Introductory Message
For the facilitator:

Welcome to the Personal Development – Grade 11 Alternative Delivery Mode

(ADM) Module on Developing the Whole Person!

Human life is complex and it consists of many different facets. We have our
work life, our home life, our social life, our spiritual life, and so on. We tend to
think of these areas as separate; after all, they each take place in different settings,
they require wholly different tasks, and they include different atmospheres and
social interactions.

What we often fail to realize is that each of these sectors of our lives impacts
one another. That is where Whole Person Development comes in. Whole Person
Development is a practice based on the theory that different parts of our lives are
intricately connected. It views success and fulfilment as a product of overall life
balance.

By viewing the different aspects of our lives as a whole, rather than

separately, we can set ourselves up for a balanced and prosperous life.

This module was collaboratively designed, developed and reviewed by

educators both from public and private institutions to assist you, the teacher or
facilitator in helping the learners meet the standards set by the K to 12 Curriculum
while overcoming their personal, social, and economic constraints in schooling.

This learning resource hopes to engage the learners into guided and
independent learning activities at their own pace and time. Furthermore, this also
aims to help learners acquire the needed 21st century skills while taking into
consideration their needs and circumstances.

In addition to the material in the main text, you will also see this box in the
body of the module:

Notes to the Teacher

This contains helpful tips or strategies that
will help you in guiding the learners.

As a facilitator you are expected to orient the learners on how to use this
module. You also need to keep track of the learners' progress while allowing them to
manage their own learning. Furthermore, you are expected to encourage and assist
the learners as they do the tasks included in the module.

 lOMoARcPSD|12510636

What’s New

Let’s have an Activity first before we discuss!

You will need to look into key aspects of yourself by looking inside and giving
attention to oneself, with the purpose of seeking holistic personal development.

Activity: ASSESS ASPECTS OF YOUR DEVELOPMENT

Draw a large circle on a blank sheet of paper. Divide the circle

into 8 segments.

In each segment, write some descriptions of the different aspects of

yourself as follows:

1. Physical Self. Describe yourself. Try not to censor any thoughts

which come to your mind. Include descriptions of your height,
weight, facial appearance, and quality of skin, hair and descriptions
of body areas such as your neck, chest, waist, legs.

2. Intellectual Self. Include here an assessment of how well you

reason and solve problems, your capacity to learn and create, your
general amount of knowledge, your specific areas of knowledge,
wisdom you have acquired, and insights you have.

3. Emotional Self. Write as many words or phrase about typical

feelings you have, feelings you seldom have, feelings you try to avoid,
feelings you especially enjoy, feelings from your past and present,
and feelings which are associated with each other.

4. Sensual Self. Write how you feel as a sensual person. What sense
do you use most – sight, hearing, speaking, smelling, touching? How
do you feel about the different ways you take in information -
through the eyes, ears, mouth, nose, pores, and skin. In what ways
do you let information in and out of your body?

5. Interactional Self. Include descriptions of your strengths and

weaknesses in intimate relationships and relationships to friends,
family, co-students and strangers in social settings. Describe the
strengths and weaknesses which your friends and family have
noticed. Describe what kind of son or daughter, brother or sister you
are.

 lOMoARcPSD|12510636

6. Nutritional Self. How do you nourish yourself? What foods do you

like and
dislike? What do you like and dislike about these?

7. Contextual Self. Descriptors could be in the areas of maintenance

of your living environment: reaction to light, temperature, space,
weather, colors, sound and seasons and your impact on the
environment.
8. Spiritual Self or Life Force. Write words or phrases which tell about
how you feel in this area. This could include your feelings about
yourself and organized religion, reactions about your spiritual
connections to others, feelings about your spiritual development and
history, and thought about your metaphysical self. Think about your
inner peace and joy. Think about your spiritual regimen or routine.

Well Done!

What is It

Let us now proceed with the discussion!

Reading: ASPECTS OF THE SELF
The self-concept is represented by several aspects of the self. It is
conceived as collection of multiple, context-dependent selves. This
construct believes that context activates particular regions of self-
knowledge and self-relevant feedback affects self-evaluations and affect.
A deeper look on the different aspects of self can identify specific areas for
self-regulation, stability and improvement.

In a nutshell, an individual is composed of three basic but very

different aspects of the self. They are the physical or tangible aspects as
they relate to the body, the intellectual and conscious aspects as they
relate to the mind, and the emotional and intuitive aspects as they relate
to the spirit. All three aspects of the self work together in perfect harmony
when attention is paid to all three simultaneously.

Many individuals put a strong emphasis on the physical aspect

of the self. The body is tangible, obvious, and we respond to it easily. More
time and money is spent on enhancing the physical component than
either of the other two aspects. This does not mean, however, that the
body is healthy or strong. The body provides a place to house the spirit
(often experienced as feelings) and the mind (often experienced as
thought).

Downloaded by Aveeey April (aveeey1151@gmail.com)

 lOMoARcPSD|12510636

It may be important to some that their mind be prominent and

well educated. The mind is important, as it is the part of the self that
directs the other two aspects. The mind learns what to do and
communicates the information to the body and the feelings. What the
mind believes, the body manifests or acts on, and the emotions feel, or
respond with. People store both healthy and destructive thoughts and
beliefs and responds to life's circumstances in the most prominent
manner. The mind provides access creativity and serenity which are
necessary for such processes as prayer, forgiveness, acceptance, and
passion.
The human emotions are the most feared aspect of the self, as
individuals are reluctant and unprepared to manage them. Managing
feelings is like trying to hold water in the palm of your hand. They are
illusive and deceptive. A decision made under emotional stress and strain
usually impacts emotions negatively. Negative emotions that are not
managed are stored and repressed. Repression is destructive to a content
self since all feelings, not only negative ones are stored away. Accessing
feelings when they are needed now becomes difficult, leaving the
individual numb and hopeless.

For instance, a girl realizes that she is giving much attention on

the physical aspects and less attention on her intellectual self. In this way,
she can discover how much money and time spent maintaining her
physique and its consequences in her grades. By this honest evaluation
of herself, she can plan effective actions to improve her study habits. She
can start seeking for help and for related books to read or browse articles
to help her improve her study habits.

Let’s take a look at the real life stories that shows

the three basic but different aspects of self.

1. Manny Pacquiao’s Unbelievable Success Story Will Inspire You

It’s 1990 in the province of General Santos in the Philippines.

Manny Pacquiao is 12 years old.

Despite his success, his family was still living in extreme

poverty and hunger.
They became so desperate to the point that his father had to
kill his pet dog for dinner. Pacquiao couldn’t forgive his father for what
he did so he left home, slept on cardboard boxes, and sold bread on
the streets just to make a meager living. At that point, he also used

 lOMoARcPSD|12510636

boxing and won matches for $2 each, as a means of escaping poverty.

He soon moved to Manila and continued winning several boxing

matches, but given the increased standards of living, he wasn’t
making enough to survive. He soon got a job at a local gym doing
gardening, cleaning and construction while boxing on the side.

He trained crazily all day and all night when possible, waking
up the earliest and leaving the gym at the latest possible time. Early
on, his perseverance and determination to be a part of the boxing
world swayed him to cheat and add on some weights to meet the
featherweight class requirements.

As the fights got more serious, Pacquiao started getting more

famous as well. He would beat fighters from South Korea, Japan and
Thailand and at the very young age of 19, he won his first World
Champion title by beating Chatchai Sasakul, the reigning World
Boxing Council (WBC) World Flyweight Champion at that time. The
turning point for Pacquiao came when he won against world-class
featherweight boxer Marco Antonio Barrera at the Alamodome in
Texas with a TKO. After that fight, he was recognized internationally
as a force to be reckoned with.

Today, at 37, he is one of the most respected boxers. Despite his

loss during the Mayweather match, he still has won the hearts of many
boxing fans both in the Philippines and worldwide. His one-of-a-kind
story will continue to inspire and it will always portray the journey of
what millions of Filipinos continue to aspire for.

3. A Love Affair that Got Me Close to a Great Doctor

I am blissfully married and a proud mother to three young men.

My husband Leo knows that I am also engaged in another love affair,
a sweet and enduring one. And he approves, so do my sons.

This love affair is with research, and it started during my pediatric

residency training. I can still remember vividly the excitement and the
long nights, the discovery of meaningful developments, the joy of
reading medical journals, the eagerness to prepare something
thorough and relevant. The excitement I felt continued up to my
postgraduate internship, my fellowship in infectious diseases and it
has lasted till now. My husband was never jealous and my
relationship with my sons never soured despite this other ongoing
and never-ending love affair. I could not ask for more. This is the best
life.

So last May 23, the family accompanied me to Vigan, Ilocos

Sur, to attend the 107th annual convention hosted by the Philippine
Medical Association (PMA). Being included as one of the 15 finalists
for the coveted Dr. Jose P. Rizal Memorial Awards is a proud moment
for my family. With them around, I was the proudest wife, mom and
doctor.

While individual citations were being read on stage for the top

Downloaded by Aveeey April (aveeey1151@gmail.com)

 lOMoARcPSD|12510636

awardees for Community Leadership (Dr. Purisima A. Bueno),

Government Service (Dr. Maria Victoria M. Abesamis), Clinical
Practice (Dr. Bonaleth M. De Vera) and Academe (Dr. Estrella B. Paje-
Villar), I never expected that the final citation was all about the fruits
of my other love affair, with research.

“Lead investigator for the much-awaited clinical trials on the

multivalent dengue vaccine…” “repeatedly cited by researchers here
and abroad…” “served as the springboard for the Expanded Program
of Immunization (EPI) of the Department of Health…” “provided the
evidence and the science…” “extended her work to the communities…”
“greater things to come that will benefit science, medicine and the
Filipino people…” “epitomizes the virtues of Dr. Jose P. Rizal…” “…love
of country and service to our countrymen…” All these brought me
back to the past 30 years of my medical, family and community life.

My love affair with research did not happen overnight. It was a

journey that began with a case presentation as a first-year pediatric
resident, and a prospective study on how to prevent early jaundice in
newborns. My recommendation that a nursery should always be
facing the direction the sun rises so that a newborn can benefit from
exposure to morning sunlight won the top prize for the hospital’s
annual research competition. This did not happen once. It was a back-
to-back win for three straight years. I got hooked. Who would not be?
Year 1991 was my first immersion in dengue research. Twenty-three
years later, I am now the lead investigator of the country’s clinical
trials for dengue vaccine, in the countries where dengue is a major
public health problem. It’s a vaccine the medical community
worldwide is waiting for.

In Vigan, the Philippine Medical Association (PMA) bore witness

to the conferment of the award. The title comes with a specially
designed trophy in the image of Dr. Jose P. Rizal by National Artist
Napoleon V. Abueva, a gold medallion, free trip to the United States to
attend the convention of the American Academy of Family Physicians
and P150,000 worth of medicines that I can share with a civic
organization of my choice.

Was it just a coincidence or pure fate that it is also the 23rd

year of the presentation of the prestigious Dr. Jose P. Rizal Memorial
Awards? If the number “23” is a coincidence, what a joyful one. If this
is destiny, let me accept it with gratitude.

This award is a fitting tribute to those who have encouraged

and inspired me to continue my love affair with research —
participants and their families as well as my teams in clinical trials,
officials of the local health, school and government units, the Research
Institute for Tropical Medicine, collaborators/ partners and sponsors
of my researches, Basaynon Katiguban, Inc. and my town mates in
Basey, Samar, who continue to show resiliency despite the tragedy
during the super typhoon Yolanda, the Philippine Pediatric Society
and Manila Medical Society for the recognition of my works and the
nomination.

For more than three decades, I have never felt happier and
accomplished than when doing medical research. It is tiring but
exciting, demanding yet humbling, intimidating but empowering,
exacting yet fulfilling. My work is my loving tribute to a great Filipino
and a fellow doctor, Jose P. Rizal, MD.

(Dr. Rose Zeta Capeding is the 23rd Dr. Jose P. Rizal

Memorial Awardee for Research. She is currently the head of the
Microbiology Department of the Research Institute for Tropical
Medicine (RITM) and head of the Dengue Research Group. She is the
head, Section of Infectious Diseases, Department of Pediatrics, Asian
Hospital and Medical Center.)

Let’s Talk…

After reading the three stories of success, Do you think success can define as
the status of having achieved and accomplish an aim or objective? So what is
success then?
The only person that can answer the above is you. I am neither able nor willing to
prescribe the ultimate definition of success, as this is not possible.
Every person is thinking about prosperous in life and is defining success in another
way, so there can’t exist a definition that is suitable for all. It is very important that
you know exactly how to define success in life. Make yourself aware what
accomplishment, success, and prosperity in general means to you in your life.
Some might define success having luxurious cars and huge mansion, whereas other
consider a life full joy and happiness with their family as true meaning of success.
Once you have figured out what is important for you personally you are able you
focus on your vision and goals.
Being successful means the achievement of the desired visions, plans and goals.
Furthermore, success can be a certain a social status that describes a prosperous
person that could also have gained fame for its favourable outcome. Do you think
what success is? Is it wealth? Is it happiness? Is it fame? Success can be defined in
many ways
If you are experiencing happiness, love, or adventure in this moment, you’ve already
found success. Keep it up.

Here’s another story!

Reading: THE STORY OF THE TWO WOLVES

The following
is an old Cherokee
Indian story that is
enlightening and
helpful.
One evening
an old Cherokee told
his grandson about a
battle that goes on
inside people. He
said, "My son, the
battle is between two
wolves inside us all."
"It is a terrible
fight and it is between
two wolves. One is evil
- he is anger, envy,
sorrow, regret, greed,
arrogance, self-pity,
guilt, resentment,
inferiority, lies, false
pride, superiority,
and ego." He
continued,
"The other is good - he is joy, peace, love, hope, serenity,humility,
kindness, benevolence, empathy, generosity, truth, compassion, and faith.
same fight is going on inside you - and inside every other person, too."

The grandson thought about it for a minute and then

asked his grandfather, "Which wolf will win?"
The old Cherokee simply replied, "The one you feed".

Time to Reflect

Downloaded by Aveeey April (aveeey1151@gmail.com)

 lOMoARcPSD|12510636

Knowing which wolf to feed is the first step towards

recognizing you have control over your own self.

Have you ever had thoughts, feelings or acted in ways

that were unacceptable to yourself but felt powerless to
control? The purpose of this story is to help you find ways to
manage your mind so that you can live your life more in
accordance with what your own judgment says is best for you.

As we grow up, we gradually become aware of the many

things in the external world which are largely beyond our
ability to control. These include other people in general and
most events in our lives. Initially this is difficult to accept, but
a more shocking realization is that there are many things
about ourselves that we seem powerless to control.

Some of these are our own thoughts, feelings, and

actions which unfortunately can be the source of much
distress. It may be thoughts such as “I cannot stop hating my
teacher for not giving me high grades.” It may involve an
emotion e.g. “My girlfriend left me and I cannot stop feeling
sad, lonely and unloved.”

It can also be in the form of a behavior such as the inability to control one's
craving for food such as cakes and chocolates.”

But are we indeed really powerless to control our own maladaptive

thoughts, feelings and actions? The grandfather’s answer "The one you feed" is
deceivingly simple.

The results of psychological research indicate that there are at least four
important concepts or ideas implied by the answer:

1. The mind is not the unitary entity it seems to us but consists of different
parts. For example in the story there are the two wolves and the “you”
that chooses between them.

2. These parts of the mind/brain can interact and be in conflict with each
other
i.e. the two wolves fight for dominance over our mind and behavior.

3. The “you” has the ability to decide which wolf it will feed.

4. Having made a choice, “you” can decide specifically how to “feed” or

nurture the selected wolf.
