Personal Development
 INTRODUCTION:
A career is defined as the combination and sequence of roles played by a person during
the course of a lifetime (Super, 1980). Your career basically dictates a lot of things in your life
– it can determine the kind of lifestyle that you will be leading, the quality of relationships that
you have with people around you like your family and friends, the kind of balance you will be
able to keep with your life and your responsibilities.

WHAT INFLUENCES YOUR CAREER?

1. SKILLS AND ABILITIES

It is important that you take stock of the skills,

knowledge and abilities that you currently possess and those
that you still need to develop as these greatly impacts that kind
of career that could be a good match for you.

2. LIFE ROLES
Being a worker is just one of your life
roles, in addition to others such as, student, 3. INTEREST AND PERSONALITY TYPE
parent, and child. The fact that we each play
multiple roles in our lives, how we think about Certain careers require certain
ourselves in these roles, may influence how personality traits and must also fit our
we look at careers in general and how we interests.
make choices for ourselves

4. PREVIOUS EXPERIENCES

Having positive experiences and role

models working in specific careers may
influence the set of careers we consider as
options for ourselves. We are likely to
consider continuing a particular task if we
have had a positive experience doing it. In
this way, we focus on areas in which we
have had proven success and achieved
positive self-esteem.
5. CULTURE AND VALUES
Our culture often shapes our values
and expectations as they relate to many parts
of our lives, including jobs and careers. We
can't attribute the predominant
characteristics of a culture to any one of its
individuals, but having an awareness of the
values and expectations of our culture may
help us understand how we make our career
choices.

6. GENDER
Both men and women have experienced career-related
stereotypes. How we view ourselves as individuals may influence
both the opportunities and barriers we perceive as we make career
decisions. Studies of gender and career development are ongoing as roles
of men and women in the workforce, and in higher education, evolve.

 7. SOCIAL AND ECONOMIC CONDITIONS
Events that take place in our lives may affect the choices available to us and even dictate
our choices to a certain degree. Changes in the economy and resulting job market may also
affect how our careers develop.

8. CHILDHOOD FANTASIES

What do you want to be when you grow-up? You may

remember this question from your childhood, and it may have helped
shape how you thought about careers then, as well as later in life.

DIFFERENT CAREER AREAS

Psychologist John Holland classified jobs/careers/work environments into six: Realistic,

Investigative, Artistic, Social, Enterprising and Conventional. There are no pure classifications,
though. A person's job function may combine ESA (Enterprising, Social and Artistic) or ISC
(Investigative, Social and Conventional) or any two or three other possible combinations.

the same six types: Realistic, Investigative, Artistic, Social,

interest types. A person may also be ESA (Enterprising-

or any two or three possible combinations.

INSIGHTS INTO ONE’S PERSONAL DEVELOPMENT

WHAT’S YOUR LIFE MISSION?
It’s not an easy question to answer, but an important one. You can talk about your aspirations and
goals all day, but when you write them down, they become, well, more real. It’s a starting point to
living the life you want. When you write a personal mission statement, you’re clarifying what you
want to accomplish and how, and committing to it. Businesses and nonprofit organizations develop
mission statements for the same reason.

 WHAT IS A PERSONAL LIFE MISSION STATEMENT?
Most students, and adults, don’t realize the importance of writing their personal mission
statements. It’s more than just your goals. Your mission statement will help you sort out your
priorities and how you want to live your life. It may include short-term and long-term goals, or
life-long aspirations. It becomes a guide and provides direction, which comes from you, not
someone else. There’s no right or wrong way to approach your personal mission statement, or what
it should include. Everyone’s is going to be different. What’s important is to write down.

TOPICS THAT YOUR PERSONAL STATEMENT MAY INCLUDE:

1. EDUCATION
2. CAREER
3. HOW YOU WANT TO LIVE YOUR LIFE
4. COMMUNITY SERVICE
5. ATTRIBUTES
6. FAITH AND SPIRITUALITY
7. SPORTS
8. FAMILY AND PERSONAL RELATIONSHIPS
