[0:35] In creative arts, people work as graphic designers, musicians, actors, photographers, animators, fashion designers and digital content creators. [1:15] In sports, careers include the athlete, the coach, the referee, the physiotherapist, the sports nutritionist, the analyst and the event organiser. [1:55] Notice that every one of these jobs rests on three things: talent, daily practice and steady dedication over many years. [2:40] In Kenya a young animator might create content for a Nairobi advertising studio, while an athlete from the Rift Valley could train towards the Olympics.
