Year End Self Assessment

Merry Christmas to every body. End of year is nearly there. This is the time for a comprehensive and in-depth self assessment.

I'm working now on the planning of this self assessment process and getting some thoughts about the best way of performing it.

In my personal opinion, it is a good chance to know further myself, my inner issues, to know my strengths and weaknesses and more importantly to know how to develop my personality in the positive direction further and further in the new year.

A key important part of our life should be dedicated to knowing ourselves. I believe millions and millions of persons who live and die without scratching even one inch deeper into their personality and they look to themselves with the other's eyes and other's perceptions or their subconscious self perception.

Self assessment is a great food for thoughts and rich of knowledge about the self and the life.

I want from this process to get better understanding about myself and what I want and to understand more my life.

Flash back of the whole year and self dialogue will uncover a lot of aspects of my personality and provide me good assessment of my performance throughout the year.


 

Self centered readings

I started to focus more my readings on the personal development and personal value added readings.
Fictional novels and literature became a luxurious in my situation.

I need to read what has a direct impact on my very personal life and has a material change on my live.

That doesn't mean that I undervalue the fictional or the other categories of readings. I still believe they could inspire indirectly a lot of great values in the personal life but the one has to project them more in his life.

I'm doing that as well. I project whatever I read on my own life and get value out of it.

It might be a newspaper article or whatsoever, it has value when I relate it to my life and use it to inspire me something useful in my own life.

Developing good habits - 02

 I'm still following my recently endorsed method of tracking the new good qualities and habits which I want to endorse and embed in my personality.
 Now I can quickly know which one of those qualities is progressing and which one is not.
 The gaps in my assessment table tells me straight away that I need to work more on the social communication and knowledge sharing.
 The method is really effective and it is inducing me to focus on my weaknesses to address them and to do actions about them.
 It has given a spark of enthuthiasm to blacken the boxes as quickly as I could because I believe in the ultimate reward of gaining numerous new qualities in my personalities and new good habits.

Developing good habits



 

 

 

 

Gaining a good habit takes a time. It requires to believe in its value and to resist your counter habits and to do it repetitively till it becomes organic part of your personality.

 

In a previous post "Personal Improvement through repetitive acts" I wrote that I started to track my effort to gain new good qualities and good habits in my life.

 

As shown above in the image, a table of the good qualities which I want to fully endorse and to embed them in my personality are listed in the first row. Each time I do any of them I blacken its corresponding box.

 

For instance, punctuality is listed there so whenever I attend my meetings on time or come to the work on time, I blacken its box.

 

The page includes about 50 boxes in each column. I believe whenever I will finish blackening all those boxes, I will gain a lot of good qualities and they will become more and more essential and organic part of my personality with less and less effort and with authentic believe backing them in my conscious.

 

I list above for example, punctuality, perfection, social communication, inner peace, discipline, productivity, etc,'

 

I can tell now from the visual inspection which ones are progressing and which ones which are still resistive to be gained.

 

This has started to give me further insights about myself and how those qualities are interlinked together as baggage so I need to address them as a baggage and help and support myself to gain them with additional supportive methods and change some of my life patterns.

 

It is a simple and effective method.

 

 

 

 

Excerpts from my motivation and self esteem boosting block note

My motivation self esteem block note is close to me all the time. It is my battery charging in life. I keep reading and writing in it to boost my energy and to overcome any suspected down moments.
It helps me to accomplish work and life tasks and boost my energy.

I have motivation block note since three years ago and it has become one of my essential mechanisms to overcome my low self esteem and lack of energy issues.

Let me read excerpts of my block note.

The life of my daughters depend totally on the accomplishment of this task.
This task is a death/life matter for my daughters.
This task is the most important thing in my life.
All my next life counts on this task.
(Talking to myself) You, who is addictive to loosing and the role model of the losers, stand up as a man and have some respect to yourself and achieve the XXX (I state here clearly the task to be accomplished).
Man , have some care to yourself and be something instead of total nothing.
You are disgusting person and scum and garbage bag. Get up as a man and do your responsibility.
Adel the loser has died for ever and his grave was berried deep into earth and he will never come back.
All my brain cells, my focus, my energy, my nerve system will be in this email to perfection it.

etc..etc..etc..

I've thick block note full of those boosting statements and I keep filling it.

As you see, I despise the loosing part of myself and state that clearly and detach my mind mentally from this part to face it.
I use exaggerated words to shock me and to awaken my senses.
I read frequently these statements before each task.
I believe those statements and damp any inner voice which creates doubts or disbelieves around them.
I believed them to the extent that those are the key reality in my life and otherwise was the illusion.
 

Personal improvement through repetitive acts

My daughters have asked me to drop them in the morning away from the school gate. They were urged from the school to walk to the school as part of school initiative to encourage the pupils to do more physical efforts and to urge the parents to park away from the crowd spots near by the school.

Each one of my daughter has  table to be filled with ticks for each time they walk to the school.
They urge me to increase their ticks and fill up the table.

This has inspired me - Please read the previous posts about the learning spirit and the inspirational attitude - to use the way to gain new qualities and habits in my personality.

In my motivational blocknote, I draw the qualities and the good habits which I would like to gain such as punctuality, deep insights in my work, creative ideas, initiatives, knowledge sharing, effective contribution in the meetings, problem solving, innovative ideas, ..etc...

Under each quality, I draw empty boxes. Each time I have deep insight in my work I check the corresponding box and each time I attend a meeting on time or come on time to my work I blacken the punctuality box.

My aim is simply to turn those qualities to a habit and to be organically embedded in my personality as an essential component of it and the subsequent act as a habit.

After this blog, I will blacken as well the box of the life reflection as one of my noted qualities there.

I've around 40 box to be filled. If I filled all of them, those initiated qualities will be transformed to essential building blocks of my character genetics and familiar habits.

The power of repetitive habits are stronger than the power of the conscious acting!

motivational doses

Everyday I charge up myself with motivation and self esteem doses from my motivation boosting blocknote.

I keep it always beside me on the office desk.

Whenever I found slack and lack of enthusism in myself I grab the blocknote and read my noted words and they urge me to accomplish the tasks.
