WILL BRAINLIEST What factors do you think influence what you feel about yourself? What would help a person develop a more positi
DedPeter [7]

Answer:

The factors that influence what I feel about myself are gender and appearance.

A person can develop a more positive self-concept by becoming contented of himself and not comparing himself to other people.

Explanation:

Self-concept- Generally speaking, self-concept is defined as a person's thought about his own behavior, abilities and characteristics. It can be divided into two, <em>positive self-concept and negative self-concept.</em>

Positive self-concept- A person who values himself has a positive self-concept. It gives the person the ability to cope with different problems involving himself. He often has a big confidence and feels secure.

Negative self-concept- A person who has a hard time accepting criticisms or negative feedback has a negative self-concept. He lacks confidence and is insecure.

For me, <em>gender and appearance influence my self-concept. </em>My gender tells me the positive side of being a woman (since I'm a lady). It gives me awareness on how a good woman should behave in the society. Next, my appearance. As I get older, I realize that I needed to change my fashion according to my age. This affects my self-concept.

In order to have a positive self-concept,<em> </em><em>it is very important to accept your flaws as a person.</em> If you're contented of who you are, you will feel more secure. You also won't get trapped in competing with other people for power and fame. <em>Comparing yourself with others will make you even more distant and insecure.</em>
