As you can see from the title of my work, I’ve chosen to focus on the Gibbs reflective cycle as I feel like it’s the best model I can use to explain and show how I’ve used this throughout many experiences I’ve had in my life so far.
What is the Gibbs Reflective model?
The Gibb’s reflective model is a model which helps break down events or situations by taking an account of your personal feelings, and it looks to how your personal feelings helped influence the situation or event which took place at that moment in time.

Overall my key learning point I’ll take away from this event in my life is that sometimes you have to make sacrifices in order to get where you really want, and that you’ll have to account for your own emotions as well as emotions of others that can come into play when making big decisions in
