There are also introspective questions and self-assessment checklists. Through the activities, teens are encouraged to develop a step-by-step plan so they can define their life goals and pursue their dreams."Make a Lifeboard" is a creative, encouraging project that is similar to scrapbooking, but is more like a mirror of your present life. By looking back at lifeboards through the years, you can remember specific moments that were meaningful to you. When you are in your 30s, this will be helpful to remember what happened when and why.You will also find ideas for:Reliving Favorite Childhood MemoriesChanging RoutinesDiscovering Your Life DreamTime ManagementAligning Actions with ValuesFinding a MentorExpressing GratitudeWriting a Goal StatementThis book can be used by teachers, counselors and group leaders.

Imagine reading this later! This will be enlightening to read as an adult. You will really see where you have been and realize which trains you took to get you to your present destination.I personally remember very little about my teenage years and this book would have really appealed to me as a teenager who was interested in creative writing and art. By reading through the various questions, I was able to remember some of my "forgotten memories." They are still there, they just need to be triggered.
