8. Never lose focus: As young people, we are naturally ambitious - that's okay- but we must stay true, and stay focused. Also note that there's nothing wrong with starting small. 9. Be futuristic, but also realistic. 10. Go out there, and be the change the world needs.

6. Be a media literate: How you make use of the digital technologies you have can take you from where you are to where you want to be. 7. Search for growth opportunities: Be deliberate and prepared, no matter how appealing other opportunities may look, stay on course.

5. Have a mentor, and a Sponsor: You can lead from the top, middle or bottom. A sponsor will vouch for you, support you and connect you with opportunities that will help fulfil your dreams.

3. Build or Join a Community: The effect of impact is golden, it never fades and cannot be wrinkled by time. Service men with your life, passion and skill. 4. Be a lifelong learner. Learning goes beyond our university degrees, or classroom.

1. Get your foot in the door. 2. Be ready to pay the price: In the end, the most important things in life will not be the structures we erect, the honors we received and the institutions we build, it will be the people we develop.
