The first stage of Erikson's Theory of Development is trust vs. mistrust. This stage of development begins in infancy and continues until about 18 months. In this stage, a child learns the balance between trust (creating intimate relationships) and mistrust (protecting themselves). This stage is a very critical element in the psychological development of a child. The resolution that I chose in this stage was trust. As a child, I did not struggle much with trusting people but there was one person that I did not trust very much that I had to grow accustomed to over time and I eventually learned to trust him. I also feel that I am a pretty hopeful person. The quote that I chose to support my personal analysis is "If trust predominates, as it should, children develop hope."

The second stage of development is Autonomy vs. shame and doubt. This stage is seen from 18 months to 3 years old. In this stage, a child begins to replace their parent's judgment with their own judgment. I resolved this crisis by choosing autonomy over shame and doubt. For example, when I was little I used to fear staying the night at my grandparent's house but at around the age of 3, I began to make the judgment of whether or not I wanted to stay there instead of being forced to stay there. A quote that supports my personal analysis is "As children are better able to make their wishes understood, they become more powerful and independent."

The 3rd stage of development is initiative vs. guilt. This stage lasts from 3-5 years old. This stage is in which children balance pursuing goals and reservations about pursuing goals. I chose the resolution of initiative. As a child, I was always a leader and I loved to complete my goals and I always strived to be better. The quote that supports my personal analysis is "Children who learn how to regulate these opposing drives develop the virtue of purpose, the courage to envision and pursue goals without being unduly inhibited by guilt or fear of punishment."

The fourth stage of development is industry vs inferiority. This stage lasts from the ages of 5-12 years old. This stage is the stage in which children learn the skills that their culture requires or feel inferior. The resolution that I chose in this crisis was industry. As a child, I always worked to be better at my work and I loved always having something to do. A quote that supports my personal analysis is "Developing a sense of industry, by contrast, involves learning how to work hard to achieve goals."

The fifth stage of development is identity vs. role confusion. This stage lasts from 12-18 years old. During this stage, a child searches for a sense of who they are. My resolution to this stage was identity. I chose this because I have a good sense of who I am as a person and I also have a good sense of what I stand for as a person. The quote that supports this is "an adolescent seeks to develop a coherent sense of self, including the role she or he is to play in society."

The sixth stage of development is intimacy vs isolation. This stage lasts from 18-40 years old. This stage is where a person focuses on forming intimate relationships with others or isolation. So far in this stage, I have chosen intimacy. I currently have a girlfriend that I can imagine myself being with forever and I could not imagine being isolated from others or wanting to be isolated from others.

The seventh stage of development is generativity vs stagnation. This stage lasts from 40-65 years old. In this stage, a person develops a sense of being apart of a bigger picture and the impact that they left on the world or they look at the fact that they didn't accomplish or contribute much and they feel unproductive. I hope that I will choose generativity in this stage because all I want in life is to leave a good impact on the world and to be happy with the way I lived.

The last stage of development is ego integrity vs despair. This stage lasts from 65 until death. This stage is where a person contemplates their accomplishments and decides whether they lived a successful life or not. I hope that I choose ego integrity at this stage. I would love to look back on my life and decide that I am happy with how I lived my life and that I lived my one life to the fullest.
