Dear Badass Black Girl,

Through these steps, you can identify what has worked in the past and what you have going for you right now. Based on these successes, you will be more specific about your goals. Of course, nothing is set in stone—circumstances evolve, and people change. But it’s a good place to start and gain some insight and peace about the direction you’d like to focus on.

Know also that answering these questions is not always easy, and you might come face-to-face with your own trouble spots and weaknesses. You need to resist the temptation to look at yourself too closely through the lens of other people’s strengths. Maybe your friend, Celeste, is carefree and funny. She is liberated. Unlike you—so plain, so boring. You’re anything but plain or boring. You’re just not Celeste.

Girl, stop! Be your own person.

The key is to move forward, and this three-step evaluation helps you do just that.

Kenbe,

MJ
