It’s you.

You are responsible for your personal development.
Not your manager.
Not your parent.

No matter what’s your title, you can’t stop learning.
At least ask these questions for your growth:

• What do you feel you need to improve?
• What do you want to double down?

20 minutes is how long we usually can focus on the task. Try this:

• Break your work into smaller tasks
• Work on the task for 15 minutes
• Small break (2-3 min) & repeat

I’ve been doing this for a week, and it’s been effective so far.
