Assessing Your Self‐Regulation Skills
The following questions are designed to help you identify target areas to work on to build your
self-regulation skills. Review the following questions to identify personal strengths and opportunities for
growth:
RESILIENCE – SELF-REGULATION 2
1. Can identify the specific emotions you are feeling? For example, do you recognize when you are
feeling anxious or angry? Are there some emotions you are better at identifying in yourself than
other emotions?
2. Can you identify the emotions someone else is feeling? Are you sensitive to nuances? For
example, do you notice when a friend or relative is reacting angrily because they are feeling
anger plus embarrassment, instead of just recognizing the anger element? You will be able to
provide more effective reactions and support is you can correctly identify which specific
emotions others are having.
3. Do you have the ability to begin and persist with the pursuit of goals even when you feel
anxious? How do you react to anxiety? If you can tolerate feeling anxious, you will be less likely
to avoid trying new things, more likely to try things a second time if things did not go well the
first time, and less likely to abandon projects before they have become successful.
