Am I lazy and waste time and talents?

Am I greedy and selfish?

Am I respectful towards everybody and do I respect their property?

Have I been deliberately naughty at home or at school?

Have I made an effort to pray each day, paying attention to God in my life?

Have I complained that I did not wish to attend mass because I had other plans on Sunday?

Have I admitted the truth when I did something wrong, or instead have I told lies to get out of trouble?

Have I made anyone unhappy, or even made somebody cry?

Do I use my cell phone or computer and social media responsibly?

Do I say rude or cheeky things to annoy or hurt other people?

Do I try to control myself, my temper and my sexual urges?

Do I take things for granted and fail to say thank you?

Do I let jealous feelings take over and lead me to do or say nasty things?

Do I try to live more simply and share what I have in excess?

Do I really try to pay attention when I am in church?

Do I treat with less respect those who are poorer or less educated than me, or those of a different culture, race or religion?

Do I pressurize my parents unfairly into providing me with the latest fashions, games and gadgets?

Do I try to quickly apologize and make up with my friends of family members when we have a quarrel?

Do I care about people; do I try to be kind and gentle? Or am I bossy and always want my own way?

Do I try to be obedient and follow the good example of my parents?

Do I try to give good example to my friends and stop them from doing wrong things?
