SELF-IDENTITY

All of us are placed in our lives with advantages and disadvantages. If we are to develop our identity, the first step would be to assess our situations objectively and find out what disadvantages we can overcome and what we can not. What we can not, we should just accept. Once you do that you will recognise your identity and that is the self-identity. You can then build on the person you are.
That would be your self or personality development.
