SKILLS We Should NOT Miss In Life

SKILLS We Should NOT Miss In Life

Around the internet, we can find many SKILLS that will be in demand in the future.  In fact, we can look at them to dive into trends BUT we will NOT be able to blindly follow them.  Often, the SKILLS in such lists are very general and quite voluminous.  WHEN you look at them, you think it will take FOREVER to master even half of the list.  In such a situation, we need to prioritize and be as flexible as possible.  We need to be ready to constantly retrain and manage our career.  WHAT we need to agree on is that there are SKILLS We Should NOT Miss In Life📗📙📘

Many studies have a common denominator.  One SKILL most of those studies ended up with is PROBLEM SOLVING a.k.a. troubleshooting.  I have to admit that it is really sheer coincidence that the very first SKILL I learned in my work life is PROBLEM SOLVING.  At that time, my job role is focused on TECHNICAL SUPPORT of Shell's IBM-based mainframe environment💎💎💎
WHICH meant that as TECHNICAL SUPPORT, our very core skills revolve in TROUBLESHOOTING.  In fact, many experts are in unison to agree that that is the MOST important SKILL that will allow one to stay "RELEVANT" in IT, management, and generally anywhere is the ability to solve problems.  And WHILE this SKILL is very extensive, this is a CLEAR VECTOR💴💷💵
Despite the myriad of SKILLS, let us focus on six core groups of SKILLS:
  1. SELF ORGANIZATION - This is the SKILL of personal effectiveness, self-management in life
  2. COMMUNICATION - These are writing and speaking SKILLS, including persuasion/negotiation
  3. PROJECT APPROACH - The SKILL to organize people & resources for project-based activities
  4. ADAPTABILITY - The SKILL of working in unforeseen and unpredictable conditions
  5. LEARNABILITY - That SKILL of building an effective process of learning NEW things 
  6. PROBLEM SOLVING - That SKILL to dig into a problem, fixing it and finding the ROOT CAUSE
Looking at the above-mentioned core groups of skills, please take note that there is NO single specific technical skill[s].  Instead, the skills core groups cover a much broader spectrum which starts with one's "SELF SKILLS"  all the way to "PROJECT-based SKILLS".  Bottom line is you can't ignore OR overlook any of these six skills core groups.  Ignore it and you will risk developing the foundational needs of your capability because there are SKILLS WE SHOULD NOT MISS IN LIFE❗❗❗
