Welcome!  There is a lot on our website, and we want to help you make good use of it.  Here, we introduce the major parts of the site and how to use them.  You will probably want to return here several times.

We've organized it according to the three basic principles of good decision making:

1.  Know yourself -- your strengths, values, personality, and skills.  This will help     you decide which choice best fits you.

• Take the Career Key™ S-E test to measure two personality dimensions related to success as an entrepreneur and discover which Holland personality types you are most like,
  
• identify the careers and business types that are most promising, and learn detailed information about each one.
  
• Read about What Your Test Scores Mean when you receive your results to understand how your business success and job satisfaction is related to your personality.
  
• The activities in Learn More about Yourself will help you understand yourself better.

2.   Know your options.  Think of as many alternatives as you can.  And, then      learn about each one.

• Learn about Occupations gives you the websites that we recommend most highly.
  
• Learn about Small Businesses gives you a number of practical ways you can do this.
  
• Networking is an excellent strategy for identifying new options and learning about them.
  
• Recommended Resources is your gateway to the many excellent websites, books, and other sources of information and new ideas.
  

3.   Make a good decision. 

• At High-Quality Decisions you will learn a method based on many scientific studies that is widely used in business and medical settings.  It is easy to understand and use.
