There are countless workplace suggestions circulating on the Internet, including naturally those who abuse the number. We ask directly to those at the top of the workplace pyramid who have worked tirelessly to achieve great professional success. Which strategies are effective? Which popular claims should be ignored altogether? Here are some workplace advice you should never follow.
1. "Always have a five-year plan." ”
You haven't heard of it yet, have you? The five-year plan is outdated, and it is now popular to "turn around at any time". Having clear goals is certainly a good thing and necessary, but when you're trying to plan out your life for the next five years, it's another matter. The best opportunities tend to come up when you don't expect it. If you stick too close to your "five-year plan," you may miss out on opportunities when they come, because it is difficult to adjust to the new direction.
2. "Don't jump jobs too often"
Frequent job hopping isn't the worst thing to do, it's worse than that, hard work and loyalty, only to be trapped in low-paid positions, bitter and tired but unable to get the money they deserve. Now is the new economic era, job hopping has become quite normal. Today, employees who work at a company for more than two years will lose their lifetime income by 50 percent. So be kind and respectful to each of your employers, but don't stay in one position for fear of being labeled "frequent job hoppers."
3. "Everything looks to the money." And "Just do what you love, and the money will naturally come." ”
These are two extremes, but both are false advice. Everything looks at money, regardless of their own interests, the end result is bound to be to engage in a soul-devouring profession and do something against the heart. And in the long run, this is not the most economically beneficial option. On the other hand, just doing what you love and fantasizing that financial success will miraculously follow is naïve and even absurd. As Kate? As White often says, one should consider the intersection between one's own interests and talents and the greatest economic success, and work toward that intersection.
4. "Don't be insatiable. Speak with the results of your work. ”
This is the kind of advice that a grandfather from the Middle East would have given you 40 years ago who did small business. While the starting point is good, this view is not correct. Remember the movie "Jessie Arrives"? Jessie wants to be the school's vice principal: "I just hope that in the next few years, I can gain enough experience so that Dr. Foster will consider me as vice principal." The coach asked, "Why don't you just ask your superiors for a promotion?" Jessie said: "You can't ask for a promotion, you have to work hard for years to win a promotion." The coach laughed. Absolutely, definitely not as stupid as Jessie.
5. "Applying for a job that you know you can't get is a waste of time." ”
We recently published an article from the "Personal Branding" blog about this topic. Just because you think a job is beyond your reach or that you're not the ideal candidate doesn't mean you shouldn't apply. And of course be measured – if you want to be a pharmacist, don't apply for a wedding photographer assistant (unless you've always loved photography). Every job you apply for represents an opportunity to refine your resume, improve your interview skills, and build your self-confidence, so this is never a waste of time.
