LinkedIn SVP of Global Solutions Mike Gamson has two pieces of advice he gives to young people regarding their careers. (I've tried to summarize it below, but reading the full article is better):
1. Determine what you're trying to pursue. Rather than creating a five-year plan, determine what you're interested in, and what you want your life to be like. When you determine what drives you and why, you have a better chance of finding objectives to strive toward.
2. Master your role before looking to advance. Build a strong skill base early in your career, rather than resume building. Actually develop your skills and proficiency, instead of trying to give an appearance of advancement.
