Start this by looking through this article about NY Times columnist David Brooks:

You should look especially at the first part, about an Adam I vs an Adam II. We would like you to think out or actually write a one-page essay reflecting on your life as seen through his distinction between Adam I and Adam II.  Brooks talks about the difference between “résumé virtues” and “eulogy virtues.”  

He cites the biblical and rabbinical origin of the distinction, and while he provides several further pages of how he distinguishes the two—Adam I from Adam II—in the end his distinction made the most sense when he wrote the following: 

Adam I is the external, résumé Adam. Adam I wants to build, create, produce, and discover things. He wants to have high status and win victories. Adam II is the internal Adam.  Adam II wants to embody certain moral quantity. Adam II wants to have a serene inner character, a quiet but solid sense of right and wrong – not only to do good, but to be good. . .To nurture your Adam I career, it makes sense to cultivate your strengths.  To nurture your Adam II moral core, it is necessary to confront your weaknesses. . .We live in a culture that nourishes Adam I, the external Adam, and neglects Adam II.  We live in a society that encourages us to think about how to have a great career but leaves many of us inarticulate about how to cultivate the inner life.

In many ways, in other words, the Adam I is the public me, the persona we present to others, the persona of our college apps, for example, whereas the Adam II is the more private, the more interior me, the me I am at my core, that which I really am when I take the time to reflect on my inner self, so in some ways the real me.

Brooks goes on to say:

Soloveitchik argued that we live in the contradiction between these two Adams. The outer, majestic Adam and the inner, humble Adam are not fully reconcilable.  We are forever caught in self-confrontation.  We are called to fulfill both personae, and must master the art of living forever within the tension between these two natures.

In this exercise you think about or write or outline an essay in which you describe your two different Adams—your own Adam I and Adam II—and the degree to which they are in tension or reconcilable for you personally?  (That is a three-part thought exercise or essay: Your Adam I, your Adam II, and how they relate in your mind.)
