GO BOLDLY HOMEWORK

  1. Look back on an experience where you were proud but you didn’t receive the external validation.  Journal how you felt?  How did it affect you going forward?
  2. For the rest of the week, pay attention to when you are waiting for external validation.  What is the reason behind that? Think about how you are feeing when that happens.
