Self- Awareness Activity for Youth Athletes

The Self-Awareness Workout for Youth Athletes is a unique mindset and performance development tool designed to help young athletes (ages 7–18) build greater awareness of their strengths, challenges, and overall athletic identity. In this digital download, athletes complete a guided self-awareness activity through viacharacter.org and then transfer their insights into a structured reflection page to identify their top strengths as well as “bottom strengths” (areas for growth and improvement). This process helps athletes understand themselves beyond physical performance by developing mental discipline, emotional awareness, and goal clarity. By recognizing both strengths and weaknesses in a positive, growth-focused way, athletes learn how self-awareness leads to better habits, stronger work ethic, and more consistent performance in sport and life. Perfect for parents, coaches, and youth development programs, this worksheet supports confidence building, accountability, and long-term athletic growth across all sports.
