Self-Reflection on Events

Trapped in a situation? Going in circles and can’t find a way out?

Try this self-reflection technique:

1. Think back over the past 3-5 years and identify an experience that was critical to your growth and development. Describe it.
2. Determine what made that event challenging.
3. What actions did you take?
4. What actions were effective? What was not?
5. What specifically did you learn?
6. What does the event reflect about you?
7. How can you leverage on your learning to further develop your capability?

You may write down your responses to the above on a piece of paper. Think it through and you might discover that hidden potential in you which can lead you to overcome your current challenges.
