Greatness does not start with a Nobel Prize;
nor does it begin with an Olympic medal.
The finest masterpiece does not make an artist great;
nor does the applause after the best performance.
Your victory lap begins much before you win the race;
the world will notice you much before you become the change.
If you seek greatness,
wait not for the future.
Start now, because greatness begins
much before you actually become great.
Good Morning Career (Vol. 1) is for families having teenagers who’ve begun to think about their careers. The purpose of this book is to help these youngsters in developing a focussed and conscious approach towards career building. The format of the book is unique in the sense that it engages the youngsters into a conversation and enables them to express their opinion, just like one would do in a personal diary.
The contents of this book are derived from the several success and failure stories of real-life people, with whom the author has interacted over the past twenty years. The lessons learnt have been divided into easy-to-understand chapters, which in turn are equipped with exercises that reinforce the point being communicated.
The contents of the book can create a robust foundation for our youth, one that will play an important role not only in their careers but also in their lives.
An important note : While self-motivated boys and girls would be able to make the best of this book on their own, others will need encouragement and guidance from parents or guardians to help them extract the maximum benefit. Thus, it is recommended that this book be read by the family, together.
The book is an ideal gift for youngsters standing at the crossroads of career-related decisions.
