Introduction:

The self is the set of someone's characteristics, such as personality and ability,
that are not physical and make that person different from other people. The sense of self
is defined as the way a person thinks about and views his or her traits, beliefs, and
purpose within the world. It's a truly dynamic and complicated concept because it covers
both the 'inner' and 'outer' self.

This idea can be a little bit confusing, so let's break it down further. You are living and
interacting with the outside world all the time. Whether you are sitting in class, talking with
a friend, or walking your dog, you're doing things that help you define your role in this
world.

Conclusion:
From the interview we conducted we found out that they have different thoughts and different
perspective in their lives. Some people know their self and some people still searching about
their self or who they really are. Some individual the impact of their family influences have a big
impact to their lives like being a strong and overcome their problems because the family they
can support them and guide them to build their self.

If you know yourself, you will come to realize that everything that you need is within you. These
are the thoughts that came in my mind as I reviewed the answers of the interviewees.It takes
continuous self-reflection to get to know who you are. All of the power in the world lies within
each and every one of us.

It is deep within, waiting to be unburied. The interviewees themselves taught me that knowing
thyself needs a lot of courage to discover. An experience to take, and many questions to
conquer. Knowing who you are will always be more important than others knowing who you
are.

Everything that is outside of your own being begins to show itself as it truly is. They are things
that you can mold, bend, and adjust accordingly to fit into your reality. And by that, you'll be
able to know yourself more!
