If young adults could be guided in the right direction for a Life journey of meaning and Purpose we would be grooming the leaders of tomorrow for a better world.
Through quizzes and questionnaires which have been vetted by college students, Whelan guides the reader through big picture questions like, What are my talents--and how can I use those to help others and create meaning? How have my Life experiences shaped who I am and what I can give? What do I value--and how can I be happy while being true to those values? Although there are endless books on Finding a job, this is the first book that presents research-based and tested material to help young people answer the question, What am I going to do with my life? A great gift for a graduate or a Guide for yourself, The Big Picture provides the resources needed to find--and live--a purposeful life..
It guides young people to take a step back and look at the big picture of who they are, what they want, and why they\'re here.
Whelan\'s The Big Picture offers a Guide to discover one\'s talents, dreams, and desires that can then lead a person to not only a fulfilling career, but a fulfilling life.

Enter The Big Picture .
Young people want more than just another job--they want a life, and a meaningful one at that.
While other books might give advice on writing resumes or preparing for interviews, they only go so far.
Maybe they\'re facing a mountain of debt, but don\'t want to get locked into a job they hate.
Maybe they\'re still in the process of choosing a major, and given the range--from Biochemistry to Adventure Education--are lost in the options.
Maybe they have the degree they wanted, but don\'t know where to start in their job search. --Deepak Chopra, MD, FACP, founder of the Chopra Center for Wellbeing What am I going to do for the rest of my life? For young people at a turning point--whether it\'s facing the end of high school, college, graduate school, or just a dead-end job--this is a familiar question.
This book is the perfect guide.
