Working on it!

Chances are you didn't have just one pair of jeans your whole life or even one best friend. And chances are you won't have just one job. You'll find your passion as you walk through life. It just might be a job. Then again, it just might not.

Find your passion–and your own path

Deciding today what you want to do with the rest of your life is a major decision. Or is it? The reality is there's no rush. And there are many paths. There can be enormous pressure to decide but the truth is, there is no panic. (Pressure, yes. Panic, no.) You can take time to turn your passion on, find a job, volunteer overseas, or go to college or university.

What can I do?

DREAM! AND GET REAL. It can be done. Match your potential with your dreams; your abilities with your opportunities. If you can write you might want to think about a career in public relations. Like math? How about working in computer sciences? If you want to see the world, you might enjoy a career in international development or in e-commerce.

Two places to begin thinking about your career are CareerOptions and the Youth Secretariat's Career Development pages.
