Self-Assessment And Reflection


            
             Self-assessment requires one to reflect on his or her own special techniques that he or she needs to go thru life. I have found myself reflecting upon myself on several occasions asking myself why do I do things a certain way or what makes me do the things I do to achieve a task or goal I have, or others have created for me. .
             I have read several books and topics on what drives me the way I am, but the most interesting I have found has been The Six Thinking Hats by Edward De Bono. Within this book there are several types of personalities narrowed down into certain color of hats. I have found that this book assisted me into finding why I do the things I do to reach goals and tasks in life. Within the text the book there are the following types of hats:.
             1. White-A person is neutral and objective (De Bono, pg 54).
             2. Red- A person shows their emotion (De Bono, pg 78).
             3. Black- A person points out why something will not work (De B, pg, 108).
             4. Yellow- A person is concerned with positive assessment (De Bono, pg 133).
             5. Green- A person uses idioms of creative thinking (De Bono, pg 158).
             6. Blue- A person organizes the thinking (De Bono, pg 195).
             Within all the hats, I have found that I am a combination of blue and green. I am a person who enforces discipline and structure and I am always probing for alternatives. .
             With all of the above-mentioned hats in mind, I am seeking other individuals that will enhance my growth within other areas in my life that I am not as strong in. I feel that the working within teams will allow me to grow in this area. I am also hoping that by this growth within myself that I will be able to allow others within my team to grow in the areas they are weak in by sharing my strengths. .
             In order to grow with my team, there will times that I must stay focused. In order to achieve this task, I must stay relatively stress free. It is easy to say "staying stress free
             • but in reality a person, and a team, must work hard to ensure that all conflicts are resolved as they arise.
