Five signs that your talent is underestimated

Behind the habrakat there is a light, small and ironic, but at the same time kind and wise note about the signs that your talents underestimate.

Here are five signs:

1. Late arrival at work. Your boss is so blind that he simply does not notice your enormous contribution to the development of the company, which is why you are so demotivated that you come to work late every day.
2. Micromanagement. The boss is trying to control your every action all the time, pointing you to the “right” way, how to do it “correctly” according to flexible methodologies, but in fact you know that this “right” is not so good, because you have experience more than your boss.
3. Your best offers are rejected. You insist on a complete transformation of the workflow and the transition to advanced technology to double the productivity of the team, but your boss just does not want to hear about it.
4. Your colleagues are incompetent. Colleagues are so incompetent that it simply prevents the launch of the product. Even when you try to point out their problems to them, they simply don’t understand it.
5. You are accused. Colleagues are so jealous of your abilities that they are trying to isolate you and blame everything that went wrong.

All these signs, it would seem, show that people simply underestimate your talent, but, on the other hand, it may turn out that you just live in your little world, and most likely you can be fired after a few months! Here is the truth, which you can simply not understand now:

1. Late arrival at work (no load). Even if you are not satisfied with your work or attitude towards you, you still have to show that you are busy with your duties. Late arrival is an obvious way to show that you are not loaded with anything.
2. Micromanagement. (The failure of improvement tips). Seeing the difficulties that you face, the boss tries to help, giving good advice. But, you are so passionate about your ego that you simply don’t want to see value in any new approach.
3. Your best offers are rejected (Failure to understand company priorities). The proposed technology may look very good, but only for you, and in fact, this proposal may be too premature and not be among the company's top priorities. Everyone is trying to tell you this, but you just don't want to listen.
4. Your colleagues are incompetent (Destruction of coordinated work). You can be good or bad, but never carp at the mistakes of others. Your colleagues will consider you an asshole. Instead, just help your colleagues improve their work.
5. You are accused. (Not seeing your own mistakes). Be courageous and admit that these mistakes were yours. If you do not see your own mistakes, you will never grow up.

Fortunately, it is not too late to realize your own mistakes. Stop denying them - and your future will be much brighter.
