This book tries to answer the question: "So what do I do with my life after college?"
A lot of new College graduates wrestle with this question and too often, they fall to the trap of "too-many-options-and-interests-yet-too-little-time." This could easily spiral down to a full-blown quarterlife crisis.
This book seeks to provide guidance as a starting point for young people who are seeking their calling and trying to decide what they really want to do with their lives.
