Our own responses and emoitonal reactions to situations play an important role in self-efficacy.

4. Evaluating: How well did I do?
How well did I do, what worked/didn't work, what do I need to do to improve?
5. Creating: What should I do next?

What can I apply this to in the future? Drawing connections between different contexts.
What can I do to improve the outcome next time?
