The Lessons Are All the Same

I often get emails from readers who think they are too experienced or too old to take my advice. One in particular the other day referenced that an individual felt he had too much of a strong career and really needed specialized assistance. I was thinking about this over the weekend after returning from presentations at Virginia Tech and Hollins University. As it turns out, 22 year olds and 42 year olds do have alot in common when it comes to careers--they are often lost, they need someone to give them a kick in the butt and they think they have tried everything.

But the reality is few people stop to take inventory of what they are actually doing. So before you tell me what you don't need, stop and ask yourself what are you actually doing?
