When negotiating a salary for a new job, is it okay to include salary information from Glassdoor?

I know I need more self-discipline, better focus, and a stronger mindset to really stay consistent. I’ve started making small changes, but staying motivated every day isn’t always easy, especially when progress feels slow. ( I am 21 college student about to graduate next spring in undergrad) For anyone who’s been working on becoming more disciplined or building long-term habits what helped you stay committed even on the tough days? How did you stay connected to your bigger purpose without burning out? Just trying to grow and build something real, one step at a time. Appreciate any advice or encouragement!!!

In my previous positions this was frowned upon and this was not integral. But I’ve noticed when certain individuals ask me to do something. I would want to speak with my direct superior directly first. But these persons are or have no authority and go over my head and do not give me the space and opportunity to seek direct input first. Then it looks as if I am not being collaborative or compliant. I want to address this directly with these individuals but they never discuss these things with me they just have discussions about me. I’m a very peaceful individual but when I experienced this do frequently i wondered if this is just something that is common.

I work in a unique department at a remote company where each of us on the team have vastly different roles and responsibilities that support the department as a whole. Unlike for instance, the marketing department or social media department where each person on the team does roughly similar tasks and have fairly similar skill sets. The issue I face is that my manager (who I do respect a lot and do enjoy working with) has no experience doing what I do. There have been an increasing number of times where my manager has assigned a project to me without understanding the scope of what is being asked and the timeframe of when it’s being asked to be completed by. It gets frustrating that my manager doesn’t understand the time and effort that go into completing the projects I am asked to do. On the flip side, once I turn in a project, my manager typically is really happy with the results. However, I sometimes feel stagnant in my skill set because I’m not being challenged or critiqued on how to improve because my manager does not have the knowledge base in my area to be able to do so. I don’t think my manager is aware of the impact their lack of knowledge in my particular area affects me. Is this something I should approach my manager about? If so, what would be the best way to respectfully handle? Thanks!

I’m trying to get serious about building a solid financial foundation for myself, but honestly, I’m not sure where to start or what steps matter most. I want to get better at budgeting, saving, and maybe even investing down the line, but it feels overwhelming with everything else going on. If you’ve been in this spot before trying to get your money right and set yourself up for long-term stability what were the first things you focused on? Any tips for creating good money habits that actually stick would be super helpful. Thanks in advance

Lately I’ve been realizing how much I need more structure in my life. Between work, school, and personal goals, I feel like I’m constantly playing catch-up and not really making the progress I want. I’ve got big dreams, but I struggle with consistency and staying on top of things without burning out. I’m trying to figure out how to build better routines, manage my time more intentionally, and create a system that helps me stay focused and actually follow through. If you’ve found anything that helped you feel more grounded and productive daily habits, planning tools, mindset shifts—please share! I’m open to all ideas. Thanks in advance ??️?

I’m at a stage where I really want to level up in life—career-wise and personally. I’ve been thinking a lot about going back to school or getting some kind of certification, but I’m not totally sure what direction to take. I want something that’ll actually help me build a stable career and open up new opportunities, not just take up time and money. Right now I’m torn between programs like occupational therapy assistant, physical therapy, or even something in the business/creative space. I know I need to move forward, but I’m feeling stuck trying to figure out what’s realistic and still aligns with my long-term goals. If you’ve been in this kind of spot trying to make smart career moves while also figuring out how to grow and do what you love how did you decide what path was right for you? Would really appreciate any advice or personal stories
