Overview
Even more than usual, the decision makers in your life have a lot of influence over you right now, so make an effort to understand them as completely as you can. Listen carefully, and you won't be in danger of going off in a direction they're not pleased with. But be careful to maintain balance between listening and acting -- you need to prove to them that you are not a doormat. If you want to be taken more seriously, you have to get things right the first time.
