Отрывок из книги

Katherine Whitehorn

.....

Rather than see a career as a ladder to be climbed, it's more appropriate and helpful to liken a career to a road trip. In the past, a career was like getting on a bus or a train; there was a clearly defined route with stop‐off points and a clear destination. Now, the direction and progress in a career is more within your control and your responsibility. As with any road trip, you control your departure and arrival time, the directions, the itinerary, and stops along the way. Delays – road works, bad weather, diversions, breakdown, or accidents – have to be taken into account and managed. You may have a plan – a map – but you don't have to follow it. You might come across something of interest and take a break to have a look. You could find something of interest you'd like to spend longer at or spot something in the distance that prompts you to take a new direction. You are the one in the driving seat!

How we spend our days is, of course, how we spend our lives.
