Do You Know Who You Are?by Os Hillman
Someone once said, "Success is when those who know you the best are those who love you the most."
Years ago a man named Jahari developed a self-assessment tool that helps us understand how we relate to others. The Jahari Window helps us realize where we are in our ability to know who we are and for others to know who we are. Real transparency in communication takes place when those we associate with us know who we are after we discover who we really are. See if you can identify what category you might fall among these four:
Transparent Life The transparent life is the life we should desire. I know who I am and others know me. There is nothing hidden. I have come to know who I am as an individual and basically people get what they see in me.
Bull-In-The-China Shop This person is blinded to the things that others recognize about him. The solution to becoming a transparent person is to get feedback from those around us about the blind spots in our personality. We must ask for the feedback and be willing to respond to their input.
Aloof/Hidden Secrets This person lives in a secret world. They don't allow others to know about themselves. They know themselves but are fearful of letting others know. Those around them do not know them either. What do others really know about you? Have you allowed yourself to get close enough to others to share who you really are inside?
Hidden Potential This is a combination of Bull-In-A-China Shop and Aloof/Hidden Secrets. It is the saddest of all conditions. These people don't know themselves and others don't know them either. This means both parties have to invest the energy to communicate and get feedback from one another.
How about you? Why not take a step to find out who you really are in the eyes of others. It could change your life.
I find this article very interesting and I hope those reading it will know more about yourself and allowing others to know you more. SCB is a family and it is made up of different people with different background and if you belong to this family, you wouldn't find yourself not knowing the people in the family. Indeed to get to know all may take time and relationship needs time to build.
I hope with the investiture of the new batch of councillors, you will build your relationship well with your seniors and learn from one another. Stay strong and finish this race of yours as a student councillor well!

Cyber EtiquetteIt has been a while since the blog was updated. As we enter into the new year, i think it will be good if we can have a re cap of what we have learnt so far. I have taught on many things, one of them is on cyber etiquette.
Writing blog, MSN, friendster, live journal, face book, etc are platforms where people get connected in the cyber world. Long lost friends get united through the platform of friendster and now the popular face book. I am not really good with all these cyber space tools, but what i know is that when we use these tools, we need to practice the value of respect.
There have been news articles on people abusing the use of blogging, and the different tools in the cyber world. That is why we need to practise cyber etiquette. People write on blog to express their feelings, some may even use it to ventilate their frustrations, anger at times, some will use it to share the happy moments with friends, some use it as an update on what is going on in their lives. These are actually good platforms for people who cannot express freely but choose to express in writing. Some are good writers who use this as a platform to display their writing talents.
However i am rather concerned when it comes to people who simply abuse it and allowing negative things to appear on their blog, msn nick,etc. Negative things such as vulgarities, words that tear down people, some even use images like video clips, pictures to hurt. These are not the kind of cyber etiquette we want to see it appearing in the cyber space, and yet there are many who are abusing the freedom that was given.
For these people who use words that is offensive, abusive, hurting, tearing down, it just reflected to people who you really are in person. Even in the cyber world, names may be changed, but it doesn't change who you are in person.
Character is who you are when no one is watching.
Let us all respect one another and watch our cyber etiquette.

Servant LeadershipThe washing of one another's feet is an act of loving dedication to one another, who is also a representative of all humanity, of our willingness to do for that one whatever may be necessary, even to the point of death. When we take the feet of our brother or sister in our hands and wash them, we are saying to him or her, "I love you as a brother or sister, and you can count on me to be of service to you, however humble it may be, even to the point of giving my life for you." Unless one enters into it in this spirit, prepared to make this commitment, it cannot be said that one has truly taken part in the service and has "washed one another's feet."
Do you really know the meaning of servant leadership?
I hope all who have gone through the activity would finally understand what it means to be a servant leader.
