BSHS/311

Personal Model of Helping I take pride in everything that I do and strive to give my all to the people who need my help, and this is the basis of my personal model of helping. I cannot give someone only part of my effort because the individual may not take me serious and not be able to use the help that I am offering. My goal in offering this help is to assist them in overcoming any negative situation they are trying to get out of. People reach out for help and when they do so they want the best help that they can find because they can seek a positive resolution. I know that circumstances in life can take a toll on a person, and these circumstances cause them to be in the situation that they are seeking help for but to change their behavior and improve themselves they need to give 100% as well as the people who are offering help to them.
How and why and you formed this viewpoint This viewpoint was formed because there are individuals who seek help from professional counselors every day because they believe that these professionals can get them back of track with their lifestyle and overcome the struggles of hardship they have been facing. If this individual does not believe that the help they are getting from the professional is successful than it would seem that either the professional or the individual seeking help is not giving 100% effort on their part in order to get positive results. There are many different reasons an individual seeks therapy; it can be gambling problems, drug or alcohol addiction, abuse, health issues, family issues, or even death of a family member. A professional counselor needs to be prepared for any reason that a client may seek help from them and be ready and willing to offer them appropriate help of treatment.

View of helping My view of helping is a result of a person taking pride in their profession of helping others and them going the extra mile and giving the effort necessary to

    When I provide assistance - even it is just a tiny one- , I really feel peace of mind. I still remember a specific experience that I could not give a hand at that time. The story happened when I was seven years old; in my first year in elementary school. There was a girl that was bullied by a group of girls from another class. I empathized with her. I wanted to help her, but I was afraid of that bullying girls too. I used to see her tears felled down over and over, so I always felt guilty toward her because I do not know why I felt that I could help her and stop those girls. When I grow up, I realized that I should not to blame those girls because they were just children; Actually, I think if I would blame anyone, I should blame our teachers. Now, when I think what I could do to help her at that time, I wish that I went to a teacher or to the principal to tell them about what that poor girl was facing. So, I try to help people as I can. I learned that I should not be silent when I see someone suffer; just do what I can do. If I could help, that would be amazing and that what I wanted, but if I could not, at least I…

    Sometimes just seeing other people doing something kind or helpful makes us more willing to help others. People setting good examples of service can inspire for others to help, someone just has to break the ice..One of the key reasons people often fail to take action when help is needed is that they do not notice what is happening until it is too late. It may also be hard to know when someone actually needs help. Another tip to help with this is to have some kind of training of CPR or the Abdominal Thrust by taking first aid classes. People are most likely to help if they are prepare deal with potential emergencies (“How to Overcome the Bystander Effect”).…

    People Helping People

    • 554 Words
    • 3 Pages

    My interpretation of “people helping people” is “people helping people” can be looked at as a selfless act of encouragement to one individual or a whole community. By helping those with a certain need to only get the profit of satisfaction is a fundamental philosophy to keep our society well-endowed and strong as a community. I have personally demonstrated this in my community by participating in my school’s Operation Christmas Child to help children across the world see what a better life is and to help them reach it on earth, and with God. I also volunteered for four summers at our City’s Park’s Program as a junior counselor, watching children and giving them a place to enjoy their summer outside and also educate them as we took field trips to the Corning Museum of Glass. I personally have lived by my own interpretation of the selfless philosophy of “people helping people”…

    I would like to think of myself as someone who is always out to help people. Although, helping people is not an immoral act, over-helping can cause unnecessary stress and anxiety. Also, taking on their problems can result in falling behind in my own work and can lead to problems in the company. As a leader, the Goose Theory of Leadership has taught me to not allow for people to hand off their unwanted problems to me, instead I should work with them and teach them how to find a solution to their problem so they won’t continue to come back with more…

    When I am at best, I help people. I motivate myself and feel motivated when I get to help others. Whether it’s a stranger, colleague, friends, or family, I feel my passion in assisting those in need. As long as it’s within my capability and moral belief that what people ask for help is ethical and legal, I give them my attention and time. I feel happy that I am able to give a hand, and I feel happy to see people become happy with the help I give them. Helping others put smiles on my face and also on them as well. I feel proud of myself that I have the power to help the others. For families and friends, I am always open for help and be supportive.

    Being kind to someone who needs help is a basic human necessity. If someone needs help, for whatever reason, it is up to other individuals to intercede and help. Morally obligated may be a stretch, but when someone needs help there shouldn't be second thoughts about what to do. Whether someone needs a door held open or someone is drowning, helps should always be on the way.…

    There’s a void in my heart that is filled when I help someone. I can’t imagine what it must feel like to have seriously made a difference and change someone’s life. All things considered, my reasoning for wanting to complete such a goal is not just for the “high” I get when I’ve accomplished everything, but because I don’t want people to lose hope. They should have faith that there are people in the world thoughtful and generous enough to lend a hand.…
