Spiritual Gift

Spiritual Gift - Gift given by God for us to use to glorify God and praise God

Today, we took a test about our spiritual gifts. We read about one thing and rated ourselves about each sentence. Then after we answered all of the 112 questions, we added up the numbers for each column and we took the top three numbers. And mine was D for discernment, I for service and a tie between J for knowledge and P for wisdom.

SDS and Learning Style - Day 5

Today, took a test called SDS (self-directed search) that took our interests and talents to help us choose jobs and the result gave us 3 letter codes. My code was I, A, S which I later learned that it stood for Investigative, Artistic and Social. Then, after I got my code, I went to another booklet and searched for the list of careers that had the same codes. But when I looked at them, I didn't find any of the jobs interesting, so I mixed up the letters and there were only one or two that interested me. I don't think that this helped me a whole lot about what careers I want. We also looked at the results of our learning style, and I learned that I was a visual learner.

Personality Traits - Day 4

Today, we took a personality trait test that asks us about our personality and during the test, I realized things about myself that I hadn't known or forgotten about myself. Then, when we finished the test, we got a specific code depending on our results and that code was to help us choose a career depending on our personality. Until now, I thought that our personalities had nothing to do with choosing our careers but after I took this test, I learned that our personalities are a huge part.

Learning Style - Day 3

Today, we put together a list that listed all our priorities of what we want from our jobs and we went to a website to discover the conditions that we learn best in. I learned when and how I study best and how to deal with the things that distract me from concentrating such as sound. I learned that I don't match with careers that involve a noisy background and an active background. I don't have any career choices that pops up in my mind up until now.

Day 2 - Talent

I think that talent is an ability to do things that is different for each person whether they realize it or not

My talents:

- Listen to others

- Learning quickly

- Self-controlled

- Able to control my feelings

- Not hold grudges on people

Day 1 Mrs. Gunther

How do you plan on choosing a career?

I plan on choosing my career based on the things that I like and want to do, because I heard from many people and I've read a lot of books that tells to choose careers based on the things that you like and want to do because if you don't you won't enjoy your career and you won't be able to enjoy your life. Also, if you do something you like to do, you'll work hard and if you work hard, other things will come to you automatically.

Does your gender make a difference?

I don't think gender make a difference because anyone should be able to choose from what they want to do.

Who will help you choose a career?

My parents, teachers, friends, myself (my interests, etc.), and other sources

Can the Bible offer any help?

I think the Bible can offer help because there are a lot of helpful information about how I should live my life and what choices I should make and what not to do.
