FREE TRAINING - *DAY 2/7* - KNOW YOUR VALUE
00:00Hello and welcome to day two of the seven-day career growth challenge with me,May Ping, super excited that you are still here.So in the last training, we talked about why it's so important to be able to identify your career goalso that you will have the inner motivation of wanting to take action to move forward.So in this training, I want to help you to identify and know what your value actually is.Now, when it comes to pinpointing how you're adding value, we must first identify whatthose value points are. So the mistake that I see in many 95 working professionals is thatthey go to work every single day. You clock in, you clock out, you do a bunch of busy work,
00:41every day is so busy, you work long hours, all this chaos that's happening around. But at the end of theday, why are you working so hard for? At the end of the day, what are you trying to achieve? Surprisingly,a lot of people struggle to explain what is their main job. What exactly are they doing? What? What are they doing?at the workplace. So in this training, we really need to button down how to identify your valuebecause you cannot add value unless you know what this value that you're trying to addactually is. So first things first is I want to tell you that you are adding value every singleday. You are adding value every single day at work. And do not have the mindset thatadding value means I must do something bombastic.
01:33It must be something big, right?I need to be a public speaker.I need to go and impress the whole world.It's not correct.So from a management standpoint, right, the fact that you got hired,you are providing value in exchange for your salary,in exchange for your employment contract.That is the truth.
01:55So that actually is the value that is.you are providing and you are giving to the company in this job. So instead of thinking too farabout something that is big and bombastic that is so difficult to identify, I want you to bring itdown back to earth, bring it down back to reality, and really identify what are the threethings that if you do not do, you do not do well at your current job right now, you are probablygoing to get fired. You're probably going to get told that.hey, this is not okay. You have not met expectations. How come you didn't finish this piece of work?How come this piece of work is not done correctly? Right. So if you're hearing things like that,
02:40it means that that is the core requirements that you are hired to do. Right. So your main roles andresponsibilities, that actually is the value that you are providing. So I want you to stop saying that,you know, I have no value to add. How do I add value? How do I add value?fact that you are hired means that you are adding value every single day at work. But thestruggle point is for a lot of people is to really outline line by line, bullet by bullet, what thesethings actually are. But what am I actually doing at work? So in this training right now, I'm going togive you a specific exercise. And this exercise is going to be so important. Because if you don'tknow what your value is, you cannot clearly articulate your roles and responsibilities, then
03:29it is going to be almost impossible to be able to let your boss know that you're doing a good job.It's going to be impossible to level up in your career. It's going to be impossible to convincea hiring manager, HR or recruiter that you deserve the next opportunity. If you can't even explainwhat you are doing at your job right now. So this may sound so fundamental, but it's actuallythe fundamental things that will set you up for long-term success in the corporate world. So thisis today's exercise. I want you to write down what are the three main responsibilities, right?The three main things that you're currently doing at your job right now, that if you don't do it,you're probably going to get fired. If you don't do it, your boss is going to be very angry with you.
04:18If you don't do it, probably you're going to be a low performance this year. If you don't do it,probably you're going to get a very bad performance rating. If you don't do it, you'll probably not getany bonus. And basically, if you don't do these three things and you don't do these three thingswell, you're going to get into big, big, big, big, big, big, big, big trouble. Now, write thosethree things now because those exact three things are the main value that you bring in your currentjob. So write this now because I'm going to help connect every single thing together with youas we progress with the trainings. But as I said, it's going to be impossible to know how to add valueif you don't know what these values are.
04:58So take a little bit of time, really write down the three thingsthat you need to complete and you need to do a good job,high quality per timeline, in your current day-to-day job.That if you don't do well, you're going to get into huge trouble.So right now these three things, and I'll see you in tomorrow's training.
