Many times it is seen that the first ranker students in a class room are not as successful in practical life as compared to other non ranker students or last benchers :lol: .
Same way qualified and certified professionals may not achieve heights as compared to other professionals.
In spite of heaving many good qualities like sound technical knowledge, experience, qualification, attitude etc. etc.. etc... many professionals are struggling even for basic success or for a break in their life.
I find few areas of blockage responsible for the same, where either angioblast or bypass surgery, as the case my be, is required :shock: . which in turn can prove to be a Key to Success. :cool:
- Area of Management Skill
The term ERP itself represent team work.
SAP is such a field where to be a successful consultant one has to interact with all the levels of personnel from top level, chairman of the company through all directors, chief officers (CXOs) and / or investors to bottom level up to data operator or clerk.
At different-different level all the person will have different approach and altitude.
To handle this and pave way through difficulties towards success one has to have chain management skills.
- Area of Presentation or Communication Skill
This is one of the most important skill which is required to grow in the field of SAP.
In other words consultant can not grow beyond a certain limits in this field, without having these skills.
Technical Skill and Presentation skills are like two legs of a person.
Unless and until both the legs support each other person will not be able to walk or move ahead on his career path.
Just like in absence of any one leg a person is handicap, in absence of any of these skills a consultant can not lead independently and will have to be dependent on others.
In this course there are all the chances to get saturated in early career stage and / or to get exploited.
The above two are the main causes followed by many other incidental causes, like:
- Mugging Up without understanding
Learning a subject keeping objective to get through the exam will never be useful in practical life. As a result person will keep on struggling to understand the subject again and again.
Tell me how many of us has sincerely attempt case studies and extra material given in SAP certification books?
One can not learn fighting on the ground in a war, one can imagine the result of doing so.
- When to speak and when not to speak.
One has to develop ability to listen with patience and understand the scenario, to judge what time demands and act accordingly.
Many times situation demands to speak up and many times one has to wait for time to speak.
Not always but many times silence tells more than the spoken word.
Learned person (Gurudev) says that there is positive and negative impact of both namely to speak and not to speak therefore to enjoy positive side of both, as a thumb rule "Listen patiently before speaking and not let you tong function faster than your mind"
- Reading Hobby
Since school-college time many students has allergy with books. They open books during the last days before exams, retain the subject matter temporarily in their mind and vomit it out in the exam paper.
They egoistically believe that practical knowledge is more important in life than that of bookish knowledge :shock: and with the support of such statement they keep themselves away from the books.
Wise man always learn with others experience rather than experiencing everything oneself. Otherwise life of even 1000 years will prove short.
One should not be readaholic but its a good practice to read daily at least few new pages with the objective to think the subject written about, from a new perspective, and to evaluate the reliability and scholarship of the writer.
- Removing reluctance to change and learning new subjects / techniques.
Change is the law of Nature. Even the will of an omnipotent cannot change or abrogate this law, which would maintain its objective validity even if we assume the impossible.
How so ever reluctance to change we are, one will have to walk through this rule and keep growing.
Sir ravisankar.venna is my insperation. Even if I do any number of surgery in my life, I can not even think beyond his reach.
In continuation to above areas I strongly recommend you to read his blogs for grand success, especially:
Graphical Presentation of Key to Success
Top of all the above there is a superpower which supersedes everything in life namely:
- Destiny
Destiny holds 51% share of your success. (of course its only for those who believes in GOD)
so we just have do our best with our 49% of share and leave the rest to him.
(I consider Good contacts or Influence at high level as a part of Destiny only as even these factors supersedes everything :wink: )
Suggestion and comments on the blog are most welcome.
Wish you all, all the very best.
