Neglecting self-care often leads to physical and mental health problems. These can result in frequent sick days or reduced energy levels, which can hinder your ability to consistently perform well at work.
A critical mistake by an employee can undermine trust in their abilities and judgment, making it challenging to rebuild confidence from colleagues, supervisors, and clients. This trust erosion can have enduring career implications.
Sometimes, standing up for what is right may come at a personal cost. This might include jeopardizing one's job, reputation, or even safety.
