Paul Graham has this neat thing for a talk to a bunch of high school kids.
I’m not saying I’ve read the whole thing, but this is a pretty good start:
I’ll start by telling you something you don’t have to know in high school: what you want to do with your life. People are always asking you this, so you think you’re supposed to have an answer. But adults ask this mainly as a conversation starter. They want to know what sort of person you are, and this question is just to get you talking. They ask it the way you might poke a hermit crab in a tide pool, to see what it does.
Check out the whole thing here.
