Self-management works closely with the component of self-awareness as we learn to regulate and control our emotions to produce productive outcomes instead of a negative result. Motivation, perseverance, and discipline are closely related. It’s important to provide goals for students to help keep them motivated regardless of their ability. Also, It’s important to be consistent when striving to reach a desired goal. Being organized and realistic can help students become successful.
I believe that physical education and team sports offer a great opportunity for students to improve their self-management skills. When playing sports, students are encouraged to play with passion, however, if their emotions get out of control, they or their team will be penalized. I feel that having goals is important for everyone. During track and field, every student is striving to reach their goal which is to improve on their personal best score. We call this a “PR” short for personal record. This is very important as it helps motivate all students on the team regardless of their ability.
