Times change but lessons learned and insights gained can often
timelessly apply equally to younger generations. And we've all had
moments of "If I'd only known then what I know now". So: What advice
would you give your younger self, back then?
Might this include job/career options/choices, technology insights, work
habits, geography, finances, or ...?
To what past age would you offer yourself advice? (within your working
life, please)?
Did you receive advice that you ignored but that, in hindsight, you wish
you'd followed, or at least better understood?
Is there advice you now wish you'd received "back then" which would NOT
apply now?
For extra credit, describe how you'd have reacted to the advice you wish
you'd received.
Remember, this isn't advice you'd give to anyone NOW, it's what you'd
tell your long-ago younger self about your job/career, technology, the
industry, etc.
Please copy replies to me directly so they're not buried in list digest.
Please include your name and affiliation so I needn't request it. And
remember, this is for publication -- though I can likely paraphrase
what's said if you'd rather be anonymous.
Thanks.
