Step to self-understanding

      Psychological service of Uman National University of Horticulture began a course of classes with the elements of training on the topic "Step to self-understanding".

    Experts think that self-esteem has a great influence on the success of a person. It means that all the achievements and failures depend not only on the knowledge of people and their abilities, but also on how they assess their chances of success. So the first lesson of this course was dedicated to the problem of adequate self-esteem. Objective self-esteem is formed by searching method: "I think I can do it. I should try. I should check all the options." Such self-esteem develops intellectual activity.

Our task is to teach students to have a realistic view of the advantages and disadvantages, to see and understand, to coordinate their actions with other people, to reconcile their desires with the desires and needs of others, relying on their strengths and at the same time making efforts to improve their weak points. Success should be taken for granted and failure should be considered a reason for studying.
