Everyone’s schedules are hectic these days and there’s no time to explain things. You need to be a quick study.
Some opportunities should be left where you found them. Give yourself a break and pass on this one.
It’s OK to be friendly at work, but not chummy. You need to maintain your distance with co-workers for when you have to hold their feet to the fire.
You say that you want advice, but then quibble with everything said. Wise counsel doesn’t come from people buffering the truth. It’s about telling it like it is.
After weeks of looking for shortcuts, you’re ready to take the long road. Believe it or not, this will prove to be much easier.
At this point you should know what is – and what isn’t – working. Don’t dispute what you see with your eyes. Make necessary (and overdue) changes.
