Johari Window Reflection

I have chosen to write about myself. I am consistently trying to improve myself both personally and professionally. According to the test that we took previously for class on the Keirsey website, I am an INFJ. This stands for introverted, intuitive, feeling, and judging. Keirsey identifies INFJ’s as counselors. We care deeply about others and their feelings. Sometimes we often notice the feeling of others before they themselves were aware. We prefer independent work or very small groups as opposed to team work. This specific combination of amounts is only three percent overall and those around us may consider our personality to be unique. I have always felt unique but would have guessed

These statements are completely true when I think about how I accomplish the tasks I have to do daily. I create a checklist of what I need to accomplish by the end of day and when I am planning events as well. I have been told I can be anal retentive and OCD with tasks I have to complete. However, the downfall of me being detailed oriented is that I won’t ask for help because I have to have it done a certain way. My third typology trait is thinker.

I believe I am well organized, I plan things out the minute I receive them I don't like to waste time and regret that choice later in time. I have been told by many of the people around my I am organized and responsible, during my tenth grade year I would make study guides for even the smallest tests to make sure I would make the highest grade possible. I also try to turn in my assignments in as close as I can, the only reason I see that I wouldn't be able to is because of a legitimate problem and not just because I was too lazy to do the

To start, I have always been ambitious and strong-willed. When I have my mind set on something, I do everything in my power to make my dreams a reality.

One of them being conscientiousness. Conscientious people are very driven and orderly. They set goals and firm plans to achieve these goals. Rarely are they spontaneous or disorganized. My score within the Big Five Personality Profile was moderate for conscientiousness. I would say that I do exhibit some of these characteristics. I can be very organized and reliable. As a weakness, I find that I am not always a self-starter. I will set goals and stick to them, but need that push from others to get started. For instance, I was given the opportunity to work on an exciting new project at work that involves direct feedback from employees that I would personally deliver to upper management. This would be a big responsibility as I would be representing hundreds of employees and voice the current concerns of our group. I was asked to think it over. While processing the position, three others volunteered and I lost out of the opportunity. I took my time and wasn’t as organized in my decision making, therefore I missed out greatly.

I feel that my strengths are in the ability to follow rules and utilize order and structure in the work environment and in my personal life. I feel that doing so in a work setting helps me to meet company objectives, get tasks completed in a timely manner, and continue the cycle of productivity for the company. In my personal life, I think that it enables me to be balanced and to not lose sight of who I am. When you have a structured plan for your life, you are able to pace yourself and meet those milestones you have set for yourself. While I try to base my life in order, I also accept that sometimes my goals may not go as planned,

As I have mentioned above, that achiever, strategic, learner, belief, and responsibility are my top five themes as revealed by StrengthsFinder. I was astounded and amazed after reading the detail description of my personal five themes, because these are the most consistent behaviors that I display in my daily personal and professional life. I think this assessment is reliable and trustworthy, because the result provided on the bases of my responses drew an accurate picture of my strengths.

As I read more about my style, I can honestly say that there were few, if any, points that I disagreed with. In summary, I do not get my energy from engaging in large crowds. Analysis by paralysis is a real challenge for me, given I have a knack for the details. I won?t let my feelings get in the way of a decision which can be a relationship inhibitor if I don?t keep an eye on it. I Corinthians 14:40 and Ecclesiastes 3:1 will both maintain a special place in my heart; everything should have a time, place and purpose. My blind spots include my tendency to think that I?m right, which debatably I think I am. I may find myself facilitating ?win-lose? discussions and I tend to be extremely serious most of the time (Personality Type Explained, 1998-2017). My temperament is

A self-assessment through self-awareness is key for one to understand his own strengths and weaknesses. Only after conducting it, can he settle goals and objectives in order to take any corrective action. This is

This is the report to the Psychology 100 class assignment. In the assignment, I handed out surveys about my personality and asked others to rate me; then I collected and analyzed the data. The results will show that how other people see me may or may not be the same as I see myself.

Although I perceive myself as diffident upon analysis I am unaware of how others may perceive my self. According to Barber, McLaughlin and Wood (2009, p. 76) The Johari Window; Luft and Ingham (1955) can show us aspects of ourselves that we

Through out my life I struggle with academics, I had no one to guide me. Everything I do is from learning from my mistakes. It was a struggle, but with each struggle there’s a lesson to learn. Despite struggling academically, due to environmental circumstances, my parent’s struggle and instilled values empowered me to work hard to my best abilities. As I sit here writing this statement, I planned to write about my academics. But honestly, I wanted to take a detour from the traditional paper talking about my academic abilities. I want to write about the journey that I took to get where I am, and how it crafts my characteristics.

What are the character traits that you have been developing in your personal life and/or school? (200 Words Max.)

However, there are cases people can refuse self-awareness. According to Maslow (1962), people avoid acquiring new knowledge about themselves because of the uncertain and uncomfortable feelings they can receive (as cited in Whetten & Cameron, 2011). Whetten and Cameron (2011) believe dis-closure is the key for people to overcome that panic. By discussing one’s own aspects with others, people can reduce the ambiguity of problems. For instance, through exchanging results of self-analysis toolkits in Developing Self seminars, people can be more aware of their own strengths and weaknesses as well as receive feedbacks from others. Their Johari Window of what I know and what others know can be more extended.
