Self Reflection

To tackle my goals this semester I needed to have a clear focus. Tackling my goals this semester has made me a stronger dancer. From the start of the semester, I have wanted to work on the continuation of my goals from the previous semester. In each class I have worked on finding ways to work on my goals anyway possible. Reflecting my work from the beginning of the semester until now, I have seen myself wanting to be more dedicated to my goals each class. The goals I had for the semester helped me to progress and I continue to work on the ones I struggle with. By having a strong work ethic and clear focus I have had a chance to work on all my main goals throughout the semester: musicality, fluidity, tension, staying lifted in the core, and confidence.

I got a 39 within UCLA Loneliness Scale on the textbook and I was surprised with my result because I did not know that my score has been this higher compared to other men scale which is average of 32. I did not feel any anxiety and fear when I took this scale in the textbook because I feel very confident with myself and relationships with other people. I always trying to respect other people during the conversations nor hanging out with them during a free time because they were always respect me as well all the time. Furthermore, I always listen to other people who needs advice because I want to help them with my experiences.

I am currently a student at the University of Texas at San Antonio for almost a whole semester now. I came to this school straight out of high school, not knowing what I was getting myself into. During my high school years, I was good at every subject except my writing class. Coming to UTSA, I knew I was going to struggle in my writing class, but that didn’t discourage me from not trying my best in the course. Going through the English program, I realized that I have some strengths and weaknesses in the class, and it encouraged me to do better. The essays I have written for this class demonstrate that I have developed a strong thesis, organization skills, and detail; however, I still need to improve on grammar, keeping the POV, and citing.

In 2013, an estimated 24.6 million Americans aged twelve or older (9.4% of the population) had used an illicit drug in the past month (NIDA, 2015). In 2016, about 3.6 million adults aged 18 or older received any substance use treatment in the past year, representing 1.5 percent of adults (SAMHSA, 2017). These numbers are not even taking into account any type of behavior addiction such as shopping, gambling, social media, etc. Strong of these numbers, as counselors we can see the importance to gain knowledge about drug and behavior addiction and its process. In order to have a better understanding of the process of change, we have been assigned to abstain from a substance or a behavior for a period of 15 weeks and to reflect about it.

Self-reflection is one of the most challenging aspects of writing. Rationalizing why I deserve the Top Graduate award is a humbling task, but I feel as though I can present a strong argument. Consequently, the goal of this essay is to inform the board of my journey at Park University. My selection to compete for this award has been an honor in itself, and will do my best to give you my credentials. However, before I begin, I will lay out a concise background on myself to help you understand a little about who I am.

My insights on cultures in the United States have changed quite a bit as a result of my studies this semester. I have a much greater understanding of ethnic groups, gender and sexuality issues, religions, and poverty. My new knowledge base will help me as I become more culturally competent and, therefore, more responsive to my future clients. I am anxious to incorporate my new understandings into my classroom and hopefully in a position as a school counselor.

This past semester in Modern III, I have found different things about myself in terms of shifting my movement vocabulary into something new. The somatic work in the beginning of class has allowed me to step out of my comfort zone and experience something new. Imagination has been a key factor in this. Three different goals that I have been working on this past semester have been keeping my abdominals engaged, my ribs to soften always, and allowing my transitions to flow smoother. As I mentioned in my midterm self-evaluation, I believe that I have come a far way from the beginning in the semester until now.

According to the Keirsey Temperament workbook, my combined values make me a guardian. My knowledge, experience, dedication, authority, and reliability are strengths that make me a great leader. I choose to manage the recycling yard, public, and staff like any great manager would. In order for me to manage efficiently, I would like to improve a few things. I find myself to be very easy going, abrupt, and shy, and have come to realize these attributes hold me back. Aside from the areas that need improvement, the effectiveness of my strengths creates a healthy and enjoyable work environment.

The human identity provides individuals with a sense of self, and by examining one’s identity, questions such as “Who am I?” and “What is my background?” can be asked. While both questions don’t fully allow one to recognize who they truly are, they provide a useful starting point. Additionally, as one ages and experiences what life has to offer, the puzzle of one’s identity can be pieced together. Though the events of life have the potential to reinforce one with a positive sense of identity, they can do the opposite as well. When children are bullied, they feel worthless, for their identities are treated as such; conversely, when an individual is promoted at work, their identity as a hard worker is commended. In summary, our actions and

As a learner in business school, I have steadily found the appropriate way to learn about master of commerce and even in my future career after signing up for the course in MGMT-5050, that is, throughout self-regulatory processes. According to Zimmerman (2000), self-regulation is a cyclical process and it indicates individual’s ability to formulate thought, feeling and actions that result in gaining individual’s goals utilizing some information that an individual has acquired from previous performances. Since I was a science student in my Bachelor degree, it is completely difficult for me to study in a new area in Master of commerce and I was not sure how to study. However, throughout taking compulsory course in MGMT-5050 I have learned the business-based case analysis from others successes and failures in CAWs and the approaches to learn in business from the perspective of teams and competitive advantages in SDWs. I would like to use Zimmerman (2002) perspective as references and my experiences combine with Gibbs’ reflective cycle (1988) or Johari Window (Luft & Ingham 1955) to demonstrate an informed view of my learning to date and my development for the future.

My sophomore year after a basketball game, I burst into tears. Funny thing… we won the game. I wasn’t sure what I was feeling. I had no real reason to be upset. My teammates were frustrated because we didn’t play well and their attitudes were bothering me. On top of that, I was struggling with friends at school. I was struggling to find connections with people. Further, I was withdrawing in a way that I always had. I realized I needed help. My parents listened and recommended that I see a counselor, so I went. Her name was Eryn.

In our daily life's family members, friends, sales people, and stores try to convince us to buy or sign up for a certain product. It is not obvious what tactics the merchant is utilizing because we are so curious to see if the product is rightful to use or beneficial to use. In growing older more people approach me to sign up for insurances, credit cards, cars and mobile phones in doing this because they see me as a young woman. As a result, they think I will comply to what they are asking of me. In taking this class learning about the weapons of influence which are conformity, scarcity, commitment, authority and liking I paid attention more to the persons words and actions towards me.

Self-reflection; defined as the capacity to exercise introspection, and willingness to learn more about one's fundamental nature and purpose, has become a recognised aid in personal progression. Providing us with a subjective view on how we gain our accomplishments, equally, how we overcome obstacles faced in the process (Mezirow,1990). Zimmerman (2002) suggests it is necessary to analyse our behaviour to consider our strengths while attempting to understand our weaknesses. Given, when correctly utilised such practice encourages us to strive towards our desires. As a result of such studies, self-reflection is encouraged throughout society as an aid to support our advancement in a range of areas; personally; in education; business and mental health; cognitive learning therapy, are just some of the areas self-reflection is propagated. Notably, there can be an uncomfortable feeling around ‘self-reflection’ however; this is a process that on an unconscious level the human being applies thousands of times a day. Although, when one is not aware, they do so without being able to reason with their judgement, in turn, not providing the guidance necessary to apply ourselves appropriately. Therefore, many studies support the need to consciously reflect in multitudinous areas of our lives on a regular basis. (Grant, Franklin, & Langford, 2002). Throughout this essay I shall focus on self-reflection to plan my career, how when applied, I have found it beneficial in the past and
