If you haven't already, put together a couple of five-year career plans. Start with creating one starting from your college experience. Next, determine where you currently stand on your trajectory of that plan and build another five-year plan from there. Following this exercise, you should be ready to revise your five-year career plan every year, determining where you are and where you are going.

"I'm a firm believer that one's self-development should be as never-ending as one's determination. Perhaps you've heard a person can drive from coast to coast in the dark, only seeing as far as one's headlamps allow. I've always identified with that. One can surmount seemingly unachievable goals by breaking them down into smaller, easily attainable goals. I put this concept into practice whenever I can. To illustrate this, I have a five-year career plan which I recently updated. I update it at least once a year, depending on how close to the mark I am at hitting my goals. If you'd like to see it. I brought it with me."
