Career Development Activity• Now compare to an actual quarter.
– What did you recall? – What did you forget?
• We’ve been handling quarters almost every day of our lives. We are very familiar with them. Yet, we may have missed details because we take them for granted and don’t pay close attention to them on a daily basis.

Career Development Activity• We may also take ourselves for granted. • When caught up in our daily routines, we may
no longer recognize our positive characteristics, our strengths, our joys, our passions, our gifts, etc.
• Please take a moment to draw or jot down your unique qualities, characteristics, strengths, interests, skills, values, etc. that you are proud of and are important to you.
