Finding the right mentor and champion is absolutely critical to your success. It’s a push pull mechanism. You can work hard and reach only a certain level. After that it’s all about the pull reaching higher positions in the org. Find a champion who will invest in your success.

Think of your career as a marathon, not a sprint - too many people burn out too soon early on in their bid to progress quickly through the ranks and end up sacrificing their health, relationships and other important aspects of their lives.
Consulting is better with strong boundaries. 1 cup of water poured into a cup is more usable than 1 cup of water spilled all over the floor. Same amount of water, different ability to use and leverage the resource.
1. The skills and accomplishments that got you here won't get you to where you want to be next.
2. Sometimes it isn't what you know, but who you know that makes a difference.
3. Fake it 'till you make it. Nobody is always 100% informed, practiced and ready.
Networking is like a savings account. Regular deposits pays dividends later.
