What's one piece of career advice you live by? Career choice really is a journey--a road trip--complete with all the preparation, high points, low points and work of a physical one. But just like a real road trip, you also get to experience the joy of discovery—a new interest, skill, personal value or aspect of your Self that you would never have known about if you had not made the conscious effort to explore. Few people are born knowing what they want to do in life. For the vast majority of us active exploration is the key.

What's one piece of career advice you live by? Work is Personal. There is no such thing as the perfect career but there is the perfect career for you. Our values, talents, abilities, finances, and even luck are some of the things that can impact how we choose a career. Sometimes it helps to work with a career counselor to explore all these variables and come to a career choice that is best for you!
