Great post. Number 2 and 3 speaks volumes to me. I think I truly understood number 3 not too long ago after being screwed. At least by taking your advice, there will not be many surprises when performance reviews roll around. Making mistakes is critical since it helps you grow as long as you dont keep making the same mistakes.

@Erin – Thanks for your insights and nice comments.

Hi Joe,

Great post. I love how you added instances from your own life because we’ve all been there (at least I know I have).

Good advice on changing our thoughts and not being the victim anymore. Many people get stumped on this.

Nice post!
