WHAT'S BEEN THE ROLE OF SERENDIPITY IN YOUR CAREER PATH? I'm knee-deep in trying to map out new segments of my own career path and, because of that, I was recently asked to write about personal career planning.

"Too much planning can limit your options," wrote the responder. Happy accidents can't be planned and that's the point.
