Add to ORKGPossible selves are important as they act as incentives and they provide an evaluation of the current self. Markus and Nurius (1986), proposed possible selves as representing individual’s ideas of what they might become, what they would like to become and what they are afraid of becoming. I have combined this concept with my doctoral research on career crafting. I will talk about cosmetic and core selves based on the experience from the auto-ethnographic study as well as the findings from my doctoral research. The use of crafting practices will be demonstrated for developing possible selves for achieving personal success
