Using Study To Advance In Business

Lots of people go through their whole careers thinking that they need to “know the right people” or “just get lucky” in order to get that promotion they want. While there is a small sliver of luck when it comes to advancing in business, however, most people give this sliver far more credit than it deserves! In fact, the place where many fail in business is not in luck, but in a failure to be prepared to take advantage of (or even recognize!) their opportunity when it shows up at last. It is important that you understand the value of studying to advance in business, regardless of whether you are a small business owner, an employee at a large company, or even a manager hoping to move up higher in the ranks.

Understanding what your competitors are doing is the best way for you to study if you are a small business owner. This does not just mean that you should understand what they are doing wrong, either; take a good look at your strongest competitor and figure out what they do right!

If you are an employee in a large corporation, it can often feel as though it is impossible to ever get noticed. After all, there are so many other employees just like you, and it can seem completely random whether an employee’s hard work gets noticed or not. It can seem like your study and hard work are getting you nowhere, and it can be easy to stop trying so hard. But remember: In time, your opportunity will come, as the law of averages dictates this; if you continue to work hard and advance in knowledge and expertise, you will be prepared to seize your opportunity when it comes along.

If you are a manager, it can be tempting to sit back and forget that there is still plenty more to accomplish. But as a manager, it is important that you not only continue to study to open up doors for advancement, but that you also study in order to enlighten those in your charge!
