Reflection Of Self Reflection

I am currently a student at the University of Texas at San Antonio for almost a whole semester now. I came to this school straight out of high school, not knowing what I was getting myself into. During my high school years, I was good at every subject except my writing class. Coming to UTSA, I knew I was going to struggle in my writing class, but that didn’t discourage me from not trying my best in the course. Going through the English program, I realized that I have some strengths and weaknesses in the class, and it encouraged me to do better. The essays I have written for this class demonstrate that I have developed a strong thesis, organization skills, and detail; however, I still need to improve on grammar, keeping the POV, and citing.

In 2013, an estimated 24.6 million Americans aged twelve or older (9.4% of the population) had used an illicit drug in the past month (NIDA, 2015). In 2016, about 3.6 million adults aged 18 or older received any substance use treatment in the past year, representing 1.5 percent of adults (SAMHSA, 2017). These numbers are not even taking into account any type of behavior addiction such as shopping, gambling, social media, etc. Strong of these numbers, as counselors we can see the importance to gain knowledge about drug and behavior addiction and its process. In order to have a better understanding of the process of change, we have been assigned to abstain from a substance or a behavior for a period of 15 weeks and to reflect about it.

As a learner in business school, I have steadily found the appropriate way to learn about master of commerce and even in my future career after signing up for the course in MGMT-5050, that is, throughout self-regulatory processes. According to Zimmerman (2000), self-regulation is a cyclical process and it indicates individual’s ability to formulate thought, feeling and actions that result in gaining individual’s goals utilizing some information that an individual has acquired from previous performances. Since I was a science student in my Bachelor degree, it is completely difficult for me to study in a new area in Master of commerce and I was not sure how to study. However, throughout taking compulsory course in MGMT-5050 I have learned the business-based case analysis from others successes and failures in CAWs and the approaches to learn in business from the perspective of teams and competitive advantages in SDWs. I would like to use Zimmerman (2002) perspective as references and my experiences combine with Gibbs’ reflective cycle (1988) or Johari Window (Luft & Ingham 1955) to demonstrate an informed view of my learning to date and my development for the future.

Social work education enables professionals to explain and define clients’ experiences, problems, and issues. The levels are micro, mezzo, and macro. For example, the micro level consists of age, gender, income, health, spirituality, emotions, and cognitions. The mezzo level includes neighbors, co-workers, local economy, resources, church, family, and work. The macro level refers to politics, economics, community, culture values, history, government services and resources, discrimination, and oppression (Rogers, 2016). Social workers use these levels to conceptualize clients’ problems (Rogers, 2016). These external analysis, overlaps and interact with each

Overall, I would classify myself as a generally healthy person. After going through the reading from the chapter, I can identify that some of these healthy characteristics are benefits of my environment and family history, while others have been established based off of promoting personal health. I know I personally avoid risk behaviors whenever possible, including smoking, using drugs, eating unhealthy foods, and consuming alcohol. Moreover, I take many preventative measures thanks to having a health education and knowing my family history, such as performing breast cancer checks and wearing sunblock daily.

For me, this semester was all about getting out of my comfort zone and learning what I am capable of accomplishing. In addition, I learned how to effectively work with a diverse team and what I can do to make our work little better. When I started this semester, I was afraid to make mistakes at work and class. However, when I realized if I wanted to grow then I cannot be afraid to make mistakes and allow it to control my actions. One of the big accomplishments I attained was accepting that I need to stop holding myself back and push myself forward. Ariel, I disliked doing some of the reflections for your class, but I am thankful that you forced me to write what was truly blocking me from accomplishing my goals. Writing it down helped me to see what I need to work on and what I need to do to strengthen my weaknesses and strengths.

This past semester in Modern III, I have found different things about myself in terms of shifting my movement vocabulary into something new. The somatic work in the beginning of class has allowed me to step out of my comfort zone and experience something new. Imagination has been a key factor in this. Three different goals that I have been working on this past semester have been keeping my abdominals engaged, my ribs to soften always, and allowing my transitions to flow smoother. As I mentioned in my midterm self-evaluation, I believe that I have come a far way from the beginning in the semester until now.

I have been asked to write this essay as part of my assessment for the ILM Level 3 course that I am undertaking. This essay is to show my understanding of Leadership; the different styles of leadership and the effects it can have on staff. I am currently not supervising any members of staff but I aim to show how I have led in different situations. I am completing this course for my own personal development, as I would like to progress further in my career, now that my children are older.

Early in the education process in becoming a clinician, I learned that understanding my own values and morals as well as my own biases are important in order to clearly conceptualize a client. I found it important to be self-aware of how the developmental, cultural, and familial aspects of my own life impacted my skills as a clinician. Working with adults, I felt I was able to decipher from my own views that I carried from those of my clients. I was at ease understanding that our views may be different but neither one view was wrong. Engaging in psychotherapy with children demanded a different type of emotional strength in me than when doing therapy with adults. I felt that my strengths and weaknesses as a clinician shined through

The ingredients that form the foundation for human development, according to the relational developmental systems paradigm, are positive relationships with the divine, others and the world. Using the Christian doctrine of the Trinity as a model for God's ideal plan for human nature, this model integrates theological principles with developmental science and psychology to demonstrate a framework of human development that encompasses the many stages of life from infancy to late adulthood.

The human identity provides individuals with a sense of self, and by examining one’s identity, questions such as “Who am I?” and “What is my background?” can be asked. While both questions don’t fully allow one to recognize who they truly are, they provide a useful starting point. Additionally, as one ages and experiences what life has to offer, the puzzle of one’s identity can be pieced together. Though the events of life have the potential to reinforce one with a positive sense of identity, they can do the opposite as well. When children are bullied, they feel worthless, for their identities are treated as such; conversely, when an individual is promoted at work, their identity as a hard worker is commended. In summary, our actions and

During the duration of this course and the numerous discussions initiated in lecture, I have been able to utilize the concepts proposed in class to further my intellectual development and thinking. While many concepts have been discussed in class, the topic of secondary witnessing was the one I could relate to the most. Just like Art Spiegelman, I am a second-generation witness to my father's life post-Vietnam war. I am a part of the generation that will continue to transmit my father's war stories to future generations. I am witness to the Vietnam war in terms of how it affected survivors, such as my father, even though I didn't live through that experience myself, tying in the concept of post-memory as well.
