Master Minds: Exploring Identity Through the Relationship with Compassion and Quiet Ego

Individuals have many qualities which define who they are. Identity has become an all-encompassing term, used to describe the characteristics of an individual, and how they process incoming information. Although the concept of identity has been around for a century, it's relationship to other constructs continues to be explored to gain further clarity. My research delves into identity's relationship with positive psychology concepts, including the compassion one has for others and the self, in addition to the novel concept of quiet ego. Examining these concepts can create a foundation to work towards growth, reflection, and mindfulness.
