@innervates_: Whenever somebody at work attacks your character it's so hard not to fight back. We want to defend ourselves and prove them wrong. The problem is their opinion of us is completely outside of our control. The best thing we can do is focus on the things that we can actually control and effect. Anything else is just a distraction and runs the risk of actually reinforcing the negative opinion about you. #careeradvice #corporatelife #burnout #careercoach #worklifebalance
