Self-Awareness: Personal Development

It is a known reality that the differences between animals and human beings are that animals were born well-developed abilities and skills but the human being born with potential abilities and skills to be developed by their volition and intelligence which are developed by time too. Intelligence is given to think and find better and right for themselves and volition is given to manage themselves in the right direction. Both of them are used to develop the abilities and skills when consciousness and intellectual level developed well enough.

In this respect, although human beings are responsible to develop their abilities, skills, and strengths, parents and teachers are responsible partners in this area. First, parents should provide the necessary environment and opportunities for children to understand and discover what kind of strengths they have.

Second, teachers should create an atmosphere in or out of a class where students with peers could perform their potentials. This social context will help students to develop their abilities and skills. These social atmospheres also provide students to share their social and emotional feelings with others that cause students’ happiness and well-being.
