V. EXPLAINATION: ( 5 points each)

1. How do you manage yourself properly?
I always make sure that I will equally manage myself. Physically, Mentally,
Spiritually and Emotionally. It is hard sometimes, especially for a person who always
experience anxiety attack. I meditate, I get proper rest, I connect with people and I
don’t let negative emotions affect my decision-making.

2. What are you doing to nurture your relationships with friends and family?
I communicate with them to make our relationship stronger. I would ask if how are
they doing just to make sure they aren’t facing their problems on their own.

3. Are you taking charge of your health? Why or why not?

Before, I was not taking charge of my own health. I let myself be restless for how
many days. Without proper sleep, meals and exercise. But because of that I became
anemic and it affects my health a lot. That’s why I started changing for the better.

4. Are you doing proactive things to help you stay mentally healthy? Why or why not?

Yes, because doing proactive things such as making sure you maintain a proper
attitude or control your temper helps you make better decisions in life. Having a
healthy mentality can help you a lot on achieving your goals in life.

5. Are you engaging in spiritual practices that you find fulfilling? Why or why not?

Yes, I am. I pray and meditate. It helps me a lot. Also, by meditating I can reflect on my
actions better. It helped me become a better person.

Education is the most powerful weapon which you can use to change
the world”
