Although most individuals pass through adolescence without excessively high levels of "storm and stress," many have experience trouble or difficulty. Why? Is there something unique about this developmental period that puts adolescents at risk for difficulty? Some of the negative psychological changes associated with adolescent development result from a mismatch between the needs of developing adolescents and the opportunities afforded them by their social environments (Eccles, et al.) In this note, it is important to know better yourself so as not to experience such trouble. Defining the Concept of the Self According to Plato, the beginning of knowledge is self- knowledge. Other ancient philosophers define self in many ways but today, let us talk about the concept of the self. Self is the union of elements that constitute individuality and identity of a person, namely: body- constitute your Photo retrieved 07/20/2020 @ https://medium.com/the- physical attributes, your ascent/the-importance-of-knowing-oneself-and-3-ways-to-do- health, and your posture so-bcbfac002aed and poise; thoughts- the way you think, and how you perceive things around you; feelings or emotions- how you feel about the things around you; and sensations- a widespread reaction of interest and excitement about something. The union of these elements makes up your character or personality and essentially distinguishes you from others. No two individuals are exactly alike thus, YOU are UNIQUE...! and that makes you special. Self-awareness starts with assessing yourself so, to further know yourself, it is important to pause for a while and analyze what you feel, think, and do. Your ability to reflect and think about your own thoughts, feelings, actions is called introspection which is essential in understanding and improving yourself. Your physical attributes such as height, skin complexion, temperament and the likes may be inherited from your parents. On the other hand, the environment where you grow and the people around you may contribute as well in your attitude like how you behave on a given situation. Furthermore, environment and hereditary factors have contributed in the physical attributes and psychological makeup of a person. 4 Identifying Your Strengths and Weaknesses No one is perfect. Everyone has their weaknesses and limitations just like you right? Thus, it is never good to compare oneself with others because it will only cause frustrations as there will always individuals gifted with more traits and qualities. To avoid discontentment and dissatisfaction, it is better to focus on what one has. As Photo retrieved 07/20/2020 @ others would say “positive lang bawal https://www.canstockphoto.com/illustration/weakn ess.html ang nega”. Identifying your strength and weaknesses can provide you with more information about yourself. In determining your strengths, you will become: 1. more empowered to do developmental tasks such as capable of establishing mature relationships with others, emotional independent, demonstrate responsible behaviors; 2. equipped with skills essential in making wise decisions in life; 3. able to analyze complex situations logically and sensibly; and finally 4. more confident in doing your tasks and become more competent in achieving your goals. On the other side, knowing your weaknesses gives you the chance to know your limitations and so you can identify situations where you have to say no to a certain situation you are into. Perhaps you can already identify your weaknesses, but the challenge is, what do you do with these limitations? Remember that becoming more aware of your weaknesses is just a starting point of self-development. You must find ways to enhance your capabilities and transforming your weaknesses into strength. How? Read some tips below: 1. accept your weaknesses and limitations as a person; 2. keep on trying especially on the things you think you are weak; 3. develop your knowledge and skills by improving your study habits and keep doing the skills you are good at; 4. acknowledge your little successes and achievements; and 5. develop positive attitudes or outlook in dealing with life’s challenges. 5 Please read the text below for you to work on your weaknesses and build your strengths. BUILD ON YOUR STRENGTHS AND WORK ON YOUR WEAKNESSES Most failures emanate from weaknesses that are not recognized or probably recognized but not given appropriate attention or remedy. This could be a weakness in communications, personality or ability. Instead of giving up or indulging in self- pity, take action. Go for speech lessons, get skills upgrading, attend personality development sessions or whatever appropriate remedies to your perceived weakness. Instead of simply focusing on your weaknesses, recognize your own talents and abilities, build on them, utilize them to your greatest advantage. This is where you can build your name and popularity. Handicapped people like Jose Feliciano and other blind singers did not brood over their physical handicap. They recognized that they have a golden voice so they search for ways to enrich that talent and now they have won international fame in the field of music. Source: Roldan, Amelia S. 2003.

Please refer the rubric above. Example: A lady can say “I`m ugly” yet other consider her very charming. Or conversely, one can have the illusion of saying “I am very intelligent or competent” when most of his ideas sound unreasonable or illogical to most of the people. There is indeed a big difference between what you see in yourself (real self-image) and what is projected in the eyes of the others (your social image). 1. How realistic is your self- image? 2. To what extent does it reflect your real self? Source: Roldan, Amelia S. (2003). On Becoming a Winner: A Workbook on Personality Development and Character Building.
