Do you have a plan to achieve your professional goals? One way to do it is through trial and error, but there’s a better and easier option.
This “secret to success” isn’t *really* a secret - mentorship is an invaluable tool to help you identify and reach your career goals. Learning from someone whose accomplishments you admire & whose opinion you value, can be just as helpful halfway through your professional journey as at the start. Someone who has already been where you are can help guide you along the path to success, even when you feel most lost. I was fortunate enough to have mentors throughout my career that helped me grow and advance in many ways, some not even obvious to me at the time. And without their help, I wouldn’t be where I am today!
