The Johari Window

This is a test we do in class recently- The Johari Window.

It actually helps me to know myself and my relationship with people around me better so I can determine how far and how deep that relationship can grow and develop in future.

First of all, think of ONE target person. (any person will do)

In the 'Open' column, fill in things you freely shared with that person.

eg: hometown, age or any secrets that you told that person

In the 'Blind' column, fill in things that you only realized after being told by that person.

eg: your appearance at that person's perception, your characteristics at that person's point of view

In the 'Hidden' column, fill in things that you know about yourself but that person does not know.

eg: you are an alcoholic, you smoke, you are easily offended

In the 'Unknown' column, fill in things that both you and the person does not know.

eg: you have a fatal disease and both of you don't know how long can you live,

Try filling up this window with a different target person,

 for example, family members, friends and acquaintances. 

You will realize that this window quadrants will expand and contract in different shapes depending on how deep the relationship you build with that person.

Have fun!
