A MOMENT OF REFLECTION
Birthday Questions
I’m starting a new tradition with my partner, birthday questions; an opportunity for reflection and focus.
This year, on my boyfriend’s birthday, I told him I had some birthday questions for him.
At first, he looked a little scared. What was I going to ask? Did he have to prepare anything?
I told him there was no need to prepare; they would be easy questions.
- What are you most proud of in the last year?
- What comes to mind if you think of success in the past year?
- What do you wish you had dealt with differently in the past year?
- What was your greatest improvement last year?
- What are you most looking forward to for the year to come?
- What will make you feel happy in the upcoming year?
- What’s one thing you want to get better at next year?
- If money wasn’t an issue, what would you do next year?
- Would you change anything from the past year?
- Are you happy?
- Do you have any questions for me?
