   • What is my proudest accomplishment of all time?
   • What unique talents do I have?
   • What do people tend to compliment me for?
   • What positive impact have I had on other people’s lives?
2. Draft your responses as a journal entry, or a diary entry, or even a poem or a brief essay.
3. Submit your writing to a friend, a family member, or a social network. Reach out. Be social.
