Étapes

Hide the material and prepare it so that each component can be taken without revealing the others

  1. Place an empty container in front of the assembled young people.
  2. Fill it with stones to the brim. Ask: "Is it full?" Young people are likely to answer "yes".
  3. Take the pebbles and slide them into the free interstices between the stones. Ask "Is it full?" Young people are likely to answer "no".
  4. Indeed, take the sand and repeat the action. Ask the same question again.
  5. Finish filling to the brim with water

CONCRETELY :

What happens if you start by filling the container first with the water, or with the small pebbles?

FOR FURTHER :

In your life, what are the big stones and the small pebbles?

Big stones or small pebbles? : health ? family ? work, studies? silver ? debts? friends ? hobbies ? smartphones? social networks? sports?clothing? ...

1- My choices transform me, they move my life forward.

Sometimes it is difficult to choose, because I am afraid, because it requires me to sacrifice (give up). However, my choices make me live and, because I am responsible for them, I put in place the person I want to become. Through my choices, I can gradually achieve the purpose of my life.

2- Here is a method to help make a choice when you hesitate:

  • Express the goal to be achieved: My goal is to...
  • Express choice: I have to choose between xxxxxx and xxxxxxxx
  • Seek advice (a relative, a sage, an expert)
  • Write down the pros and cons of each choice
  • Compare options, alone
  • Deliberate
  • Picking out
  • Express why I choose this or that option, and not another

3- Ask young people for concrete cases where they had to make difficult choices. Also offer them real and real-life examples of well-known or lesser-known personalities in their country.

#choose

Each situation is different and gives rise to decisions of greater or lesser importance. A small choice (choosing the color of his shirt) does not commit me as much as a big choice (choosing the woman of my life), but small choices prepare me, help me learn how to organize myself and prioritize.
