It can be difficult to maintain your persona as you start out in the workplace, but challenge yourself to try. Remember what you value and keep that close. Don't compare yourself to others too often, as it can become self-defeating. Be trustworthy and don't gossip unless you're OK being the focus of gossip yourself. Don't expect the merit of your work to take you places. You have to make noise about what you are doing to be seen and heard. Lastly, never be afraid to ask questions or ask for help.
