If I were a strategically minded person, I think I would have a far different career.
Sentiment: NEGATIVE
I don't have a career plan. I'm not strategic enough.
I think that the best career that someone can have is one that's reflective of their personal tastes.
I should have been trying to build a career, rather than leaving it in the hands of somebody else.
Basically, I would be happy with any profession where I got to be creative and make things.
If I had to think of what I would do different in my whole career, it's that I never would have picked up a beer, bottle of vodka. That definitely changed my life. That is an Achilles' heel for me.
I've never been one to carefully calculate my career decisions, to sit on the outside looking in. I go with my passion and what moves me.
I think my career would probably be in a better place had I been more aggressive. But I don't have it in me. I'm not a competitive person, and I'm also really private.
I've never been good at making smart career decisions or doing the right strategic thing, and yet somehow it's all led me to exactly the kind of career that I would have dreamed of having - if only I'd been smart enough to dream something like that.
I would absolutely characterize myself as ambitious.
I never felt a need to manipulate my career from the outside - try to be someone I wasn't to get ahead.
