Thank you, Itsme_ye. I agree on what you said ‘we are all different’, some rules applied to some and some are not. The thing is, everyone should find their strength; you can achieve things in life when you know your strength and weaknesses. Everyone has abilities, everyone has talents but these are not enough to achieve what you aspire in life. We have to focus on our strength. Talent is never enough; you need to have passion, initiative, perseverance, courage, and so on.
The different skills I learned from my previous jobs helped me to gain invaluable experiences, and I use these experiences as my tools. We should teach our selves to learn and unlearn, we should always keep ourselves teachable.
We need disappointments, we have to make hundreds of mistakes before we can finally realise what are our strengths. If you know your strengths then you are well ahead, because you know what you can do and what not. I can assure you that to aspire to be a call center agent requires more than the ability to speak clearly, listening skills and use of grammar. It requires persons who have high emotional intelligence, persons who have innate common sense and empathy and these are skills that are not taught in schools, these are skills that you learn in life.
Arm yourself with passion; there is no success without passion. If you get disappointed of the job you are in, think...what it is in here? What I can learn from this? What I can do to change this situation?
Again, find your strength, work on it and think what you are capable of, it doesn’t matter what you do in life, what matters is you are happy doing it. Work because you love what you are doing and do not surrender to any adversities, if you feel you can do it, go for it.
Of course, what written above are just advises, it cannot be applied to you (anyone) if you do not understand what the reasons are behind it.
