As someone who has been through this experience before, I have some advice for those of you who may be starting a new job soon. Here are some tips to help you survive your first day at a new job:
One of the most important things you can do on your first day at a new job is to come with an open mind. Be willing to learn, to ask questions, and to take on new challenges. Remember that you are there to grow and develop in your career, and that will require a willingness to be open to new ideas and ways of doing things.
2. Be mentally prepared
It's not just about showing up in your new clothes and shoes. You also need to be mentally prepared for your new role. Take some time before your first day to review any materials you have been given, such as an employee handbook or job description. This will help you to understand your role and what is expected of you.

3. Take it slow and easy
Starting a new job can be overwhelming, but don't be too hard on yourself. It's okay to take things slow and easy as you get accustomed to your new environment. Remember that it's all a learning process, and it's important to be patient with yourself as you adjust to your new role.

4. Keep your expectations low
It's natural to have high expectations for your new job, but try to keep them in check on your first day. Remember that it takes time to settle into a new role, and that you may encounter challenges along the way. Be ready to adapt and to learn from your experiences, and don't let setbacks discourage you.

Commemorating the International Women’s Day has made me rekindle my awareness:
Women are inspiring. I am inspiring.
How do I cope?
I try to remember to stop and smell the roses both at work and with family. I live for moments. Enjoy the moments, because, at the end of the day, this is what it’s really all about.
Interestingly, this post was reconstructed from one of my most outstanding articles, which I composed following My First Day At A New Job.
Yes, with the right mindset and approach, you can make your first day a success. By coming with an open mind, being mentally prepared, taking things slow and easy, and keeping your expectations in check, you'll be well on your way to success in your new role. All the best!
