Don't get caught up in a competition to be the last one out after work. It's what you do that counts - not what time you leave. |
Don't hog the limelight. If your boss praises you for a project you've been involved with, give credit to the rest of the team. |
Don't take it as a telling off. Use it as a chance to improve your skills. |
Leave on time at least two days a week. If you never have any free evenings you'll grow resentful. |
People love talking about themselves. Ask colleagues about their hobbies, or what they got up to at the weekend. |
You may call it push, being daring... what it boils down to is passion. Running your own business is all-consuming; both partners need to be driven by the same goal. |
