Topic > Self Realization - 657

This module encouraged me to delve into many new experiences and different thought processes. It presents an environment that allows people to think outside the box and realize that what they may perceive as the right idea or the right approach to a task may be completely different from what others think. Personally, I feel like I'm developing the skills to think in a broader perspective, outside of confirmatory thoughts. I've realized that I've become so used to being told exactly how to think, that it can be difficult to put this logical thought process aside and let my mind be free and unbiased. In this sense, I feel that this module is bringing me great benefits, because even if I don't often express my opinion in class, it is very interesting to gain insight into the opinions of others and, through this, change the way I think and perceive things in a creative way. From the initial lecture of the module, the one aspect that I think really enhances the learning experience for me, is that it is so different to every other module in college. In my personal college experience so far, I haven't been asked my opinion on topics very often or exposed to such a liberal environment. This is why I sometimes feel that in this module it is difficult to adapt and transform my brain into a mode of thinking exclusively for myself about ideas and aspects of myself that I am not entirely familiar with. Before starting this module I naively thought I knew exactly what kind of person I was, however from many of the exercises we did I learned that some of the things I had perceived about myself were not entirely accurate. For example, I have always been of the opinion that I am not a c......middle of paper......and I don't have the trust in others to delegate the work to them. It's the ability to gain personal insight like this that makes me truly appreciate this module. When working as part of a team as part of my degree, I can now look back on this class and from that knowledge evaluate whether I can improve my teamwork skills for the benefit of the group. I am now becoming more accustomed to the creative environment generated in this module and am growing in confidence. Up to this point I have really enjoyed the introduction to creative thinking. I am looking forward to the week of lockdown and the new experiences and thought processes that will be presented to us. I will accept the challenge of developing my mind into a creative entity and in turn strive to become a better, more open-minded person with confidence to express creativity upon completion of this module.
