B. DISCUSSION
Read the following text closely, then, do the tasks that
follow.
The five aspects of life are given a situational example in the previous
activity for you to be aware and determine which aspects need to work on for
improvement. Here are the five aspects of personal development: 1) physical, 2)
mental, 3) Emotional, 4) Social, and 5) Spiritual.
Points to Ponder:
Holistic development is not an
overnight project that someone has to
undertake but rather this is a critical
process which someone has to
undergone stages by stages. It is
believed by a known psychologist that
whatever personality you have as an
adult is a product of self-development
1
from childhood up to the present. Self-
development includes different
5
aspects which include physical,
Source: (Fotolia, 2017)
Physical
Body is the most important aspect as it binds all other factors. As it is said,
“A healthy body is a healthy mind” and “health is wealth”. This is basic for
success.
It is said that if you are presentably looking you have an edge for a lot of
opportunities. This is the reason that makes many people to be focused on their
physical appearance. It might be true, but an oddly looking person can even be
happy and successful by enhancing what qualities that they already have like
intellectual, good behavior, public relations and so others. The physical concern
of a person is simply referred as concern on a tangible aspect of self-
development.
Mental
6
Our intellectual ability helps us resolve even a difficult problem at
immediate cause. Yet, everyone has the ability to do so but learning and thinking
would improve our reasoning that will lighten our future.
Emotional
It’s important that we continue to use our brains to learn new things and
challenge ourselves, especially as we get older. Education makes you a better
and more well-rounded person overall, and it’s an essential component to all
self-improvement.
Social
Whether it’s in the real world or on the internet, the same basic rules
apply to all healthy and positive relationships: be kind to others, treat them with
respect, listen to their viewpoints, and don’t respond by attacking or insulting.
(Handel, 2009) If you practice these attitudes, you will have happiness.
Spiritual
Many refer to this area as religion. But, it is not simply means that way but
rather this means your real purpose of life. This also includes conscientiousness
which means likely to be organized, systematic, careful, thorough, responsible,
self- disciplined, and achievement-oriented.
Believing that life is good, and that everything happens for a reason. Even
if it is a positive or negative experience, you learned lesson from it. You should
value it as it molds your personality.
Religion believes that the purpose of the human life is to serve the creator
of all things. Several theories in psychology propose that we ultimately give
meaning to our lives. Whether we believe that life’s meaning is pre-determined
7
or self-directed, to grow in spirit is to realise that we do not merely exist. We do
not know the meaning of our lives at birth; but we gain knowledge and wisdom
from our interactions with people and from our actions and reactions to the
situations we are in.
As we discover this meaning, there are certain beliefs and values that we
reject and affirm. Our lives have purpose. This purpose puts all our physical,
emotional, and intellectual potentials into use; sustains us during trying times;
and gives us something to look forward to---a goal to achieve, a destination to
reach. A person without purpose or meaning is like a drifting ship at sea.

Case study
Problem usually come and goes as part of the life aspect. Everyone
experiences problem but in different degree. Sometimes, even persons with
similar problem have different degree of effect on each individual.
The situation might be difficult but I do not let pain transform itself into
fear. Look at what you‟re looking at. Don‟t wrap yourself up with all the
negativities of the world. In building self-esteem, we must learn how to make the
best out of worst situations.
No other thing that I can do but to live my grandparents and move on. Just

experience as a motivation to improve yourself. Work on with the dreams. Have
