D - Describe Objectively What Happened

I was having friendaship conflict with one of my closet friends maily because of little things, for example getting an agreement on what to had for lunch. When we did not come to an agreement, she will be showing looks that makes me feel uncomfortable and I heard from other friends that she gossiped about me as well. Of course, I defended myself, but as I thought back now, I was actually gossping about her as well.

 

 

I - Interepret The Events

At first, I couldn't accept that feeling and I attempted to do the same way as she done to me. However, as time comes by, I realised that I am actually hurting myself more that ever. The more I say words that hurt her, the more I hurt myself. Then I realised I cannot repay evil through evil. I tried my best to reconcile but fail.

 

 

E - Evaluate What You Learned

I have learnt that I should only care the comments that is useful to my future. If the comments are really helpful for me in my life, then I'll take them up and try my best to change accordingly. If its not, then I'll ignore and move on with my life. Most importantly, it really change my mindset on how to see people, like not to take their words seriously, if not I will only hurt myself.

 

 

P - Plan How This Learning Will Be Applied

I believe this experience will equip me to face my work life. As I have heard from various working adults, these experiences will repeat themselves again. All I have to do is to be able to stay strong, accept the reality and keep fighting. In terms of my course, these experiences help me to appreciate my friends more as I realised that everyone has their own weakness.

 

 

Reflection on what I've learnt througout the year 

I have learnt a lot through this semester in this module, Personal Development. This is because I have learnt on how to plan on ways to achieve my goals and I get to know myself well through SWOT Analysis as well. Through this, I truely know my strength and try my best to use my strength to cope my weakness in order to avoid treats and widen up my opportunities. It helps me to look further in future because I know what I want. It directs my focus to achieve my objectives with full determination as well. Therefore, I get to develope myself and will not neglect what is important for me to achieve my targets in future.
