Introduction
In this module, self-awareness is being highlighted. Since people

like you are in constant change where family, school, community and
others play a vital role, you have to be mindful on your strengths and
weaknesses.
Hence, self-evaluation is greatly needed nowadays, especially
during this time of pandemic. You need to assess what you have done so
far in terms of managing the kind of life you have now and how your
strengths and weaknesses helped in facing the challenges brought about
by the difficult situation.

Keep in Mind

You are now in Grade 12 which is the last level in basic education.
Hence, it would be important that you are aware on your adjustments as
a teenager in the different developmental aspects of personality. How do
you think you’re dealing with it?
A group of researchers led by Amanda Eller states that a balanced
person might develop an active role by interpreting the expectations of the
social actors from the home and work domains and from other institution.
It is where he/she studies and adopts boundaries with degrees of
permeability that enable a state of greater balance between the said
domains. When it comes to life, happiness, and well-being, there isn’t one
single area of life that we need to focus on. Instead, life is multi-
dimensional and dynamic.
The following dimensions will guide you on the areas to focus and
improve.
1. Physical. Your adolescence period is a good time for you to take more
responsibility for your physical health. You can learn to make healthy
food choices, be active, and engage in your own healthcare. It is highly
recommended that you have at least 60 minutes of physical activity
each day. Support from family and friends will help increase your
physical activity as adolescent. In addition, learning the healthy habits
like drinking enough water and eating enough fruits and vegetables, is
important to maintain your good nutrition. Valuing your physical health
by taking care of your body through the following: exercise regularly,
eat a healthy diet, maintain a healthy weight, get enough sleep, keep
up with vaccinations, brush and floss your teeth, and avoid listening to
loud music.
2. Mental. It is important for you to maintain good mental health habits,

including coping, resilience, and good judgment among your age group
to achieve overall wellbeing. It sets the stage for positive mental health
in adulthood. Mood swings, for example, are common during
adolescence. Some adolescents might experience a serious mental
health adjustment, such as depression and/or anxiety disorders, at
some point in life. That is why for a healthy mental aspect, you as an
adolescent must remember that talking about your feelings with a
trusted person can help. He/she could be a member of your family or
a close friend. Definitely he/she can support you in maintaining a
sound mind and positive outlook in every challenge as an adolescent.

3. Emotional. The adolescent healthy emotional development is marked
by a gradually increasing ability to perceive, assess, and manage
emotions. This is a biological process driven by physical and cognitive
changes and heavily influenced by context and environment. You
generally become more aware of your own feelings and the feelings of
others, but these perceptions may still be weak. You sometimes might
expect to keep your emotions from interfering with performance in
school, task and other activities, but doing so may be challenging in a
complex environment. You may be excited to take on new challenges
to become more independent, whereas others may need more support
to build confidence. The process of emotional development gives you
the opportunity to build skills, discover unique qualities, and develop
strengths for optimal healthy emotion.
4. Social. You as an adolescent must continue to refine how you relate

with others. Questions like “Who am I?” and “Who do I want to be?”
may direct you to have a deeper understanding of yourself. You may
adopt the values and roles that your parents expect from you and later
on develop your own identity that might be different from your parents
but similar with your peer group. This is common as peer relationships
can become a central focus in your life. It is recommended that you
build relationship with your peers through social interrelated activities.
You may establish healthy relationship with them through freedom to
be yourself, mutual respect of both people in the partnership, support,
privacy, boundaries and communication.
5. Spiritual. Religion has a strong influence to our country even up to

now. The teenagers who are guided and nurtured by a clear belief
system and spiritual activities are much less likely to go off the rails
during adolescence. The experiences and observations you have in
your spiritual aspect could continuously refine your belief system. It is
better to be surrounded by adults who can be your good role model
and a source of inspiration to improve your life direction than to be with
people who are very prone to be off-track in life.
Therefore, after internalizing the five dimensions of human

individual, it is important to include personal development plan to manage
your strengths and weaknesses.
A Personal Development Plan is an action plan for self-development

within the context of education, relationships, career, or for self-
improvement. It provides an awareness and reflection that will help you
set and reach personal goals and improve on various aspects of your life
across various life stages.
