For me it’s places – where I am makes a huge impact on my productivity and overall happiness. I got into real estate law because I like looking at other people’s places (homes) and buildings.

How does a person who exhibits almost all of these personality types reconcile to choosing just one? I find that I identify most strongly with information and place … but also with people and movement. And, echoing Rob, how does one discover what career areas will reflect the personality type?

Harrison,

I really appreciate your insight. I found myself relating to this article in a new way. I most identified with “information” being my highest motivational characteristic. I am curious as to your thoughts, or the thoughts of your readers, on what careers most align with this characteristic?

Hi Harrison,
I’m an unemployed attorney in Los Angeles and find your articles very interesting and helpful for my legal career and personal life. Would you consider taking on a mentee via email? Thanks and keep up the good insights.

Motivation is a driving force. In order to accomplish anything,we need a driving force, otherwise nothing will happen. A wish is not strong enough to make you take action. A wish is a weak desire. Only a strong desire can drive forward, to act and accomplish aims and goals.

In order to get motivated,we need to know exactly what it is that you want, to possess a strong desire, and to be willing to do whatever it takes to accomplish your goal.
