Your job should create an impact
One of the simplest ways to enjoy a good career is by creating an impact on every walk of life. Why do you think Microsoft and Apple are still in business and are ruling? It’s because they create impact and value with their products or services. When Steve Jobs was unveiling the first iPod, he let the world know that the product can contain 1000 songs. He did this when everyone was using devices that could only contain 100 songs. That’s VALUE. If you keep on stacking the money, you will undoubtedly be wealthy, but you’ll also likely be unhappy about your career.
Explore your field
Nobody ever said you shouldn't switch careers! If you’re still in school, don't limit yourself to what you’re studying. If you major in mathematics, know that you can venture into computers and mathematics. Think about what you can create by combining multiple fields and explore that. You can become a programmer or even become a product manager. Don't let anybody tell you that there are limited opportunities in your field.

Respect people
This is one of the major reasons why people fail in their careers. There's this feeling of giving respect to someone in a high-position who’s graduated form the top-most school in the world. And this feeling can be especially overpowering when you’ve just started out. Well, don’t do that. Respect everybody from your CEO down to your doorman. It starts with good morning down to saying good words to them every now and then. When you respect people, you gain their trust. But take care to not overdo it or people may think you’re buttering them up!
Do more, talk less
Anyone can say they can swim until they get to the water and dodge the challenge. Don't be like some politicians that promise many things but deliver nothing. If you want to enjoy your career, you need to make a habit of getting results.
