Gain Self-Awareness
Self-Awareness or Self-Discovery is the initial step in the career decision-making process. If you are not informed about who you are, then how can you expect to make informed decisions based upon your characteristics and attributes?

What is/are my:
- Interests (e.g. activities people enjoy)

prestige, flexible hours) - Skills (e.g. activities people perform well – multi-task, analyze, supervise, counsel)
