A tech career today is very rewarding. Everything revolves around ICT and if you are a professional in ICT, the odds are that you are or would be making it financially because these professionals are hot in demand. As a techie myself, what are the attributes that can guarantee a successful tech career?

The first thing is that you have to be inventive. You have to be able to create something in your mind and try to actualize it in the real world. Techies like web designers and graphic designers create mental pictures and reproduce them on the system. Another attribute is that you should be able to pay attention I details. There are fine details that can make or mar your work, miss them and watch your work turn into something else. Another attribute needed for a tech career is that you must be a good listener than a talker. A good listener digests all the facts in a conversation. It is necessary so you can deliver on clients' expectations.
