-FINAL ACTIVITY IN PERSONAL DEVELOPMENT

Being a curious and self-improving adolescent there are some things that I have to discover for
myself such as knowing what I like and dislikes, my career path as well as having different views
or perceptions in life or in modern society. Having the ability to discover who you are as you go
through the process of improving and developing is nothing out of the ordinary and I, myself
have things that I’ve discovered about myself as I develop into the person who I am today and
that things are having the audacity to speak up my mind to those people I’ve once thought will
devour my whole being if I speak up what I truly feel as well as uncovering that I’ve been way
too consume in my thoughts and feelings that I come out as aggressive and lose sight of what
matters most in my situation. Despite the fact that I can lose myself in my thoughts I’ve
discovered that I can use this or my mind as well as my skills in solving problems with little
material that I have, for instance is making art with insufficient tools and making the most out of
it. Moving on with my discoveries about myself as an adolescent, lately the status of my five
aspect of development is like a tower of blocks which are properly in place yet isn’t stable
enough, and what I meant by that is that my aspects are well planned in my development yet I
can’t seem to construct them or take action in improving these aspects which makes it unstable.
Physically or my physical aspect is probably one out of my five aspects that is mostly falling
apart because of my lack of care for my physical body but I’m slowly trying to improve this
aspect as I see some minor problems that are revolving around my body. My mind has been all
over the place as I excessively over think about a small matter and stressing about it which
affects me cognitively in making right decisions as well as having a clear mind in focusing for
certain things that I must take seriously. With my cognitive aspect being in a bad state it also
affects my emotional aspect as I’ve become more immerse in my own feelings which leads me to
act out of the ordinary and cause some harm to those people I care about as I speak words out of
my emotion. Second to the last is my social aspect and with that being said my social aspect isn’t
looking that great as my emotional and cognitive aspect is being in a chaotic state which
drastically changes my way of socializing to other people which makes me turn away from their
help and hurting them with my words as I keep acting out which is why I’ve come to realize that
I shouldn’t just focus on my physical health or aspect but as well as my mental aspects. Lastly is
my spiritual aspect which I can say is that I’ve been lost in my path of faith in God because of
the events and things that are coming up that are stressing me out and making me lose faith as I
face some problems in my adolescent life but now that I have time to think about this matter I’ve
come to my senses that I haven’t lost the path of faith in my God which makes me want to better
to take in consideration of this aspect because God is part of my life. In addition to the status of
my five aspects of development there are also some challenges and demands that society has for
me as an adolescent which I need to conquer and reach in this stage of my life which is meeting
the expectation of my family and the people around me in choosing a good and profitable job
that gives me a good image or makes people think highly of me in the near future as well as
being good at something that my family wants me to be as well as having the skills in order to
achieve their dreams for me; facing the challenge of having people or primarily my family not
being in favor of what I choose in life is probably one of the hardest challenges that I must face
alone as an adolescent as well as not being sure of what career path I must take in my life has
taken a toll on me which is why in my adolescents I engage in different activities and learn new
things that might come in handy in the near future or would make me interested in as I continue
in discovering what I want to be. In terms of achieving certain development task I’m trying my
best in controlling my impulsive behavior as well as exhibiting maturity which are crucial in my
growth or development as I become an adult which is why I learn to avoid things or do things
that would provoke impulsive behavior in myself such as being considerate of other people’s
feeling and achieving maturity in my age as well as taking responsibility for certain things. As I
go through the process of being an adult, I prepare myself emotionally as what is to come as I
will face more problems or challenges when I set foot to adulthood; improving and acquiring
skills that are crucial for what career I choose in the near future in my adolescent is my way of
preparing for my adult life, which requires me to have certain skills in acquiring for a job and not
only that but also learning to be mature is crucial as I prepare for adulthood because I don’t want
people to think of me as ignorant and childish person that may “look” mature because of my age
and appearance but isn’t truly mature “within”. When it comes to responsibility I can’t say that
I’m a truly responsible person right now because there are certain things that I don’t take
seriously in my life or don’t feel the need to take responsibility for those that don’t concern me at
all but as I grow older and see the world from a different view it felt like a light flew right pass
me showing me the dark corners of the world that hasn’t been seen before, what I meant by that
is that I must take responsibility because neglecting my responsibilities have consequences that
I’m not aware of which might affect me, my career and the people around me in the long run
which is why I aim to be more responsible. Being an adolescent isn’t easy but it makes us have a
higher outlook in life and will make us competent in the face of adulthood.
