reflect upon itself, and in the
process develop self-awareness,
become motivated, and then
desire to grow and change for
the better; and are prompted to
mature and improve until

It is therefore, natural for
human beings to develop
towards maturity and fullness”

has been completed for most young people.

future and decisions may be based on their
beliefs, desires, and hopes.
