“Letting Go of Evaluation.” Use the provided
My Life Vision worksheet
as an opportunity to reflect on
what your world could be if the feedback you give and receive (to yourself, as well as to others) were only
assessment-based and
only
for the purpose of improving. What would be possible if the people around you
chose to help you improve rather than judge you? What would be possible if

chose to help
yourself
improve rather than judging (and, if you’re like so many people, also insulting, demeaning, and hating)
yourself?
