services including servers, storage, databases, networking, software, analytics, and
intelligence over the internet (the cloud) to offer faster innovation, flexible resources,
and economies of scale.
Cloud computing is commonly applied in big data analytics, disaster recovery,
cybersecurity, and data backup.

of human life. You can shop online, find your jobs, play video games, send money

#4 Analytical Thinking and Innovation

To work on solving complex problems, you need to be analytical and
innovative. This is a step-by-step approach from evaluating and arranging obtained
information until you come up with the solution for the issues.
Someone who is able to think analytically will find it easier to analyze a
problem. You can achieve this as you always make decisions based on data and
identified goals.
Mastering this skill would also help you to pursue your career as logistics
supervisor, accountant, chemical engineering, marketing analyst, financial analyst
and many more. The companies can also pay from $50.000 to $70.000 per year.
Fantastic, isn’t it ?
#5 Active Learning and Learning Strategies
In this digital era with all the information served, we are challenged to adapt to
change. In order to do that, as human beings, we must keep learning and become a
long life learner.
According to Purdue university, active learning strategy is defined as any type
of activity during the learning process (face-to-face, online, or outside) that engages
learners in depth thought about the subject matter in your course.
This involves you taking an active, more self-directed role in the learning process.
Research also shows that learning is promoted when students are actively
processing information.
Learning activities such as taking notes, teaching someone else, reflection,
and discussion are some of the activities suggested if you want to develop your
active learning and learning strategies skills.
You will need this whenever you want to learn something new and to improve your
life.
#6 Creativity
Creativity is not just about art related work. It has a broader meaning. To be
creative means that you are always able to see perspectives from different ways of
view and come up with new original ideas. People with creative thinking are needed
in many companies in the present moment and in future because they always
believe that there must be another new approach for the solution. You can think of
your experience, the moment when in a group to discuss a new complex issue, then
one of your friends suddenly had the idea that made all of you think like “ahhhh man,
why didn’t we think like that”. That’s when the creativity worked.
Fascinating, isn’t it ?
You know that mastering creative thinking skills can aid you to pursue your
career as video game designer, graphic designer, social media manager, copywriter,
user experience designer, and many more. The companies can also pay these
workers from $15.000 to $86.000 per year.
#7 Critical Thinking
Critical thinking is the ability to think clearly, rationally, about what to do or

what to believe. It involves the process in which we must make rational, logical,
systematic, and well-thought-out judgments.
You can imagine this fast-paced era of spreading information with lots of hoax and
misleading information has caused more panic in the public. We need to think
critically to avoid this trap and this is how important critical thinking is.
Now, coming to this part, you might ask “how do I distinguish between
analytical, creative, and critical thinking?”.
Basically, analytical thinking is how you use your thinking to assess, measure,
compare, process, evaluate, and arrange. Creative thinking is about generating new,
novel, and useful ideas, meanwhile critical thinking is how to be logical in using your
own thinking.
You know that mastering critical thinking will be a huge benefit for pursuing
your career. Many companies can hire people with critical thinking skills in the
positions such as computer programmer, automotive technician, geologist, detective,
marketing director and many more with annual pay from $47.000 to $87.000.
