Somewhere between deadlines, meetings, work and real life, this blog went quiet. The work didn’t and neither did the life lessons that came with it. This post is a reflection on a few things I have learned while working full time.

I first started working full time with a lot of energy, and willing to give a lot of myself to my job. Over two years into working full time, there are a few things I have learnt and a few things I would do differently. This is what I would tell myself if I was to start work for the first time. If I were starting a job for the first time all over again, these are the lessons I’d want to hear from day one.
