concept are less likely to
experience depression, anxiety,
and other mental health issues.

concept, they are more likely to

CHARACTERISTICS OF A
PERSON WITH A
HEALTHY PERSONALITY
AND AN IDEAL FILIPINO
CITIZEN
 Self-awareness
A person with a healthy personality and an
ideal Filipino citizen has a high level of self-
awareness. A positive self-concept enables
them to acknowledge their strengths and
accept their limitations.
 Confidence
A positive self-concept is crucial in building
confidence because it helps a person trust
their instincts and make decisions that align
with their values.
 Resilience
A positive self-concept helps a person
develop resilience because it enables them to
see setbacks as temporary and not a
reflection of their self-worth.
 Empathy
A person with a healthy personality and an
ideal Filipino citizen is empathetic and
compassionate towards others. A positive
self-concept allows a person to have
empathy towards themselves, which in turn
enables them to empathize with others.
