Feinberg: Growth Self-Assessment Checklist

Growth Self-Assessment Checklist

By answering the questions below you can get some idea of your growth during the past year—in your working life and in your personal life. Whenever the answer is yes, check the appropriate box. In judging your own responses, remember the first principle of maturity: Accept yourself! The number of checks you make is not significant. What does count is the quality of progress you have made in areas that you yourself select as important to your life. Check off the list. Put it aside. Then, in six months, check it again.
