How Teen Girls Can Find Their True North

“True north” is often used to describe a person’s internal compass or guiding principles. Finding your true north can be a process of self-discovery and exploration for teen girls. 

First and foremost, knowing who you are and what you stand for can help build confidence and resilience. When you have a strong sense of self, you are better equipped to deal with life’s ups and downs, including the inevitable challenges and setbacks during adolescence.

Finding their true north can also help you set goals and plan for their future. When they clearly understand what they want to achieve and why it matters, they are more likely to stay focused and motivated. This can be especially important regarding academic and career aspirations and personal goals related to health and well-being.

In addition to building confidence and setting goals, finding your true north can help you develop a sense of purpose and meaning. When they have a strong sense of their values and beliefs, you are more likely to feel connected to something bigger than yourself. This can provide a sense of fulfillment and satisfaction that can be difficult to find in other areas of life.

STEPS TO FINDING YOUR TRUE NORTH

1. Get to know yourself:

Spend some time reflecting on your values, interests, and goals. Ask yourself what makes you happy, what you’re passionate about, and what you want to achieve in life.

2. TRY NEW THINGS:​

It’s hard to know what you’re truly interested in until you’ve tried it. Don’t be afraid to experiment and explore new hobbies, activities, and experiences.

3. Surround yourself with positive influences:

Seek out role models who inspire you and surround yourself with people who uplift and support you.

4. LEARN FROM YOUR MISTAKES:​

Everyone makes mistakes, but it’s how you learn from them that counts. Don’t be too hard on yourself when things don’t go as planned. Instead, use those experiences as opportunities to grow and learn.

5. Practice self-care:

Taking care of your physical and emotional well-being is crucial to feeling centered and grounded. Make time for activities that help you relax and recharge, such as exercise, reading, or spending time in nature.

Of course, finding one’s true north is not always easy. It requires introspection, self-reflection, and sometimes even a willingness to challenge long-held beliefs and assumptions. But the rewards are significant, both for the individual and for those around them. As an organization dedicated to empowering people, Compass Rose International can play a critical role in helping teen girls find their true north. By providing resources and support for self-discovery and personal growth, Compass Rose can help girls build the skills and confidence they need to navigate the challenges of adolescence and beyond. So to all the teen girls out there: take some time to explore who you are and what you stand for. Ask yourself what matters to you and why. And know that when you find your true north, you will be better equipped to navigate whatever life throws your way.
