For Immediate Release 

Young Entrepreneur Aims to Engage and Empower Youth Across Canada With Innovative Motivational Address of 'Self-Awareness'



(Toronto, Canada - Thursday, April 15, 2010) The rate of young people dropping out of school in Canada has decreased over the last decade, according to the Canadian Council of Learning, but that does not guarantee that those who remain will be able to find their true calling, making their passions their life’s work.  U-ology 101 is a great balance to any curriculum, that promotes, and outlines the methods behind the discovery of one's strongest interests en route to realizing their goals and dreams. U-ology 101 is a motivational address by twenty-eight year old entrepreneur, speaker, and marketer Jesse Jones, who is the keynote speaker at today's Higher Level Learning's Youth Empowerment Conference, entitled 'Elevate 2010' at George Harvey C.I. in Toronto. 
About U-ology 101:
U-ology 101 is designed to awaken the passion and release the potential within generation next, helping them recognize their goals and prepare them for the future. While acknowledging the challenges they face, U-ology 101 provides tools and an action plan to overcome those road blocks as they move toward actualizing their dreams. A motivational address by twenty-eight year old entrepreneur, speaker and marketing consultant Jesse Jones, U-ology 101 is developed to inspire young people to become their best, and motivate them to uncover a future of being successful at doing what brings them most happiness.  Self-realization, is the foundation to uncovering one's passions, hence why the study of one's self is described in Jones’ address as 'U-ology', which refers to the 'study of you (u)'.
