Thought of the week -Who are you? Are you who you want to be?

Theme: Who are you? Are you who you want to be?

Quote:

“Unlike a drop of water which loses its identity when it joins the ocean, people do not lose their identity in the society in which they live. Our lives are independent. We are born not for the development of the society alone, but for the development of ourselfs.”

Explanation/Question/Challenge:

We see so many adverts for celebrities and people in the media every day.  They have probably been photoshopped to look perfect and the best bits of their lives are portrayed as normal.  We can aspire to be like famous people, however their lives might not be as good as they are shown to be in the media.

• If you could be any famous person for the day who would you be and why?
• If you could change anything about yourself, what would you change?
• In pairs think about a couple of things you want to achieve in the next 5 years. Do you need to change anything about your attitude/behaviour to be able to achieve that?
