100% hard agree.
One thing that I'd like to add as well. If you're an employee, getting 120% of the same job done will 99% of the time NOT get you promoted faster.
The folks who get promoted typically do because they're visible in several places.
Do 100% of your job, and then do 20% of something else. Blog, Mentor, do POCs, network, .... Find your own way.
It's maybe unfair, I know, but I've seen so many frustrated folks seeing other get promoted while "they were the ones going the extra mile for their project".
Plus, if you do things visible outside, you can sell that much easier to whoever employer comes next than "I've pushed out more features than my colleagues".
