FEE for FEELINGS

Game for Career gives the highest scores to the areas of greatest need. And so, a higher score here points to how it would help you to learn more about...

understanding and managing feelings.

A lower score here suggests that you have this area more under control. It might be better for you, then, to look in other areas for ideas about how most to develop your planning.

If you have a higher score here read on.

Work is not just about qualifications and 'how-to-do' skills, it is also about 'why-bother' feelings - the hopes and fears, satisfactions and disappointments you have about work.

Making progress here means being able to say...

  • any good feelings you have, when you think about yourself at work;
  • any bad feelings you have about that;
  • what you most want to feel about being at work.

Everybody has something to say about this. And we all need to work out why such feelings are important to us. Also, what we have to say about feelings is different for different people. So, you can find your own way of saying it all.

For more help with this, look for at least one of the following...

  • a personal adviser who can 'be there' for people, who will listen, and take seriously what you say;
  • careers education which helps people to say what they feel, and try out what they would do in different situations;
  • recording and profiling to set down - in words and pictures - what is going on in your life and how you feel about it, and a chance to talk it over with somebody who can help.

 

 

You can keep this information - so that you can talk about it with your family, your careers adviser or a teacher, or somebody else who knows you well - and wants the best for you.
