When approached by a salesman, it is easy to think of the million annoyances that he or she is going to bring. It could be pushy questions, or lack of manners, and they probably won’t pick up any clues that you are sending them to get away. Or at least they won’t listen to those clues.<\/p>\n
An added difficulty that my peers and I have to face entering the workforce is the stereotype of age. We are now facing an uphill battle of the expectations that we have no experience, (which we don’t), no knowledge, no wisdom, and will simply not be taken seriously. It is our job to combat those stereotypes with humble confidence, professionalism, and an open mind.<\/p>\n
One thing that I have found to be the most key in any businessman or woman is the idea of humble confidence. Confidence in that you are willing and capable to do what needs to be done by the grace and power which is given to us by Jesus Christ, yet having the humility to be honest when we don’t know what we are doing or where to go next. Such a common mistake made among the youth of today, is an over confidence that we know better than those around us. We should take every opportunity to learn as much as we can from those around us, even if it may seem like there is nothing to learn.<\/p>\n
