Is there a characteristic you would like to posses that some of your classmates has?

Can people have different role-models because they want to emulate different characteristics?

Think about at least one person you know personally who inspires you (a coach, a teacher, a family member, a friend). If you can’t think of one person in particular, you can think of a composite of positive traits from different individuals (e.g., “my older sibling takes everyone’s opinion into account”; “my teacher is a strong leader, etc.).

write down the important messages you’ve learned from each person, or from the set of traits they have. OR

create an artistic representation of these messages.
