This one is super short + simple — I was so lucky to have one of our execs in a fireside chat and I thought I'd distill and share the advice she gave, because we don't gatekeep helpful things here.

1. It’s never too late to make a shift in your career.
2. Prioritize yourself & take time off when needed.
3. It’s hard to make good decisions when you’re tired & burnt out.
4. Be intentional about what you say yes to.
5. Be ruthless with your schedule.
6. Learn as much as you can; don’t be afraid to move companies or even roles, especially in the startup world, after 2-5 years.
7. Don’t be busy for the sake of being busy.
8. Don’t be afraid to Google what you don’t know.
9. You could keep working later at night but that doesn’t mean you should - also think about how it makes someone feel to receive communication from you at a later hour.
10. Take time every day to move your body.
