WORKSHOP SESSION 
(15 MIN.) 
 List 5 positive and 5 negative traits you 
have 
 Share within your group
HOW YOU HAVE DEVELOPED YOUR SELF-CONCEPT? 
As a child, you were vulnerable to false negative judgments from 
authority figures and you may well have internalized them as beliefs. 
1.Your parents, teachers, and authority figures judged you in some way. 
For example: “You look like your father”. “You are too short”, "Too fat", "too 
slow", etc. 
As a child, you believed all these judgments. You didn't even question them. At that 
time, you couldn't contradict authority. Children are vulnerable to accepting false 
negative judgments from authority figures even if they are harmful to self-esteem.
2. You then internalized the judgments and they turned into 
a part of howyou see yourself. 
"I am too short" became something like: “If I am too short I can't 
play baseball”. 
This created a stream of negative self-talk that influences how you see 
yourself and hurts your esteem. It is natural; you believed what they said 
was true, for as a child who were you to argue with them?
3. But, what is the truth about all these conclusions?. The truth is 
that being short is not an obstacle. Following the example given 
above: 
"If I am too short I cannot play basketball" (judgment you received) 
became an internalized belief. 
• The only reference point you had was others' opinions. 
• All these criticisms created an internal confusion in you about how you 
see yourself, and today it is a poor image that undermines your self 
esteemand confidence. 
• It is important, then, to start to become more aware of these beliefs 
about you.
HOW TO IMPROVE YOUR SELF-CONCEPT? 
 Identify and recognize your strengths to 
improve confidence. 
Learn to praise yourself 
Develop a positive attitude 
Spend time with supportive friends
CONCLUSIONS 
• Self Concept is not fixed permanently. Part of it is dynamic and 
changing. You can learn to improve your self concept. To improve you 
must change , is a process that occurs over life time. 
• On the other hand, if you were capable of clarifying all the negative 
critics and judgment your received, you can create a positive image of 
you and therefore a good self esteem. 
How?. By accepting who you are . Letting go of your past through forgiveness 
of yourself and others. And building self esteem and confidence.
Improvement starts with learning to accept and love yourself . 
Improvement also means being acknowledged and loved by 
others. It does not matter were you are at the present moment 
or what is your level of self esteem, what matters is that you can 
change and improve your self concept. 
Focus on your strengths recognize your good qualities and be 
more positive. 
How to Know Yourself and improve your ability to see yourself 
clearly.
THANK YOU
