Assignment 3.1
2015Jul07
Consider your personal career trajectory. Using the definitions described in your
textbooks and in the PowerPoint, complete this worksheet by describing personal factors
that have influenced your career development and decision-making up to now.
Self-observation generalizations:
I view myself as being capable of accomplishing anything I set my mind to. When it
comes to counseling, I feel that I will be an effective source for people to get help. As far
as the type of counselor I would like to be, I feel that my military background will help
counsel members of the military as well as their families.
Worldview generalizations:
The majority of occupations require a person to be organized and dedicated. Counseling
is no different. We must be dedicated to our clients and obtaining further knowledge of
our field in order to help others.
Task approach skills (cognitive and performance abilities and emotional predispositions
for coping with the environment, interpreting it in relation to self-observation
generalizations, and making covert and overt predictions about future events):
As a counselor, it is important to have good work habits and values. Also, make sure
your client can handle decision making and figure out what their sense of personal
responsibility is.
Actions (e.g., applying for job, entering a training program, applying to college, changing
jobs, taking steps to make progress in career):
These factors play a huge role in your career. I feel that the most important factor would
be applying to college and continuing education just based on my Instrumental and
associative learning experiences. I do understand that not everyone feels this way so, as
a counselor, it is important to know your clients goals in order to help them succeed.
