Success in life can be achieved only by understanding yourself. Happiness comes to those who know the purpose of life and adequately assess their capabilities. A person who knows why he was born and how to realize himself in life is truly happy. Therefore, understanding yourself is the most important task for every person. Psychological exercises can help to do this.
Necessary
paper, colored pencils, mirror
Instructions
Step 1
Take a sheet of paper, pencils and draw yourself the way you like best, the way you see yourself. You can portray yourself as an animal or some kind of creature, clothed or naked.
Step 2
Look at the picture and answer the questions.
- What colors are in the picture the most?
- In the picture, you are alone or in the company of someone?
- Are there emotions in the picture?
- Are you active or passive, naked or dressed?
- Is the paper space completely filled or not?
- Is the outline of the drawing clear or discontinuous?
- Did you all portray what you wanted, or did something fail?
- Are all parts of the body in the picture, and are they proportional?
Step 3
Look in the mirror for 10 minutes. Consider yourself carefully. You can undress if you wish. What impression did you make on yourself? What special characteristics do you have to describe yourself? What physical characteristics did you dislike and would like to improve them? What body parts did you like? Imagine your flaws in an exaggerated form or in the reflection of a distorting mirror.
Step 4
Write on a piece of paper ten words that fully describe you. Give each quality a grade from 1 to 10, depending on its importance.
Step 5
Analyze how many positive, how many neutral and how many negative qualities you have written. Which definition characterizes you most vividly?
Step 6
Imagine watching a movie about your life. Determine who plays major and minor roles. Think about the storyline, climax, and denouement. Think about your life path? What moral can you learn from watching this movie? How do viewers behave during and after the screening of the film?
Step 7
Write down the five best moments of your life and the five worst moments on a piece of paper, in columnar. In front of each event, write the reasons why it happened, what contributed to it. What was your role in this situation?
Step 8
Imagine that your double has been created, which has the goal of discrediting you in the eyes of others. He looks a lot like you and disguises well. But there is one secret, a personal secret, with which you can be distinguished. What is this secret, and who knows?
Step 9
Think about your future plans for life. Consider each specific goal separately. What are you doing to implement them? How long should they take to come true?
