Improving Personal Skills for Better Work

This assignment outlines a student's personal objectives for improving their skills in three areas: patience, decision-making, and time management. The student aims to develop self-control over anger and mood swings through meditation classes and stress-relieving workshops. They also plan to work on time management by creating a rough plan before starting work, using time management classes, and taking feedback from coworkers. The student sets short-term goals for the next four months, medium-term goals for two to three years, and long-term goals for three to five years.

Evaluation and Reflection

Task1a
Introduction
One of the best ways of learning things is through personal reflection. This is because we
learn best through our experiences. It is one of the best ways to transform the work based
experiences into learning. One of the very common features in the professional fields is that,
while the employees are working within the office environment, they tend to learn things through
their activities. In other words, they know that they must operate within the same environment
and will have to face many challenges within the due course of time. The workers are bound to
face many external and internal challenges in their work life. So, it is through the assistance of
their experiences and their self-reflective methods that they will either find some ways to either
fight and overcome those challenges or get succumbed to it. Self-reflection also helps them to
develop the attributes of self-control and self-surveillance (Travers et al., 2015). So, it can be
said that the employees at the work fields are usually plating a double role that of workers and of
learners as well. Using the self-reflection and the self-regulation methods also help in making the
individual aware of his or her own personal strengths and benefits. This, in turn, is very helpful
as the individuals get to know one's own limitations and one's own strengths as well. They are
then able to nurture their strengths and start working on improving their negative points. I have
selected the Gibbs Reflective model as I feel that it is the most simple and useful model that will
help me to earn through experiences.
Analysis
I will get to know about my own traits from the events that I have passed through. This is
because I believe that one can best learn from the situations that one has been through (Lucas

and Leng Tan 2009). I find this model to be different because it is the method of learning by
doing. I have seen this from my own experience that I am very empathetic and caring in nature. I
cannot really see people in pain. I always try to make sure that I am extending my helping hands
towards them and helping them with all the possible resources that I have. However, there are
also many weaknesses in me that I want to overcome. As per my perception or my inferences
from the from the PPDI modules, some of my weaknesses are lack of patience, lack of proper
time management skills an also losing my self-control over my anger. I aspire to work on them
and solve them within a given time.
Figure1: Gibb’s self-reflective model
Source: (Potter 2015)

One of the things that I learned from the PPDI is that I am empathetic in nature.
Description
Once, one of my colleagues was unable to do the project that we were assigned to the
office. I could understand that he is having a lack of concentration and he could not really work
like the other normal days. Though he was not willing to share I asked him and got to know that
he was having some financial problems at home.
Feelings
I could feel that he was sad and tensed. I placed myself in his own position and realized
that he was in a tough time.
Evaluation
I felt very sorry for him and I made up my mind to help him. I did his work for him and
did not take any money in return. He was offering me his salary as I did the work for him but I
didn't take it as in wanted him to use it for himself and his family. However, many of the
colleagues said that this was unethical and unprofessional and I must not help anyone in this way
(Thong, 2015). However, I could not really stop myself from helping him.
Analysis
Analyzed that I cannot really restrain my care and affection for someone around me who
is in need. So, if someone is in need I will use all may resources to help him out.

Conclusion
So, I conclude that I will continue being empathetic towards people around me who are in
need but at the same time I will also have to abide by the office ethics if the person I am helping
is any of my office mates.
Action
My actions would be to keep in mind that I also must abide by the office ethics and I
must not do something unprofessional. So, if such situations happen in future, I will try to help
people in different ways (Travers et al., 2015).

The other thing that I learned was that I often become extremenly angry and cannot
control the anger.
Description
One of my juniors took a leave without informing the management. A very important
meeting was scheduled on that day. So, when I came to know that he took an uninformed leave I
could not keep my calm.
Feelings
The feelings that I had was that of that of extreme anger. I immediately called him up
and talked to him in a rude manner. I misbehaved with him for his action. Though I never wanted
to hurt him for the moment I could not really keep my calm. It was after misbehaving with him
that I came to know that he had a sudden attack of asthma and so he could not turn up. After
knowing this, I felt sorry for him and was ashamed of my behavior. So, I personally met him and
cleared the confusion. I also extended his leave so that he could get better and take rest at home
for some more days.
Evaluation
My evaluation was that this event had both positive and negative effects. The negative
effect was that I lost my control over my temper and behaved with him in a very rude manner..
Analysis
This created a very bad impression about me among my colleagues and my co-worker.
The positive impact was that I could make him understand that though he was very sick for

which he needed a leave, it was also a kind of a lesson that no employees must break the official
rules
Conclusion
They are the employees of the organization and so it is their duty to make sure that they
are abiding by all the official rules and regulations (Boud and Walker, 1998).
Action
My action in the future days during such situations will be to keep a control on my anger
and handle the situation in a calm manner. I must not lose my control over my temperament.

The other thing that I learned was that I suffer from lack of patience.
Description
Once there was a very important project that had to be completed in a week’s time at my
office. I had to make a huge preparation in order to complete the work.
Feelings
I was suffering from this feeling that I will not be able to complete it within time. So, I
wanted to finish it before the deadline itself. I worked hard all day long and even worked after
my shift timings. I did overtime and somehow finished it within three days. However, when the
project was checked, there were many mistakes and errors that had hampered my performance
and my appraisals as well.
Evaluations
I had both positive and negative evaluations of this event. The positive evaluation was
that I had more confidence in my speed. I knew that I could finish my work fast.
Analysis
The negative evaluation was that I have the chances of hampering my own performance
due to this impatience. It is because I hurried so much that I did many mistakes in the project.
Conclusion
So, I concluded that I must not make haste and must deal with all the things very
patiently.

Actions
The actions that I will take in the future days are thatI will always try to maintain my
patience level. I will never be puzzled or impatient. I will make sure that I am taking time and
then proceeding with my work. I am a good observer and a good listener, I have the speed and
the potential to work with accuracy. The one thing that can obstruct me is the lack of patience.
This will ruin all the hard work that I might put into the work. So, I will have to deal with all my
works patiently.

Conclusion
Thus, I can conclude that I have gathered some new knowledge from this. One of the
special qualities that I have is my empathetic and caring nature. This is a positive aspect that I
must always nurture the same. I will make it a point that I am always being able to care about the
interests of my friends, family and my co-workers as well. I will make sure that keep a control
over my temper. I will thus incorporate several changes in my behavior. I will take frequent
breaks from work and take a walk outside the office whenever I feel angry and frustrated. This
will help me to divert my mind and to refresh myself for some time. This will help me to restore
my mood and I will be able to control my anger as well. I will also take some physical exercise
classes like yoga and jogging that will help in checking the anger. Apart from this, I will also
have to work on my patience level. I will have to become much more patient. I will have to give
up my anxiety and my lack of patience. I will make a rough sketch before starting with any work.
This will help me to carry on with the work in a step by step and systematic manner. This will
also help me in proper time management skills and I will no longer have this feeling that I will
be unable to finish work within the assigned time. Thus, if I bring these changes within my
routine and within myself then I will be able to work on my drawbacks and improve them.

Task 1b
Introduction
Self-reflection and self-evaluation are the most effective ways of gathering self-
sufficiency in the professional grounds. These methods help in gathering different ways of tactics
that help individuals to face the different challenges that they come across in their professional
fields both internally and externally. The models that have helped me in gaining knowledge
about my own personality are as the Gibbs model, the Kolb's model and the board's model. I
believe that the best ways to analyze my behavior is learning through situations. I learned about
many of my traits, both good and bad in the PPDI model and I analyzed it through different
reflective models like that of the Gibbs model, the Kolb’s model and the Boud’s model.
However, I have got both the positive and the negative aspects of my traits and my behaviors
from the different evaluation stages of the different models. Some of the negative traits that I
have come across are the lack of patience and frequent fits of anger. Similarly, some of the good
traits that I have come across are the empathetic and the caring nature that I have. For an
instance, it may apparently seem that being a very caring and empathetic person makes me very
special among all my co-workers, it is true but the evaluation that I have come across is that
there are instances when people can take the undue advantage of the caring and the empathetic
nature and this might turn out to be quite harmful to me (Gould and Taylor, 2017).
Analysis
I will be talking about one of the situation that happened when I was at office. I will be
describing this through Gibb’s model. I will be talking about one of the situation that happened
in my workplace. The description of the event is that I was in charge of one of the group projects

and I was leading a team of five members. A very important meeting was scheduled on a certain
working day (Potter, 2015).
After coming to the office, I came to know that one of the teammates was absent without any
prior information. I was extremely angry and the feeling that I had that time was that of anger.
I lost my temper and called up that employee instantly, I scolded him in a very rude manner.
Then I came to know that he was suffering from a severe attack of asthma and so had to take a
sudden leave. After listening to this I was feeling sorry for him and I extended his leave as well.
This created a very bad impression about med among all the employees because they thought
that being a leader, it was my responsibility to deal with this matter with a cool temper. I must
have not behaved so rudely with the employee. This was the negative evaluation of this event.
However, there is also this positive influence that I could maintain the office ethics and
explained the same to that employee. I had to explain it to him that being an employee he is
responsible and answerable to the organization as well. However, I also concluded from the same
that I also need to keep a control over my anger. I must not lose my calm. At the same time, I
also came to know that being a little strict is also needed in the official fields as I need to make
the employees abide by the rules and regulations of the office. So, my actionwill be to make sure
that I try to keep a control over my anger. One of my positive traits is my caring and empathetic
nature. I will explain this through the Kolb’s model(Kolb, 2014). The concrete experience was
when one of my colleagues was much tensed and was not able to perform well in the office. He
was not being able to concentrate on the work as he was having some financial issues at home.
He was unable to deliver the work with his usual potential. So, I placed myself in his position
and I could then imagine his situation. I really felt very sorry and I said that I would do the work

for him. I did his portion of the work and then I also refused to take any money for it. Though
then offered me his salary but I did not take it and asked him to use it for his family.
The abstract conceptualization about this model is that being caring towards friends and
colleagues are necessary but at the same time, I must not be carried away by emotions at the
work fields. What I did for him was good but it was unethical and unprofessional. Most of the
other employees did not see it in a proper way. They saw it as my favoritism or biases. So, my
active experimentation will be to make sure that if such situations arise in future then I must not
get overemotional, rather I must be practical enough. If any such thing happens again, and then I
will try to help that person in a different way or by lending him some money, I will not be doing
his work on his behalf inside the office premises as it means it signifies violation of the office
rules and the office ethics.
The third model that I will be using is the Boud’s model. I have noted another negative trait
within me that I lose my patience very easily. This experience I have, had a project to be
completed within a period of about a week. I knew that I had time to complete the work but I
was very impatient. I thought that I will not be able to finish the work within the given deadline.
I was feeling very anxious, I thought that all the other employees will be finishing the work and I
will be left behind. So, I made sure that I finish the work as soon as possible. I hurried a lot and
then finished the work only within a time span of two days. However, when the project was
checked there were many errors in the work that I have overlooked. I could have easily avoided
these errors. Though this was a negative point the good thing that I got to learn from this is that I
am good at the speed and I do have the potential to complete a work within the given period.
Speed is also a very important attribute that is needed to finish the official works within the

stipulated period. However, I will have to keep in mind that if I am working on something at a
very rapid rate, then there are chances that I will be ending up with many errors.
This, in turn, will hamper the project and will also create a bad and a negative impression about
me in the eyes of my colleagues, my teammates, and my superiors. So, I have reached this
conclusionthat I will maintain both the speed and the accuracy at the same time. If I feel that I
am becoming impatient I will also try to divert my mind from that work for some time and will
try to get some refreshments. The basic learning that I got from this incident is that I must not
lose my patience at any point in time. I must deal with every situation in a proper manner.
Conclusion
Thus, it can be concluded that there are both good and bad aspects of my personality. I
have been able to find them out through the usage of the three reflective models that have been
discussed above. The three models that I have used are the Gibbs' reflective model, the Kolb's
reflective model, and the band's reflective model. It is from the evaluation stages of the reflective
models that I have used, that have helped me to notice the positive and the negative aspects of
my personality. My actions henceforth will be to nurture the strengths and to work on the
drawbacks or the negative points. To overcome the lack of patience and anger, I will take the
meditation cases and will also undertake some exercises that will help me to control my anger
and also improve in overcoming the lack of patience. I will also have to use the positive aspect in
a proper way. I will make sure that no one is able to take the undue advantage of my caring and
empathetic nature. I will be helpful and care towards my friends and my colleagues but at the
same time, I will also have to abide by the official rules and regulations. I must not try to help
any of the colleagues in such a way that would violate the office ethics. If any of my co-workers

are in any kinds of problems, then I will have to help them in such a way that it will not harm the
emotions of the other colleagues.

2d Personal Objectives
Short-term goals (next four months)
My short-term goals will be to work on my lack of patience. I will try to enrol myself
in many of the meditation classes and will also take part in the stress relieving

workshops and programmes that are specially designed and conducted for the
employees. I will make it a point that I am working with patience and with a cool and
calm mind. If needed i will switch my attention to some other recreational activities
that will help me to regulate my temper in the proper way.
Medium Term Goals (next 2 – 3 years)
I will try to work on my anger. I will make it a point to develop a self-control over my
mood swings and my anger. I will undertake a course of controlling the anger. This
will be a course of about 2 years where I will be taught how to keep a control over my
anger. I will also take some physical exercise classes like yoga that will help me in
getting rid of the stress and the anger. This will help me in having a control over my
anger. The last one year I will be taking feedbacks from my co-workersdaily to make
sure that I have improved on my frequent mood swings and on my anger.
Long Term Goals (following 3 to 5 years)
I will try to work on my time management skills. As this is really time consuming I
would like to proceed on it slowly. I will make sure that I sketch out a plan every time
before I start working on any project. I will make a rough plan before starting my work
so that I am sorted with the time. I will also plan my work and the tentative time frame
within which I will try to finish the same. It will help me to deal with the assigned

deadlines. I will make it a point to finish the work with proper perfection and within
the given time frame.
Appendix 5
Week 5
I must become a keen observer, a keen listener and must try to inculcate a calm
and cool temperament. If I want to enhance my learning experience then I will
have to make sure that I am observing myself in a closer and a better way. If I
observe my behavior in different situations in a proper way, then I will be able to
analyze myself in a more prominent way. I must be a ken listener so that I can
hear to the opinions of others around me and then decide what is wrong and what
is right. I will also have to keep a proper calm and cool mind. This will help me to

deal with each event properly.
Appendix 6
Week 6
Once I was given an assignment at my office that I had to complete within a time
frame of about a week. Though I knew that I had time but I was suffering from a
lack of patience and I wanted to complete it as fast as possible. So, I somehow
completed it within 2 days. Though I managed to finish it before time, but I made
many mistakes in it that hampered my performance. So, I learned that in future, I
must do all the works patiently. Keeping speed is important but at the same time,
I must also emphasize on accuracy.
Appendix 7
Week 7
I was once appointed as a team leader of a group project. I was managing a group
of 5 people. I came to know that one of the teammates was suffering from some
family problems. He was much tensed and could not concentrate upon work. I
thought of giving him some days leave as a leader I had to take care of every
interest of my followers. However, on the other hand, I had this concern that rest
of the employees would think that I am biased and I am being partial towards the
employee. So, I was suffering from a conflict. However, I made up my mind that
I will have to support this employee as he is in a bad position. So, I allowed him
some days as leave so that he can deal with his problem and explained it the rest

of the employees that giving him some leaves was necessary.

In this easy, I have critically evaluated the experiences that I have been through. I
saw that there are both good and bad experiences that I have been through. For an
instance, When I became impatient and completed the assignment within just

concluded that I need to be more patient and do the works with both speed and
accuracy.

conclusions. I also consider myself as a good
listener. I like listening and understanding a whole
thing before answering or making any comments
about it. I believe that these are my strengths as it
helps me in taking wise decisions after deeply
understanding each situation that takes place.
As per as my understanding is concerned I believe
that my caring and empathetic nature gives rise to
opportunities like making close and rich
relationships with people. Apart from this one of
my greatest opportunities is that I can easily
connect with people and feel all the problems that
they are themselves going through. I always try to
place myself in the place of those individuals and
then give them the maximum possible assistance
and the help that is possible from my end.
ASPIRATIONS RESULTS
I aspire to work more on my strengths in the
upcoming days and try to make sure that I am
working over my drawbacks. I aspire to develop
my decision-making power strong. One of the
drawbacks that i have seen within myself is that I
often become confused and I cannot really take
actions promptly. Though I am a good listener and
a good observer but often I lose my patience. I
become too impatient and make haste in
everything. I feel that maybe I am running short of
This will surely help to create some very positive
results on my personal development. This will help
me both in my personal and in my professional
fronts as well. I will make it a point to keep a
control over my temperament. This will help me to
keep myself calm and I will be able to act more
wisely and sensibly. I will also try to make myself
more patient.

time and so I am always in a hurry. This often
results in many mistakes in my works.
So, I will aspire to work on this field and make
myself more patient. I will make sure that I plan
my schedule accordingly so that I do not make any
mistakes or suffer from the lack of time. Apart
from this, I am also very impatient and I often
loose temper easily. So, I aspire to calm myself
down and to create a self-control over myself. I
aspire to be calm and more patient in my day to
day affairs.
