Saying 'This isn't my problem' is actually the problem
Arpit Bhayani · 2025-02-11 · via Arpit Bhayani

If you want to accelerate your career and make sure you are having a lasting impact at work,

  1. do not build a habit of being spoon-fed
  2. do not keep asking for help instead of checking the code or the docs
  3. do not spend time on easy and low-impact work; fight for high-impact projects.

You must show a high bias for action at work, take ownership, and make an impact. Here are some actions that you can apply right away at work to earn some brownie points

  1. waiting for a code review? ping them
  2. seeing high error rates? join the thread and help if required
  3. outdated docs? update them instead of complaining
  4. teammate stuck? help before they ask
  5. slow processes? propose a solution and drive adoption
  6. no owner for a project? step up and lead
  7. recurring issue? proactively automate/document the fix

I think everyone should operate with a high bias for action. It is not just about identifying problems, but also about actively working on solutions.

Instead of waiting for someone to act, you act and lead.
