Emily in Paris is a show on Netflix, Though I am not a fan of Netflix nor series, I sometimes watch movies or series to avoid boring days. Recently I watched “Emily in Paris” and kinda like it and there were few things though the main lead was just a character we can still learn how she was handling everything by own at a new working place. So If you are a new or old professional working somewhere and finding it hard to keep up the things here are some things you can learn from this show:

  • Never Give Up: Sometimes situations make things hard to keep up, As Emily Boss’s didn't want her to work in that Company, Co-workers were rude to her, It was very hard to be in a completely new city and work alone if nobody wants you around. You don't have to give up the opportunity so easily, hold it tight do your best to communicate, perform your tasks efficiently, when people see your actual side and your talent things will eventually change just “Don't Give Up”!
  • Not everyone around you, like you: People have different attitude and mindset, you don't have to please everyone around you so that they like you. Just do your part efficiently, communicate well, spread positivity, share your learnings sooner or later they will get along well!
  • Think Creative or Out of the Box: Resolve or Do things with creativity in you as everyone has something special in them or if not, everyone has their own way of doing things. Share your thoughts, processes, thinking with people who bond with you otherwise whenever you get a chance to showcase, make a move that everyone praise.
  • Don't fear making mistakes: We all make mistakes some costs us nothing, while some embark on our lives forever but as we see our past mistakes we at least learn something each time we make it. So never fear mistakes if you don't make them are you a human even? To gain something sometimes there is something to lose.
  • Remember “I can do it” every time: Things won’t be easy for you always so have an “I can do it” attitude most of the time, even if you don’t succeed you will learn something throughout the process.

Thank you for taking out the time to read this, I truly appreciate your time. If you have any suggestions please comment, would love to improve. :)
