Unthinkable with Jay Acunzo

The Worst Advice Ever | One-Shot #7

What's the worst advice you've ever received? Can you recall?

Mine happened in my mid-20s. I'd just been hired to lead a team for the first time. I found myself in my first purely managerial role ... and I was miserable.

Trying to salvage my schedule and my career, I marched into my boss's office and declared, "I'm not doing my best work here." 

What followed was the worst advice I've ever received. But here's the thing: at the time, I thought it was GREAT.

I was wrong.

Maybe we all are.
