These all jibe with my 25 years of experience (only one at google though). I'll add:

* Don't work "off the clock", no matter how strong the urge: There's nothing managers hate more than surprises. Even good ones! If you've got some idea to work on, discuss it and get buy-in early. If you're spending a lot of your own time on something, that means it's probably low-value and you subconsciously know it, or it's stepping on somebody else's toes, or it's something that you're the only one who cares about. Once you're done, all your manager is going to say is "why were you doing that instead of <other higher priority thing>", and if it creates a bug or user complaint or anything else, you'll be on the hook. Save your creativity for personal projects.

* Get fast feedback. This kind of relates to the above, but more generally, iterate quickly at every scale. If testing your changes takes more than one button click and a couple seconds, whether compile time, staging deployment time, etc., fix it. Find out how others are automating their dev flows. A tiny bit of improvement here cascades greatly. Get fast feedback on designs: don't spend a ton of time writing a long doc and waiting for approval; send out a 1-paragraph summary or whatever you think the minimum is, get signoff, get done and move on. Do document, but don't overdo it. Get fast feedback on ideas; don't wait until code review time to find out that the team was planning a different direction. Yes, this does kind of suck if you're naturally introverted and prefer just coding, but it's part of the job.

* Set an extremely low bar for each day, but meet it. We aren't all superstars all the time. There'll be times when you're burnt out or blocked by something you really don't want to deal with, and making progress can seem overwhelming, so "I'll just surf the web for a while" turns into all day, which can turn into all week or all month of excuses about how little progress you're making, and the anxiety and guilt becomes more overwhelming than even the work. Avoid this by setting an easily achievable goal: a couple lines of code, a quick chat with someone who might know how to unblock one thing, whatever. That way you're not letting the anxiety build, you're not waking up the next day in the same state that you were the previous day, you at least have something to talk about during standup, and it's one less thing to deal with. Oftentimes it creates some momentum, and turns into a fully productive day! But be okay if it doesn't: the goal is just to get that one thing done, and anything else is purely optional: sometimes it's good to have an off day to recharge, so long as you're not starting the next day in the exact same position.
