No dream?no aim

Hot 3644 views. 2015-5-1 13:50

&nbsp; &nbsp; Today i want to write something about one of my another colleagues. Of course he is a post 90s.he joined in our company at last year! We seldom recruit anybody because of our special businesses security! My boss usually interviews by himself,he is especially picky in this aspect.so one day when he called whether we need anymore people i said no with no hesitation. But days later,he called again and another colleague picked up the phone and transfer to wenjing,she asked him to send his resume。to my surprise,he didn't send by email but came to knock at &amp;nbsp;the door .after my boss look through his resume,he decided to meet the guy!later he became one member of our team! &nbsp;<div>&nbsp; &nbsp; &nbsp; &nbsp; &nbsp; &nbsp; &nbsp;</div><div>&nbsp;He worked as a salesman, although things were not going very smoothly and he was very nervous,he didn't give up,called a lot of customers every day,and little by little, he won some customer and things changed! Sometimes he is not that reliable but it is not what I want to emphasize today. &nbsp; &nbsp; &nbsp; &nbsp; &nbsp; &nbsp; &nbsp; &nbsp; &nbsp; &nbsp; &nbsp; &nbsp;&nbsp;</div><div>&nbsp;He went to night classes to learn english everynight after work till 23.00, one day when we chatted together,he said he never go to bed befer 3.00 in the early morning. I was shocked, no wonder he always later to work. He read lots of books &amp;nbsp;ranging in many aspects.brings a notebook whenever he gose,we like call him professor! You can ask him any details of diamonds and gemstones, nothing's he would not know and answer with a hundred percent assuredness.</div><div>&nbsp; &nbsp;</div><div>&nbsp; &nbsp;He is preparing one exam recently, FGA he said,i never heard that before, &amp;nbsp;if you have a FGA certificate, you could go to the Britten without applying the visa! &nbsp;It is his dream he claimed,and he asked me why i don't take the exam since i have language advantages! His asking makes me speechless suddenly. &nbsp; &nbsp; I don't know,i replied. I don't know what is my aim,i don't have a dream! For so many years after graduation,i went to work day after day, i never thought of my dream. I had a dream once,but I 've lost it some day, i even didn't aware of that! What a pity!</div><div><br></div>

Your colleague is ambitious and seems determined to succeed in this business. I have seen a lot of people trying very hard to climb the ladder of success, but only very few succeed. To succeed, you need to be in the right workplace, the right time and with the right people.

It is not always necessary to be so qualified and he may be over qualifying himself. The right way would be to gain experience, seek suitable knowledge, and get sufficient recognizable qualifications through experience.

It seems not necessary for him to attain FGA certification. It is not as easy as he says. It may even be out of reach for him.

The FGA is the world's oldest and most valued gemological designation. Cost for their program is significantly less than the GIA, although you will have to get your own study specimens and be more motivated to do your own study. But the FGA will give you the highest level of knowledge and expertise in both the practical and theory of gemology. Both distance study and on-site study available. Cost for both Foundation and Diploma by Distance Education courses leading to the FGA exam is approximately US$7,500.

There are lots of comments going on around us at work, especially at specialized trade like yours. There is no need to be compete needlessly. Concentrate on your work, accumulate experience and knowledge. Soon you would be able to used those experience to move up.

Everyone has aspirations. Whenever you have ideas or dreams for the future, keep it on your mind and gradually work towards that direction.
