  your social character or abilities
  
• your physical appearance and your body image
  
• your thinking

Your self concept can change because you see and understand things differently depending on your feelings, beliefs and attitude. Self awareness is a two-way process as your feelings and beliefs affect your self concept and the opposite is also true.

Your self concept is your understanding of unchanging characteristics you have:

Social

• are you sociable?  Read being yourself socially
• are you shy?
• are you confident?

Physical

• are you tall?
• are you fat?
• are you handsome?

Psychological

• are you pessimistic or optimistic?
• are you a happy?
• can you make decisions easily?

Yes. By changing:

• your attitudes
• your moods 
• your values
• your beliefs

If you change your attitude or your thinking you can improve your self concept and your self esteem as well.

Your self concept is just one factor among many that have an impact on your self esteem and self confidence.
