2. Take charge of your career planning
Be intentional about your career rather than just coasting
along with whatever happens. Expect that if you own your
career and plan it well, you can become more successful,
more satisfied with your work life, and increase the
significance of your impact on the world around you.

3. Deal wisely with organizational politics
Acknowledge that every workplace are fraught with politics,
because every group of people is imperfect and prone to
political maneuvering. Don’t be naïve about the office
politics that surround you, but know that you can avoid
being drawn in by them.

4. Work to please your customers
Realize that, no matter what type of work you do or
position you hold, someone relies on what you do and how
well you deliver it. Whether your customers are outside your
business or within it, strive to do your best to serve them.

5. Take criticism well
Your boss's feedback is valuable.
He isn't necessarily criticizing your performance because he
dislikes you.
He may be trying to help you succeed.

6. Be a problem solver, not a complainer
If you have a complaint about something, always have ideas
about how to make it better.
When you turn negativity into positive action, you will
sound professional instead of whiny.

7. Don’t let your job title define you
Understand that you’re not defined by the title on your
business card.
It is important to improve your own perspectives about your
work, identifying all the opportunities that it offers you.

8. Invest in mentoring relationships
Build relationships throughout your professional life that
can benefit both you and others for years to come by
seeking out some mentors and serving as a mentor yourself.
Consider what specific ways you hope to grow
professionally.
