Self-concept is how you perceive your behavior, abilities, and unique characteristics. Self is the totality of the individual, consisting of all characteristic attributes, conscious and unconscious, mental and physical. It affects the ways we look at our bodies, how we express ourselves and interact with our friends, and it even influences how we make decisions. It is important in determining someone's personality. Personality refers to individual differences in characteristic patterns of thinking, feeling, and behaving. Self-concept plays an important part in our overall wellness. Apart from its basic reference to personal identity, being, and experience, the term's use in psychology is wide-ranging. Personality is the product of social interaction in group life. The study of self and personality helps us understand not only who we are, but also our uniqueness as well as our similarities with others. By understanding self and personality, we can understand our own as well as others' behavior in diverse settings.
