Adriana Umana Psych 356 13 December 2015 Final Exam Much of what we know about human behavior has been known thanks to many psychology theories. Some of these theories have been developed by very well known psychologists such as Carl Rogers, B.F Skinner, Bandura, and Raymond Cattell.

A personal experience i had, is as a child in middle school i was put under so much pressure to be the same as my peers. Even though I wasn’t the same, or didn’t fit into their category. Yet I tried hard to be and always worried about what people would say. Later in High school i developed a Panic Attack disorder from the stress of middle school. I was forced to try and be someone i wasn’t that I didn’t know who i wanted to be, or who i really
Like everyone, I have weaknesses thats make me fall but, I also have strengths that help me get right back up. Spending nearly third-teen years in education not counting four plus years that will be spent in college, motivation is what will be need to get us threw the failures and help achieve our goals. Threw grade school and high school I thought of myself as a “slow learn”. I new I needed help but never asked for it. Reading “brainology” by Carol Dweck showed me I have a “fixed mindset”.
As a matter of fact, people who are also conformist also get judged no matter who you are, there is still going to be someone or something that is going to get picked on. By all means, if you’re conformist or nonconformist you’re still going to get judge. However you shouldn’t let anyone tell you want to do always remember to “Be who you want to be, not what others want to see” in other words, is to be yourself be unique, stay positive and believe in yourself Achieve what you haved conquer. In this passage “Comfortable with nonconformity” by Forrest Wang ,the author is suggesting that amid the crowd are the people who long to be different, to be entirely true to themselves and their ideals.
Usually in life, it is best for anyone to take a step back to the past and look at the big picture. No one could flatter himself that he is immune to the changes around him. Moreover, with all the demands that life can put on a person, sometimes it is easy to lose the essence of “me”. By losing this essence, the person could develop either a better version or a worse version of himself. Looking back at the beginning of this year (freshman year), I have been just that young soul eager to meet life’s challenges especially culture changing challenges.
When I was little I always tried to keep to myself; I never really wanted to be more than be an average student. I would go to school and would go home every day and never tried to do more. I never was a leader at that age; I was known to be kind and caring but I rarely took charged of a situation and always stayed in the background. It wasn’t until around 8th grade that things started to change, I began to realize that
I believe that by the time I get into high school, I will be ready for whatever my teachers and peers throw at me. I am working to improve myself every day and every day I get
I wasn’t put into snowboarding classes while still in diapers, I didn’t have parents who were able to teach me, I had to choose it all on my own at the age of thirteen. Because I wanted to learn something new and nobody was going to stop me. I still get upset at the feeling of “failing” which in fact is not failing, after all I have done to get their, I have done anything but fail. I still feel the shame that comes over me when I think I’m so much older than the other newbies and why can’t I get it if they can. But with the willingness and aim to do what I know in my heart I can do, I try just a little
Reaching goals and experiencing childhood dreams will lead you to a new level of excitement. One of Randy's childhood dreams were being a able to float in zero gravity, when a possibility of fulfilling the dream emerged he took the opportunity. After the experience he said "My experience was spectacular"(33). But more importantly his take away from the event was "if you can find an opening, you can probably find a way to float through it" (34). There was more than just experiencing and remembering floating.
I fear that more problems will progress as I grow up and there is only little hope that they will
Each person has been taught to hope, to have a dream. I always shot for the stars; I wanted to be a princess, obviously that didn’t work out though. As every individual ages his or her aspirations become more realistic; I aspire to have a stable job and a loving family. Having dreams is an important part of everyone’s lives.
At a young age, I constantly wanted to express myself through music. I always found a way to incorporate music into my daily life, whether it be by blasting my favorite music, creating my own funky songs, or even having the opportunity to participate in my elementary school choir. My love for music actually took flight after I had decided to join my elementary school choir, however, in my opinion, it is not the most transformative moment in my life. After elementary
My anxieties about being inadequate and mediocre and not being able to satisfy my patients could also affect my performance negatively because these doubts can lead to low self-esteem, low motivation and sense of self, and ultimately a poor performance. But in a developmental sense, these feelings can push me into becoming a competent clinician, in the fear of disappointing my patients and
I feel leadership, confidence, and academic motivation fall into a category that I often lack. At times I struggle to think outside the box and be creative. I am often the last to give my opinion in the classroom for the fear of being ridiculed and shy away from being forward, and instead try to mould myself into a people pleaser.
