Choosing a career isn’t just about picking a job—it’s about finding work that fits who you are. That’s why understanding your values (what’s most important to you) and motives (what drives you) is a game-changer in career exploration.

Start by asking yourself: What do I believe in? What kind of impact do I want to make? What excites me about work? These questions help you reflect on what truly matters to you.

But reflection is just the first step. Next, take action! Research careers that align with your values, seek out internships, volunteer, or job shadow professionals in fields that interest you.
