One Career


We all have roles.

we all have dreams and believe that we can achieve.

So we say when we're young, "I will get that dream job!"

We all start out with a small job, 

then we flourish like a flower to water.

Gaining the experience we need to go out in this world and work.

I hear all the time parents tell their kids,

"Go to school, get an education, get a job."

What I hear is,

"Go to school, get an education, start your own business."

One job can change my life yes it can,

but for a period of time.

One career,

one career can change my life forever.

An job is to make you stable for a short amount of time.

But an career, can change my life for an eternity.
