In light of this learning, I will initiate ways to keep my energy level up during future advocacy works. According to Cross and Parker (2004), people with high energy are more productive, creative and they have a positive influence on other people. With such high energy, people stimulate each other by continuously promoting demand for effort, and this eventually produces positive outcomes for the event. Thus, these indicate that having high levels of energy is important in creating a successful event. I can maintain my higher level of energy by spicing up the group dynamics through ways such as competing with my groupmates to see who can bring the greatest number of students to the booth. This way, my group members and I will be able to maintain our high energy levels in a fun and effective way.
To address the second issue, I will try to think more critically about how my advocacy could play an important role during future advocacy works. I will be more prudent and consider the usefulness of the information that I am raising awareness about. For example, in relation to this PG roadshow, I could consider the fact that having knowledge on where to seek help amongst teenagers is important as we can use this knowledge to help people around us. As it might be difficult to admit that one needs to seek help for their PG issue, it might be more important that people around that individual have the knowledge on how to help him. Hence, this places importance on having knowledge about where to seek help and that my advocacy is beneficial.
