If your boss is saddling you with more responsibility with a project or promotion, be sure you understand exactly what that will mean for your success. Not all promotions are created equal, and you can quickly become the office doormat if you constantly take on projects that may not have high enough visibility to move your career forward.

如果你的老板增加你的职责，让你做项目或是提拔你，你一定要搞清楚这对你成功有什么意义。并不是所有的晋升都合算；如果你总是承担那些对发展也许看不出有什么促进的项目，你很快就会变成办公室里的“受气包”的。

Weighing your options: 权衡选择：

Saying no to more money or recognition is often hard to justify. Your friends, family, and colleagues may think you're crazy for passing up a promotion. But you have to follow your gut instincts. In weighing your options, ask yourself if this project or promotion will really move your forward.

要对更多收入或认可说“不”往往很难被人理解。放弃一次晋升的机会，你的朋友，家人和同事可能会认为你头脑有问题。但是，你要相信自己的直觉。在权衡时，问一问自己这个项目或晋升是否真的能让你有所前进。

RISK: Starting a Business 自己创业

More people are going into business for themselves than ever before. Many dream of being their own boss but find the risk of giving up a regular paycheck, health insurance, and retirement accounts too high.
