I just made a new video!!! There is SO MUCH bad career advice out there. If you listen to it, it can hurt your health, your productivity and, ironically, even your career.
Learn to recognize the 5 worst kinds of people who peddle this nonsense and why they are so spectacularly wrong.
Bad career advice often disguises itself as wisdom, leading many astray. For instance, taking a job you dont want simply to get your foot in the door can trap you in a cycle of dissatisfaction and frequent changes, damaging your reputation. Similarly, letting ability dictate your career without considering personal interests can leave you feeling unfulfilled.
Chasing the highest salary might seem practical but often leads to burnout and unhappiness. Staying in a secure but stagnant role may feel safe but hinders growth. Lastly, obsessing over your limitations instead of your potential can stifle opportunities. Evaluate advice critically.
“It’s very, very good. It’s incredibly well written, full of insights, and there are exercises to improve your own happiness at work. You can’t ask for more than that!”
