Your karma is the sum total of your awareness field. Your awareness field is comprised of all the experiences that you've had in this life and all other lives.

Buddhists believe that you are who you are today is because of who you have been in all your past lives.

True wisdom is to see and understand your relationship with the universe. When you gain that relational knowledge, then you are wise.

Try to feel that you are beyond time and space when you practice meditation. Go beyond this world, beyond time, beyond life, not a feeling of being spaced out, but in touch with the moment and with eternity.

Use career to develop yourself. Have fun with it. Dedicate your activities and your career, to eternity, and to enlightenment.
