How can you avoid career regret? What can people at the top of their fields teach you about loving what they do? Hurley is your guide.
If you believe life is a use-it-or-lose-it situation, should you try to spend it doing something you love? Venture capitalist Bill Gurley has set out to teach people his ideas for how to find your dream job & avoid a career you'll hate.
For lots of young people, career paths feel like conveyor belts-the next test, the next application, the next college-without a pause to ask what they really want to do with their lives. After Hurley went to college, he landed a job at a famous tech company. A dream job, right? But he was bored, so he took a chance & leapt into the unknown, eventually finding his place in the world of venture capital.
Such a result is rare. He says nearly six in ten people would do things differently if they could start over. So how can you avoid career regret? What can people at the top of their fields teach you about loving what they do? Hurley has assembled six principles for guiding young people in making career decisions, & he has explained it all in his new book Runnin' Down a Dream.
