 Lesson Overview

Have you noticed the changes in your body during high school? How about the
things that you want and like? This is quite normal during adolescence stage where
change is necessary as you transition from being a child towards adulthood. There
may have been changes such as your height and weight as well as your strength and
endurance. However, other changes could be in terms of your preference such as the
type of people that you hang out with or how you deal with different relationships.

Changes in how you think and what you always think, what you feel towards
other people and on other objects and situations, and what you do with yourself and
other people are common occurrence among the adolescents. However, problem
arises when these changes becomes confusing and unacceptable. For example, you
become even more aware of your identity during this stage, and what you discover in
yourself might make you happy and mature but sometimes it may be scary and you
might want to understand it or run away from it.

To help people deal with these inadequacies; self-inquiry, discovery,

awareness, and acceptance are some of the important steps that could help you
achieve the realization of your potentials. Hence it is important for us to look deep
into ourselves and understand how we process things and why we do so. Also, when
you are aware of your thoughts and feelings, you will be able to manage your actions
even when you are under a stressful situation. After all, you may not be able to
change the situation, but you will always be able to control your reaction. Being able
to manage your actions also leads to better social skills which is the basis for
emotional intelligence which is just as important as your IQ.

In this topic, you will be learning about awareness of your thoughts, feelings,
and behavior and realize that these three are related with each other.
