Please grab your journal (or other note-keeping tool) and take a few minutes to reflect on the following questions.

Remember: there are no right or wrong answers. Our goal here is simply to help you notice where your own experiences intersect with the A2A Model.

 

EXPLORING YOUR OWN A2A JOURNEY

  • What adversity has most impacted you on your life’s path?
  • In what ways has this adversity shaped how you understand other people?
  • Has that understanding led you to help someone else?
  • If so, did that act of helping affect your sense of purpose?
  • If so, how has that purpose influenced your ability to face future challenges?
