time, a lot of processing, and some behavioral changes to feel back to normal. For me, resilience takes the form of self-care, actively monitoring thoughts that could be harmful to moving forward, and asking for help. I think self-care is an integral part of being resilient. How can you learn to move past whatever trauma or event if you don’t learn to take care of yourself? For me, self-care looks like taking time to create. This gives me time to allow my mind to wander away from my current situation

Self Reflection Coming into college with no experience of any college classes, I was very clueless to how anything was going to work and what to expect. When I thought about taking composition one, all I thought was that it was going to be all writing papers. I was very wrong and this was far from true. Walking into this class for the first time, not one part of me expected to learn how to write papers through watching movies or through the in class activities we did. I expected to be given a

The last eight weeks have been quite a journey! My reflections of my experience include the two essays: “Self-Reflection Profile Essay”, the “Critical Analysis Essay”, and the final draft of my research paper “Puzzles and the Link to Problem Solving Abilities”.

Reflection on Self-Directed Learners “At the heart of self-directed learning is the notion that the learner takes control of his or her own learning (Merriam and Bierema, 2014).” According to the research done by Allen Tough in his book The Adult’s Learning Project, and cited by the Merriam and Bierema, 90% of adults in Tough’s study were engaged in a self-directed learning project and 70% of learning projects were planned by the adult themselves. “Subsequent studies have confirmed that upward

Self-reflective essay. “We should all have one person who knows how to bless us despite the evidence; Grandmother was that person to me” (Phyllis Theroux). I was thrust kicking and screaming into this world on the 26th of February 1997 in Auckland, New Zealand.

The purpose of this paper is to support Stosny’s (2010) advice that in order to create a healthy relationship, one must work to better one’s self and have more self-compassion.
Yifei H. 2106.03.31 Bad Girls Self-Reflections “As soon as I walked out my comfort zone and renewed everything in the States, I noticed that I was totally influenced by outside comments.” I wrote in one of my work ‘A Letter to my Daughter’ for this class, Bad Girls.

4.Intrapersonal Reflection: The Self with Others: The grey haired person who encountered me sounded suspicious and appeared wanting to know more about me than I would have wanted him to know. He also reflected an abrupt style of conversation and not wanted to share about himself. It appeared as if he was hiding something from me. On another note, the responses from the two security guards made me ponder why this grey haired person gave money to them, or other people? Was he trying to bribe them by

Self-Reflection In the middle of 8th-grade year, my Uncle Michael had a seizure and was put on life support. Even though the whole family knew that he had Kidney Failure and Diabetes, we prayed for a miracle. The whole experience happened rather quickly. In my family, it is our belief that if it is God’s plan let it be, so if it was His plan for my uncle to still be here, he would be. All of this happened a week before Thanksgiving, the time of the year when I should be thankful for

Reflection and Self Evaluation After collecting the data from the post assessment for the Magnet Unit, it is clear that students were most successful in meeting learning goal four (The student will be able to apply the special properties of magnets to move objects using a magnet).

Final Exam Self Reflection We have a read a few books this year and I have had very different opinions and interpretations on all of them. While there are instances where annotations can be helpful, such as the arduously worded novel, The Odyssey, I find that annotations take away from being able to enjoy the book for its content. I am one to have trouble analyzing the content when I focus more on the annotations I am taking. However, I am very strong in the concept of piecing the plot together

I can firmly claim this style as mine because of the openness observed in most

Confidence of Self Esteem Many people look into the mirror and instantly see flaws of a person they don’t like. Possessing shame and embarrassment or maybe even anger towards themselves. You can see it clearly staring back at you but you can’t touch it . You can hear it everytime you talk about yourself but you can’t put your tongue on it.

Leadership Self Reflection Leadership is found not just at work but all around us. In any situation, leaders take a step forward and take charge of the situation.

The process of going from “Madman”, “Architect”, “Carpenter” and “Editor” was a tremendously useful tool in the
from column 1 to 2 went down. I think this happened because I wasn’t being honest with my self and was thinking I was better then I actually was. I also think that I thought I had nothing to learn about myself. Also I might have not taken the scoring as serious as I did now. When it came to the self-motivation I was obviously not thinking correctly because at the beginning of the semester I had ZERO self-motivation, but taking this class and my other classes taught me that I have to start motivating

Narrative Self-Reflection Throughout GSW 1120 we practiced writing to different audiences compared to GSW 1020 and I could really feel the sense of the shift. The research essay was definitely the turning point where I noticed the biggest change, and I think this was because it’s an argumentative essay and that is where I feel like I excel the most. Counter arguing I would say is a weak spot in my writing. While I am writing a counter argument, for some reason I forget to include what I have to
