 A goal is anything- an object or situation-that we
think we need or want. It may be something we
want to do, what we want to be, or what we want
to have.
 A need is what we do not have or do not have
enough of. The well-known social
psychologist.Abraham H. Maslow classified human
needs and arranged them in hierarchical order from
lower to higher needs. His theory of sequential
development of needs states that:
 Lower-level needs develop first in the life of a
person.
 Once lower-level needs are satisfied or are on the
way to satisfaction, they assume less importance in
motivation because the higher-level needs become
dominant in motivating behavior.
 A value is something we have and which we prize or treasure. We
make choices to protect, defend, or enhance it. A value is shown
in the choice we freely make. We are happy with the choice. If we
value working with others, we will always choose situations at
work in which we interact with others rather than working alone.
 Different kinds of values:
 Personal values
 Family values
 Spiritual values
 Work values
 Career values
 Social and humanitarian values
 Cultural values
 There will be many obstacles that the adolescent will face
when choosing and planning a career path. The bigger the
problems adolescents think they have, the stronger they will
become after overcoming these problems.jumping the
hurdles that are within will take time, but practicing the
virtues will strengthen adolescents for the hurdles they will
have to jump over. There are many different external
obtacles that adolescents will face in the path that they
choose to take. Many of these problems may seem like they
are beyond the adolescents control. It is important however,
to remind them that in every situation that occurs, what
matters most is how they deal with it. To jump the hurdles
from outside takes a lot of strength in decision making.
