Stay informed, Stay aware

If you are studying for a degree or looking for employment, to be successes full in both these areas you have to develop personal qualities. There are 5 main factors we should consider in order to develop these qualities
01.Self awareness and self evaluation
It's very important to be aware for your strength and weakness. by identifying these you can evaluate yourselves and figure out what you should do in order to improve yourself . in class sir handed out self evaluation form , i should mention that this was the same sheet we used to make airplanes on the previous day :) .this form helped us to see the areas we are stronger at and also the areas that we are weak. for me of course i realised that my people skills and personal qualities were better than the activity section . i also realised that there were somethings or skills that i never gave much attention to until now.well that was the purpose of the form to see things about yourself and realise what has to be improved.
02.Awareness of what is required
This basically means that we have to be aware of what if needed to excel at what we are doing. if it is regarding studying then its good to be aware of the syllabus of the subject, what level of studying is needed to pass the exam and to be aware of the competition that you are facing. if its at work then you have to know what skills the company expects you to have in order to be employed. so know where you are and only then you can figure out what you need to get to where you what to be.




03.Methods,organization and strategies.
Whether it at studying or working its important to figure out what methods,the way of organizing your work the the strategies suite you the most to achieve your goals. i know some people who need a well organized table and room for them to work in but i also know some people who can work well in a messy table. the same methods don't apply to everyone. following someones example may help you but you will be able to do a lot better if you figure out your on way after all there is nothing better that original.
well since there is a lot to write I'll put the 4th and 5th components  in the next blog :)
