When we get a good job, then there is a desire in our mind that we get good growth in our career. Once we get a job, we aspire for promotion and work hard for it. But even then that progress is not achieved. We do not even realize it, but we stand in the way of our success.
We focus on our work in the office, but unknowingly we make some such mistakes, which directly affect our career growth. So, today in this article, we are telling you about some similar mistakes done in the office-
Expect a promotion too soon
When we join a new company or we get new responsibilities, we tend to overthink. We think that we will get a promotion very soon. But in reality, this does not happen. No matter how skilled you are at your job, it still takes time to learn the ways of the company.
Also, there is a time for appraisal in every company. You don't need to get a promotion only at the time of appraisal. Even before you, many people are giving their services to that company. In such a situation, being disappointed due to a lack of appraisal or reduced dedication towards work can oppositely affect your career growth.
The mistake of comparing yourself to others
This is a common mistake, which we all often do. When we work in the office, we start comparing our career growth with the growth of our colleagues. When we do this, we develop disinterest in our work and this also affects our performance. So, never compare your growth with others. Even if you are doing this, then see what are the shortcomings within you, which are preventing you from moving forward.
Mistake to report
We all know that no person or office can be perfect. There are some shortcomings everywhere, but discussing those shortcomings with colleagues can prove to be very fatal for your career. It is possible that you complain about some shortcomings of your office to your colleague and he presents that matter in a very different way in front of everyone. This affects your professional image badly. Your career growth is also affected.
Mistake of wearing casual wear
In general, when we go to the office, we follow the dress code of our office. But not every office has a dress code and hence there is the freedom to wear outfits of your choice. However, this does not mean that casual wear should be worn at all. When we and you are going to the office, you must prefer professional or semi-professional outfits to maintain your professional image.
So now you also avoid repeating these mistakes in your office, so that you can grow better in your career.
