Unit Three A Successful Career Introduction Everyone has his own dream in his life. My greatest desire is to be a successful technical executive with high salary. Therefore I can greatly improve the quality of my life. And the most important thing for me is that I can get enjoyment and the sense of achievement in my job. Exploring the Topic 1. What kind of person can be regarded as successful in his/her career? In my opinion, a successful person in his/her career needn’t to be famous in his/her field or earn a lot of money or in a high social position.

The last but not the least important, one should have clear mind to catch good opportunity.
