Institute For Inspiration & Self Development Scope

STAGE 1: INFANCY- As we can SEE it all starts from birth itself. So at this stage, a child wants to develop trust and that happens only if we provide love and care to the child, he will be able to develop the feeling of trust, and if not then fear and this will lead to negative development. Striking a balance will lead to hope in the child
STAGE 2: EARLY CHILDHOOD In this stage, Erikson believed it is totally important to become slightly independent and do small things on their own. This will lead to autonomy but, if failed then this will result in shame. If the kid can strike a balance, it will lead to the feeling of willingness in the child & he/she can act within limits. STAGE 3: CHILDHOOD Starting of the social interaction will be at this stage of life. Children go out and play, Children who are independent at this stage will be capable and able to lead others and those who fail are left with a sense of guilt, self-doubt, and lack of initiative. STAGE 4: CHILDHOOD (SCHOOL) Social development happens with people of the same age group and, hence Successful balance will lead to a sense of competence, while failure results in feelings of inferiority. STAGE 5: ADOLESCENCE At this stage, children will explore their independence & develop a sense of self. The ones who will receive proper encouragement will emerge from this stage, and they will have their own identity while, those who will not emerge from this stage, will be confused and a sense of insecurity will prevail. STAGE 6: YOUNG ADULTHOOD At this stage, love and partnership will come into our lives and enable us to build strong relationships. But, if we fail, it will lead to isolation and loneliness. STAGE 7: ADULTHOOD At this stage in life, people are at the position where they lead in both personal and professional life, and hence if the attitude is correct and handled gracefully will lead to a feeling of contributing and productivity. Whereas, failure to do so will lead to unproductive and uninvolved. STAGE 8: MATURITY At this stage, people gain maturity with what they have done in adulthood. They have a sense of fulfilment and satisfaction. On the other hand, incapability will lead to regrets and bitterness.
