"Write Your Life" is the process of creating a short script of what you want in your life. It's similar to goal setting, but focuses more on who you are being and how you feel. Once you have written your script you take a few minutes daily to read it to yourself. This is a practice that can take you through your life. As you grow and change you edit sections of the script to fit your new goals. In the class we will talk about what journaling is and how it can be used. We will begin with a guided visualization to help the students look out into the near future and see how they want things to play out in their lives. We will then work through a series of reflection questions to help them focus their writing. We will be focusing specifically on how we want life to feel, how we want to move through our day. This class goes deeper than the question of "what do I want to do with my life" and addresses "how and who do I want to be." It allows you to question why you make some of the decisions you do, what is it that you ultimately want. There will be time for questions as we move through the process.
Learning Goals
Students will leave the class with a rough draft of their first script.
They will learn to pay attention to how they feel about the different aspects of their lives and the power they have to improve in the areas they desire.
They will know how to use their script and how to edit and change it as they move forward in life.

Teacher expertise and credentials
I have had great success using the "Write Your Life" process and wish I had known about when I was younger. So many kids feel life is a bit out of their control and the "Write Your Life" process gives a bit of control back to them. They are at the age when they are starting to make decisions about their future and self-reflection can help them to make better choices. Reviews
