 'Self-Reflection' Activity

Self-Reflection Activity - is an activity that lets one introspect into oneself to know one's deepest feelings, expressions, likes etc.

This activity is helpful for every individual to know more about oneself in a more meaningful and understanding way.  

Under this activity, students have to write down/ list out their favourite things/ people/ hobbies/ feelings/ wants/ desires etc., according to the order of their preference. 

The preference order can be in three stages with the first stage being the most important desires/ wants/ goals and then the secondary stage, followed by the third stage.

One has to really look into one's own self and analyse this order of preferences so that one can write/ list them out authentically and originally.

You can be very creative in doing this activity by using different types of circles/ shapes and using nice colour combinations.
