STUDENT’S PRAYER
Lord Jesus, I thank you for the opportunity to study which others may not have. Help
me to give my best in whatever I do. Give me the grace to manage my time well, - to
balance “study and play”. Help me set aside distracting thoughts and to have focus
especially during exams. Do not let me fall into temptations of cheating and making
“short cuts” in order to attain my goals. Instead, let me accept the fact of life that
nothing is worth comes easy. Let me value the knowledge and wisdom imparted to us
by our teachers and the Oblates of Notre Dame Sisters, and to appreciate their efforts
and concerns. Teach me to learn the lessons of life that I may not only live for myself
but for others. Amen. That which pleases God, I strive to do always.
Lesson Doing a Philosophical

1.3 Reflection on a
Situation from Holistic
Reflection requires a person to be willing to examine one’s thoughts, feelings, and action
and to learn more about one’s life and experiences.
Human self-reflection is the capacity of humans to exercise introspection and to attempt to
learn more about their fundamental nature and essence.
Philosophy has an important place in our daily lives. Engaging in philosophical reflection
leads to the development of beneficial skills that individuals can apply in everyday situations.

Write your answer on the space provided below.
1. Have you ever had an experience where reflecting on your actions benefitted you?
2. Has reflection ever helped you avoid making a bad decision?
WHAT’S IN
Reflection is vital in ensuring that our actions and decisions are well thought out and are done
with due regard for their implications and consequences on ourselves, others, and our
surroundings. When we reflect, we can judge whether our actions or decisions are reasonable
or not. Doing Philosophy enables a person to engage in critical analysis and interpretation of
concepts, definitions, arguments, and problems. Doing Philosophy also improves problem-
solving and decision making. The ability to analyze a problem or dilemma, identify the
significant aspects, and come up with alternative solutions is an important skill learned through
philosophy. In the process of doing philosophy, it is critical to have a holistic point of
view-the perception of looking at all aspects of a situation first before making a conclusion.
Wisdom as it refers to a person’s ability to apply knowledge to daily life particularly in making
sound choices and judgment is the intended product of philosophizing. Finally, knowledge of
Philosophy can contribute to self-development.
