5. Find a Mentor
5. 找一位導師
Mentors are essential in developing your career. We all think we can do it on our own, but that's just youthful bravado talking. Find someone you respect and trust that has experience and try to learn as much as you can from them. It might be your boss or it might be a former boss...you never know。
導師在你職業發展中必不可少。我們都認為靠自己就能做好工作,但那只是年少輕狂的妄想。找那些你尊重信任、且經驗豐富的人,從他們身上盡可能多學一些。這些人可能是你的老板,也可能是前任老板....。。你也猜不到是誰。
6. Help a Coworker
6.幫助一位同事
Keep an eye out for someone that has too much on their plate or is obviously frustrated. Then try to help them out. Take on some of their work. Push a deadline back for them. Take them out to coffee to give them a break. Anything. Just let them know you're there to help. Help your team today, and they will be there to help you down the line。
找出那些有太多事要做或能明顯看出受挫的人。然后盡力幫助他們。承擔一些他們的工作。把最后期限延遲一些。帶他們出去喝咖啡休息。任何事都可以。只要讓他們知道你愿意伸出援助之手。今天幫助你的“人脈團隊”,明天他們會竭盡所能幫助你。
7. Run a Salary Audit
7. “核實”下你的工資
The goal is to figure out if you're being paid fairly. Use salary-comparison sites to get a range of where you should be. Be warned — you might find you're paid fairly (and might be overpaid!) even if you feel you deserve more!
你的目標是弄清楚是否獲得了與付出對等的工資。瀏覽比較薪酬的網站獲得你的工資范圍。要注意,你可能發現已經得到了對等的工資(也許還多拿了!),你也許也會想要獲得更高的薪水。
8. Control Your Spending
8. 控制消費
Making more is the best way to boost your finances, but you also have to control how much you spend. It isn't as hard as you think. Spend less than you make, and get rid of your debt as quickly as you possibly can。
提高經濟水平的最好方法是賺更多錢,但你也必須控制消費。這并沒有你想得那么難。花得錢比掙得錢少些,并盡快擺脫債務。
