People think about the matter of "reinventing" themselves as some kind of epic event – that it takes great planning, preparation and courage to become something new. But, no matter where you are, and no matter what you're doing now, if you look back over your life you will see that you have reinvented yourself multiple times along the way in order to get where you are right now. In fact, you reinvent yourself every day, every time you do something new. And most of the time you probably don't even realize consciously that you're doing it.

How many times have you been given an assignment from your boss to take on a project you've never done before? Probably often, and yet each time you will have to figure it out for the first time. That means reinventing yourself into that capability.
