2. misbelief. The idea that one should be thoroughly competent, adequate, and achieving in all possible respects if one is to consider oneself worthwhile

A. Thoughts. To be a good teacher, I must motivate my students. In general, the teachers of  Basque must achieve our students to love Basque. We must  be inspirational for them, in order that our students    love Basque instead of hate it. The Basque is not needed to be learnt as another language, it is different.

B.  Feelings: I'm afraid to fail my students. I'm afraid to fail as a teacher. I'm afraid of running out of students in class.
D. Behavior. I am anxious about evaluation. I play an acquiescence role.



The idea that we should be thoroughly competent, intelligent, and achieving in all possible respects. Instead of the idea that we would better do rather than always need to do well, and accept ourselves as quite imperfect creatures, who have general human limitations and specific falibilities.

No human being can be fully competent in all aspects and in most of them. Trying to achieve success is fine, but  forcing ourselves  to succeed is the best way to make ourselves  feel incompetent and incapable. It brings us  most of stress and psychosomatic illness . 

It is more desirable to focus on enjoying the process more than on the result. When we try to act well is more for our own satisfaction  than to please others. We must question  often ourselves  if  we are struggling to achieve a specific objective, or to please others. In the struggle to achieve our goals we must accept our mistakes and confusion instead of being terrified by them. We must accept  that everything is not under our control  and  accept the fact that human beings are not perfect.

Apart from that,  am I responsible for my student´s feelings? Is there any solution to solve both, students'  lack of motivation, and govermnent´s rules and bureaucracy?



I realized that this is the second time I have this 2nd misbelief. In fact, in the following test I scored a high puntuation, which means that this is one of my "cognitive style". 




I hate to fail at anything. 1 2 3 4 5 6

I can enjoy on activity itself  without matter how good I am at doing them. 6 5 4 3 2 1
