who am i?

I was talking with a friend at work the other day, and I mentioned that I am very disappointed in the way my life is going right now. He said to me that he came up with something while he was incarcerated that helped him to get his life back on track. Not that being incarcerated didn't help, but this was something he did for himself, not a state issued recovery. He also told me that while he was locked up, he asked his friends to do this exercise and to send it to him while he was in prison so he could see how they viewed themselves. He stated that many of his friends told him that this helped them to put their life into perspective.

Basically it's a life review with a critique and goals. Here are the set of questions:

• Who am I?
• Is this the person I want to be?
• What kind of person do I want to be?
• What do I need to be that kind of person?

I think I might try this and see what happens. If anything I will at least be able to put down on paper some of my thoughts and it just might help... who knows.
