Learn To Do Self Analysis

It is very important and even essential for us, the humans to do self-analysis. Self-analysis (SA) means that we all should do analysis of ourselves; of our own performance in our own domain of the work, be at homes, or in the office-work/job places.

This involves the process of asking certain simple questions to ourselves:

i) Have I performed my duties to my home: to my wife, my parents, my children?

ii) Have I done proper work in/at my job place?

iii) Have I done other social duties that might have been expected of/from me?

One fine morning, Bekappa dashed opened the door of his office boss, entered the room apparently in anger.

BK: Sir, tell me why have I not been called for the assessment interview for my promotion?

Gate-senour was caught unaware, since he did not really know if the guy was not called for the interview, because these things are handled by the recruitment office, based on the previous/current years’ confidential reports of the concerned staff members.

GS: It means that your marks are not enough to call you for the assessment.

BK: How can it be?

GS: Means your performance was not that satisfactory in the last/current year.

BK: My performance cannot be bad at all; in the previous year/s I got nearly 90% marks, and how/why do I get less this time?

GS: It means that your current performance has gone down, so lesser marks.

BK: My performance cannot go down at all, it is not fair that I have not been assessed this time. (saying this he left the room very swiftly, even while his boss was trying to clarify the situation.

*

BK had not done any self-analysis for last number of years, may be, he did not know how to do it, or he did not know what this process of self-analysis even means.

**

We also should periodically do the assessment of our own manners to others, how we talk to them, how we handle the guest at our home at their hosts, and how we should behave in others’ homes as their guests. There are many things to learn and do, and are very simple, but we often do not pay much attention to these routines, and conventions; we tend to disregard the importance of these mannerisms, and often take these for granted. We do have, though habit to convey our impressions afterwards to the guests, or we often here from their sides about our own behaviours in their houses when we had visited them as their guests.

All these can be corrected by doing simple self-analysis. We need to be continually alert on several such issues, that in the first place may look trivial, but in an overall sense, complying would build long lasting relationships between families, and friends.

**

Again after barely a week, BK entered his boss’s office with the same anger, and speed as earlier, and had even bang-opened the door, but the boss knew this staff member’s condition, so he did not mind the bad mannerism of his subordinate.

BK: Sir, I still do not believe that my performance could have gone down. It is not possible at all, and I have been given less marks because, I think I did not do one work of yours.

GS: Your marks are given by your group coordinator, with whom you routinely interact and work directly under her/him; and not me, though I had not changed and simply forwarded your confidential report to the higher up.

BK: Why would S/he give less marks, I am the most obedient one and have done everything that was asked of me in terms of the technical works for last four years?

GS: If you cool down, and just listen to me, we will go over the entire four years’ period and analyse the work handed over to you, and the degree of completion and success of the efforts that you might have put to do these works. I appreciate your honest efforts, but the results should bear/show the efficiency and success.

BK: Actually, I am aware of these things, and I have completed all the tasks.

GS: All the four major works that you were handed over, are according to me incomplete, inconclusive, and hence not successful.

BK: How do you say that, now that you want to justify the low marks given to me?

GS:

i) The software written by you syntax-wise works but does not produce logically correct results, it just churns out some numbers, which do not fit in our engineering judgement at all. You were asked to put more efforts, but you did not complete that work of refinement of the program.

ii) Our senior boss had given some work to do performance analysis of an engine, and you were supposed to do that within two week, but you then never approached him, now that two months are over.

iii) You were asked to record the technical discussions of the meetings which you had attended for last two years, and so far no report has been prepared by you.

iv) And the fourth thing, you did not complete the technical reports of the certain other results before going on your deputation abroad, and even for a year you did not tell me what was the status of these results! How do say that your performance has not gone down?

BK left the boss’s office in a huff, and for nearly one year he never went to meet his boss, and even when he saw him in the corridor, BK never looked up to his boss. What a contemplation and steady mind of BK? Only when BK got promotion after one year, he talked to his boss.

*

BK had not done any self-analysis of his performance, his nature, his mannerisms, etc. Had he done this periodically in last four/five years, he might have become a different and a better person, and a real good researcher.

We all should practice the exercise of self-analysis, if not daily, at least once in a week. In fact our mind always keeps doing it regularly by giving us feedback signals, but in our daily hassle we tend to ignore these alert indications, and we say: I thing I have done everything properly, and nothing went wrong.

**

A few steps to practice:

1. The point is to discover ones’ own self, its strength and limitations.

2. In this case we have to be honest, to figure out our limitations, we always cannot say that whatever we have done, or doing is perfect and correct; it might be from our angle, but not others’ point-of-view. Of course, it may not fit everybody, and need not be fitted to their all requirements, but we should take cognizance of this aspect.

3. The self-analysis requires courage, because we do not want to believe that we could be wrong, even though we might be, if not always, but occasionally so!

4. So, this requires patience/time, and focus on the issues on which we want to ponder to do self-analysis.

5. Basically the idea is to realize who we truly are, not who we want to become.

6. There could be a very wide gap between what we exactly are and what we would like to become in our life.

7. We need to figure out in what aspects we are good, and where we have gone wrong, or could go wrong.

8. Get feedback from co-workers, friends and your own family members. Analyze these inputs and try to implement good part of these feedback.

9. Continually do the assessment of your relationships with these members, and maintain the feedback channel for your own benefits.

10. Since, doing self-analysis, and knowing our limitations, at least pointed out by others, requires lot of courage, hence it is important to develop this tolerance, and keep poise; because the self-analysis is ultimately for our own good, and sure-success in our professional and personal careers in our lives.
