This is an abstract on self development while deploying some of the models in reflective writing.
We learn by experiences which allow us to absorb what we read, hear and feel and help to do the activity and mainly interact with the people which help us to socialize. Reflection is a thinking of an extended period which are interlinked with the recent experience it also involves commonalities, differences and interrelation beyond their superficial elements reflection is a form of problem solving that chained several ideas together by linking with its predecessor in order to resolve the issues which are raised.

Excerpt from the Book
INTRODUCTION
We learn by experiences which allow us to absorb what we read, hear and feel and help to do the activity and mainly interact with the people which help us to socialize (Wertenbroch&Nabeth, 2000). Reflection is an thinking of an extended period which are interlinked with the recent experience it also involves commonalities, differences and interrelation beyond their superficial elements (Dewey 1933) reflection is a form of problem solving that chained several ideas together by linking with its predecessor in order to resolve the issues which are raised.
According to Hatton & Smith (1995) they identified four essential issue which concern reflection That We should learn to frame and reframe complex or ambiguous problems, test out various interpretations, and then modify our actions consequently. Our thoughts should be extended and systematic by looking back upon our actions sometime after they have taken place. Certain activities labelled as reflective, such as the use of journals or group discussions following practical experiences, are often not directed towards the solution of specific problems. We should consciously account for the wider historic, cultural, and political values or beliefs in framing practical problems to arrive at a solution. This is often identified as critical reflection. However, the term critical reflection, like reflection itself, appears to be used loosely, some taking it to mean no more than constructive self-criticism of one's actions with a view to improvement.
