Deep dives

Understanding Self-Perception Theory

Self-perception theory suggests that individuals develop their beliefs, abilities, and feelings by observing their own behaviors and deriving conclusions about themselves. This introspective process encourages individuals to question their actions and motivations, allowing for greater self-awareness. Many people unconsciously adhere to fixed identities, claiming they cannot change due to longstanding beliefs or behaviors. However, recognizing that these beliefs are choices made over time can empower individuals to reshape their personal narratives and enact meaningful changes in their lives.
