Through the first two chapters of this course I have learned many new things about myself. From why I am how I am with people to how much health risk my stress level is, the self-assessments have shown me something new in each one. Starting with the first self-assessment in chapter 1,the Jungian Personality test, I learned exactly how my personality works and how I fit into my particular type. I found the reason why I like helping others whenever I can but also have times I seclude myself from social activity is because while I was classified as (F)Feeling type, I am also (I)Introverted. The second assessment, “How Productive are You?”, showed me that while I am organized and this helps my production, I also need to pay attention to my surroundings and make sure I am not working in a cluttered area. After reading this bit of information I realized that my work area is cluttered and this does sometimes cause me to search for a document, making me frustrated at lost time. In the beginning of chapter 2 I took the third self-assessment about …show more content…

Concluding this fall semester in Ballet II, I believe that I have gained huge improvements. As stated in my midterm self-evaluation, I wanted to spend my time in ballet to focus on areas of performance quality. I set four goals for myself to work on as well that included: stronger lower abdominal core, the use of my port te bras, releasing tension in my hands, and increasing the articulation of my feet. In addition to these certain goals, my hip injury has been a main focus throughout this entire semester.
For this project; I will be discussing the findings of my personality type. According to “Jung’s Personality Test”, I am an ENTJ. Various sources point to this type as;” The Executive.” The research I have done has brought tremendous insight into; who I am as a person, the functions of my thinking process and how to utilize my strengths to be more of an efficient/successful person.

Watching my assessment video was a more positive experience than I I expected it to be before I initiated the process. Self assessments have always been hard for me though I have always understood why it is necessary to be aware of the progress the I have made. It is pertinent to obtain the skill set of finding the common thread in errors so you can go back and fix them. I have always been afraid of watching or hearing myself on video because I was afraid of the mistakes I would make. When I watched the video I was surprised at how well it went. Though there were errors, I was able to complete it without any major stumbles. By being given the task of having to review the work that I have done this far in the semester and applying the objectives
Likewise, my purpose of taking this class, is to obtain lifelong learning skills, that I can use in my advantage. I was always told, in business you never stop learning, I think this perosnal growth course can help me
I found the results of my self-assessments to be a very insightful and accurate description of myself. The results of the learning styles test and the Keirsey Temperament Sorter II are very valuable for examining my personality traits and learning style and making improvements as needed.
For this week’s assignment, I took a self-assessment in regards to who I am as a human being. I have taken many self-assessments throughout my life and assumed that this assessment would be similar to the assessments I have taken before. While some of the topics assessed today were similar or identical topics I have self-assessed previously, I had never taken a complete self-assessment until today.
It is through such plans and their evaluation of development that you can still come to an end on whether there may be real development or need for progress. In my personal improvement plan, they key targets of choice have been primarily based on the factors of time control, customer care and members of the family, choice making, communication in addition to improving other intuitive talents. That is due to the fact, such elements of personal and professional improvement have the ability to plan the way we advance. For this reason, I have been able to achieve a notable number of my logical goals and stay up for similarly growing. Aspects of personal and professional development have the ability to chart the way we grow with not only with regard to only relations with people, but also the attainment of personal satisfaction in the place of work or interaction. In my process of implementation, I have realized that the best ways of achieving such goals are engaging in interactions with different people at different forums, conducting extensive research, learning from people and conducting continuous progressive practice. Thus, I have been able to achieve a great deal of my goals and look forward to further
you are hearing your faults from other people they usually go in one ear and out the other,
People’s self-esteem either high or low is shaped by their life experiences. I believe a person’s self-esteem begins to take shape at an early age, with their parents being a major influence. Kind, positive, knowledgeable and caring parents help children create a positive self-image. Parents who do not feel good about themselves or others, sometimes take it out on their childern by belittling them or discouraging them. This leads the child down a path of self-doubt and eventually given the right circumstances a lower self-esteem.
A personal development plan is an action plan that gets you from where you are right now to where you want to be in future. This can incorporate learning hard skills (like project management skills) as well as soft skills (like active listening) (Bartels, 2013).
The point of the test is to make the theories of personality developed Jung applicable to real life. The 16 distinctive personality types result from interactions from different scenarios. Firstly, the world aspect. This targets the introversion and extroversion characteristic. To identify this, the main question is, “Do you prefer to focus on the outer world or on your own inner world?” Next, the aspect of sensing or intuition. Next, thinking or feeling, this idea is surrounded upon the question, “When making decisions, do you prefer to first look at logic and consistency or first look at the people and special circumstances?” This focuses on “Do you prefer to focus on the basic information you take in or do you prefer to interpret and add meaning?” Thirdly, In dealing with the outside world, do you prefer to get things decided or do you prefer to stay open to new information and options? ” After completing these processes the individual is given a four letter code which is their personality type. The first criterion, Extraversion or Introversion, signifies the source and direction of a person’s energy expression. The second criterion, Sensing or Intuition, represents the way someone perceives information. Sensing means that a person mainly believes information he or she receives directly from the external world. Intuition means that a person believes mainly information he or she receives from the internal
Well I guess I’ll start off this paper by being outright honest. I have never done this type of self-assessment exercise. So I’ll start this paper off with what exactly this type of self-assessment is. These types of self-assessments are meant to help show the individual (me) where my strengths lie and also where my weaknesses are as well so that I may try and lean on my strengths while improving on my own shortcomings. Essentially the Johari Window four regions model that we learned about is a great tool for this assessment. The first region is also known as the open area, which essentially means that this is what is known by the person about him/herself and is also know by others. The second region is known as the blind area in which this is information unknown by the individual but is known by others. Which could be behaviors that an individual does but does not realize that they are doing them. The third window is known as the hidden area. This area is essentially information that only you know about yourself and others do not. The fourth area is known as the unknown area. It’s known as that because this is information that you and others do not know about you. It’s when you take a look at these four areas and see your strengths and/or weaknesses are at and if you allow yourself to become open to feedback you then can improve on your own shortcomings and become a better leader.
1. Personally, this course has helped me to better understand myself in a variety of ways. For instance, I have learned that there are three different types of behaviors: Type A (hostility, competitiveness), Type B (patience, cooperativeness), and Type D (distressed). Out of the three that are mentioned, I am Type A behavior; which according to Feldman (2015), “is a cluster of behaviors involving hostility, competitiveness, time urgency, and feeling driven.” Although most people usually are between Type A and Type B behavior, I believe that I lean more
Personality is the expression of a person’s traits according to ones feelings, mentality and behavior. It involves understanding individuals’ traits such as withdrawal and willpower and how various parts of an individual link together to form personality. Personality expresses itself from within an individual and is comparatively regular throughout in an individual’s life. Different people have different personalities dependent on factors such as environment and genetic composition. Our personality is dependent on the success or failure of our development in the eight stages of life. This is proposed by Erik Erikson. Success in the development stages lead to virtues while the failure leads to malignancies.
There are few branches in my personal development plan. First of all I planned to learn, obtain and improve the skills and knowledge that I needed for my survival
