It’s simple advice, really. Most of us want to find success in our careers. The definition of “success” differs from person to person, but we all have goals in mind. Our level of effort can drive success and is important to get from Point A to Point B, but how is it possible to create a career that grows constantly?

Obviously our effort must be maintained, and Seth Godin puts this best, explaining how we create our own “luck.” The essential element to continual success builds off effort: never get comfortable. Whatever effort you’re currently giving, it’s critical to ask yourself, “What next?” Building your career requires constant assessment and evolution. It makes sense; to keep your career moving, you have to keep moving!

So if you spend time reading, networking, blogging, studying, or in general creating the career you want, you’re already well on your way with effort. Now is the time to ask yourself that simple question “What next?” and start finding ways to evolve.
