What term is used to describe the state of being comfortable and confident with one’s life choices and purpose?

  1. Identity formation

  2. Ego formation

  3. Self-awareness

  4. Self-actualization

The correct answer is: Self-actualization

Self-actualization is the term used to describe the state of being comfortable and confident with one's life choices and purpose. Identity formation (A) and ego formation (B) both refer to the process of developing a sense of self and establishing one's identity, rather than specifically one's sense of purpose or fulfillment. Self-awareness (C) is also related to understanding oneself, but it does not directly imply a sense of confidence or contentment. Therefore, D is the best choice as it directly encompasses the concept of being comfortable and confident with one's life choices and purpose.
