Many use training and certification to acquire knowledge and skills, but they aren’t the only options. Other career tools available to you include work experience, Internet, books, training simulators and so on. Note that even spending time and money on these tools will not guarantee success without the necessary commitment and effort. Identify and use career advancement tools to acquire the technical knowledge and skills your chosen career path requires.
Money is certainly a critical resource required for building your skills and knowledge. However, money is not the only tool for empowerment. Can money alone help the slacker? What is money with an apathetic attitude that is full of negativity? Empowerment requires resources such as time, money, effort, as well as the ability the keep the right perspective. Asking for free training is begging the question. Money isn’t everything and resources are often limited. Do you want to move forward? Then smash those myths and change your orientation.
Discover yourself – who are you? Know yourself and know your value. The money in your pocket is not your value. Know your self worth. In the words of Harvey Fierstein, “Never be bullied into silence. Never allow yourself to be made a victim. Accept no one's definition of your life, but define yourself.” How much do you value yourself? Don’t approach your career with a recipient or “receive only” mindset. You can't grow by accepting handouts. Always package yourself as a value provider and problem solver. As a contributor you give more than you receive. Rather than asking for something, what can you contribute? You may not yet be the 900-pound gorilla but you have something to offer – what is it? What are your strengths?
