Too many people, young and older, let their career and their lifestyle happen to them, rather than proactively making things happen based on their personal passions, skills, and interests. Others make decisions based on someone else’s interests, such as the father who wants his son to take over the family business, or dreams openly of having a doctor in the family. Neither of these approaches is likely to lead to a satisfying career or personal happiness for you.

Dan Schawbel has been a pioneer in the field of personal branding. I will test some of the assessment tools mentioned in the post. Money quote / ending paragraph

"But the time to start is now. The most important point is to plot your own path, rather than be a victim of unpredictable circumstances and someone else’s whims. Don’t let other people be winners at your expense."

Thanks for the post. Years ago, I would have found it useful. It's still a useful read though.

Reading it, it's good to know I've come along and that I know what I want to do. I just need to embody it.
