Live in the moments.

  Everyone has heard the saying, “Life is too short.” You may disregard this, as you are only a teenager. Why should you care about the length of your life when you have so many years ahead of you?

While this may be true, the truth is, life goes by fast. If you do not stop and realize just how amazing the little things are, you may be missing out.

The idea is called mindfulness. Living in the moment also improves health. According to a study done in world, practicing mindfulness can reduce anxiety, stress, and has many other benefits.

Many of us live life without really noticing what’s happening around us. When we choose to be mindful, we see every moment unfold. Then we realize what we have done, what we are doing and what we want to do. It seems as though current society remembers the past better than it was, the present worse than it is and the future less resolved than what it will be.

One way to live in the moment is to see what is in front of us: family. Family is usually left in the back of our minds in our lives. For example, what stores did on Black Friday totally degraded the meaning of Thanksgiving. Most camped out at an electronics store on Thanksgiving day, a day where we should take the time to enjoy dinner with our family.  These stores chose to open early just to make more revenue. Instead of spending some quality time with family, people were outside in the cold longing to find the best prices on things they probably will not use within years from now.Another way to live life is to not gravitate on things that cannot be changed such as the past. What is done is done and all mistakes must be learned from. All achievements in the past should not be  welled  upon, but seen as another way to learn how to succeed. We sometimes tend to see the past brighter than what it truly was. We then spend so much time trying to replicate that feeling. We also sometimes tend to see bad events in the past, and cannot let things go.  The fact is, we must leave the past alone. Let it be.

You should also keep in mind that the future is not set in stone and anything can happen. A powerful high-paying job does not always result in happiness. When you are deciding majors, find one that you like. Chances are you will feel more successful at a job where you are happy as opposed to a job where you hate with a high pay.

Forrest Gump was onto something when he compared life to a box of chocolates. Each individual moment, like a piece of chocolate, should be savored. If you do not, it will be gone before you know it and you will be sad that you did not take the opportunity to enjoy it.

Accept the past, live in the moment and enjoy everything the world has to offer.

Top ten skills

   Even if you feel you’re up against a wall having left graduate job hunting and career plans a little late, covering the basics is the best way to boost your confidence and get back on track.

   Graduate employers place a lot of emphasis on finding candidates with the right skills and competencies for their organisations. Depending on the career sector and profession you choose to work in, there could be very specific skills, abilities and knowledge needed to do the job. However, complementing these are general competences and  behaviors  that are essential for successful working. These are often overlooked by candidates, but they are the things recruitment professionals want to see evidence of.

The top ten skills graduate recruiters want

1. Commercial awareness (or business acumen): This is about knowing how a business or industry works and what makes a company tick. Showing that you have an understanding of what the organisation wants to achieve through its products and services, and how it competes in its marketplace.

• How to show employers your commercial awareness

2. Communication: This covers verbal and written communication, and listening. It's about being clear, concise and focused; being able to tailor your message for the audience and listening to the views of others.

• How to impress graduate recruiters with your communication skills

3. Teamwork: You'll need to prove that you're a team player but also have the ability to manage and delegate to others and take on responsibility. It's about building positive working relationships that help everyone to achieve positive goals and business objectives.

• How to use your teamwork skills to get a graduate job

4. Negotiation and persuasion: This is about being able to put forward your way, but also being able to understand where the other person is coming from so that you can both get what you want or need and feel positive about it.

5. Problem solving: You need to display an ability to take a logical and analytical approach to solving problems and resolving issues. It's also good to show that you can approach problems from different angles.

• How to show employers your problem solving skills

6. Leadership: You may not be a manager straight away, but graduates need to show potential to motivate teams and other colleagues that may work for them. It's about assigning and delegating tasks well, setting deadlines and leading by good example.

• How to show your leadership potential in job applications

7. Organisation: This is about showing that you can  prioritize, work efficiently and productively, and manage your time well. It's also good to be able to show employers how you decide what is important to focus on and get done, and how you go about meeting deadlines.

• How to show that you can manage your time well

8. Perseverance and motivation: Employers want people to have a bit of get-up-and-go. Working life presents many challenges and you need to show employers that you're the kind of person who will find a way through, even when the going gets tough... and stay cheerful-ish.

9. Ability to work under pressure: This is about keeping calm in a crisis and not becoming too overwhelmed or stressed.

10. Confidence: In the workplace you need to strike the balance of being confident in yourself but not arrogant, but also have confidence in your colleagues and the company you work for.

Advise of the day.

I believe that success is dreaming, setting goals and working HARD to achieve those goals consistently. If you are not sure what you want to do, just start working toward SOMETHING until you find your passion. The key to success is persistence and determination. Just do it…because YOU can! No excuses.

"I would say to our youth:

First of all: YOU ALL HAVE GREATNESS INSIDE OF YOU! There is a purpose in each and every one of you, and you must complete the greatness that you were sent on Earth to complete. And this greatness of yours, MAY or MAY NOT be with you making the NBA or becoming a rap/singing star. If it does not involve playing sports or being an entertainer, that’s cool.

Plus, get the best education that you possibly can; whether that’s setting your sights on a four-year college, two-year college or trade school. But, push yourself to do a little more than you think you can do. An example of this would be to look at a four-year college, although you really have your sight set on a two-year institution. At least be aware of what it takes to get into a four-year college. And this awareness should start as early as your eighth grade school school.

For young brothers: If you are in the “drug and guns game,” be careful. Many of our young men thought they could beat the system only to find out that they could not when they lost control. For example, they murdered someone by shooting them after losing their temper and ended up doing major time in prison. Can you imagine yourself doing 20, 25 or 35+ years in prison? The time that’s being handed out by the courts is SERIOUS. Many of the cats that accidentally murdered someone did not wake-up until it was too late. They are now spending most of their lives in prison (many times with major mental sickness).

For young sisters: Maintain your virtue and confidence. You don’t need a young man that’s not treating you right to be complete and fulfilled. You ALREADY are complete. Get busy with the vision (plan) that you have for your life."

" I would say that you need to have a vision and a thankful attitude. Where do you see yourself a year from now? Three years from now? How ’bout when you become a grown-up? Dream as big as you can! Don’t worry about what you don’t have right now but rather be thankful for this moment. Being grateful is a very powerful step to getting where you want to go. When we are thankful for where we are right now, whether that is a 1 bedroom apartment on the 27th floor in the Bronx or in a two family house in Newark, be grateful and watch what happens. Being grateful brings more good things into your life. The more thankful you are, the more great things you attract to yourself; therefore, attracting the right people, teachers and mentors to you and your well-being. I know cause it’s happening to me right now.

Every morning I get up (and before my feet touch the floor) I start giving thanks. Before I became a children’s book illustrator, I would say, ” Thank you Lord that I am a published writer and children’s book illustrator.” I would say it all the time. Now, I am doing just what I said, and I am thankful.

Finally, get around people with good energy who will support you and encourage you. Stay away from those who poo-poo your dreams. Remember, you can’t put a SUPER LARGE VISION in a small mind, or into a mind that isn’t thinking as BIG as you are. It just ain’t gonna work. Keep pressing forward to your vision"
