forces=
1) ID= our most PRIMITIVE DRIVES AND URGES FROM BIRTH (can be linked to
impulses and urges early greek philo)
2) EGO: rational part of our personality, this is what others see, balance the demands
of the ID and SUPEREGO
3) SUPEREGO= the moral compass that tells us how we are to behave this is
developed as a child socialize and learns from others
