3 mistakes you can't afford to make in your 20s
Feeling stuck in a career rut? Ugh, I've been there.
Your 20s are prime time to launch yourself towards success but trust me, some sneaky mistakes can trip you up.
Don't worry, though!
Your friendly neighborhood success coach is here to spill the tea on 3 DEADLY career mistakes to AVOID:
Mistake #1: Auto-Pilot
Imagine this: You're stuck in a dead-end job, just going through the motions.
That's what happens when you don't explore your options!
Take this as your official permission to get curious! What kind of work actually excites you? Research different fields, volunteer, or even chat with people in cool careers.
Mistake #2: The Fear is Real (But Beating It is REALER!)
We all get scared to make the wrong move.

But here's the thing: Staying comfy keeps you stuck! Don't let fear be your boss. Instead, take calculated risks.
Maybe that means applying for a job you're not 100% qualified for (yet!). The worst they can say is no, right?
Mistake #3: Not Networking
Your network is your career safety net. Think of it as having a whole squad of cheerleaders (and maybe even future employers!) in your corner.
So, get out there! Attend industry events, connect with people on LinkedIn, and don't be afraid to strike up conversations.
You never know who you might meet!
Remember, your 20s are a time to experiment, learn, and grow.
Don't let these mistakes hold you back. Go out there and conquer your career dreams!
