What ever I do I’m gonna ROCK!
It’s important that whatever career you choose, you do your very best
and be the best you can be.
Steve Jobs founder of Apple Inc spoke to students with
this message.
“Your work is going to fill a large part of your life, and
the only way to be truly satisfied is to do what you
believe is great work. And the only way to do great work
is to love what you do.
“Your time is limited, so don’t waste it living someone else’s life. Don’t be
trapped by dogma —which is living with the results of other people’s
thinking. Don’t let the noise of others’ opinions drown out your own inner
voice”.

How we discover your style
MyCareerMatch is a personality type survey based on understanding
human behaviour.
Although we are all different we can predict how people behave by asking
them questions about how they like to do things, and analysing their
answers.
People are born with a specific personality style. There are no styles that are
better or worse; just different.
Each style has its own unique strengths and potential weaknesses. What’s
important when choosing a career is to choose one that uses your strengths,
and the things you’re good at; not the things you’re not good at.
Choosing a career that matches who you are is one of the most important
discoveries you can make about yourself that will change your life forever!

Harry Potter – four school houses
Most high schools have four houses and so does Hogwarts School of Witchcraft.
When students arrive they have the ‘sorting hat’ placed on their heads. The hat
reads their personalities and assigns a house to each student.
Which house is – Driver, Promoter, Supporter or Analyser ?

Slythern are Drivers
"Here you are in Slytherin where you'll make your real friends, Those cunning
folk use any means to achieve their ends.“

Ravenclaw are Analysers

learning will always find their kind."

Each Gospel conveys their personality
Each of the four Gospels represents a different personality style and each describes their account
of the life of Jesus differently with a key message that matches their style.
The value of having all four styles portray these events is to create a ‘complete’ picture of who
Jesus was.
Driver
Mark a Driver
Mark uses direct language and tells it as it happened without flowery language. His
prominent ideas are “power & service”. His message, “obedience to Christ”.
Promoter
John a Promoter
John is more spiritual, speaks of divine relationships and of a higher place.
John’s prominent ideas are “glory & life”. His message, “affection for Christ”.
Supporter
Luke a Supporter
Luke is more humble and recounts events in detail, focusing on Jesus the man. His
prominent ideas are “grace & salvation”. His message, “faith in Christ”.
Analyser
Matthew an Analyser
Matthew goes into detail, supported by quotations and genealogy.
Matthew’s prominent ideas are “law & promise”. His message, “knowledge of
Christ”.
