                        Self-Exploration


                 Self-exploration means to know one’s calibre by analysing intellectual and spiritual capacities. It helps you to choose
                 your profession for life by developing a clear understanding of self-interests and needs. It also helps in achieving the
                 goal of life that we want to pursue. Let us learn about some approaches that may help people to self-explore.

                 Learning Formal and Informal/Self-Directed Learning
                 Formal learning means learning to develop skills from traditional educational institutions like school or university. For
                 example, knowledge gained through classroom learning. On the other hand, informal learning can be defined as the
                 method of learning from every day activities. For example, learning during trips organised by schools to historical places,
                 learning during summer camps, inter or intra school competitions like debate, etc.

                 Each type of learning whether formal or informal, helps to acquire some skills. Out of these skills, some may be preferred
                 skills, and may guide us shape our career. An attitude of continuous learning helps us to update ourselves with the
                 required skill set that keeps changing with the time.

                 Self-reflection/Inquiry
                 Self-reflection/Inquiry can be defined as a process of introspection where people discover themselves by going through
                 past experiences and observing patterns of their own behaviour.


                 Feedback
                 The suggestive input given by peers, family and mentors on our action is called feedback. It helps us identify our hidden
                 talents and strengths.


                        Team Work

                 A team is a group of people who work together to achieve a common goal. Each team has goals to achieve. The process
                 of working together in a group is teamwork. Everyone in the team plays an important role. Each individual in the team
                 is called a team member. Each team member needs to understand his/her role in the team.
