5 - First-Last-Best-Worst-Weirdest Exercise

Firstly, there’s no video for this lesson! (at least yet, we will probably update soon)

So, now that you’ve done your Career Retro, here’s another cool activity to deepen your reflection.

This is the First-Last-Best-Worst (+Weirdest… this one was added by us) from Matthew Dicks.

What you’ll do:

For each topic or theme in your career (e.g., jobs, projects, skills, experiences), list:

• First: What was the first experience or instance?

• Last: What was the most recent?

• Best: What was the best?

• Worst: What was the worst?

• Weirdest: What was the weirdest?

See the image with an example done by Lucas below.

ATTENTION!!
Don't feel that you need to answer all of them for every topic.
Also, feel free to replicate the exercise with any theme you can think of!
And for those of you that are very “order” oriented… allow yourself to be flexible doing this exercise. It’s okay if you wish to skip or leave blank any of them. Or maybe you don’t remember exactly… just put what comes to your mind. You can always come back to the exercise and change it!"

This activity can lead to interesting memories and insights that might have been overlooked.
