Plus, how to think about your career in stages.

Aneesh Raman was working as a speechwriter for President Barack Obama from 2011 to 2013 and remembers one key piece of career advice the president would often share:"Worry about what you want to do, not who you want to be."

Rather than thinking about your dream title, Raman recommends thinking about the impact you want to make through your work and the skills you'll need to get there. Then, evaluate whether certain jobs or employers will help you acquire those skills to reach your goals.Raman, who's now a vice president and workforce expert at LinkedIn, says the advice is especially crucial to young professionals today who may one day end up in roles that don't yet exist.

Finally, at age 45 and beyond, think about what kind of impact you want to make on your organization and on the world.
