• Has anyone in your life helped you uncover an aspect, ability or talent of yours that, until then, had lain dormant and unrecognized?
• Has anyone provided you with a quote that had great meaning for you, that influenced your thinking or behaviour, and that you sometimes pass on to others?
• Has anyone provided you with an "aha!" experience that enabled you to pierce the core of meaning of some event, in someone, in something, or in yourself?
• Has anyone helped you gain knowledge about how things work? About how to get things done?
• Has anyone encouraged you to find a way to deal with challenges in your life or work?
• Has there ever been anyone in your life who had a profound positive effect on you, but you didn't realize it until much later in your life?
• Has someone in your life provided just the right help to you at just the right time?
• Has anyone in your life helped you to grow and deepen your character, moral or ethical integrity or gain a stronger commitment to your values?
• Has anyone inspired you to shift the direction of your life in a constructive way?
• Have you ever reached out to another person who was deeply in need and what you provided appeared to make a beneficial difference to that person?
