"Why do you need to know yourself in order to choose a career?"
I need to know myself in order to choose a career because in order to do a job well I must like the job. I know for a fact that I am not skilled in algebra, so I shouldn't choose a job in the math field because A) I wouldn't do it well and B) I would be miserable.
I know that I need a job with a flexible schedule and one where I can tune my creativity into helping others. That is vital to know about me because I'm very tricky to keep happy. If one thing is off I'll get agitated. That's why I think it would be best if I managed my own schedule.

My family tree is very scattered due to situations at home.
Some people may feel that their job family tree pertains to them greatly, but I, on the other hand, do not. I was adopted so I have twice the amount of jobs to look at. None of them connect with me but the artists.

My values are
1. Helping Others
2. Moral Fulfillment
3. Flexibility
4. Authenticity
5. Creativity
All of the cards shown in these categories are the different things that are important to me (I discarded cards that didn't apply).
This shows I need a job that stimulates my moral needs (Helping others). I need a job that bends to my time schedule. Such as the counselor I go to; However, I would like to add a more creative twist.

Nothing really surprised me that much while practicing the exercise we did.

My day was easier imagined while I was at home. I think that’s because I know my living situation now as it is, and I can guess what it will be like whereas I’ve never worked before so I wouldn't know

I hadn’t thought about my lunch break or my socialization with people really, but if I were I would guess that I am sitting outside somewhere, eating a light lunch by myself.

I can see myself living in an apartment somewhere in the city. Working mindless jobs until I can work up my motivation and effort into becoming what I really desire: A counselor.

I wake up from my sleep and I see a messy room, its small but homey. It has dirty and non-dirty clothes strewn about lazily. My room was plain and ordinary besides that

I ate my breakfast at the table with my girlfriend and mindlessly chit chatted

I went outside to see a plain looking apartment building with shrubbery around the front. The street was mildly active with people going to work, but most had already gone. My work day revolved around my own schedule, so there isn't a huge amount of stress to get to work on time.
Once I arrive by taxi or car, I look at my workplace and know it is standing because of my effort. It is a modern looking building.
I step inside my office and it had art on the wall from my patients. My desk is slightly messy, but not something ugly to look at. It is very homey and safe feeling, with an almost log-cabiny feel on the inside.

My true color is green.
This means that I am a deep thinker and that I need a job that challenges my intellect.

"Green expresses itself psychologically as human will in operation: as persistence and determination. Green is an expression of firmness and consistency. Its strength can lead to a resistance to change if it is not proven that the change will work or is warranted. Those with Green as a Primary Color value their intellect and capabilities above all else. Comfort in these areas creates a sense of personal security and self-esteem.

Green characteristics seek to increase the certainty of their own values through being assertive and requiring differences from others in intellectual areas. They are rarely settled in their countenance, since they depend upon information rather than feelings to create a sense of well-being. Green expresses the grounding of theory and data in its practical applications and creative constructs."

Verbal Communication, Teamwork, and Analytical are my top 3 transferable skills. This means I'm skilled in communicating my ideas, working with people, and analyzing situations around me. This is important because it shows in jobs I will work good in teams (Even if I don't like it). I would be a good mediator using my analyzing skills and verbal communications.

I would be a counselor. Not just an ordinary counselor, but one who becomes friends. I would want my patients to know without a doubt I wasn’t doing it for the money, but because I cared. I would have my office be above my cafe.

My cafe would sell coffee, tea, scones and all sorts of things. When my patients were done with their appointment they could go downstairs and enjoy a meal/snack.

I would do all of that because I care deeply for those around me, and as a born problem solver it comes easy to listen. I want something wholesome and quaint, some place where people go to be at home.

My multiple intelligence is Naturalist. That means I show favor to recognizing, loving, learning, and being around animals, plants, and other types of nature.
That means that while looking for a future job/career, I should find something involving animals and nature. Jobs like Marine Biology, Farming, Botany, and animal training would be ideal for me.
Although I am a naturalist, the other factors of my personality clash with that greatly. I find beauty and peace in the outdoors, but I cannot picture myself in any of these careers for Naturalists.

1.  Read 60 books over summer 2013
2. Learning how to do makeup well  2015
3. Lost 40-50 lbs 2015

These three things are all linked to my creative personality. Makeup allows me to design and create, whereas reading fueled my thirst for knowledge.
I lost all that weight by cooking healthy meals and using impulse control so I don't binge eat.

Kinesthetic. This means I learn best while taking part in hands on activities such as labs. This is important because in the future while I look for a job, I will probably not do best by reading a 6 page long introductory packet. I should pick a job where I learn on the go.

My personality type is INTP-T. That means
I ntroverted
I N tuitive
T hinking
P rospecting
- T urbulent
INTP's title is the Logician. We are introverted, logical, thinking, successful people. A lot of presidents, in fact, were INTPs. We are skilled in Math, Art, and anything that really uses our brains. Job hunting is difficult for INTPs, as we are difficult people to deal with, we are independent and stubborn.
I need a job that doesn't leave me bored sitting at a desk all day. I need something hands on, challenging, and quick paced.
