Graduation from college is just the beginning of your learning. But as a new professional in a world of competition, how do you know where to begin? How do you know what passions to follow? LinkedIns Billionaire Founder Reid Hoffman describes the three secrets to highly successful graduates:
1. Competition: For anything desirable there is competition. You need to develop a competitive advantage. The best career is comprised of three things; the best career has you pursuing worthy aspirations (where you might like to go in the future), using your assets (what you have going for you now), while navigating the market realities (what people will actually pay for you).
2. Networks: People control resources, opportunities, and information. Proactively build your network.
3. Risk: Take intelligent risks (actions help you discover where you want to go and how to get there). In college he most successful students rarely fail. In the real world it is okay to fail and learn from those experiences.
