Topic 1.
knowing me
“Of all possible knowledge, the wisest and most
useful is to know oneself.”

William Shakespeare

SELF-KNOWLEDGE
This is the first aptitude of Emotional Intelligence (EI) and it is based on the
fact that, if you do not manage to know yourself well, be aware of what your
strengths and weaknesses are, learn to identify your moods and the
consequences that these can have on your behavior, you will hardly be able
to control your reactions and use them productively. You will also not be able
to understand well the behavior of those around you, identify their feelings
and emotions, nor will you be able to act effectively in your interpersonal
relationships.
It is obvious. Knowing yourself is the task
more difficult because it directly puts into play
our rationality, but also our
fears and passions. If one manages to meet
himself, he will know how to understand others and
the reality that surrounds it.
LISTEN TO YOUR EMOTIONS
Your emotions can provide you with valuable information about
yourself, other people, and certain situations. For example, having taken
out your bad mood on a colleague may indicate that you are overwhelmed by
excessive work; Feeling anxious about an upcoming presentation may be a
sign that you need to better prepare your data.
emotions intelligently: deliberately making your emotions work for your
benefit, so that they help you control your behaviors and thoughts for better
results. Emotional intelligence can be nurtured, developed and increased; it is
not, therefore, a quality that one has or does not have.
DEVELOPMENT OF YOUR SELF-AWARENESS
Being aware of your feelings and behavior, as well as the perception that
others have of you, can influence your actions in ways that benefit you.
The key is knowing how to tune in to the abundant information that your
feelings, sensations, evaluations, actions and intentions provide you. This
information helps you understand how you respond, behave, communicate,
and function in various situations.
Tips to be in harmony with your feelings
Although our feelings are born within us, they often have external
manifestations. You can begin to understand what is happening inside you by
paying attention to the visible signs. For example, if you find that your face
begins to light up during a conversation, it could indicate that you are
embarrassed. If you find yourself gripping the arm of your chair tightly while
talking to someone, you're probably angry. Likewise, sensory data provides
you with valuable information that helps you understand why you do what you
do. They alert you to whether or not you feel comfortable in a given situation,
and help you understand your reactions.

If you listen to the information that your emotions provide you, you can
modify your behaviors and thoughts in order to transform situations.
For example, in the case of an outburst of anger, you can see the importance
of taking measures to reduce your burdens, better organize aspects of your
life, and learn to manage your emotions.

Emotions play an important role in your personal life and in the development
of daily activities. From anger to enthusiasm, from frustration to satisfaction,
every day you face your own and other people's emotions. The key is to use
 Self-knowledge

Reliving a stressful situation

This exercise doesn't exactly seem like fun, but it has enormous value, because, by mentally reliving a difficult or painful experience, that is when we learn the most about our emotional
reactions to certain situations, and we can de-dramatize the emotions. Normally, you resist reliving stressful emotions, however, these are the ones that teach you the most and, therefore, it is
important that you learn to deal with these emotions.

Below is the summary of the exercise that we propose in this booklet.

- First, find a good time and a quiet place to do it.
- Focus on a stressful situation you have experienced. Evoke that experience that depressed, saddened or hurt you a lot.
- Try to reconstruct the scene with all its details; Reconstruct the conversation, re-experience the emotions you felt during this meeting.
- Ask yourself if your emotions were consistent with the situation.

What happened? __________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________

What did you feel? _________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________

Do you think you reacted appropriately? ________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________

Now draw your own conclusions about your emotions:

What do you want to change? ________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________

How can you achieve it? _____________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________

By recognizing your emotions, you will also be able to clearly see what you like and what you don't. From there the fundamental basis for a future vocational approach is recognized.
 My feelings diary

Its objective is to become aware of your emotions and understand the role they play in your life.

For this, at different times of the day, or at the end of each day, it is advisable to write down the feelings experienced. After two weeks or a month, you review the entries:
Do you see that certain emotions are repeated more than others?
Do you experience the same feelings for the same cause?

By examining your feelings, you will see if it is possible to make some changes, for example to relieve anxiety.

Studying the diary allows you to see which emotions you experience and which ones are repeated. You can also use this information to find out why you hold certain emotions and, if they
are negative, how you can modify the situation so as not to experience them.
 Who I am?

Imagine that you receive a letter from a young man from a distant country who offers you his friendship. In his letter he asks you: who are you? what do you look
like?. You must answer in a sincere and precise way, describing your personal values, that is why we will help you with these questions so that, by analyzing
them, you can give an answer to your new friend.

Where I am?
How am I How do I live?

Who do I live with? Do I decide to live on the surface or in the depths?

What are the values that stand out in my actions? What kind of person do I want to be?

What will be the basic goals that I will try to embody in my life?

How far do I want to go?

“People often say they haven't found themselves yet. But the self is not something that
one finds, but something that one creates.” Thomas Szasz
 My Self-x-ray
We invite you to answer the following questions that will serve as a basis for your self-knowledge.

From what your parents have told you, what was your first year of life like? Who were your best friends in your primary school?

What were your second and third years of life like? How was your entry into high school?

How was your first birthday? Of the high school subjects, which one did you like the most and which one did
you not like?

project is a future plan that allows us to reflect what we want to do later with our life.
 The inventory of my life
We invite you to answer the following questions that will serve as a basis for your self-knowledge.

When do I feel totally alive? What are the things, the events, the activities, that make me feel that life is really worth living, that is the wonderful thing about being alive?

What am I doing well? How can I contribute to the lives of others? What am I doing well for my own development and well-being?

Given my current situation and aspirations, what do I need to learn to do?

What desires should I turn into plans? What dreams have I discarded as unrealistic and do I know I should dream again?

What resources do I have that are undeveloped or misused? These resources can refer to material things, personal talents or friendships.

What should I stop doing now?

What should I start doing now?

How do the answers given to all the above questions affect my immediate plans and projects for the next three months, for the next year?
 My family
The family is the one that provides the greatest influence in making professional decisions, because it is in this nucleus in which you have been trained and from
which you have acquired a series of values that make you perceive things in a very particular way.

Not all families are the same, some have parents, uncles, grandparents, others are made up of the mother and her children, or parents and children, but the most
important thing is the union, peace and harmony that allows full development of all its members.

family

If you lead a
harmonious family life, you should have answered YES to all the questions. If you answered NO to any of the
questions, you should talk to your parents so that this aspect improves.
 My friends
Friendship is one of the most important values in our life. Friends are treasures that you must preserve, they teach you respect, solidarity, honesty and
loyalty; A good friend will always correct you when you are wrong and this is why we must choose our friends well.

Write in the circles the names of your best friends and what the value and qualities that identify them are.

Evaluate the relationship you have with

your friends
Answer YES or NO to the following questions:

Y NO BECAUSE?

A
Do your friends have a good H
opinion of you?

Do you usually talk sincerely

and calmly with your friends?

Do you always act respectfully

in relationships with your
friends?

Do you feel that you and your

friends have a relationship of
respect, support and mutual
help?

If you have a good relationship with your friends, you should have answered YES to all the
questions. If you answered NO to any of the questions, it is because perhaps you have not had a very
sincere attitude. You can seek the support of your parents, teachers or counselor for advice.
 My Improvement
Plan
Once every aspect of your life has been analyzed, it is necessary to make an improvement plan. Remember that it is in your hands to make the
necessary changes so that you can achieve success.

You do not walk alone on this journey, you count on your family, your friends, your teachers and teaching
directors.

The only way to feel satisfied is to do great work and

Steve Jobs
 What are vocational interests?
WE SHOULD KNOW THAT... Interests are preferences for carrying out certain activities. They have always been considered primary factors for career choice and that is why they are known as vocational
interests. To choose a career or study it is necessary to know or recognize what we are skilled at and what things interest or attract us. That is a first step to then move on to the information stage and address the
world of careers and professions.

“A boat's engine determines how fast it can go, while the rudder determines the path the boat takes.”
In this sentence, the rudder corresponds to your interests and the engine corresponds to your abilities.
According to your interests and abilities, you can choose which career to study, as part of your life plan.

Do you want to know the results of

your Test?
In the results table, which you will find below, circle the numbers of the questions you marked in the “I am interested” column. Then in the “total” column, write down the
number of your answers in each of the areas.
To find out which area interests you the most, look for the one in which you got the highest result (that would be your first choice of vocational interest).
Next, identify which area you got the second highest score in (that will be your second choice of vocational interest).
- Those areas in which you obtained a lower score will be the ones that interest you the least vocationally.
In the “List of professions by area”, look for the professions related to the areas of vocational interest in which you obtained the two highest scores.
Don't worry if you get very high or low scores in one or some areas. This means that you have many or very few interests in certain fields.
- Talk about the results with your parents, teachers and counselors.

Remember, these results will help you decide what to study after school.

Theme 3.
Projecting future
 LIFE PROYECT
The life project is the planning of what you will do to achieve all the goals that you have set out to achieve in the different stages of your life. It is important that you recognize your strengths and weaknesses
because they are directly linked to your dreams and aspirations, as well as with the vision and mission that you, as a student and as a human being, have.

Think very carefully and answer the following seriously and responsibly:
THE
VISION MY
The vision is related to the mission. Vision is how a person sees themselves in the long or short term, their dreams and goals. To develop your mission you must have important aspects such as God, your
VISION
studies, your family, your friends, etc.

On the front write YOUR VISION taking into account:

1. What things do you want to have?
2. What things do you want to do? What do you want to be?
3. When you imagine doing something enjoyable, what is it?
4. Where are you going?
5. What are your short, medium and long term goals?
6. How do you see yourself in the future?

Let's see how your ACADEMIC ASPECT is

What do you need to be academically successful? Evaluate your attitude towards your intellectual training, answer the following questions and explain the reason for your answers.

ASK YEAH NO BECAUSE?

Do you assume a positive attitude in various activities?

Do you have clear goals about what you are going to do with your life?

Do you watch educational and cultural programs?

Do you feel motivated to go to school and learn new things?

Do you give more than what is asked of you in the studio?

Do you evaluate in which aspects of your studies you are failing and do you strive to improve?

If you assume commitment to your training, all the answers should be YES .
If you have answered NO to any question, you should stop and analyze where you are failing and seek help to improve in that aspect.

• What will you do to overcome the behaviors and attitudes that negatively interfere with your school performance?
• What commitments should you make with yourself to achieve your school life project?

Read and think about your personal experience

We settle instead of taking risks. Without thinking that with each passing day, he will not return.
Nothing is written, nothing is impossible, not even possible... everything depends on our will, on those forces that come
from within us, to say from within is to say that I can face every challenge.
We have the power when we are convinced, when we are determined, when we really want something.
There is no obstacle capable of imposing itself.
If we want we can go further, if we want we can go higher, if we want we can do anything...
"You just have to propose it"
Life is a beautiful thing, as long as you do it your way, without letting anything or anyone give your opinion for you, without
letting anything or anyone get into your affairs trying to fix them.
Never let anyone ruin your life.
There is only one life, live it step by step and don't stop doing anything.
You'll probably regret it and when you realize it you'll be too lonely.
Don't stop living your dreams and illusions either, without them, life has no meaning.
Always try to go straight ahead without turning around...
Don't trust all the people around you, sometimes you think they are the best person in the world and in reality they are a
real enemy.
Always walk with the truth, no matter how painful it may be, anyway, it is worth much more than a lie.
If one day you feel lonely and feel like crying, do it, it often helps you let off steam.

When faced with any problem, do not run away for fear of facing it.
Theme 4.
Where can I study?
 What do I do when I leave high school?
When you are finishing high school, you realize that it has been years of rigorous study and work, and suddenly you see a light at the end of the
passage... It seems like you are on another planet and with it comes the question: What am I going to do now? Where do I want to go? Who I want
to be?

It may be one of the most significant decisions you will make in your life, so it is necessary to be aware of the variety of possibilities that are
presented to you.

Remember that the main option is to continue studying, now, something that you are passionate about and in which you want to be the best, but
if there is no possibility of doing so, looking for a job can be a good option, always thinking about saving to start to study and look for a
professional future.

After having developed the orientation tests that you found in the booklet, you have a clearer idea of your inclination towards your vocational
shütter stock, com • 109202252 interests so now, in this section, you can search for the educational option in the universities of the Region.

Remember that to go as far as you want, you require effort, confidence, dedication and a lot of discipline.

In addition, if you want to go deeper into the areas of study, the value of the semester, the duration of the degree, etc., you can enter “Looking for a career”, a virtual tool from the Ministry of National
Education that provides you with complete and reliable information about the undergraduate programs offered by higher education institutions in Colombia in the technical, professional, technological
and university categories.

But what are technical, technological and professional careers?

You will find out below…

Higher education
The Ministry of National Education, the regulatory body of the Colombian educational system, tells us that in our country education is defined as a process of
permanent, cultural and social personal training that is based on a comprehensive conception of the human person, their dignity, of their rights and duties.

Likewise, the Political Constitution gives the fundamental notes of the nature of the educational service indicating, for example, that it is “a right of the person, a public
service that has a social function and that corresponds to the State to regulate and "exercise supreme inspection and surveillance regarding the educational service in
order to ensure its quality, the fulfillment of its purposes and the best moral, intellectual and physical training of the students."

The Colombian educational system is made up of: initial education, preschool education, basic education (primary five grades and secondary four grades), secondary
education (two grades and culminates with the bachelor's degree), and the higher education that is taught. at two levels: undergraduate and graduate.
 Technical, Technological and Professional Careers

The undergraduate level in higher education has, in turn, three levels of training:

• Professional Technical Level (related to Professional Technical programs).

• Technological Level (related to technological programs).
• Professional Level (related to university professional programs).

In turn, postgraduate education includes the following levels:

• Specializations (related to Professional Technical Specialization, Technological Specialization and Professional Specialization programs). • Master's degrees.
• PhDs.

So, taking into account your vocational interests, you have the option to choose between some undergraduate level, like this:

• Technical education is fundamentally characterized because its curriculum focuses on the practice of what has been learned, that is, it enables students to perform specific
functions in the operational area. It is training intended to train for a specific job or function. The programs
are short in duration, generally four to six semesters.
• Technological education that has a higher degree of specialization, comprising programs that are
closely linked to technical processes, but simultaneously have a higher component of theoretical
knowledge. This modality is designed to perform intermediate level positions in companies. Its duration is
between five and seven semesters.

• Professional education that is at the top of the pyramid and brings together aspects of the previous two,
but the emphasis is placed on the theoretical aspect of research. Professional careers require a greater
analytical and critical sense, which encompasses all the knowledge available in a specific area of study.
They are designed so that their graduates can hold management positions. The professional modality is
the longest of the three since it lasts from eight to twelve semesters. In the official sector there is no free
offer, but the cost varies depending on the stratum to which you belong.
