and divide Your gifts and share them to
others. Give us the power to overcome
challenges and root out the bad things in
our hearts. This we pray in the name of
Mary our mother and Jesus Christ, our
Lord. Amen
1. Heredity

Inborn traits passes on by the


generations of offsprings from both
sides of the biological parent’s
families
HUMAN
DEVELOPMENT is
influenced by:
KNOWING
ONESELF
Defining the “Self”
• Is the essence of a person: his thoughts,
feelings and actions, experiences, beliefs,
values, principles, and relationships.
• Includes a person’s life purpose, meaning,
and aspirations.
SELF-AWARENESS
• Is how an individual consciously know and
understand his or her own character,
feelings, motives, and desires.
• When you know yourself better, you are
more confident and creative, and you can
maximize your potentials to reach your
goals.
WAYS ON HOW YOU CAN DEVELOP SELF-
AWARENESS:
1. Identify your emotions. Realizing the connection between
your thoughts, feelings, and behavior allows you to deal
with them and respond effectively when they arise.
2. Recognize your strengths and weaknesses.
3. Keeping a journal or diary. You can track what is
happening in your life in a daily basis.
4. Practice mindfulness. Is being able to be fully present and
aware of what you are doing and where you are at a
particular moment, without reacting to much or being
overwhelm.
UNDERSTANDING SELF-CONCEPT

• According to Carl Rogers, a humanist


psychologist, self-concept is one’s idea
about himself/herself, particularly towards
his/her unique personality and own
perception about his/her set of values, point
of views, and behavior.
TWO CATEGORIES OF SELF-CONCEPT:
IDEAL SELF AND ACTUAL SELF
• The ideal self is the person that you would like to be.
• The ideal self is the idealized image you have developed
overtime. It could come from experiences, environment,
learning from your parents, and characteristics of your role
model.
• The actual self/real self is who you really are. It is your
real self that you see every day.
• If your real self is far from the idealized image/ideal
self, then you might feel dissatisfied with your life and
might consider yourself a failure.
• Additionally, self-esteem is a feeling of value or worth
that you have about yourself. Just how you see
yourself, so do others. It is easy to feel good about
yourself when you have a healthy sense of self-worth.
When you do not feel good about yourself, you are
less likely to appreciate your thoughts and opinions
and you are more likely to have low self-esteem.
IDENTIFYING STRENGHTS AND WEAKNESSES
• Every person has his/her own strengths and weaknesses. As part
of self-awareness, you should be able to identify these strengths
and weaknesses and use them to reach your potentials and
future goals.
• A strength is an activity that makes you feel strong or something
you are good at.
• A weaknesses is a particular thing or activity that you do not like
doing or you find hard to master. Meanwhile, you can improve
your weaknesses by doing something about them. How would
you able to do it?
• Remember, turning your weakness into
strength helps maximize your potential,
increase self-esteem, and enables you to
have a better appreciation of yourself.
EMBRACING ADOLESCENCE
• Adolescence is the period of transition between
childhood and adulthood. It includes some big changes
in the physical, cognitive, social, and emotional aspects.
It may include changes on how you look, how you take
responsibility, how you decide on your own, and how
you viewed yourself.
• Your experiences since childhood shape your unique
characteristics and habits that define who you are.
