Part 3
This section mainly focuses on self-reflection. The adjectives
mean a lot to me. The distribution of the words speaks a lot. It
simply means that many people have got different perspectives
about an individual (Dash, 2020). This entirely depends on the
mode of interaction. They also tell me that the majority of
people do view me in a positive way. Only a few see my flaws.
But this is expected since no one is perfect.
The distribution of the words is a clear indication that my level
of self-awareness is very law. However, this is expected since
no one can be able to explain his or her attributes. It is through
those who are near us that we are able to know more about you.
For instance, I would say that the traits that I was aware of are
Quick-tempered, visionary, generous, responsible, and polite. It
is through the close associates that I came to learn about the
other traits.
The good thing is that the traits signify a high level of self-
esteem. I am in love with myself, and I do replicate the same to
others without any form of fear. I have been able to strike a
balance between the two. That is high and low self-esteem. I do
believe that I can be able to lead others, care about others, and

4. practice honesty. I also believe that I have a lot of knowledge
that can be shared with others. It is through my self-esteem that
I have been able to build a positive culture.
There were several traits that were repeated throughout the
analysis. For instance, friends 1 and 2, together with church
mate 2, complimented me by saying that I am courageous. My
neighbor, pastor, and church mate 2, argued that I was an honest
person. friend 1 and family member 2 argued that I was
adventurous. The first friend and my neighbor also argued that I
was an easy gore. My neighbor and the first member of the
family argued that many times I was moody. All of these were
positive aspects. There were still some negative aspects. Family
1 and 3 argued that I am always pessimistic.
In some cases, the family description was the same. For
instance, family members one and 3 described me as
pessimistic. Since not all members of the family described me
using the same word, I would say that every member of the
family knew me in a different way.
I would prudently say that the whole experience was very
interesting, and I have embraced it in a positive way. This is
because all the positive attributes have helped me in building
my self-esteem. What I even focused more on is the negative
aspect. They give me an assurance that I am not perfect and,
thus, should work on improving my inner self (Natividade,
2016). What surprised me more is on the pastor’s description
that I am shy. I think he confused respect and shyness. Because
I respect him, he thinks that I am shy. I don’t think that there is
another individual who would argue that I am shy.

perception others have of you. It
may feel uncomfortable to ask others for their opinions of you,
but most students find this
assignment rewarding in the end.

6. 1. Write down 10 adjectives about YOU. It is important that you
do this first.
2. Ask 10 people who know you to also write down 10
adjectives that describe you. It is best
to ask people who know you from different contexts: family
members, friends, coworkers,
colleagues from school, relatives, etc.
3. Your Johari Window should contain of 3 parts: the list of
words sorted by person, the
Johari Window itself, and the reflection.
4. Part 1: Compile ALL adjectives into one document. You
should have 110 adjectives total.
List them by the person who gave them to you, but keep the list
anonymous. Instead of
names, use descriptors like “Family member 1”, “Friend 1”,
“Friend 2”, “Colleague”, etc.
5. Part 2: Sort all adjectives into the Johari Window based on
whether they match your own
list or not.
OPEN: put all words that are on your list AND at least on one
other list. Use duplicate
words only once.
HIDDEN: put all remaining words that are only on your list.
The “Open” and “Hidden”
boxes together should contain all your 10 words, but no
more/less.
BLIND: put all remaining words from your family’s and
friends’ list. Use duplicate words
only once.
UNKNOWN: stays blank
6. Part 3. Write a 500-word reflection. Analyze the distribution

7. of words and discuss your
experience. This is the main part of the assignment and worth
the most points.
What does the distribution of words tell you?
Does it indicate high or low self-awareness? Why?
Does it indicate high or low self-esteem? Why?
Which words had many repetitions?
Did your loved ones all describe a similar “you” or did their
descriptions differ depending
on the context from which they knew you? (For example,
coworkers described you
differently from friends, etc.)
How was your overall experience? Positive? Negative?
Uncomfortable? Surprising? Why?

Reflection
The overall project was quite interesting. I had never done
anything like this before and it was neat to be able
to see myself through other people’s eyes. As I analyzed the
results, I realized that most qualities were repeated
throughout my friends and family members. Additionally, most
of the adjectives had a positive connotation. This made

10. me see myself in a more positive light, because I usually tend to
be very critical about myself and miss the favorable
qualities that others see in me. Words that were used to describe
me included humble, brave, determined, unique and
trustworthy; qualities which I failed to see in myself.
The distribution of words told me that I have relatively high
self-awareness (8 out of my 10 words were also
used by my friends and family to describe me), as well as
relatively high self-esteem (the words in the “Hidden Self”
box were neutral or positive in connotation). I am happy with
this outcome and feel secure in myself.
Through this assignment, I realized that for the most part my
friends and family members do know the same
“me”. Most of the adjectives, such as ambitious, adventurous,
and intelligent, were repeated among the people’s
responses. I think this goes to show that I am true to myself
with everyone I meet and I don’t change the way I act
depending on who I speak to. However, when I am in a more
formal setting, such as when speaking to a professor or
boss. In these instances, I tend to be more serious and not the
“loud” and “restless” person I am described to be.
Overall, I learned not be so critical of myself. I constantly fear
that I am not the kind-hearted person that I
strive to be, especially because I can sometimes become moody

11. and say things that I don’t quite mean. However,
despite my mood swings, my family members and friends still
see me as a caring and thoughtful individual. Therefore,
I need to learn to give myself more credit. I am human, and
sometimes I will get angry and sad; sometimes I will mess
up. But these mistakes do not define me. Instead, it is the way I
deal with and learn from them that does.
