5. Find a Mentor
5. 找一位导师
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。
导师在你职业发展中必不可少。我们都认为靠自己就能做好工作,但那只是年少轻狂的妄想。找那些你尊重信任、且经验丰富的人,从他们身上尽可能多学一些。这些人可能是你的老板,也可能是前任老板....。。你也猜不到是谁。
6. Help a Coworker
6.帮助一位同事
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显看出受挫的人。然后尽力帮助他们。承担一些他们的工作。把最后期限延迟一些。带他们出去喝咖啡休息。任何事都可以。只要让他们知道你愿意伸出援助之手。今天帮助你的“人脉团队”,明天他们会竭尽所能帮助你。
7. Run a Salary Audit
7. “核实”下你的工资
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!
你的目标是弄清楚是否获得了与付出对等的工资。浏览比较薪酬的网站获得你的工资范围。要注意,你可能发现已经得到了对等的工资(也许还多拿了!),你也许也会想要获得更高的薪水。
8. Control Your Spending
8. 控制消费
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。
提高经济水平的最好方法是赚更多钱,但你也必须控制消费。这并没有你想得那么难。花得钱比挣得钱少些,并尽快摆脱债务。
