 Module
Developing of the Whole
2 Person

Aspect of the self is simply stated as an individual is composed of three basic,

but very different aspects of the se lf. They are the physical or tangible aspects as
they relate to the body, the intellectual and conscious aspects as they relate to the
mind, and the emotional and intuitive aspects as they relate to the spirit. All three
aspects of the self-work together in perfect harmony when attention is paid to all
three simultaneously.

When you reach the end of this lesson, you will be able to know the importance
of each aspect of the self of a person. You will be able to explain each aspect and why
there is a need to develop of each aspect. You will learn how to evaluate your own
thoughts, feelings and actions. You will also understand the connection of your
thoughts, feelings and actions to actual life situations.

What’s In

Activity: ASSESS ASPECTS OF YOUR DEVELOPMENT Draw a large circle on a

blank sheet of paper. Divide the circle into 8 segments. In each segment, write
some descriptions of the different aspects of yourself as follows:

1. Physical Self. Describe yourself. Try not to censor any thoughts which come to
your mind. Include descriptions of your height, weight, facial appearance, and
quality of skin, hair and descriptions of body areas such as your neck, chest,
waist, legs.
2. Intellectual Self. Include here an assessment of how well you reason and solve
problems, your capacity to learn and create, your general amount of knowledge,
your specific areas of knowledge, wisdom you have acquired, and insights you
have.
3. Emotional Self. Write as many words or phrase about typical feelings you have,
feelings you seldom have, feelings you try to avoid, feelings you especially enjoy,
feelings from your past and present, and feelings which are associated with
each other.
4. Sensual Self. Write how you feel as a sensual person. What sense do you use
most – sight, hearing, speaking, smelling, touching? How do you feel about the
different ways you take in information - through the eyes, ears, mouth, nose,
pores, and skin? In what ways do you let information in and out of your body?
5. Interactional Self. Include descriptions of your strengths and weaknesses in
intimate relationships and relationships to friends, family, co-students and

5
 strangers in social settings. Describe the strengths and weaknesses which your
friends and family have noticed. Describe what kind of son or daughter, brother
or sister you are.
6. Nutritional Self. How do you nourish yourself? What foods do you like and
dislike? What do you like and dislike about these?
7. Contextual Self. Descriptors could be in the areas of maintenance of your
living environment: reaction to light, temperature, space, weather, colors, sound
and seasons and your impact on the environment.
8. Spiritual Self or Life Force. Write words or phrases which tell about how you
feel in this area. This could include your feelings about yourself and organized
religion, reactions about your spiritual connections to others, feelings about
your spiritual development and history, and thought about your metaphysical
self. Think about your inner peace and joy. Think about your spiritual regimen
or routine.

Activity Output: Personal Assessment of Aspects of Development with Plan of

Action

Write about the eight segments of your development. What are the words or
phrases which represent aspects about yourself which you like? What are the items
which you consider to be weaknesses or areas for improvement? What words which
are neutral or factual, such as “5 feet 4 inches tall, 120 pounds”? Do some categories
have more minus than plus areas? The larger proportion of minus to plus areas you
have, the more effort will be needed to achieve positive self -esteem. If the vast
majority of your minus responses are in one or two areas, your self-esteem is likely
to be good but has a few self-estimates which need to be improved. Name some ways
in which you can improve the minus areas and further enhance the positive aspects.

Have you been rejected or disappointed time and time again? Well , Colonel
Harland Sanders, founder of Kentucky Fried Chicken, did. But he took his failures
and didn't just make lemonade -- he made the world a better place

Inspiring life story of KFC's Colonel Sanders

Sanders was born in 1890 in Henryville, IN. When he was six years old, his
father passed away leaving Sanders to cook and care for his siblings. In seventh
grade, he dropped out of school and left home to go work as a farmhand. Already
turning into a tough cookie.

At 16, he faked his age to enlist in the United States army. After being
honorably discharged a year later, he got hired by the railway as a laborer. However,
he got fired for fighting with a coworker. While he worked for the railway, he studied
law--until he ruined his legal career by getting into another fight. Sanders was forced
to move back in with his mom and get a job selling life insurance. And guess what?
He got fired for insubordination. But this guy wouldn't give up.

In 1920, he founded a ferry boat company. Later, he tried cashing in his ferry
boat business to create a lamp manufacturing company only to find out that another
company already sold a better version of his lamp. Poor guy couldn't catch a break.

It wasn't until age 40 that he began selling chicken dishes in a service station.
As he began to advertise his food, an argument with a competitor resulted in a deadly
shootout. Four years later, he bought a motel which burned to the ground along with
his restaurant. Yet this determined man rebuilt and ran a new motel until World War
II forced him to close it down.

Following the war, he tried to franchise his restaurant. His recipe was rejected
1,009 times before anyone accepted it. Sander's "secret recipe" was coined "Kentucky
Fried Chicken", and quickly became a hit. However, the booming restaurant was
crippled when an interstate opened nearby so Sanders sold it and pursued his dream
of spreading KFC franchises & hiring KFC workers all across the country.

7
 After years of failures and misfortunes, Sanders finally hit it big. KFC
expanded internationally and he sold the company for two million dollars ($15.3
million today). Even today, Sanders remains central in KFC's branding and his face
still appears in their logo. His goatee, white suit and western string tie continue to
symbolize delicious country fried chicken all over the world.

At age 90, Sanders passed away from pneumonia. At that time, there were
around 6,000 KFC locations in 48 countries. By 2013, there were an estimated
18,000 KFC locations in 118 countries. WOW.

If you're overwhelmed by rejection or discouraged by setbacks, remember the

story of Colonel Harland Sanders. Fired from multiple jobs, ruined his legal career,
was set back by the Great Depression, fires and World War II, yet still created one of
the largest fast food chains in the world. Sanders wouldn't let anything or anyone
defeat him. We should all be more like Colonel Sanders (besides the fighting and
getting fired part).

Processing Questions:

Share your insights and answer the questions in a separate sheet.

1. What is the story all about?
2. How did Colonel Sanders handled his numerous rejections?
3. What made Colonel Sanders successful?
4. How do you feel about this quotation? Explain your thoughts.

 What is It

The self-concept is represented by several aspects of the self. It is conceived

as collection of multiple, context-dependent selves. This construct believes that
context activates particular regions of self-knowledge and self-relevant feedback
affects self-evaluations and affect. A deeper look on the different aspects of self can
identify specific areas for self-regulation, stability and improvement.

Many individuals put a strong emphasis on the physical aspect of the self. The
body is tangible, obvious, and we respond to it easily. More time and money is spent
on enhancing the physical component than either of the other two aspects. This does
not mean, however, that the body is healthy or strong. The body provides a place to
house the spirit (often experienced as feelings) and the mind (often experienced as
thought).

It may be important to some that their mind be prominent and well educated.
The mind is important, as it is the part of the self that directs the other two aspects.
The mind learns what to do and communicates the information to the body and the
feelings. What the mind believes, the body manifests or acts on, and the emotions
feel, or respond with. People store both healthy and destructive thoughts and beliefs
and responds to life's circumstances in the most prominent manner. The mind
provides access creativity and serenity which are necessary for such processes as
prayer, forgiveness, acceptance, and passion.

The human emotions are the most feared aspect of the self, as individuals are
reluctant and unprepared to manage them. Managing feelings is like trying to hold
water in the palm of your hand. They are illusive and deceptive. A decision made
under emotional stress and strain usually impacts emotions negatively. Negative
emotions that are not managed are stored and repressed. Repression is destructive
to a content self since all feelings, not only negative ones are stored away. Accessing
feelings when they are needed now becomes difficult, leaving the individual numb
and hopeless.

Readings: THE STORY OF THE TWO WOLVES

An old Cherokee is teaching his grandson about life:

“A fight is going on inside me,” he said to the boy.” It is a terrible fight and it is
between two wolves. One is evil–he is anger, envy, sorrow, regret, greed, arrogance,
self-pity, guilt, resentment, inferiority, lies, false pride, superiority, and ego.”
He continued, “The other is good – he is joy, peace, love, hope, serenity, humility,
kindness, benevolence, empathy, generosity, truth, compassion, and faith. The same
fight is going on inside you–and inside every other person, too.”
The grandson thought about it for a minute and then asked his grandfather: “Which
wolf will win?”
The old Cherokee simply replied, “The one you feed.”

The story lays out a battle is happening inside us all, a battle that will be won
by the side which is given the most attention. We've all seen the picture of an angel
on one shoulder and a devil on the other, that was probably the version you received
growing up in the modern Culture, especially in America.

The version the natives used was of two wolves that live within man, one light
and one dark. The reason I like this version better is it focuses more on acceptance
of what is and how to deal with it rather than resisting what is and having to deal
with the consequences of that. Instead of trying to conquer the devil inside us which
I feel only makes it stronger, we should cultivate compassion for the angel inside
which will lead to more understanding.

Don't get me wrong we have a need for both wolves that's why they are there,
we just need to be mindful how these two aspects of ourselves manifest in our lives
and that has to do with how we treat ourselves ultimately. It kind of goes with the
saying focus on what you want, not on what you don't. Anyway here is the story, as
I heard it before.

The Power of Triad: thought, feelings and action

The STORY OF THE TWO WOLVES gives rise to a number of questions. Let
us share our thoughts, feelings and opinions on the following questions. By taking
time to do this, you will learn to better manage your mind, feelings, and actions and
consciously feeding the good wolf in you.

 How aware are you of the two different opposing “wolves” operating within
your mind, one of which leads to pain and a diminished sense of life and the
other to a joyous, meaningful, and fulfilling life?
 When was the time you feel disappointed by the choice of behavior because
you knew that there was a more positive option but you just didn’t choose it?
 What ways or techniques or exercises do you use to strengthen yourself so as
to increase its potency to choose and hence control your life?
 In what specific ways do you feed the negative wolf?
 What specific ways do you use to feed the positive wolf?
