Abstract

For several months I floundered -- as a life insurance salesman, a pizza delivery guy, and a tutor. Then I found a book which changed my life -What Color Is Your Parachute (incidentally, the best-selling career book of all time). The book essentially says: Figure out what you're passionate about, and then go find an industry, organization and job through which you can pursue your passions. I was passionate about marketing, and media, and children, and I loved the Disney brand. So I found Radio Disney, called them up and asked to meet with them, and even though there was no job posted, I got a job there. A year later I was the top salesperson in the country, and while I have changed jobs and careers several times, I've always pursued things I'm super passionate about. If you don't have a job yet, and take away just one thing from me today: Get the book.

If you go into the bookstore and find the section on jobs, careers, or networking the reason that section even exists is because of Dick Bolles.G. L. Hoffman, JobDig

This book brought me back to life, caused me to rethink everything about myself and revived my passion for me to be my best self. Simi KailaCitation
