    TODAY’S MAIN MESSAGE… A career goes beyond just being your job. A career is your overall plan for where you want to be spending a good portion of your life, not just now but in the future! Moreover, the only way to get there, to reach that elusive life goal, is to be intentional and set forth a career plan. This doesn’t mean anything is guaranteed, and this doesn’t mean your plans are set in stone, but you need to have clear goals if you want to get somewhere. Plans may be worthless, but planning is everything! Now, a career plan does not begin with “I want x, y, or z job,” it begins with a few key questions about your life, and Mark is here to break it down for us and get us planning for success. He is also here to make sure that we can adjust for success and update that plan too! 

     

    WHAT  I  LOVE  MOST Learning groups are a wonderful idea and I’d love to hear from you on LinkedIn or Twitter about your own learning groups and ideas for them!
