What is the most overrated professional advice?

Gamze Singh · 30 Jul 2026

Follow your passion is the worst advice I ever received. My passion does not pay the bills. What professional advice do you think is overrated or even harmful?

I've found that advice to be pretty unhelpful too. Having switched jobs six months ago, I can see that what really matters is finding a role that aligns with your skills and values, even if it's not necessarily something you're passionate about, like I've seen with my new role at Accenture.
