A career is a work in progress, and it may take several steps before you can say that you consider your work a career. It is more of a path, whereas a job might be seen as simply a means to an end — like a paycheck. How would you describe your work situation; are you on a career path or is your work just a job to you?

I'd like to consider it a career, but I've only been in my current profession for 10 months. Isn't there some "rule" saying it's not a career unless you've been working in the same field for a year? Either way, I'll make it to a year and beyond, so it's my career!
