Learn to get stuff done, says, Barack Obama. He explains, at every level we get people who are very good at describing problems, very sophisticated at why something went wrong, why something cant get fixed, etc. We need people who says, whatever it takes, let me take care of it. People always look for plum assignment, but a lot of times the best way to get attention is whatever is assigned to you, get work done there, you nail it, kill it. Be a doer.
In management or administration, there is nothing more noble than the art of getting stuff done. Begin to focus on action. Sometimes people get stuck in the "learning" phase and never move to action to achieve results. At the same time embrace continuous learning. The world is constantly changing, so the ability to learn and adapt is essential. "Learn to get stuff done" can also be seen as a lifelong process of acquiring new knowledge and skills to stay productive.
