Before we can help a young woman or girl to set goals for herself, it is important to understand how she perceives herself. What makes her happy? What does she feel is lacking in her life? We can only start building when we have established what foundations have already been built. This tool will help you to establish, as a team, what your mentees’ priorities are:
On a scale from 1-5, where 1 is satisfied, 3 is neither satisfied or dissatisfied, and 5 is very dissatisfied, ask your mentee to rate her:
Friends and relationships _________________________________
Family relationships _______________________________________
Social life __________________________________________________
Health and wellbeing ______________________________________
Diet _________________________________________________________
Education & attainment __________________________________
Sense of belonging ________________________________________
Hobbies or sport __________________________________________
General knowledge _______________________________________
Spirituality (allow her to define this herself) _____________
Tip: You can also use the Wheel of Life tool at youthempoweringprogramme.co.uk to help you both to increase your awareness of what is and isn’t working so that you can set goals together.
