Gifts are your strengths, natural abilities, and personality traits. It's hard to figure out what you're good at. That's why it's important to gain insights from a few wise and trusted adults in your life. This will give you a well-rounded picture of your gifts and help point you towards a career path where you can go far.
Your passions are your interests and values. To identify your passions, we use a set of self-reflective questions and activities that will help you uncover your interests and what is ultimately important to you. This way, you can find work that you care about.
It's important to invite people to join you on this journey. In this step, you build a personal board of advisors that will not only help you identify your gifts but also offer advice as you explore college majors and career paths.
You were given your gifts and passions for more than a paycheck. Before jumping right to career research, you create a purpose statement that articulates how you want to use your gifts and passions to make an impact.
This is where you take your newfound insights about your gifts, and passions and turn them into action. After identifying a few potential career paths, you create SMART goals and serve in a career field that interests you. This could mean a summer job, part-time work, volunteering, an internship, or a service opportunity. This relational and action-oriented approach is what leads to clarity about your career path.
