Part I: Self-Reflection
List five (5) decisions you made that changed your life in some way.
These may not be the same as the Life Events, nor any more than two of the five may be in the same year.
Example:
-Deciding to do better in school.
-Deciding to go on a date with someone.
-Deciding to get a job.
Next, choose one and explain in a 100 word narrative why you made the decision. Give specific details.
List five (5) events that influenced your life in some way. Events are situations that you may not have had any control over (unlike life decisions that you do control your choice). You were a part of it with or without choice.
These may not be the same as the Life Decisions, nor any more than two of the five may be in the same year.
Example:
-Death of a family member.
-Moving to another home.
-Attending a musical performance that is surprisingly pleasant.
Next, choose one and in a 100 word narrative describe the event
and explain how it influenced you. Give specific details.
Often, our actions are based on previous events and result in experiences that might not have occurred if we had taken a different path as in Robert Frost's poem, "The Road Not Taken." Choose two to three such crossroad decisions and for each:
List five previous decisions or events that led to it, including the approximate month & year for each.
Then for each crossroad, list two to three events and/or experiences
that have resulted because of the choice you made. (You may list 3 concrete goals instead
of events/experiences.)
Review the crossroads. What personality traits relate?
