When you first started - probably had little idea of what to expect. What would your "2017 self" - tell your "New to the role" self as advice ?

When you start out working you probably wish you knew the things you know now about your role.

  • Sometimes it is best not to do things in a particular way,
  • You will end up working longer than you expect.
  • You wont be appreciated sometimes,
  • And then other times you may accidentally land on your feet.

What have you learned that you wish you knew when you started out ?

Well, I would have tell myself now that I should have studied harder before. For me to get a good-paying job you have to at least have a Bachelors Degree. But that's not always the case. As of now work harder is a better advice for me. 

thanks for the invite.
