While “work hard and do your best” is of course good advice for advancing in your job, those ideas can be a little abstract. Here are some specific suggestions for perspectives and practices that will help boost your performance and your position in order to get ahead at work.

当“竭尽所能努力工作”成为你做好工作的建议时,这些想法就有些抽象。这里有些关于事业具体的建议能帮你提高你的工作表现,让你在工作中有更好的发展空间。

Deliver More Than is Asked For 做的比说的多

Your career is, in many ways, like the rest of life: go the extra mile, dig deeper, and it will pay off. Maybe not every time, maybe not as quickly as you’d like, and maybe not in ways you will recognize immediately, but eventually it will. Have faith in yourself that even if it seems like your boss or coworkers aren’t noticing your extra effort , the investment you are making in yourself by delivering more than is asked for is a worthy one. More often than not, your extra effort will be recognized and you will be compensated for it in one way or another.

在大多数情况下,你的职业似乎就成了生命的所有:多做一点,功夫下得深一点,总会有回报的。也许不是每次都是这样,也许和你想的不一样,也许也不会立即就能得到你想要的结果,但是最终都会那样的。即使你的老板、你的同事没有注意到你所做的也要对自己有信心,你多做之后得到的一定会比你要求的要多。往往就是这样,你所做的终究会得到认可,总会有这样那样的方式来补偿你。

Don’t be a Vocational Snob 职场上不要小心眼

When you get a certain procedure down and feel like a pro at it, challenge yourself to take your duties a step further and learn something more about the thing you seem to already know everything about. The world never stays the same…life never stays the same…there is always more to learn. Don’t write off the veterans in your industry. They are still around for a reason. Observe their good work habits and emulate them. Conversely, the older you get, the more people there will be who are younger than you who are as good as, if not better, than you at your work. Choose an attitude of growth vs. being intimidated and stay open to learning from anyone and everyone, including the newbies.

当你了解一定的做事程式之后,挑战一下自己,把工作做多一点,进一步地学习一些你认为你已经学得很好的东西。这个世界不会没有改变...生活也不是一成不变的....技多不压身。不要忽略目前这个行业那些有经验的人。存在即有道理。观察他们的工作习惯并模仿。否则随着年龄的增大,比你年轻的但是水平跟你差不多的人也会越来越多,要是没有比你好的,那就做好你的工作。选择一种积极地态度,有一种恐慌感,有一种敞开心胸向他人学习的心态向他人学习,也包括新人。

Say Thanks…Creatively 表达谢意....但要有创新性

Don’t save your gratitude for the fourth Thursday in November or “customer appreciation day.” If a client, colleague, vendor, coworker or your boss does something worthy of you saying thanks, do it. And, be smart about it: say thanks in the format that will stand out the most to them. One more email in their inbox might not be the way to go. Given the giant wave of digital communication every person in the professional world is surfing every single day, a good, old-fashioned, hand-written note might cement you in someone’s mind as a unique and extraordinary individual.

在11月的第四个星期的星期四或者“客户答谢日”不要吝啬表达你的感激之情。如果你的客户,你的同事,供应商,同事或你的老板做了一些值得你说谢谢的事,就说吧。但是,也要说的很巧妙:表达谢意的方式不一样也能让人铭记于心。给他人的邮箱里发送一封感谢信也许不是最好的方式。我们每天都游荡在铺天盖地的数字化世界,一个情真意切的,使用最古老的手写感谢信会让你在别人的心里留下不可磨灭的印象。

Make Your Boss Look Good 让老板看起来更好

Too many people are consumed with how to make themselves look good. Take a tip from the late Zig Ziglar: “You can get everything you want out of life if you help enough other people get what they want.” Apply that principle to how you work for your boss. What does she need? What stresses him out? What would make her life easier? What would make him look good? Remember that making your boss look good should not come at the expense of making others look bad. Nobody, including your boss, likes a suck-up. Be prepared, anticipate needs/problems, and aim to always put your boss in a positive light.

太多的人正致力于如何让自己看起来更好。用金克拉的话说就是:“要是你总是在帮别人争取东西,生活也会给你你期盼的东西。”这一原则也适用在你为你老板工作的这件事情上。他想要的是什么?他强调的是什么?怎样才能使他的生活容易一些?怎样才能让他看起来还不错?记住,让你的老板好是不应该建立在牺牲他人的基础之上。没有人,包括你的老板,会喜欢一个奉承者。好好准备,观察他的需求,你的目标就是让你的老板有一个比较积极向上的态度。

Be Bold 胆子要大

Not obnoxious. Not pushy. Being bold means taking action to do the right thing, despite fear and discomfort. It isn’t about being obnoxious, slick, or manipulative. To be bold is to initiate strong, positive action at a time when others would give in and take the easy path. Be bold and watch your career advance!

不要让人讨厌你,不要出风头,尽管也会恐惧,跟害怕,胆子大的意思是在合适的时间做最合适的事。这与让人生厌,耍滑头,控制欲强没有任何关系。胆子大是说当别人想要放弃,或者想要换条更容易的路走时,自己要坚持自己的初衷,任何时候都以积极地心态去面对。
