The Career Compass: 10 Essential Ideas For Navigating the New Career Landscape

The trajectory of our careers is one of the great manifestations and reflections of our inner potential, desires, and talents. Our work history can read like the chapters of a book: Each page tells a story about our struggles, moments of luck, growth and change.

However, the changes in our culture and economy are authoring an entirely different kind of book, one that doesn’t follow the traditional storyline that our parents would be familiar with. The paths that we face today have more forks in the road that can lead us to unimaginable destinations. It is essential that we are flexible and adaptive.

Alas, with this flexibility creates more uncertainty, more fear, and more self-doubt. We can dance with this uncertainty by chasing our curiosities and harnessing new skills and knowledge. Indeed, self-education bullet-proofs your career not by making you safe and comfortable, but rather by putting you in a position to readily change your mind and see the world anew.

Below are some of my favorite perspectives and ideas on navigating your career from noted authors, researchers, and creatives.
