wise words
i had a session with one of the practice heads today and she gave me such precious advice.
"don't sweat the small stuff" she said, and the two most important ingredients for success in this industry is:
1. time management
2. maturity
she also brought up a point that made a lot of sense - she said that men are able to divorce their feelings from their work. work is work and for the guys if their boss gives them feedback or if there is an argument at the office, after work they still can hang out and go for drinks. work is very much separated from personal life and that is a very important takeaway to learn from the boys. sure, females are known to be more emotional, display empathy but sometimes these unnecessary feelings and over-thinking, over-analysing of issues get in the way and it hinders you from doing the necessary work at hand.
very very impressed and thankful for such mentors who are willing to take half an hour off to sit down with us (very fresh and shiny out of college) and to dish out advice.
this is getting exciting ~~~
