MODULE 3: THE HUMAN PERSON AS AN EMBODIED SPIRIT

Activity 1. Answer the following questions.

1. What are your limitations as a person? What are the things that you consider
as difficult or hard for you to accomplish or believe in?

For me, my limitations are being exhausted. Because being exhausted

every time makes me vulnerable at all times either emotional or physical and it
limits what I can do every it made me weak. The things that I consider as difficult
or hard for me to accomplish or believe in, when my plans to accomplish
something was failed most likely it will become harder to get track of it.

2. What are your strengths? What are the possible things or status that you can
reach or achieve in the future?

God is my source of strength, everytime I at my limit always Him whom I

called, and my family they are the reason why I am keeping my strength, my
friends even though I’m not saying anything they always check I’m ok or not.
The possible things or status that I can/want to reach or achieve in the future
are: I want to reach every goal that I want and repay all the people help me
when I’m at my limit.

3. What are the factors affecting your limitations? How about possibilities?

The factors affecting my limitations is my mind and body, because my

body is easily to get tired even though I’m only sitting at the chair and it hard to
keep it up when my mind getting tired to, I wish I’m always have energy then I
will be limitless.

4. Do you see yourself improving in 5 – 10 years’ time? How can you say that
you are improving?

I am a goal digger, a person motivated by intention. I've always striven for

quality and perfection. And part of my commitment is to ensure that I am still
progressing little by little. And knowing how particular I am about my
improvement, I can certainly guarantee that in 5 to 10 years, I would be an even
better person. Since I believe that I am progressing and I am learning from
everything I do, and with any situation, I still make sure that I do not repeat as
many of the mistakes I have made before.
5. How can you transcend from your current limitations?
I can transcend from my current limitations from improving and keep
practicing myself, If I'm going to be a better person than I am now, I will
overcome my present limitations.
