Your dreams show what you can become. They are your hopes, what you love, and the future you want. Always be ready to learn new things. Learning helps you grow. Identify your fears and challenge them. Don't let fear hold you back from pursuing your goals and taking risks. Take responsibility for your growth, development, and success. Don't wait for others to empower you; empower yourself. Don't be afraid to ask questions, even if you think they might sound basic. Asking questions demonstrates curiosity and a desire to learn.

It emphasizes the proactive mindset needed when seeking opportunities. Instead of waiting for opportunities to come to you, take action, be creative, and actively pursue your goals. Whether it is related to your career, personal life, or any other aspect, you can create opportunities through your efforts and determination. Open yourself to the possibilities; if you wait until you are ready, you might miss a unique chance. Be willing to have the hustle muscle to figure it out. Some opportunities might only come once, SEIZE them :)

If you are seeking a career that will be memorable and impactful, sometimes you may need to step outside of your comfort zone and take a leap into unknown waters. I took the leap twice - once when changing my role function (from accounting to recruiting), and secondly, industry-wise when joining Nokia. I did not regret either of those decisions and I feel this is where I belong. Don't be afraid to pursue your passion, with dedication and consistency your career aspirations can become a reality.
