Self theory or concept is basically how we perceive ourselves, our way of doing anything, how we behave infront of others, how
we act in our daily life and so on. So lets take an example, if I believe that I did a good deed when doing something then this
belief of mine comes under self concept. Self concept helps us to know who we are, how we are, are we good or not?, and other
similar type of questions.
Self concept also develops as we grow older and older, our knowledge of our own self is more detailed and organized when we
grow older cause when we get old we would have spent more time with ourselves, getting to know oneself more accurately. As we
live on, we learn new things about ourselves which will surprise and excite anyone.
So according to Humanist psychologist Carl Rogers, there are three parts of self theory which are listed and briefly described
below:
1. Ideal self : So what is an Ideal self? As per my understanding ideal self is the self which a person aspires to be. So it is
basically a person’s perfect picture of himself which he wants to be like.
2. Self-image : Self image is simply how you see yourself, this image is how you know yourself and how you recognize yourself.
It includes persons physical appearance and his personalities.
3. Self-esteem : Self esteem also can be understood as self respect is simply how much we respect and value ourselves.

Kolb’s theory also known as learning theory which was introduced by Psychologist David Kolb is the theory which explains or
describes how we learn or acquire knowledge. So this theory explains the process of how a person learns, there are basically four
stages, first and foremost the things a person experiences will act as the observations, then in the next theory the person now
starts to thoroughly reflect and think what he has observed from the experience and then he comes to the conclusion of what the
thing he experienced might be. Then in the third step the person uses his mind by being creative and interpretational and all and
enhances and understands the information even more and will now have a concrete idea about it. So lastly the person uses the
information and applies it in his day to day life to see the result of the information that he gained from this thought process, so
like sharing the information, using them in your works etc are some examples of application of these information. Even though
the process seems long we do it instantly in our day to day life, we might also do it in a matter of second also.
