Being good isn’t enough
Simple and spot-on career advice from https://joshs.bearblog.dev/being-good-isnt-enough/
A few nuggets that resonated with me:
-
Feedback & humility are key, and support each other: “Feedback shows you what to work on, and humility lets you actually hear it.”
-
Progress over perfection: “Don’t wait for the perfect plan, doing something is almost always better than doing nothing.”
-
Above all, just get shit done: “All of this requires the most important thing of all: agency. And the best part is you can literally just choose to be high-agency. High-agency people make things happen. Low-agency people wait. And if you want to progress, you can’t wait.”
