Career Tests
Ok, so Rob got me this book to help me find the career I’m best suited for… Other than my current one that is. I have always had this feeling that there is something out there I should be doing in addition to mothering, and haven’t had the time to find it, or maybe just not the courage; I’m not sure which. It’s funny how you can be afraid to try something new, just because of the fear of failure. Anyway, we were discussing this recently and Rob got this book to help me figure out what my strengths are and where I should focus my energy. It took a while to complete the tests inside the book, but they are all pretty short, so I would just do a couple when I had time and eventually got through it. I was surprised at how accurately they seemed to get my personality, strengths and weaknesses. I would recommend the book for any of you that aren’t sure what to do with your life, or are curious about what it thinks you would like. So, now it’s time for you to guess what it came up with for me. Following are a list of occupations. Five of these are careers that were recommended for me, guess which five:
Make-up Artist, Editor, Criminologist, Clinical Psychologist, Florist, Chef, Film Reviewer, Cabinet Maker, Script Writer, English Language Teacher, Forensic Scientist.
I really don’t know you very well Amy, but what I do know is that you are very bright and can handle just about anything you try. I see that there are analytical choices and creative choices, but I have decided to go with the following.
Here are my 5 guesses . . .
In no particular order of preference.

Frankly I think you can succeed in whichever area you wanted to go into, but these all sounded intereating to me so here are my picks:
-Criminologist

-Film Reviewer
I guess: Editor, Criminologist, Clinical Psychologist, Script Writer, English Language Teacher, Forensic Scientist.

It was a little bit of checking off the ones I did not think were for you and picking the ones that I thought did fit you. It felt like I was taking a test. Did I pass?
Ummmmm…Chef?
