This is a collection of tips gained from numerous different sources. Unfortunately for me I lack some self confidence so I'm starting to use these tips like a Bible! Some of my sources include self help books and guidance councillors, so as they say 'Credit where credit is due!'
Know who you are:
○ What do you value?
○ What are you passionate about?
○ What is your work ethic?
○ Be yourself!
Be the Best you can be...
○ What can you do to raise the bar on what you have to offer?
○ Always try to meet or exceed your expectations (Don't doss guys!)
○ Be motivated (Work towards goals or something)
○ What skills, if any, could you improve?
Take Initiative:
○ What more can you do without being asked?
○ Be proactive in your work
Project Confidence:
○ Have a positive attitude
○ Trust yourself
○ Know your strengths and accomplishments
○ Be willing to take the odd risk
Be Determined:
○ Give yourself goals, but sufficient time to reach them
○ Expand your comfort zone
○ Don't let small things hold you back
Know what stops you aiming for the stars:
○ Fear
○ Limiting your beliefs
○ Negative thinking
● You may tend to focus more on your failures than successes, don't! The good things are just as important, take pride in your work.
● If you're feeling in doubt about anything Leaving Cert related, talk to someone especially one who has been through this before. I know it's scary but in a matter of months you'll be saying "what leaving cert" ;)
Remember to make time to relax and enjoy your hobbies, it's not all about the books!
