1. Healthy Self-Concept

2. Self Talk
 The encouragement or criticism you give yourself
 The Law of Positive Self-Talk states: “You can
change who you are by changing what you say when
you talk to your mind.”
 When do you find yourself talking to yourself?

3. Self-Esteem
 How much you value yourself and your
abilities, skills and accomplishments.
You believe setbacks are temporary.
You have confidence to confront
challenges and overcome them.
 Having good self-esteem will also affect
your overall attitude and the health
choices you make

4. Self-Esteem
 Self-Esteem is a combination of self-image, ideal self, and
Pygmalion-self
 Self Image: what we perceive ourselves to be
 Ideal-self: how we want to be
 Pygmalion-self: our perception of what we believe other people
think of us.
I am not what I think I am
I am not what you think I am
I am what I think you think I am

5. What is Self-Concept?
 A person's self-concept is his knowledge about
himself. Similar to how he can know other people,
and know facts about how they tend to think, and
what they enjoy doing, and what their temperament is
like, he can also know these things about himself.
Some people have much stronger self-concepts than
others, probably because possessing a self-concept
in much detail requires reflection on one's own self
and behavior.

Concept and Self-Esteem
 The key difference between self-concept and
self-esteem is that the addition of feelings.
Self-concept is simply the informational side
of things, where you know facts about what
you are like. Self-esteem is how you feel
about those things you know, like whether
you enjoy the fact that you are talkative at
parties (high self-esteem) or you think that
you are annoying and need to learn to shut
up sometimes (low self-esteem).
