Answer 1

My life goal is to become a successful pianist. I plan to achieve this goal by mastering the skills to become a professional piano player. I have been playing piano from a young age, but i have taken up professional training since 2 years, but i still need to practice and start composing my own music. Composing my own music is taking a lot of time and effort and i need to work on these skills by getting together with other artists and learn how to compose new songs.

I was born in a middle class family and my childhood was fairly good. According to Adlarian theory as i was the elder brother i was given a lot of responsibility from a young age and was more serious than my younger brothers. Psychoanalytically i had pretty good first five years of my life and did not experience much conflict with id, ego and superego.

During the Ericsson's identity was role confusion stage, i encountered role confusion and formed an identity very late. From Rogerian view point, since my early adulthood, i was pretty focused on actualising my potential by working on my piano skills, and training as much as i can. I have reached the aesthetic needs in the Maslow's hierarchy of needs and strive to reach self actualisation.
