From the options below drag and drop the different items into the venn-diagram to separate the items into three categories: needs, wants and top priority wants – things which significantly impact on your quality of life.
What was important to you when making your choices?
Some people may have put PlayStation as a top priority because this is important for them to relax, maybe even socialise, and they may find it difficult to adapt to a life without gaming. Others may have put a travel ticket as a top priority because they use it to get to school or work.
Your choices are dependent on what feels important to you – the BEST FEEL.
