Insights into One’s Personal Development

Jeff, a grade 12 STEM student from a suburban senior high school was not certain of
what course to take in college. What he only knew was he wanted to become a doctor in medicine
so that he can help the country in its battle against COVID-19. However, he does not know what
preparatory course he will take in college.

His career coach advised him to assess and evaluate first what he really wants to be if he is
not in the medical profession. Second, he was asked to know what are his interests and the things
he loves to do because this would lead him to choose a more rewarding career.

In addition, Jeff was asked about his financial goals. Going into a medical profession allows him to
get back his investments in education and gives him the life he wants to live. Most importantly, it
provides him opportunity to do medical services to the needy or simply because he takes pride in
wearing white robes worn by the doctors.

Subsequently, the coach asked him to get information through an interview with a doctor about
the job which will help cement his career choice. At the same time, he will get a real-life
experience through a personal visit to hospitals, observe the doctor’s routines of checking
patients, administration and management of medicine as well as reviving dying patients and
making postmortem reports.
