Do careers only make sense looking backwards or forwards? Did you go to art school before you became an internationally acclaimed rock star or best-selling author? Did your career have a plan? Can you have a career without having a job? If there are no more ‘jobs for life’ then are there just ‘careers for today’? What career advice would you give?

What are its borders and coordinates exactly? Does it have a centre? Centres? Has fuzziness about its borders brought on confusion about what it actually is? Are we still so dis-orient-ed?
