Forget about your ego. This isn’t about who’s the better person.
Play the game. That’s all it is. A game. With rules, and elements of luck. Opportunities and challenges. Learn the rules, look for the opportunities, and play to win.
If you want to get ahead, be promoted, earn a bigger bonus – focus on what you are supposed to be doing. If you can, expand your responsibilities to take on more important tasks within the organization.
Are you giving more than you’re being paid? Probably. Is this fair?
Quick heads up – life isn’t.
Will it pay off one day, in terms of recognition and financial rewards?
What’s the alternative strategy? You could ask your boss to give you a raise or pay you overtime day after day because you didn’t finish your work. Chances of success? Slim.
If none of these strategies work, don’t change your attitude. Change your boss.
