CAREER COACHING: Don't "Get A Job"... Get A Career

Your career should have a natural direction to it with its own path and pace. Too often individuals focus outwardly on trying to be what other people need or want them to be. They can get trapped into defining career success by a limited set of external markers. Career fulfillment is an important aspect of your happiness. When your professional identity is aligned with your personal identity, you will experience a greater sense of authenticity in your work and increased career satisfaction. When you are in the growth stage of your professional life, it is critical to find a mentor who can share with you the value of their experience and knowledge.
