Choosing a career is a big deal. You’ll spend a significant amount of your life at work and so in order to enjoy your job, remain motivated and fulfil your potential, you need to make your career choices wisely.

You first need to know yourself. This means taking stock of your skills and assessing your interests and values.

  • What am I good at?
  • What are my interests, motivations and values?
  • What did I most enjoy at university?
  • What kind of lifestyle do I want?
  • What do I want from my career?
  • What is important to me?

Self-awareness is important because when we have a better understanding of ourselves, we are able to experience ourselves as unique and separate individuals. We are then empowered to make changes and to build on our areas of strength as well as identify areas where we would like to make improvements. Self-awareness is often the first step to goal setting. Self-awareness is being conscious of what you’re good at while acknowledging what you still have yet to learn.
