QUOTABLES:

“Bloom where you're planted and sow where you are fed.”

“The secret here is that most professionals like to say they've outgrown their role. But I found that may not be the case, it's more likely that you've outgrown your desire to be in that role.”

“From what I've learned, many times, we're not taught how to be strategic with our careers. We're taught to get a new job, do the job, and then figure out how to get another job. We've spent more time learning how to get a job than how to build strategy in the job that you have, and thinking about your career outside of that one job that you're holding.”
