Choose a values-based decision that you must personally act upon.
Explain the dilemma well enough for a reader who doesn't know you to understand the difficulty.

This is just a pre-writing, brainstorming exercise.
he second step, due in a few weeks, will be to construct a chart of the argument that follows the four steps as they are laid out in your book. See the Part 2 assignment for details and examples. It is usually found in Lesson 10A, or close to there.
Dilemma:
I am currently considering whether to pursue a career in healthcare or law. Both fields align with my values of helping others and making a positive impact on society. However, each career path presents distinct challenges and rewards.
Consequences:
- Healthcare: A career in healthcare offers the opportunity to directly help people and improve their quality of life. However, it can also be demanding and emotionally challenging.
- Law: A career in law provides the opportunity to advocate for justice and protect the rights of individuals. However, it can also be competitive and stressful.
- Personal Fulfillment: Both careers offer the potential for personal fulfillment and satisfaction.
- Social Responsibility: Both fields have the potential to make a significant contribution to society.
- Financial Stability: Both careers can provide a stable income, although the earning potential may vary.
- Compassion: Both healthcare and law involve helping others and demonstrating compassion.
- Justice: A career in law is particularly focused on justice and ensuring that individuals are treated fairly.
- Service: Both fields offer opportunities to serve the community and make a positive difference.
