THE SELF AND ITS DEVELOPMENT

WEEK6 LESSON 1
NATURE OF THE SELF IN PSYCHOLOGY,

THE NOTION OF THE SELF REFERS TO A

PERSON'S EXPERIENCE AS A SINGLE,
UNITARY, AUTONOMOUS BEING THAT IS
SEPARATE FROM OTHERS, EXPERIENCED
WITH CONTINUITY THROUGH TIME AND
PLACE.
THE EXPERIENCE OF THE SELF INCLUDES
CONSCIOUSNESS OF ONE'S PHYSICALITY AS
WELL AS ONE'S INNER CHARACTER AND
EMOTIONAL LIFE.
FOR EXAMPLE, BELIEFS SUCH AS "I AM
A GOOD FRIEND" OR "I AM A KIND
PERSON" ARE PART OF AN OVERALL
SELF-CONCEPT. OTHER EXAMPLES OF
SELF-CONCEPT INCLUDE: HOW YOU
VIEW YOUR PERSONALITY TRAITS, SUCH
AS WHETHER YOU ARE AN EXTROVERT
OR INTROVERT
What aspects contribute to the nature of the self?

Personality traits, abilities, likes and dislikes,

your belief system or moral code, and the
things that motivate you — these all contribute
to self-image or your unique identity as a person.
People who can easily describe these aspects of
their identity typically have a fairly strong sense of
who they are.

The Origins of Self explores the role selfhood
plays in defining both human society and
each individual in that society. It considers
the genetic and cultural origins of self, the
role that self plays in socialization and
language, and the types of selves we
generate in our individual journeys to and
through adulthood.
What Is Self Development? ​

Self development is the process of learning

new
  things and building new skills—skills
that help us increase our chances of success,
achieving our goals, and manifesting our
dreams.
WHAT IS SELF-DEVELOPMENT

WHAT GOALS YOU WANT TO SET, HERE

DEVELOPMENT GOALS: MAKE BETTER
USE OF YOUR TIME MANAGEMENT
SKILLS AND MANAGE YOURSELF
BETTER. STOP PROCRASTINATING. PUT
LIMITS ON YOUR SOCIAL MEDIA USAGE.
WHY IS SELF-DEVELOPMENT IMPORTANT?

SELF-IMPROVEMENT HELPS ENHANCE
STRENGTHS, IMPROVE MENTAL
HEALTH, AND EVEN HEAL
RELATIONSHIPS. SOME WAYS OF SELF-
IMPROVEMENT INCLUDE SIMPLE TASKS
SUCH AS READING A BOOK, TRYING
SOMETHING NEW, MEDIATING, OR EVEN
WAKING UP EARLY.
IN CONCLUSION, IT SHOULD BE
STATED THAT THE DEVELOPMENT OF
THE SELF IS AN IMPORTANT PART OF
ADEQUATE CO-EXISTENCE WITH
SOCIETY. SELF-DISCOVERY SHOULD
NOT NECESSARILY TO CHANGE
PERSONAL BELIEFS AND VALUES TO
MEET SOCIAL CONCERNS AND
REQUIREMENTS AND FIT IN THE
EXISTING CULTURAL ENVIRONMENT.
SOCIETY NOT ONLY FULFILS HIS
PHYSICAL NEEDS AND DETERMINES
HIS SOCIAL NATURE BUT ALSO
DETERMINES HIS PERSONALITY
AND GUIDES THE COURSE OF
DEVELOPMENT OF HUMAN MIND.
DEVELOPMENT OF HUMAN MIND AND
SELF IS POSSIBLE ONLY LIVING IN
SOCIETY.
