LESSON 3

DEVELOPING THE
WHOLE PERSON
DEVELOPING THE WHOLE PERSON

Developing oneself holistically may be the goal of everyone.


However, there are times that we lack awareness of our doings and
actions that leads to misunderstanding with others especially our
parents. This can also potentially lead to self-harm. To know oneself is
also quite challenging. To start picking the pieces of ourselves and
subsequently develop our individuality completely to be like an “ideal”
person is not easy.
• What’s New
• Teenage years give us unfamiliar feelings and put us in situations that form
our personal qualities.
• Activity 2: Let us see how well you can relate to the situations given. Discuss how you behaves when you
encounter these scenarios.
• Who would be responsible in developing one’s personality? Every
individual undergoes different phases of development that form his/her
individuality. Our personality is a product of genetic response that we inherit
from our parents and from the influence of our environment. This
environment shaped by the people around us, culture, and practices that we
are being raised in continuously creates social interactions and relationships.
This interaction contributes to who we are today and how we choose and
decide for ourselves. Personality development is complex administration of
thoughts, feelings, emotion, and behavior that influence personal judgement
• As a child, you are dream of a good and satisfying life when you grow
up. Your family becomes your helping hand in nurturing, guiding, and
educating yourself. When you reach adolescence, you experience
drastic changes in your physical
appearance, cognitive abilities, social relationship, and emotional
behavior. At this stage, our environment becomes part of our
development from which we acquire knowledge and collect
information to organize and interpret different life situations.
• According to Erik Erikson, adolescence stage of Psychosocial development, also
known as “identity vs. role confusion” is the stage wherein teens need to develop
the sense of self and personal identity. At this point, teenagers start to have circle
of friends in which they build their trust.

• Teenagers also experience adolescence cognitive empathy, known as “theory of


mind,” which is described as having high regards toward the perspective of others
and feeling concern for others.
• Being adolescents, they tend to foster social cooperation that prevents problems and leads to
avoidance of conflicts with peers. Teenagers are very careful in understanding the emotions of
their friends as they start to create deep trust with them. Sometimes, this leads to
misunderstanding with their family, abuse of prohibited drugs, pre-marital sex, cigarette
smoking and alcohol intake. Based on research, teenagers are commonly high risk-takers and
impulsive due to incomplete development of frontal lobe during adolescence. The frontal lobe
is responsible for judgement, impulse control, and planning. That is why they search for their
self-identify and independence which requires guidance from their parents, relatives, and other
people like teachers with whom they can share their struggles. These experiences and
challenges are part of a process of personality development that adolescents need to
understand. It is necessary for them to examine all the circumstances and opportunities so that
they can deal with them calmly. They must be open-minded to the opinion and advise of other
people in order to shape their future with broader perspective and self-determination.
• You cannot escape life challenges so you should know how
your thoughts, feelings, and actions in managing personal
agency should be handled. Being an adolescent, you should
be accountable for all your actions because these power triads
can either make or break your motivation to take charge of
life. It is up to you on how you will handle it. Remember,
your judgement is based on your views in life and it is rooted
on your upbringing
• Thoughts are impression activated by a stimulus in your mind
that is evident from the environment that you are in. This
conscious thought occupies emotions that give life to thoughts
and it expressed through feelings. Sometimes when you are too
emotional, you could not think properly because your emotions
occupy your thoughts, this means there is lesser space to
analyze the situation because feelings occupy it. Behaviors are
bodily reaction made based on our feelings that result to
actions.
• There are instances when feelings are faster than emotion and thought.
This would result to fast reaction and realizing the emotion and
thought afterwards. Either positive or negative, feelings result to
actions. Emotions can direct and control thoughts that sometimes
affect your consciousness. This can also lead to loss of focus. As a
teenager, it is very important to be focused on your goals. A focused
thought will lead to high intelligence. That is why if you are disturbed
with your emotion, try to figure out where the emotion is coming from
and it will bring you back to reality.
