This worksheet is asking you to think about what you love doing or want to try now that you’re not using drugs or alcohol. It’s like making a “fun list” for your new life!
Step 1: Think of things that make you happy, excited, or proud — big or small.
Examples: drawing, hiking, cooking, learning guitar, volunteering, playing soccer, reading mystery books, starting a garden, joining a club, traveling somewhere new.
Step 2: Write down at least 5–7 ideas on the lines provided. Don’t overthink it — just write whatever comes to mind.
Step 3: At the bottom, grab another piece of paper and answer these two questions:
Question 1: Pick 2–3 activities from your list. When can you do them? (Example: “I’ll go for a walk every Saturday morning.”) Tell someone your plan so they can help you stick to it.
Question 2: Pick ONE long-term goal (like “learn to play piano” or “run a 5K”). Break it into tiny steps. What’s step #1? (Example: Step 1 = Find a beginner piano app or sign up for one lesson.) When will you do step #1? (Example: “This Friday after school.”) Again, tell someone your plan.
You’ve got this! This isn’t about being perfect — it’s about finding joy in everyday things.
Final Answer:
Write your own personal list of passions, goals, and fun activities on the blank lines. Then, on a separate sheet, pick a few to schedule and break one long-term goal into small steps with a start date. Share your plans with someone who supports you.
