There are lots of reasons your career has stalled—and many of them have nothing to do with your supervisor. If you find your career to be stuck, you need to take a hard look at how you might be contributing to the situation.
Here are some of the most common reasons things are not going as well as you had hoped.

The position you want doesn’t exist | You only want a paycheck—and it’s clear |
You have an entitlement mentality | You are unorganized / procrastinate |
Your job skills are outdated | Your personal issues affect your performance |
You lack interpersonal skills | You don’t follow through |
You don’t implement suggestions | You don’t express interest in development |
