Hmm. . . .
An occupation requiring special training- not necessarily
A person’s progress or general course of action through life, or through a phase of life- this one I like because between the lines it implies there can be more than on career for a person depending on the phase of life.
Success in a profession- I’m working on this one
A course, esp a swift one- this on is only true is a) you know what you want and b) you know the right people
Archaic, a charge at full speed- again, only if you know what you want or know the right person
To run or move rapidly along- slow and steady wins the race
Having or following a career; professional- still working on this one too
