Reflection:
In making my journal, I have learned how to assess myself by classifying what to input into my
real and ideal self. This activity made me realize that I have something to work on in the future
and personalities that I must let go of or change. Knowing yourself helps you to have a better
relationship with yourself and evolve your decision-making. Moreover, the Idea of CARL ROGERS
allows people to boost their self-worth and not to dwell too much on failures or what other
people think about you because, in the end, you know yourself more than these people's
opinions about you. It just takes time to really know yourself, including your desires, goals,
perspectives, and personality.
