Chris Webber: Achieving Your Career Dreams
September 16, 2010
Chris Webber founder, The Chris Webber Foundation [homepage]

Basketball Legend Chris Webber talks with freshman students at Atlanta's Grady High School on how to go through a process of achieving career goals.

He tells kids that the thing that's your hobby today, might be your talent.
Find something that you love to do, find people that you love to work with who will encourage you, don't listen to the "haters" when they say you can't do it, write a list of all the negative things and the reasons that you shouldn't make it, and then go get what you are looking for.
