I'm trying to decide my future career. What is a helpful resource in exploring careers & finding what's right?

We Answered:

Frankly, I think I am a helpful resource in this area, but I don't have web site.

Think about the things you like to do.
Keep in mind that some careers are not family friendly time wise.
Some hobbies you love may not pay well or if it is your job you may not have time for parts of it.
Do you like people or things or computers or science or teaching.
Find people in careers you think sound interesting to get a better understanding.
Or email me with what you like and I'll give you some ideas.

Jenny Said:

Finding a career to be passionate about?

We Answered:

Please read "A purpose driven life" by Rick Warren. This book has helped me to recognize things about me, my character, and unique gifts I have that I have taken for granted (not noticed they are unique)

One of the excercises is to interview those who know you best, and those who you are simply aquainted with. Ask them, honestly, good or bad; what are your strongest traits. Try not to be offended at some responses, because things that have negative connotations are translateable. ie: anal retentive/perfectionist = detail orientated!

Then rank them according to how many people noticed this trait. ie: 8 people said that I am patient/tenatious/wait a long time for outcome. 8 people also said that I am a good listener, listening with intent and care. 7 people said that I like to learn new things, and do a lot of independant study. 5 People said that I am a leader/not easily led/not to be pursuaded. (one said I was 'stubborn'!)

These traits can then be translated into a career or job that not only I can train for, but match WHO I was made to be.

I hope that helps.
