Achiever

Seek a position that lets you do what you do best every day. Inform people that you have a need to exceed, not just meet, minimum requirements.

Pay close attention to your body clock. Decide when your mind is most alert. Use this insight to your advantage when scheduling time to study.

Find a career in which you can work as hard as you want. Avoid work situations controlled by collective bargaining agreements that limit how much you can produce each day.

Choose challenging, effective classes taught by instructors who have reputations for helping students reach their educational goals.

Choose work environments that challenge you. Opt for situations where your success is measured each day.

Competition

Establish measurable and meaningful academic goals. Use these to force yourself to reach the highest levels of productivity, mastery, or quality.

Play competitive sports. Risk being a walk-on to win a spot on an athletic team.

Choose work environments that challenge you and in which your success can be quantified with scores, ratings, and rankings. Avoid situations lacking meaningful, objective measurement criteria.

Study your opponents — that is, your classmates. Identify each one’s strengths. Evaluate their study strategies. Continually compare your results to theirs.

Find a career that is both competitive and personally satisfying.

Command

Investigate careers that offer upward mobility. Understand that you are satisfied with a subordinate position for only a limited time.

Assume the leadership role in groups, especially when you have knowledge, skills, expertise, and experience others lack.

Assume a role that permits you to create and control your own and others’ work.

Opt to participate in activities where you must persuade people to embrace your ideas, plans, solutions, or philosophies.

Aim to be in a managerial or authoritarian role. Remember, you tend to be bossy. Avoid occupations where you are expected to blindly follow orders or be subservient.

Futuristic

Choose a career in which you can help others envision their future and define their goals to reach it.

Try to truly understand what you’re studying; don’t just memorize. Always relate what you’re studying to where you see yourself in the future.

Find an organization where you can help create the future, painting vivid pictures for those who work there, helping them see the role they will take in making this vision become reality.

Take risks to gain new insights, even if they are out of your comfort zone. Set academic goals to project yourself into a successful future.

Dream big. Write down your dreams, and continue to make progress toward your biggest dreams.

Learner

Select work where competency is valued and where you will have opportunities to keep developing your competencies.

Don’t restrict your learning experiences to the classroom. Engage in activities in which you can expand your knowledge about subject that interest you most.

Find work where study is a way of life.

Study in an environment that allows you to get into a “study mood.” This approach allows you to get the most out of your studies.

Choose a work environment that encourages constant learning.
