CoRe lifted my spirits.
Josephine sees this phase of the CoRe programme as a major blessing. She mentions six personality traits and how one’s personality must be a key consideration in the choice of career, knowledge she had not averted her mind to before joining the programme.
My name is Josephine Amakye. I am a Student and I live at Ashaiman in the greater Accra region. I got introduced to the CoRe programme through my sister. I joined the programme at a time when schools were suddenly closed, and I had to stay home. It was quite a challenge but thanks to God, the CoRe programme kept me busy while at home and I never wasted my time. I believe I’ve become more enlightened by the numerous learning sessions I went through. My social skills have improved, and I learnt how to interact more with others. I gleaned a lot of information on how to design a career path and be successful.
Another session that was so revealing was about savings and investments. I realized through that lesson which was facilitated by Seth that I didn’t have to wait to get a huge sum of money before I start saving and investing. I can save little amounts and be consistent and regular with it and with time it will grow. This and many other lessons were so helpful to me having participated in the programme.
Indeed, the first face of the CoRe e-mentoring program has been such a blessing. All I ever knew was my dreams and how to achieve it but due to this programme, I have come to know about the six personality traits and how one’s personality trait must be a key consideration factor in choosing which career path to pursue.
I intend to help younger ones to know themselves well and not opt for any career due to parent’s advice or peer influence but rather choose careers based on their personality traits, gifts, and talents to enable them to excel.
