Why do you need to know yourself in order to choose a career?
I think it's important to know yourself when you choose a career for many reasons.
1. You need to know what you're good at
2. You need to know what your interests are.
4. Do you want a career that has room for advancement?
5. How much money do you want to make?
6. Do you like spending time indoors or outdoors? Or both?
7. Are you a people person?
8. How much time are you willing to invest into your education?
9. Are you willing to stand up for hours on end?
10. Are you willing to sit down for hours on end?
These are some very important things you should know about yourself before you choose a career. Because, if you choose where you have to sit down for 12 hours straight, and you're the type of person that has to take a break all the time, you probably should not get a sitting down job. If you choose a career where you have to talk on the phone with people all day and you're not a people person, you're going to make your day and the person on the phones day terrible. And nobody wants that. You need to know who you are and what you want to do because if you don't, it could affect you and others around you.

My top 5 values are           1. Variety and/or change

2. Helping society

3. Fun

4. Adventure

5. Practicality
Those things are important to me when doing a job. I don't want to be sitting at a desk all day doing the same thing. That gets boring after awhile. I also want to be able to help people. That's important to me. I want to have a job that is going to have a good outcome. I want it to mean something when I do it. I don't want my job to be boring either. I want it to be something I enjoy, because if you have a job that you are not going to have a good time with, you will be miserable. And I don't want that. Adventure. I wouldn't mind a job that would have me get up and get out and do something. I like a new adventure and if I was able to have one everyday, that would be cool. And practically.

If money was no object, I would travel the world. I would go on a cruise to a bunch of little islands. I would move out of the U.S. and go somewhere nice to live. I would go to a fancy college so I could become an amazing surgeon or amazing at something in the medical field. I would want to build a huge house and have lots of land. Then on that land, I would build a farm and get a bunch of horses. I would help people in need, and teach them things. Give my kids everything they need and send them to a any college they want to go to so they can become amazing at whatever they want to do. I would get a camera and travel to really pretty places and take pictures. Also, I would help every animal and adopt them all.(not very realistic. But a girl can dream)  And learn a bunch of languages. There are probably a bunch of other things I would do too but I can’t think of anything else.
This was one of my favorite activities that we did. I never actually had the chance to think about this, and it was really cool.

I don’t think there are any patterns in my family career tree. Everyone in my family has a different job because we all have different interests.
Everyone in my family has stuck with the same career that I know of. Except my mom. She has had a few different ones. Which is okay. Most people will change their career more than once in their life and that's normal. My family, they don't really tell me anything about their careers because most of them live out of state and we don't have time to talk a lot. I'm not exactly sure if I would be interested in doing anything my family does for a career. I am a lot different than my family. Although, my grandmother did something in medical and that is the field that I want to go in to. So that is one thing I would be interested in doing out of all the careers my family has gone into. I really think this is cool because I have never put my two sides of the family together and looked at what their jobs were. This gave me the chance to do that and It was fun. Not one person in my family has done the same exact career as someone else in my family and I think that is really cool too. Some jobs that a few people thought would be good for me based on my family tree, are 1. Teacher

2. A job that works with kids

3. Construction

4. Engineer in the army

5. Secretary

A few things surprised me actually. When I pictured in my head where I was going to live, I pictured something different than I would’ve thought I would be living in the future. And I had kids in the fantasy too, which I never actually thought of.  Some of the things in my day were harder to picture in my head because some things weren't as clear.  When I pictured about my job, I saw myself getting up everyday in the morning walking into a hospital of some sort. So maybe I was a doctor? I’m not sure. It kind of surprised me though because that’s not the career I was going for. But I wouldn’t mind it at all. But definitely something medical is important for me to have in my future. I know that I want to do something in the medical field, I’m just not sure what specifically yet.   I think this activity actually helped some people, because some people may have seen some things in their fantasy that they never thought of before.

For the leadership style true colors activity we did, I tied with green and gold. Blue coming in second and then orange. Greens are people that are self sufficient, intellectual, careful, systematic, logical, and theoretical. Golds are people that are obedient, faithful, dependable, efficient, proper, stable, organized, punctual and helpful. Green and gold seem to have some opposites. But that describes me. I am an inbetween of green and gold. I'm a little bit of each thing that I just listed above. That's probably why I tied for them. The other colors I can relate to a little, but not as much as these ones. I think these were the best ones for me.

My MI is Bodily-Kinesthetic. Coming in with a close second is musical. And in third is interpersonal. Bodily Kinesthetic is coordinating your body with your mind. Musical is discerning sounds, their pitch, tone, rhythm and timbre. Interpersonal is sensing people's motives and feelings. I think those all apply to me pretty well. Especially My first one and my third. My MI results in order from highest to lowest are:

Bodily-Kinesthetic

Musical

Interpersonal

Naturalist

Spatial

Intrapersonal

Logical-Mathematical

Existential

Linguistic

Some of my transferable skills are providing appropriate feedback. You can take that skill from one job to another because in most jobs, you'll always need to give someone feedback on what they are doing. Good or bad. But if someone does something bad, you can't just yell at them and tell them they're terrible at their job, you need to tell them what they did wrong and how to fix it, that is appropriate feedback.
Setting priorities is another transferable skill I am good at. You will need that for every job you have no matter what it is. From working at McDonalds, to being the CEO of your own company. You will always need to know what your priorities are. You need to figure out what the most important thing is and do that first. You need to do your work rather than go out with your friends. Another one is managing conflicts. I hate conflicts but I am good at managing them. You will also need this skill in every job you have. If you are working in a hospital and a huge trauma comes in, you're going to need to be good at handling that and being under pressure because if you just stand there, you are not doing anyone any good. Providing support and care is a big one too. You're going to need to support your co workers wherever you are or what you're doing. And care for them. And they're going to have to do the same for you.

Some of my accomplishments so far in my life wouldn't necessarily be accomplishments to everyone, but they are for me and I am proud of myself for them. When I got to highschool, I worked really hard to get the grades I wanted. By the end of freshman year, I had honors all 4 quarters. I was so happy that I had accomplished that goal. In 8th grade, I got over my fear of public speaking. The fear was so bad, that when I would get up in front of the class to speak, I would noticeably start to shake and sweat. It was very embarrassing. But one day in english class, we had this public speaking project that was a HUGE part of our grade. I had to do it, and I had to do it well. So, I wrote my paper, and I felt confident in it. I got up there and I read my paper very well making eye contact with people. I was nervous, but it didn't show. I was very proud of myself for accomplishing that. Another accomplishment for me was joining key club. I was scared to join my freshman year because I didn't know anyone who was doing it. But, it is a lot of fun and you get to help people, which I love. And I met some new friends in that club. I also Went on an 11 mile hike. I know that may not sound like much, but it was for me. I hate hiking. I don't know why. I would just much rather be home reading a book or something. But I did it and I am proud of myself. I have some other accopplishments but those are the major ones in my life so far.

My learning style is Tactile Kinesthetic. We are the doers. The hands on people. I learn best when I am doing hands on activities. I can't learn as well when I'm listening to someone talk or when I am reading something. I need to be up and actually doing the thing. I prefer to stand up and be moving around then sitting down. We use our hands a lot when we are talking to someone or trying to explain to someone how to do something. A lot of the time, tactile kinesthetic learners study more effectively when they are lying on the floor, their bed, fidgeting with something, taping their fingers, or touching objects. Some possible careers for a kinesthetic learner would be a dancer, actor, firefighter, athlete, personal trainer, martial artists, or a yoga teacher.

My Personality Type is ISTJ. ISTJ stands for introverted, sensing, thinking, and judging. ISTJs are called "The Inspectors." Some people would think that ISTJs are a little standoffish and cold. We're really not standoffish and cold. We just don't like to talk about gushy feelings and express our emotions. We get upset when people don't keep their promises or commitments and when people are not faithful or dependable. But, we keep those feelings to ourself. Some good careers for ISTJs would be engineering, law, the military, dentist, management, or accounting.
