Self: When they are born, individuals do not have any idea about who they are. In time, they learn what other people think about them and they learn to think in the same way. (...) According to sociologist George Herbert Mead, the theorist of The Theory of the Social Self, the self is developed by three phases. These phases are the language, the play, and the game. The language phase allows individuals to respond to each other’s opinions or emotions. Emotions like anger or happiness, and opinions about a person or a subject are conveyed through the language. The play phase develops self by developing self-consciousness through role playing. During the role-playing, individuals learn to internalize other people’s perspectives. The game phase develops self by allowing individuals to learn and follow the rules of the activity (the game). Thus, individuals learn that there are rules and regulations to follow in order to be considered successful in an activity.
