Careful vs attentive
Are there any differences between "I'm careful." and "I'm attentive"? Thanks in advance!

Thank you so much but I still find the differences between physical activity and visual activity vague.
physical activity=manual work, sports and so on
visual activity=supervision, babysitting and so on
Is my understanding right?
