092: "Best Self" Exercise
This is a short reflection activity that can help reveal your unique strengths.
I hope you'll give it a shot!
Step 1:
Think of 3-5 people who know you well.
Your friends, family, loved ones etc.
Step 2:
Send them each a short email, asking:
"When have you seen me being my best self?"
I bet you'll learn something useful.
Good luck!

Here's an email template.

Dear [person],
I learned about a reflection exercise today. It involves e-mailing a couple people that know me well and asking them:
When have you seen me being my "best self"?
I'm hoping you can help me with any thoughts or examples that come to mind.
Thanks!
- [You]
