aware of failure. For him, the age of 20 is a crucial
period. It's not the time to give up on circumstances, instead you have to
be clever at being selfish.
First of all, decide what you want. If your desire is certain, don't
hesitate to sacrifice everything to achieve it. While you are still young
and have no family responsibilities, don't hesitate to risk what is
comfortable to pursue your dreams.
2. The CEO of Monetise said, while you're still young, make a tight
budget and save while you can.
Be cruel to yourself, so that you are ready when you meet a difficult one later
Leading a finance-technology company, Taichi Hoshino is used to a strict
life. One of them is tight personal finances. Creating a personal budget by
itself will help you organize your life and mentality. Do not hesitate to be
cruel to yourself, because youth is a cooking period.
It's not just about finances, be a ruthless self-controller. Starting from
time management, work ethics, to lifestyle. Because even though the future
is not always predictable, what we are doing now must have a huge impact.
3. Find your passion and be the best in that field.
As the CEO of Inspiring Rare Birds said, don't hesitate to find the best teacher around you
Passion is not easy to find. Therefore, passion becomes a very valuable
thing to fight for. If you can't find it, look for it! That's what Jo
Burston believed. Not only the founder of the Rare Birds platform, Jo also
initiated many startups in various fields.
Some are successful, and many fail. But as long as it was worth trying, Jo
wouldn't back down even an inch. It fits perfectly with the principle: “When
I hit a wall, there are only four options – Go over it, go round it, bury
under it or smash straight through it.”
4. Charlie Wood from Dropbox recommends you work for a multinational
company at least once in your life.
After graduating from college, there are several career options that you
can take. Immediately become an entrepreneur (if there is capital), join
CPNS, work in large companies, or pursue a career at startup. Each of them
has a different climate.
Well, for Charlie Wood, at least once in your early 20s, you should try a
multinational company. There you can learn about how a large company can
run. Furthermore, those of you who intend to become entrepreneurs, can
steal a lot of knowledge from there to be applied later.
5. For Open Colleges Chief Marketing Officer, finding the right
people is the most powerful mantra
Blaming circumstances is not in the dictionary of the greats. You can
determine who the people who can be around you. You must be able to take
knowledge from anywhere, not even formally in school.
You can learn from the people around you. That's what Kevin Lynch says you
should do in your 20s. Therefore, it is important to choose people who are
close to you. Because you realize it or not, how your environment has a
big influence on you.
6. Get out of your comfort zone, and seek as much experience as
possible
Even though you already have a permanent job, don't hesitate to take a
side job. Don't limit yourself to volunteering or internships. And if it's
really needed, don't hesitate to change careers if your current job
doesn't have something to hold on to.
Don't be afraid to change jobs. Because apart from the knowledge it is
definitely useful, maybe that's where you can find what you really want.
At least, John Whinning has proved it.
7. Even if it's small, start your own business.
Don't be afraid to try, because if you don't dare to try, maybe Bill Gates doesn't exist now
The success story of Bill Gates has certainly been worldwide. Drop out of
a prestigious college and start your own business in your early 20s.
Microsoft certainly would not be as big as it is today if Bill Gates did
not dare to leave Harvard and join his colleague Paul Allen. Not that you
have to drop out of college, but Bill Gates' passion for starting his own
business should be inspiring.
Even though it's as simple as an online shop dropship, you have to try.
Failed, try again. That's how millionaires learn and grow.
8. Traveling is obligatory to seek a different
experience.
One of them is Arianna Huffington, who we know is the CEO of the
Huffington Post. In her 20s, Arianna travels from one music festival to
another around the world. Traveling is a way to meet new people,
experience new places, and have new experiences. It is wrong to think that
traveling is limited to having fun and buying souvenirs.
When traveling, you are required to adapt to foreign situations. Not
building self-confidence, traveling also trains communication, and
refreshes the mind and heart.
Remember, when you reach head 3, your 20s can't come back anymore. So
while there is still plenty of time, do the things that have to be done.
So that later you will bear three heads with a calm heart and a sense of
comfort.
