Do you know what's worse than getting stuck in traffic on a Monday morning? It's trying to please your boss when you're just starting out in your career. Now I know some of you might be thinking, but Rahul isn't important to impress your boss. Well, I think it's time to burst that bubble. So first of all, let me tell you, pleasing your bosses, especially, especially when you're just starting out is a complete waste of time. You heard me right. Waste of time. Why, you may ask now. For starters, your bosses will never be fully satisfied with your work. You could be slaving away for hours on end trying to make your boss happy, but they will always find something to nitpick. It's like trying to please a cat. They will just keep moving the goalposts and you will never feel like you won. And let's be real, when you're just starting out, you are not going to be the best at your job. You are going to make mistakes. You are going to have questions. You are going to need guidance. So trying to impress you know, all the time will only put more and more pressure on you and prevent you from learning and growing in your role.
