Dear Texas Student,<br />
<br />
Y<br />
ou are probably tired of people asking, “What do you want to be when you grow<br />
up?” Some students know exactly what they want to do, but most haven't got a<br />
clue. The idea of choosing a career is intimidating, and it feels like it's far in the<br />
future. There's little time in the commotion of classes, activities, sports, work, and fun to<br />
think about what career you want to pursue after graduation from high school or college.<br />
It pays, though, to take the time to think about your future career. The truth is that<br />
you'll save a lot of time and money if you have a direction in life, as opposed to just<br />
