About this event

We live in an instant gratification society. Our daily diet of likes, tweets and hashtags have conditioned us to think we can get everything, right now. We constantly compare ourselves to our peers, enviously looking at their perfect digital lives, and despairing at how fruitless our progress has been in comparison.

But what if there was another way to view things? What if we understood that big results take time? What if we could ensure that good things really do come to those who wait?

In this talk we delve into how this mentality is hard ingrained into our genetics, how it affects our career making decisions and how we can over come this for the better.

Takeaways

  • Learn how to create short-term actions
  • Why accountability makes it much harder to quit
  • How to make effective plans for building your career
