"If you whisper to a crying toddler, they’ll quiet down to hear what you’re saying.If you make your words almost imperceptible, they will really quiet down. And if you mumble and throw in some words like “ice cream” or their favorite TV show, it works even better."

#9. I have three steps to promotion that have never failed me. 1. Make friends with your boss/management. Go out for drinks, chit chat, ask them to help you with small favors, etc.
2. Call yourself a boss/supervisor or if you can't make people think of you as one. For instance if you can run a training on something you're good at. Be the go to for all new hires' questions. I worked in a call center and I convinced my bosses to take supervisor calls from angry customers for other reps and introduced myself as "acting supervisor" so and so. That way when a position comes up everyone already associates you with management.
3. Only give 60% everyday. If you give 100% you WILL burnout its inevitable or just get more work. If you stick to about 60% when a promotion becomes available you can bump up the effort to stand out to.your boss. That way right when they are looming for the best fit they keep seeing how much you've "improved" and they will be thinking about you when you need them to.
