Each person has its own character, behavior and personality and knowing the three divisions of
the psyche in psychoanalytic theory which is Id, Ego and Superego. Id, is the completely
unconscious and is the source of psychic energy derived from instinctual needs and drives, while
Ego, serves as the organized conscious mediator between the person and reality especially by
functioning both in the perception of and adaptation to reality and Superego represents
internalization of parental conscience and the rules of society, and functions to reward and
punish through a system of moral attitudes, conscience, and a sense of guilt. Knowing these three
divisions, I realized that this is one of the perfect lessons to learners like me and I was very much
thankful that I encounter this topic. Since it is very helpful of the persons like me, because it
given me an idea how to handle myself and also it serves a guidance to me on how to handle my
Id, Ego and Superego. That is why if we made decisions in our life we must think first before we
act, because if we made the right choices based on our Id, Ego and Superego it will make our life
successful and we will not regret the actions, decisions and verdicts that we made in life.
