For my nutritional needs I finally have to be careful of what I eat, more proteins, less sugar.
As to the social activism...hmm...I am not so sure how I can work on that one. I will take suggestions. As to my conative, the motivational part, well, I have to check my motives every now and then when I am doing something, or say something. Why am I saying it? Why am I really doing it? I think these three, or at least two of them, the nutrition and motivational aspect go hand in hand - if I find the right motivation for eating healthier, then I catch two flies. I was surprised at how well I am doing with the interpersonal aspects! Maybe it has to do with the fact that I am not in a relationship right now. No wonder I can do good. But I can see it also with my children, that I am improving. Love and kindness can really change lives. At least it does for me.

Outstanding! I'm glad to see that it is working for you as well. Congratulations on making the decision to eat healthier. What ever you do, keep it up. It all starts with one good habit then it leads to another. Before you know it everything will turn around for you.

Wow! This was a hard one for me too, I discovered that I'm SELFISH!!! All the one's about interpersonal and worldly were low... Anyway I think with the conative line of psychospiritual I know that if you practice having a witnessing mind around your emotions it should help. That is something I have been working on for a couple months now, before this class actually, and I have found that my motives change from that reactive fear to more of an intentional place. I'm not motivated by wisdom just yet, but I like to think I'm getting there. :) Good luck your assessment looks great, keep up the good work!

It is really something when you have learned to stop and question your motives about why you do and say something it makes you take a look at yourself in a different light. I also find myself observing others motives and listening to my inner voice that I used to ignore.
ReplyDeleteGreat post!! I am glad to see this is working for others in class and I hope it will continue to help you reach your goals.
ReplyDeleteIt is always nice to figure out were we need work. Questioning the world around us is great too.
