STEVE JOBS' 10 Ultimate Tips For Being Successful In Your Career

1. Don’t live a limited life

You must remind that your time is limited, so you don’t need to waste it living someone else’s life. Don’t be trapped by dogma – which is living with the results of other people’s thinking. Don’t let the noise of other’s opinions drown out your own inner voice. And most important is that they have the courage to follow your heart and intuition. They somehow already know what you truly want to become. Everything else is secondary. – Steve Jobs

1. Have passion

If you’re not obsessive enough from the start, you’ll never stick it out.  With any job, there are aspects of work that are frustrating and difficult—even with the greatest dream job in the world, but being passionate about it will make you able to hold on when things get rough.

1. Design for yourself

Don’t let the noise of others’ opinions covers out your own inner voice.– Steve Jobs I know its cliche, but this is so true, you are the captain of your own ship; don’t let anyone else take the wheel. Design life for yourself, you won’t receive a second opportunity to do so, so you either do it now, or you regret it on later in life.

1. Don’t sell crap

You need to sell only high quality products, while many people working with you would argue I would say no for this. They just provide quality products, and because of that they have loyal customers that are always willing to buy.

1. Build a great team

Just behave and always be and work as a great team with the people around yourself with, are the people that will shape your future. If you surround yourself with smart and positive people that share your vision, well then, you have a bright future ahead of you. Remember that you are the average of the five people you spend the most time with, so choose wisely.

1. Don’t do it for the money

Choose a job you love, and you will never have to work a day in your life. Steve Jobs was worth 100 million dollars when he was 25 years old, but he didn’t do it for the money. He did it because he wanted to change the world, he was an innovator.

1. Be proud of your things

Create products that you can arrogantly advise to friends and family, if your product is great, money will go after you. Make sure your product is high quality and it’s something that people would love to use.

1. Build around customers

Customers tend to trust individuals who are serious about what they do, and willing to take the time to achieve a deep thoughtful of their craft. You need to take the time every day to learn more about your customers, their industry and their challenges.

1. Marketing is about Values

Have you ever seen a Nike advertisement where they share why they are better than Adidas and Puma? No, I know you haven’t, because what they do is they honor great athletes like Michael Jordan – that’s what they are, that’s who they are. So make sure your customers know what your company stands for.

1. Stay Hungry, Stay Foolish

Never be satisfied, and always push yourself forward as it’s a good option to try or also keep trying the things specially those people say cannot be done.
