Mini Report
I am interested to join this talk because I want to prepare myself for any bad occasion that will hit me. I am afraid that I could not handle that situation and can led to mental health problems such as anxiety and depression. The worst could happen is committing suicide. I could find a way out from this talk in case I have to confront these unwanted and uninvited disaster.
One of the Graduate Attributes that are focused on this talk is communication skills. I found out that there is actually a specified way to talk to a person that just being hit with bad occasion in case he/she confront me. If I do not know how to handle this kind of situation, it will just making thing worst. I need to use the right communication skill when dealing with this situation. Another attribute is the global citizen. This talk also make me realized that I need to always aware of my surrounding circles and friends. If one of my friends show some sign of mental breakdown, I could meet them and have a talk with them. The least I can do is to bring them to the counselor if I have no idea how to handle him.
Dr Abdullah share to me about how the people that have gone through bad occasion will be granted a reward which is they will be promoted to a higher degree. In Islam, degree is the measure of how good the behaviour of a muslim is. I was very relieved when listening to this. In pain, I still able to get a reward that does not guaranteed to be given to other muslim.
Self-Reflection
I have learned a new way to communicate with unlucky person that have to gone through bad occasion. If done in the right way, I could cheer him up and make him forget the burden that they need to carry impacted by the bad occasion. I also have learned to always look around myself and do not become a selfish person. Always aware of my friends and help them if they are in need or simply have an unlucky or bad day.
One of the advantages of this talk is I am able to increase my self esteem and realized that it is not the end of the world if I encountered any bad occasion. There is always solution to problem. I just need to find the right solution for each problem. For me, it is okay to be sad but it cannot be too long. Life has to go on despite all things that happen to us whether we like or unlike it.
One of the challenges for me is self confident. I am afraid that I am not ready and confident enough to go through these unlucky days. I afraid that I could do dumb things such as hitting my head on the wall because I cannot control myself. The best solution is to meet the counselor or simply tell my story to my bestfriends because they may help me to cool down my mental temperature.
