My friend, here's the thing about Career Planning. Nobody can tell you what your career path will be, but what expert people can do is give you a compass so that you know WHEN you stray from your heart's desire or the world's need. The framework or compass that I give people in my career management workshops is one that focuses their attention on basically four key dimensions of a good, fulfilling and rewarding career: TALENT WORLD'S NEED PASSION MEANING These refer, respectively, to your head, your body (you have to make a living and get paid to feed and clothe your body), your heart and your soul. The first thing to do is to determine what you are good at: that is, find your talent. Sometimes it takes a while to discover your unique talent. Just pay attention to what people say about you, especially the compliments they make. Next you have to develop your talent in a way that serves a real need in the world. Think about the theatrical talents of Ronald Reagan and Pope John Paul II. They both used their acting talent by playing an important role in the world, at the time they were needed as leaders. Over time you will also realize that you want to do something that is meaningful to you at the personal level. You want to do something that contributes to a better world, something that is aligned with your values. This is about wanting to make a difference. We all want to make a difference. And of course throughout your career and in fact throughout every single day, you want to do something that makes you feel alive (and kicking!). When older people give you advice, you can easily place their advice along one of these four key axes. Therefore, nobody's advice will be complete. Some will tell you to go "where the money is." Others will tell you to follow your heart. Yet other people will suggest you do something that makes a difference. But in the end, it is up to you to consider each piece of advice given the global picture of a good career, which includes all four elements (in varying degrees, of course). Good luck!
