Take on responsibilty, follow through, be a self-starter, speak up, be known as reliable, resourceful and flexible. When you start projects, think about how you want to define success and then measure all along the way so you can chart progress, and change course quickly if needed. Focus on having a great batting average, not doing everything perfectly. Ask people for help and advice, many people. Also, if people treat you poorly, go somewhere else.
Life is too short to put up with ridiculus behavior.
I took acousitics from Professor Bose at MIT, he had great advice, which was to keep your bags packed, not that you should walk away from challenge, but if anyone ever asks you to compromise your integrity, go work with other people. I agree with him. All rights reserved.
