Adolescence is a stage wherein we tend to
build a “socially constructed sense of self”,
that is our sense of self as influenced by
how others view us. This socially
constructed sense of self is the reason why
we tend to seek approval and acceptance
of other people for a purpose of attaining
sense of belongingness.
Self-Awareness
A state of having the knowledge about our existence as
unique individuals who are able to recognize our values,
beliefs, traits, behaviors and feelings.
Self-awareness is being significantly conscious of what we
are good at while recognizing our flaws, limitations and
imperfections.
Johari Window
Self-Concept
Self-concept is our general awareness about
ourselves, the image that we have of ourselves.
This image is influenced by our interactions with other
people specifically those who are important to us.
Actual Self
• Our self-image, the one we actually see including
attributes like our physical characteristics, personality
traits and social roles. It is how we think and feel, behave
or act.
• Our actual self is built on self-knowledge, which is the
actual genuine information that we have about our
motivations, strengths or weaknesses.
Ideal Self
•Ideal Self is the self that we aspire to be. The
one we hope will possess the characteristics
that we really want to have, like that of the
image above
Self-esteem
• Our overall subjective sense of value or personal worth. That
is how we feel about our strengths and weaknesses.
• If we have healthy self-esteem, we feel good about ourselves.
• If we have low self-esteem, we have the tendency to put a little
value on our ideas and opinions. Likewise, if we have low self-
esteem, we might constantly worry about being not good
enough.
• Moviegoers – the people who only watch, admire and
criticize the movie of their lives. They are the ones who
have absolutely no control of their lives except to just
comment, react and criticize.
• Actors – they do not just watch the movie of their lives,
they act and can control how they portray the character.
However, they don’t have the control over the script.
• Actor-Scriptwriters –do not only watch, do not only
act, but they actually create the whole movie and
determine what they will say, what they will do and how
they will end the movie. They realize they have the huge
control over their life and see to it that the movie will turn
out to be amazing and beautiful.

Editor's Notes

  • #11 Self is the union of elements, namely: Body, thoughts, feelings or emotions and sensations that constitute the individuality and identity of a person. Body constitutes your physical attributes, your health and your posture and poise. Your thoughts, the way you think and how you perceive things around you affect how you feel about them and bring about sensations Emotions, your experience prompt you to act and behave the way you do. The union of these elements make up your character or personality and essentially distinguishes you from others.
  • #12 Knowing and understanding oneself during middle and late adolescence is quite hard at times. As we transition towards becoming an adult, we are expected to be responsible, independent or self-reliant and depend less on our parents. Sometimes we are being surrounded with too much pressure and expectations on how we should behave and act on certain situations.
  • #14 Don’t be bothered If you find yourself asking this question. You are on the right track! It is a normal part of the process that you need to go through as you advance to the next milestone – the adulthood. Once you have a concrete understanding of your entire being, your personality, strengths and weaknesses, you may emerge as a resilient individual who is prepared to be a responsible adult.
  • #15 Once in our life, someone might have said to us “Be yourself!” or “Be true to yourself!” Actually, this is a very great advice. However, it is not as easy as it may seem to stay true to ourselves if we do not know exactly who we really are.
  • #16 The moment we are aware about ourselves, our strengths and weaknesses, only then we can experience ourselves as unique and separate individual beings. If we manage to become aware of who we are, we will become empowered to making changes by building our areas of strengths and at the same time by acknowledging areas of weaknesses where we would like to make improvements
  • #17 Johari Window is a technique that helps people improve self-awareness, interpersonal relationships and opportunity for personal development by giving or receiving feedbacks on each other’s strengths, weaknesses and blind spots. This was developed by American Psychologists Joseph Luft and Harry Ingham in 1955. The name “Johari” is formed from combining their first names.
  • #18 According to Carl Rogers, a humanist psychologist. Self-concept is our general awareness about ourselves, the image that we have of ourselves Carl Rogers believed that our self-concept is made up of three different parts, the actual self, the ideal self and the self-esteem.
  • #19 The moment we go to school, to the mall or to a birthday party, we try looking ourselves in the mirror to check our appearance. What do you see as you look at yourself in the mirror? Do you see your actual self? Or your ideal self?
  • #23 The more we understand ourselves, the more we have the power and ability to take charge of our future. According to Bo Sanchez, part of taking charge of our future is to write a script of our life according to how we want it to be. Who are you among these three people? Do you merely watch, admire and criticize your life and do nothing else? Do you just act and control how you portray the character but don’t have the control over the script? Or do you write, act and create the script and make your life beautiful? By the way, the Producer of the movie is God and He tells you to make your movie beautiful and He will give you all that you need to succeed.
