Today's post is about the life a DBA and every other person must commit to.
From my past experiences I can say that, the life of a DBA can be very enjoyable one, if we follow some rules and be under our boundaries.
To be something, you have to keep hold on somethings, you have to keep somethings ON HOLD until you achieve your desired goal. You may need to work hard, or work smart to deal with your personal and professional life. One of my friend Aniket (Professional Network Engg.), his experiences and my thoughts helped me to come up with some of these points. So lets get started with these points.
These are the Points we shall always keep in Mind while working:
1. Self Confidence
Its the term what everyone writes in his/her resume. But the fact is only 20% people follow this rule sincerely. When it comes to compromise the work with your personal life, most people go with the flow of their personal matters. Personal matters drives you, but also they affect your professional life and your career growth.
What I say is just not to commit anything in your personal life unless you achieve your professional goal what you desire for. And that will absolutely make you achieve your professional goal, and I bet it will make you work for your personal goal. So just SHOW confidence while you are working. Always achieve whatever comes in your way.
2. Be Ambitious
Always try to do something more. What so ever you can do, to make it better!
Try to excel in your field. This statement is small, but when it comes to your work, you may think of lot many things and ultimately you see a bigger problem, as your field is vast.
So now what I suggest is, to start with you current task, and keep on digging it up. FULL STOP. Just keep on digging the enhancement you can make. I know it may take time, but you will get atleast an hour to think about it apart from your regular routine, and if not, just spend 10 Mins to think about it, just jot down every single possibility you can come up with.
One of the Saying, that keeps me motivated is "Try to break your own record everyday". I personally follow this.
3. Self Respect
This term can be taken it two ways, one which will led you to right way, and another that will led to be arrogant and selfish.
I would say, that you must keep your ego aside if and only if you want to be successful. Now, lets come to the point.
Self Respect, to respect ourselves. To respect what you do, To respect what you did, and to respect what you can/will do.
Be responsible for your deeds, Whatever decision you make, just make sure, that it will be true in all the cases. And its NOT BAD if you are proved wrong in some of them, just correct them and make changes. Don't be shy, just be confident.
4. Take Opinion
It is always advisable to take opinion from your seniors, even if you think he is not correct. Just take opinion. Then research and act upon.
If it feels like you are asking something stupid, still ask, ASK FOR MORE. And you may get something extra out of it.
Whatever the front personal think about that topic, you will get a view. Take opinions and make your decisions wisely.
5. Believe in Yourself.
Every human in this world, is here because he is important to play his/her role. You can be right or wrong for every individual. It always depends upon the perspective you hold. If you are low to take it, then you will lose, and if you are confident then you will achieve it.
This point is most important and dependent upon all the points stated above. While making decisions, always think in both ways, about its adverse and its positive effects.
If you master you technology, and above given points of life. You will certainly make decision which will be good for you, and for your surrounding.
And everyone looks for a better environment to work in. So why not make one. Make it yourself.
That's all for today.
The Better You, the Better will be your environment.
