Title: Methods to Jump Start Your Professional Dreams
1Methods to Jumpstart Your Professional Dreams
2When it comes to pursuing your dreams, there are
several methods by which you can launch from the
foundation you have built.
3For one, it is reasonable to seek adequate
counsel.
4Just as a financial advisor can find the right
advice from a seasoned finance industry recruiter
on the next step in his or her career path, many
have found the assistance they needed in the
following examples.
5Create a Plan to Continue Learning
6Ray Zuppa is one of the premier RICO attorneys in
the state of New York.
7However, while he has ascended to the height of
his profession with an office that overlooks the
opposite side of Garden City's Stewart Avenue,
his life had not always gone in this direction.
8During college, Mr. Zuppa was a star athlete on
the Arizona State University football team.
9However, that dream was derailed by a crushing
injury.
10In the course of re-evaluating his path, he was
offered a role in the 1998 Julia Roberts film,
"Mystic Pizza."
11He would have likely cruised to super stardom
with a film career, but his thirst for knowledge
led him to find out just how much injustice the
accused suffer when brought under RICO charges
(frozen assets make it prohibitive for them to
defend themselves),
12and knew that he could be part of a solution
beyond merely entertaining people. And he is.
13Find a Need and Fill it
14There are plenty of examples where seemingly
needless businesses have soared and made
billionaires out of allowing young people to
photograph their food and post it for everyone to
see,
15but the truth is that while these 1-in-a-million
shots can hit the mark, there is much more
success to be found in filling a need many people
genuinely have.
16Examples include Uber, which allows people who
want to earn extra money on a flexible schedule
the ability to work on their own time, Facebook,
which has contributed to a greater sense of
community for people who live far from loved ones
-
17and Dave Ramsey, who has brought common sense to
personal finance through his radio show (3rd
largest program behind Rush Limbaugh and Sean
Hannity).
18In the world of investing, those in finance who
create funds that create 8-10 returns over the
course of 50 years fulfill a need that serves
their entire client base well, and the payoff
comes in money, reputation, and an ongoing legacy.
19Focus on Your Strengths
20Lastly, one must focus on his or her strengths.
Nowhere was this more evident than in the example
of Lincoln Hoppe. From 2007-2009, Lincoln Hoppe
put his acting career on hold to go into finance.
21Being brilliantly talented in one field while
holding a keen interest in another, he believed
he could make a bigger mark by changing the
course of his professional path. The results,
though, were missed roles -
22including one in "Inception," which went on to be
one of the biggest box office hits of all time.
23By following these methods of always being
willing to learn, filling a need, and focusing on
your strengths, you can jumpstart your
professional dreams!
