How to have a great career : find your passion, achieve your goals, love what you do.

Also published under the title "How to have a great career: find your passion, achieve your goals, love what you do".

Over the past three decades, professor Larry Smith has become something of a "career whisperer" for his students at the University of Waterloo. Many talented college and university students graduate with little or no real sense of what their next step will be, yet they are determined not to settle for so-so careers; they are looking for great careers. Only a few fortunate souls are born knowing exactly what they want to pursue in life. The rest of us have to stop making excuses and start asking ourselves tough questions about achieving our goals. A guide for people trying to find their true direction. The author's TEDx talk on this subject has been viewed by millions. For college graduates wondering where they fit into the world, or for mid-career men and women who find themselves heading down the wrong path. It won't necessarily be easy, but if you follow Smith's guidance, your career dreams can indeed come true.
