"If you have anything really valuable to contribute to the world it will come through the expression of your own personality, that single spark of divinity that sets you off and makes you different from every other living creature."
- Bruce Barton

Discovering who you are is the most important step in beginning to plan for your future. It allows you to better understand what makes you unique, as well as what your interests and talents are. People that do not take the time to think about who they are when making career choices are at risk of not fulfilling their full potential. Once you know what makes you tick, then you can make choices that fit with your personality. By doing this you are more likely to be happy with the results of the choices that you make.

Also, it is important to remember that learning about yourself is an on going process. Our opinions and expectations change as we grow as individuals. Everything that we experience and learn shapes and changes who we are. For this reason you should continually re-evaluate who you are and what your goals are.
