How to be the best at what you do Set a goal (e.g. "Become No.1 in...").
Make an audit of yourself.
Constantly and systematically engage in personal and professional development.
Commit to achieving high results in what you do. Without "records", achievements, "business cards", first-class projects, and results, you are definitely not No.1.
And last place in this algorithm is
promotion. It should be there, but it is not the decisive factor for success.
