The first step for improvement is self- evaluation. We need to be

capable to be objective and critic of one self in order to discover

the things we need and moreover the things we want to change

so we can become better in the field of our profession.

Once we have made this analysis we can elaborate a list of

aspects we need to change in order to take actions on them.

After we have defined the areas we need to change

we need to categorize them in long term goals and

short term goals.

Set your long terms first. Make yourself questions about

the most important aspect of your career, your job.

Are you satisfied with the job you have? Do you really

enjoy it? Would you like to be at somewhere else?

Where would you like to be? Do you enjoy your

everyday activities at work?

All this metacognitive process has an intention and its

about our performance satisfaction level.

Companies these days havespecific policies for positions

and applicants. Within the

growth on companies they

also require a better

preparation from applicants.

This is why it becomes so

important to continue theupgrading your skills and

knowledge

We need to organize the action steps that we must take in order toaccomplish the upgrading skills we need to fulfill companies

requirements. Mostly we need to do it in order to accomplish our

career development goals and as part of the self improvement

process.

Look around in your organization, look for opportunities and be
