The approach for this would be a visual representation of events that the user can recall. Events will then be categorized and interpreted by the program to create a profile for the user to determine what characteristics, qualities, lessons the person may have drawn or pulled for said event.

I am specifically fond of the twister styled or declining swirling ribbon view of the timeline; having oldest events in the smaller bottom and then as the memories become more recent the ribbon becomes wider–> this way you are able to constantly rewind and add on for as long as you wish to have the Lessons Learned application applied to your life.
