For many reasons, it can be difficult for people to know who they really are. In this episode, Dr. Kashey argues that trying to find the ego or self is a legitimate way to help cure self-esteem, allowing self-respect to take place philosophically. To expound on these, he talks about leveraging 15 things that make self. Among these, we have the dangers of self-identifying, the innate uniqueness of human beings, intellectual awareness, changing personality to some degree on purpose, self-control, the power to have self-confidence and how to increase it, and the rational and flexible preferences associated with value. We also learn about the two innate desires of self-assumed by the SRO model and how SRO cycles interact interpersonally.
