阅读下列短文，根据短文中的信息完成文后表格。（每空一词)

Sometimes, I’m asked: What’s the secret to success? For me, it’s love and focusing on making myself proud.

Here are five keys that are necessary for a successful career in IT.

Create a plan

Plan how you can use your love to gain exposure (接触) and experience.

I often recommend anyone starting out in IT begin on the help desk. It gives you a quick education on the latest technology.

Write down goals and important events for the coming years to mark your progress.

Remember that the technology you come across in your careers (事业) will change all the time.

Look for a mentor (导师)

It can be difficult to be faced with life decisions you may not be prepared for. It’s very important to your success to find a good mentor --- one who’ll give you sound guidance, and with the experience help you avoid pitfalls (意想不到的困难) and career dead-ends.

A mentor allows you to ask practically any question. More importantly, she can help you face many of the unique challenges women face in the traditionally male-dominated field of IT.

Make yourself proud

Others’ recognition is always of importance. However, you also need an internal compass that keeps you focused on who you want to be, personally and professionally.

Build your network

Surround yourself with those who’ll lift you up, support you, and be honest with you. You’ll be able to face difficulties and challenges that feel too large and difficult to overcome on your own.

In addition, no matter how hard you work, unless you’re aware of a chance, you’re not going to get a shot at it. Your network will open up chances for you and your career, both now and in the years to come.

Investing(投资) in people is never a waste of time or effort. It always comes back to you.

And then, give back

Young people need the help of a network as they grow in their careers. So now it’s your turn.

Love is contagious (有感染力的)

Don’t doubt to follow your love. With careful planning, plus support from mentors and contacts, you’ll find yourself on your way to an extraordinary successful IT career.
