His older sister told him to apply for an entry-level corporate position. His father said, \"It doesn't matter what you do, just make sure it's something you're passionate about.\" Taking his father's advice to heart, Sean created the One-Week Job Project and launched himself on an epic journey to find his passion. His goal: to work fifty-two jobs in fifty-two weeks. \u003cp\u003e\u003c\/p\u003eAfter the launch of his website, oneweekjob.com, the offers began pouring in. Sean's first gig was--literally--jumping off a bridge, as a bungee operator in British Columbia. From there he traveled across Canada and the United States, reinventing himself as a firefighter, an aquarium host, a radio DJ, a martial arts instructor, an NHL mascot, and a snowshoe guide. During the course of his seven-day stints, from a Florida stock-trading floor to a cattle ranch in the wilds of Wyoming to a real estate office in Beverly Hills, Sean found time to make new friends and even fall in love. Whether choosing a spring fashion line, brewing beer, or milking a cow, Sean continued to ask himself and others about what success really means and how we find happiness--all while having the adventure of his life. \u003cp\u003e\u003c\/p\u003eInventive and empowering, witty and wise, The One-Week Job Project\u003ci\u003e \u003c\/i\u003eis a book that will give you the courage to follow your passion.
