Career and Life Planning

Before my Career and Life Planning class began, I was unaware life scripts existed. Not that I have thought about life scripts and how they relate to me, I see that I am made up of many, many life scripts. Thinking about life scripts, I have realized that both positive and negative reside in my life. I have also realized, the only life scripts that will stay in my life, are the ones I allow. When you are thinking about life scripts in your life, I find that positive ones can be harder to find. Luckily, I found that if I thought long enough on would surely come. It’s hard for me to think about this because I feel like I sound proud and that is the last thing I want to be. If at any time you think I sound overconfident or big headed, I promise that’s not where my heart lies. A positive life script I is being kind and understanding to people. It’s not very hard for me to think positive of people and act the same way. I am certain this positive life script has come from my family who has only ever been kind and understanding to me. Not only my family but also growing up in a church has somewhat molded me to this fit. Growing up in a church can certainly teach someone to be humble and with humility comes the ability to understand others. Another life script that can have a big effect on me (if I allow it) is being quick to judge. This is a big life script for me because coming from a Christian church, the cliché is to be horribly judgmental. This script has a positive and negative side to it. It is negative because as I grow I have been influenced by judgments made by other people. It is also negative because since I am a Christian people are quick to assume I’m an arrogant judgmental person, which is completely wrong. I believe we all have a strong ability to judge people which can be something hard to control. In the past, anytime anyone has said to me something negative about a person, I immediately paired the criticism to the person. I was unable to have my own thoughts about people who were never given the chance, and without second thought, the judgment became the person. I think the positive of this life script is lately I have been able to control it and slowly push it out of my life. I believe I have tried to change this about myself because of my cousin Morgan, who constantly loves, and reminds me to love no matter what. There is a negative script that I believe had a huge effect on who I am becoming as a person. One of my many downfalls is always trying to please others by my behavior or decisions. It has been hard to become someone I want to be and someone I love. This

like about this script?

Even though Kevin and Tankman represent the leading protagonist, having Lori and Dana be the anchors between the two worlds really helped to propel the narrative forward. I also found that out of all the characters in the script, Dana was my favorite…
