Example: if we think others see us as clever, we will think of ourselves in the same way. But if we feel they think of us as clumsy, then that is how we will see ourselves. The I and the Me Mead's fourth point is that by taking the role of the other, we become self-aware. Another way of saying this is that the self has two parts. One part of the self operates as subject, being active and spontaneous, called the "I". The other part of the sale works as an object, the way we imagine others see us, the "Me".
