Understanding Our Multiple Selves

The concept of having multiple selves is explored, highlighting how different aspects of our personality can emerge in various situations. This idea aligns with the psychological approach known as internal family systems, which suggests that individuals consist of a variety of inner selves that can surface at different times. Recognizing and accepting these differing selves can lead to a deeper understanding of our behavior, and why we may not always act in accordance with our best selves. By acknowledging the presence of these multiple versions, individuals can work towards better managing how they respond and what traits they exhibit in their daily lives.
