My abilities are social studies 6. What are my abilities and what can I do with them? Mental and intellectual abilities of a person

The study of such a source of inspiration as personal or my abilities will never dry up. “I can do, create, create, decorate my life thanks to what?” and “How can qualities be turned from inanimate into living ones?” - the right questions, the answers to which will help to reveal the potential of a particular person and find out how he differs from other people.

For development, knowledge and concentration on one's abilities, one should explore the possibilities of the human mind, individual characteristics character and determine how exactly temperament affects a person’s ability to overcome external resistance.

Mental and intellectual abilities of a person

Human abilities include individual and psychological features that distinguish one individual from another. They are constantly confused with inclinations, although inclinations are related to the anatomical features of the brain and form the natural basis for the development of abilities.

Abilities are different (group, professional and others), including intellectual ones. Such human capabilities are amenable to particularly lively development and are capable of manifesting themselves in labor activity. How do people train their abilities of this type? By gaining knowledge, mastering skills and developing your living thinking.

Cognition is also the key to the development of the mind through the following processes:

  • sensations;
  • submissions;
  • perceptions;
  • concepts;
  • inferences.

Intelligence is formed due to the amount of working memory and memory in general, the ability to make predictions, logic, readiness for selfless help and other parameters.

Character features

The so-called character traits of a person should be understood not as a set of separately considered personal (individual) characteristics of a person, but as personal and peculiar combinations of prevailing (significant) personality traits. It is due to the diversity of character traits that any individual as a unit of society is distinguished.

In a science called psychology, which studies the change in psychological phenomena, there are 4 sets of character traits that express certain personality relationships.

These include the perception of the collective and the attitude towards living and inanimate objects:

  • people (kindness or contempt);
  • labor (industriousness or laziness);
  • things (slovenliness or pedantry);
  • to oneself (pride or discontent).

Even among such human properties as individual character traits, there are more main (central) relationships and those that they took for patronage (derivatives). The central features can also be called pivotal. These include the attitude of the individual to others and work.

How will identification and acquaintance and exploration of one's own character help? Knowing your living traits and those that can be classified as “inanimate” or completely absent helps in educating a person, that is, developing some character traits and eradicating others.

Presentation on the topic: "Man and his abilities"

Nevertheless, some character flaws cannot be overcome, no matter how possible the upbringing of certain positive properties (for example, truthfulness), if one ignores the central personality traits - attitude towards people.

The influence of temperament on abilities

Temperament, as well as abilities, is remarkable due to the qualitative features of such mental processes as perception, thinking and memory. Temperament, to a certain extent, influences the development of a person's abilities, in particular, the pace, excitability, reaction speed, and others.

Thanks to the ability of a person to manage his individual mental and physical states, the ability to maintain them at a certain level develops.

This helps to maintain harmony between feelings and words. Such skills help people to enter into some kind of relationship with other individuals.

How do people with different temperaments behave?

The choleric is constantly aware of not only his own unique dignity, but has a sense of superiority. In dealing with people, he constantly burdens himself with the role of a leader, imposes his own rules and often behaves extremely sharply. He is quick-tempered, shows emotional incontinence, which constantly becomes a source of conflict and intense interactions between the people around him.

The phlegmatic does not converge well with strangers and is rarely distracted by external stimuli. In relationships, he is always balanced, calm, and has a stable mood, does not initiate quarrels. However, he does not immediately forget the failures, they can be considered inanimate, but stuck in the mind of the phlegmatic. Mistakes distract him from resolving issues, hinder development.


The sanguine person is notable for his kindness, willingness to help out, easily establishes contacts. He manages to set a good relationship easily. The sanguine person quickly forgets grievances, relatively easily experiences failures.

The melancholic is constantly embarrassed, he is uncomfortable in a new environment. Even a new environment can exert mental pressure on him. According to his individual characteristics, he is more closed than open and can avoid communication with unfamiliar people.

Temperament, character, abilities and the desire for development contribute to the expansion of the range of actions, skills and abilities. All of them can be put on the “I can do” list and counted among the things that you and other people are capable of.

1) Are the following statements correct?

A. A person can determine what he is by comparing himself with other people.

B. Self-knowledge allows you to identify in a person his most important features, the essence of his "I".

    1) only A is true

    2) only B is true

    3) both statements are correct

    4) both statements are wrong

2) Draw “rays” to the sun, each ray is a trait of your personality, a quality of your character. Sign each beam.

3) Fill in the table.

    I can, I want to learn

4) Read an excerpt from V. S. Vysotsky's poem "I don't love."

Write what you don't like and you love.

    I really don't like it when animals are hurt on the streets, but at the same time I don't like dogs without muzzles!

    I also don’t like boring and uninteresting lessons, but I really like computer games and still listen to music, but do not like to watch the news on TV.

5) Set concepts between concepts and their definitions: for each element given in the first column, select an element from the second column

Write in the table the selected numbers under the corresponding letters.

6) One of the wisest people of ancient Athens, Socrates, said: “I know that I know nothing! Others don't even know that." Why do you think Socrates said that? How do you understand his statement? Can we conclude that Socrates had low self-esteem?

    Socrates was doing well with self-esteem, rather, he very ironically assessed his own knowledge, because the more we learn about something, the wider around our circle of knowledge the circle of what we do not yet know, because you can know the world endlessly, it is huge, and This is not enough human life!

    Socrates said this because only one thing can be known for certain - the more we know, the more we do not know!

    In addition, Socrates says that “others do not even know this”, which means that by comparing himself with them, he understands that even his knowledge is closer to the truth than others, which means that everything is in order with self-esteem.

7) Mark the correct judgments (with the sign ˅ or +).

8) Read the parable from the Bible about the talents.

Talent in the Ancient East and Ancient Greece is a monetary unit and a unit of weight.

Briefly write down the meaning of this parable.

    Meaning is in last words: to those who have it is given and multiplied, from those who do not have what is taken away. If you do nothing, do not develop your abilities in any way, do not try to take advantage of a favorable situation, any opportunity, nothing will change in better side: you will forever “wait for the weather by the sea”, you will not achieve your goal, but you will only lose it.

a) What does the expression "bury your talent in the ground" mean today?

    This expression means the inability or unwillingness to take advantage of favorable conditions. Do not develop your abilities if they are high in something, or simply miss a very favorable time for some business.

b) What talents do you have?

    I'm very good memory and I'm a fast learner, I'm also good and quick with computers.

9) Praise yourself in writing for completing previous assignments.

    I have come a long way, having already read two chapters of the textbook and answered all the tasks in the notebook. I have a very broad outlook, so for writing the works I did not use standard clichés, but different sources. I think that I will do well this year with the social studies subject, and I will be able to get a very high score at the end of the year.

10) Using the textbook, additional sources of information and personal experience, try to make some tips for friends on the topic: "How to increase self-esteem."

  • 1. You need to be very careful comparing yourself with friends, it is better to compare yourself with yourself, with yourself in the past.

    1. You need to outline some kind of action plan for the day, for example, and stick to it (but a plan is also suitable for any business, for example, do homework until 6 pm during the week). Break it into parts and mentally praise yourself for the fulfillment of each part - after all, you were able to achieve the fulfillment of such and such a point!
    2. Set yourself achievable goals (you should not dream of getting a Nobel in history, because they don’t give it), but becoming the best in the class in this subject is quite realistic.
    3. You need to explore yourself, understand your strengths and weaknesses, and try to pull up the latter and develop the former even stronger.
    4. Finding a group of like-minded people and working with them as a team will allow you to relax with people and better focus on achieving your goals.
    5. You should also often say to yourself: “I can handle it”, “I can do it”, “I will succeed”.
    6. You should also allow yourself to make mistakes, there is nothing wrong with mistakes, after all, we learn best from them. The one who makes mistakes, but corrects, understands and corrects better than the one who gets everything right the first time.
    7. You should always try something new, firstly, you can find what you do best, and secondly, this is a great exercise for developing abilities.

Learning to recognize and evaluate ourselves

Give yourself an assessment by making the following comparisons: "I am like everyone else", "I am not like everyone else."

Knowing yourself and evaluating your capabilities, try to follow the following rules:

Believe in yourself, don't think about failures all the time! Whoever thinks about them all the time, he endures them.

Forget the words “impossible,” “I can’t,” “it doesn’t work,” “I can’t handle it.”

Assess your abilities correctly. Use them to be successful.

Show your dignity! Surprise those around you! This will give you respect and increase your self-esteem. For example, prepare and tell in a literature lesson Interesting Facts from the life of a writer, poet; in a biology lesson, amazing features of animal life, etc.

Learn to analyze your actions, that is, to understand the reasons for this or that behavior, the changes that have occurred in yourself. Find the courage to admit your mistakes and failures.

Avoid extremes: excessive self-doubt (“I have no talents. I am not capable of anything”) or excessive self-confidence (“I am a genius and I can do anything”). Remember Dunno, who took on any business: drive a car, compose poetry, draw. And why didn't he succeed?

The path to a dream is always difficult!

Dream! Remember that a dream is an interest that makes you succeed in any business, and success helps to fulfill a dream. A lot depends on you!

Self-hypnosis helps to maintain self-confidence and change your behavior for the better (an attempt to give yourself the necessary settings). Come up with and use the necessary forms for this (for example, “I am in better control of myself every day”, “I can not be irritated and be calm in communication”, “I will succeed”, etc.).

Can you always force yourself to sit down at your desk and do an unloved lesson, get up half an hour earlier to do exercises?

Suppose you assessed your strong-willed qualities and made a firm decision: I want to become more collected and strong-willed person! In the desire to change, do not seek to solve all your problems at once, get rid of all the shortcomings in one fell swoop. Set a specific and clear goal (for example, simple - to water flowers daily or complex - to master English language). Make a list of near and far tasks, a program for their solution. Be sure to measure the goal and opportunities (the reality of self-esteem).

Belief in yourself is the basis of success in working on yourself. Set yourself tasks that would have a high probability of success. The goal can be thought out, the main links of future work are determined, but this does not guarantee against failures. Be ready for them. Failure is not a defeat, but an inevitable stage hard work self-knowledge and self-improvement.

Complete the tasks in the drawings, determine your place among family members, friends. With whom do you prefer to consult, to whom do you tell about your joys? Who are your friends and why are you friends with them? Try to evaluate and distinguish yourself from others.
