Dr Barbara Kerr talks about the importance of VALUES when choosing a job/career:
“Traditional career counselling techniques which emphasise matching client’s abilities and interests with job characteristics may be of little use to the [Highly Sensitive Person]. Instead, an approach based on identifying the most deeply held values [of the HSP], and planning life goals which actualise those values, may be the treatment of choice. Career development then becomes the search for MEANING rather than the search for a job.
from Dr Barrie Jaeger’s book, “Making Work Work for the Highly Sensitive Person”
