About Toolbox Quizzes

Simply being aware of some aspects which drive and influence our daily lives is a powerful first step to turning inward with curiosity and care, and which may initiate further ideas/choices.

Quizzes can be conducted with or without a support person, and are useful for individuals to:

  • Build better awareness of how they see themselves.
  • Explore their inner world with curiosity, not judgment.
  • Support emotional wellbeing, creative expression, and personal growth.

And for professionals to:

  • Aid counsellors and psychologists to use these tools at their own discretion.
  • Coach and educate to foster metacognition and reflective learning.
  • Further narrative therapy, dialogical therapy, and cognitive-behavioural approaches.

Quizzes may additionally prove beneficial for user selected third parties (IE in a pre-employment assessment situation, sports coaching, or professional counselling environment).

Self-Image & Ego

Self-Image, ego, self-opinion and self-respect all sort of sit in the same camp deep inside us, each having distinctive attributes and roles (see Deep Dive for more). We each carry subtle variations or different  opinions of ourselves, as specific to activities, subjects or situations, though they are used somewhat interchangeably in a general sense to define that main inner vibe or feeling we have about who we are, how well we understand ourselves, how we satisfactorily perceive ourselves, and with what confidence we have with our role in life - at home, work or play.

Rejection Has Never Felt Better!

Isn’t it funny how relieved you feel after finally getting up the courage to speak to the hottest boy or girl at a party, and your advance is shut down, leaving you feeling like you’ve just been slapped in the face! It might not seem reasonable when the initial goal was for a Vegemite sandwich in the morning, but many feel precisely this way, while others reflect the opposite on their bummed-out efforts with thoughts such as, ‘I knew this was going to happen, what a waste of time, no one likes me, I’ll just go sit down’. If you are one that would feel relief, you can probably go back to Minecraft, but if you would rather beat yourself up in the other camp, then maybe read on.

Self-Image & Ego – Real Deep Dive

Ego and self-esteem are understood to hover somewhere between our conscious-Self and our subconscious. A point common with effort and processes toward new goals and desirable outcomes, is in keeping our feet on the ground and giving ourselves a ‘tune-up’ if our head gets too big. These human characteristics are enthralling and fascinating and play an important role in modern (positive) psychology – and especially when working with affirmations.
