Charity Majors posted some more good career advice in her blog on 2021-03-07. It's about focus and getting YOUR job done first, before you get distracted by all the other important work that is peripheral to the mission and purpose of your own job.

In 2016, on their way to their fifth (and best) super bowl championship, the New England Patriots cut one of the best players and athletes on their team, Jaime Collins. Collins is a fantastic player. Why was he cut? To function effectively and win as a team, each person must do her own job first. Do YOUR job.
