RATIONALE FOR MAINTAINING JOURNAL FOR SUCCESS

Mans main task in life is to give birth to himself, to become what he potentially
is. The most important product of his effort is his own personality. -Erich Fromm
Dear Students, In this fast-paced world, one finds it difficult to spare time t
o stop and reflect on various life events. When this happens, it is possible tha
t one feels that all the efforts and toil had gone in the wrong direction and on
e is still far away from his or her goal. The art of achieving goal lies in unde
rstanding our self, building on our strengths and overcoming weaknesses. This fa
cilitates the process of self awareness, self acceptance and progression towards
self reform. Self reform is the key to Happiness. For this purpose, self enhanc
ement from the experiential training in Behavioural Science would facilitate sel
f-awareness and develop better interpersonal skills to achieve professional succ
ess. To achieve professional success, skills required are personal. This experient
ial learning will enable individuals to gain insight into behavioural aspects of
self-governance. The Journal for Success, as an integral part of the Behavioura
l Science course, is a tool for your introspection, self-exploration and self go
vernance. It involves your own initiative to reflect on the discussions and acti
vities during the various workshops of Behavioural Science courses. The process
of penning down personal learning from class exercises and discussions is in its
elf a valuable device for selfawareness. This Journal for Success may cover foll
owing information as a self report Personal self profile at the time of joining
the course Your understanding of course content. Self-rating against personal en
hancement skills Difficulties and obstacles in your personal development and lea
rning the application of the subject. Experiences which one feel are relevant to
your training for personal and professional enhancement (specifically during th
e training period) Assessment of own self as an excellent professional after the
training through Self-Rating, Interventions and Self-Profiling.

This Journal would work as an assessment and evaluation tool for self-knowledge
and would further help you develop the ability to: Recognize the uniqueness and
expression of your self and that of others Inculcating the ability to accept sel
f and others Communicate the awareness to your self and others Monitor events in
your life and make decisions for the present and future.
For successful completion of the Behavioural Science programme, you are required
to write about your experiences and learning from each activity & discussion du
ring all workshops in this Journal. You are required to inculcate these learning
to effect positive change in your behaviour & personality. Your Personal Journa
l will be reviewed at the end of each semester till the completion of the Progra
mme. Self Assessment, Self Analysis, Synthesis, Focus, Exploration, Honest Expre
ssion, Initiative and Consistency are some elements that will help you to mainta
in this Personal Journal and enhance Behavioural Skills for success in life.
Wishing you a great insightful learning experience!
