Brown girl Brown boy What Could You Be? (Paperback) (ISBN-13: 9780578926292)

How old were you the first time someone asked, "What do you want to be when you grow up?" A few lucky people understood their careers early on. Many of us, however, fell into a career by accident. It may have made us a living, but did it fulfill us or give us the life we desired? The jobs we stumbled on may have been due to the lack of understanding of all the opportunities that existed or access to those careers. Furthermore, we may have heard about the professions but did not know much about it to make a better choice.

There must be a better method than trial and error that harmonizes passion and the life they want when they grow up. What you set your mind to is powerful!

If you are a parent, grandparent, loving aunt or uncle, or family friend of children, it is not too early to introduce them to various professions - especially those professions that are minimally occupied by diverse populations. Sometimes children want to be what they observe. Why not have them observe many different professions, learn more about them, and visualize themselves in those professions - so that they are better equipped to identify where their interest lies. If you are the parent, grandparent, or loving aunt or uncle of a child, what better gift than to give the aspiring leaders in your life the information to open their minds to vast opportunities and the impact that they have on the world.
