    Jenica Aira
    A fully functioning person is aware of and accepts their experiences without defensiveness. They trust their own judgment and abilities, living fully in each present moment without prejudice. Such persons feel free to make choices according to their own values. As environmental conditions change, fully functioning people are creative and adaptive without feeling a need to conform. While they experience difficulties intensely, fully functioning is considered a direction rather than a destination.

    1) Fully functioning persons are aware of their experience:

    A fully functioning person is that who accept both negative and positive
    experiences avoid to use defensiveness and self-protection. By this
    person aware in actual what happens and less react like knee jerk way.

    2) Fully functioning persons trust in their own organism (self):


    Self-trust is most important element of a fully functioning person. It is
    about judgment and use of own ability appropriately in any given
    situation. Believe on your own sense of value and moral.

    3) Fully functioning persons live fully and richly in every moment:


    Live in present moment is best quality of a person. In this way person
    touch with different life experiences and aware from what is happening.
    This thing save person to make prejudice and misconception. This
    requires us to develop a degree of mindfulness and live each moment
    fully.

    4) Fully functioning persons feel free to make choices without
    constraints or inhibitions:
    When a person trust on his internal process and aware from his external
    behaviors than a greater ability of freedom of choice develops in person.
    By have this ability person take agency on their decisions and behavior
    and take decision according to his value and in light of right and wrong.

    5) Fully functioning persons are creative and live constructively and


    adaptively as environmental conditions change:
    With the develop of self-trust and freedom of choice a person become
    more creative. As Rogers’s points out, we can also be more creative in
    the way we adapt to our circumstances without feeling a need to
    conform to norms and value that conflict with our own. Because creative
    thinking and risk taking is feature of a person.

    6) Fully functioning persons may face difficulties:


    A full functioning person experience joy, happiness, pain, love,
    heartbreak, and a lot of difficulties more intensely. When we numb is
    known as negative emotion, we numb everything. A full functioning
    person opens his self to face all type of good, bad challenges.

    7) Being fully functional is “a direction, not a destination”:
    Roger’s belief is that when people have a congruent view of themselves
    (i.e., one in which their self-worth, self-image and ideal self-overlap
    rather than exist as separate entities), even aggressive needs are
    matched by an intrinsic goodness within the person.

    Yes, we can say that fully functioning person is self-actualized because Self-
    actualized people accept themselves and others as they are. They tend to lack
    inhibition and are able to enjoy themselves and their lives free of guilt. Not only
    do self-actualized people fully accept themselves; they also embrace other
    people for who they are.

    Even though life may be difficult, still we find meaning and joy to it, this
    makes us special.
