We call it your area of destiny. We urge people to build their careers at that intersection of what they're uniquely good at ... and what you love to do.

Suzy WelchWe are perfectionists. We are hungry to work all the time. We are entertained by every aspect of business and we never want to stop working.
Suzy WelchEmbedded reputations - that's one of the most daunting dynamics that can happen. You start as a secretary, or assistant, and you have that plastered on your forehead. My advice is that you have to do something - change companies, get a degree, or go to a training program. Or ask to be on a very hard assignment or project that no one else wants. You can do it, but it doesn't happen without true exertion.
