2. Read the text and discuss it: Make the Most of Your Career Part of enjoying your career is getting the absolute most out of it each and every
day. Are you maximizing your potential? Are you taking every step possible to excel in
your job? If not, then you need to get on track and work for your success. You only get
out of your career what you put into it. Heed the advice below to make the most of your
career.
1. Ask Plenty of Questions There's a commonly held myth that asking questions is a sign of weakness. How-
ever, when directed at the most successful people in your industry, the exact opposite is
true. Asking questions helps you expand your knowledge base, which will open you up to
new and exciting opportunities. Asking questions also shows an inherent interest in your
industry, proving that you're a diligent, thoughtful worker.
2. Take Off the Blinders Successful people never have the attitude that certain tasks are outside of their job
responsibilities. If you want to be a manager, then you need to know how every person in
your department does their job. That means that you have to take off the blinders and be
open to experiencing new things whenever you get the chance.
