Who am I?


              When you have a better understanding of yourself, you can develop good self-management skills making it easier
              to identify your strong and weak points. Think about things you enjoy doing, especially when asked to do it. You
              may enjoy sitting alone close to nature or making food for the family or lead a conversation in a group task or love
              to participate in a school cultural programme. This process of knowing yourself is the most challenging job. By
              putting time and effort you can take advantage of your strength and work on your weaknesses to overcome them.

              things are good for you and which path to choose to outshine yourself.

              You need to work on this and introspect yourselves so that you can use them, try them out and practice them.

                     ourselves we can          information, we can       will

                                                 ourselves

              Examples of strengths are:
                 • Focused in life                                    • Disciplined, Respectful, Versatile

                 • Emotionally very strong                            • Good interpersonal skills

              We all have strengths but we are not aware of them sometimes. Anything that energises you and gives you inner
              contentment brings out the true side of your personality. Identifying your strengths is a very time consuming
              process and if you are not honest in your introspection, then, you may not succeed in this mission.
