No development without self-effectiveness.



The three wise monkeys made famous by Indian champion of peace, M.K Gandhi is a constant endeavour towards being self-efficient. 


"See no evil, Hear no evil, Speak no evil", however has an underlying message which is, “Do no evil”

A child is not self-effective. He touches the fire and voila, a development of fear towards touching it is instilled. We as human beings need to have a feedback mechanism to our brains so as to be self-effective. The brain’s development contributes to progress of our society without which we are a stagnant race. There are various ways to be self-effective. 


We do have small victories of self-effectiveness in our day-to-day lives. A person always getting up late, gets up early for a picnic. A flag set, at why he accomplished it would enable him accomplish it again. Such performance accomplishments can be bench-marked.

Another way of fighting underdevelopment is by observing someone else who has been successful. Toyota has a set process - Six Sigma - it’s called (One mistake per one million transactions).

We can have mentors, a partner who can coax you or point out the point of failure. Mobile apps which monitor your gym schedule, etc. Such verbal persuasion methods keep our self-effectiveness on track keeping the “no development” tag away.

A person having allergies may not grow or may apply for a handicapped status, but trying to figure out how the allergies are triggered and avoiding those triggers, will definitely allow his development. Such psychological states can be interpreted either on a personal or on a social level.

If there is no self-effectiveness, the baby would burn his hand again. His failure to interpret his girlfriend’s requirements would make his list of failed-relationships into a long list. His lateness would cost him his job. His flabbiness would get flabbier because of his irregular gym habits. Even Dr. House wouldn’t be able to catch his allergy trigger. And all the million mistakes he made in his life would ultimately lead to his own downfall.
