“Keep your identity small.”
― Paul Graham @paulg
Your identity is everything. It's YOU!
Losing identity can be a long process over months:
• event or trauma
• change in workplace
• loss of a job or profession
Your identity is what separates you from everyone else.

Your identity is everything. It's YOU!
Losing identity can be a long process over months:
• event or trauma
• change in workplace
• loss of a job or profession
Your identity is what separates you from everyone else.
A self-identity what makes us stand out as unique in this crowded world.
Once identity is threatened, you become:
- defensive
- non-productive
- resistant to change
What you think you become. Your thoughts shape your identity.
And in turn, your identity shapes your actions!

What you think you become. Your thoughts shape your identity.
And in turn, your identity shapes your actions!
1. Define
Any object, in physics, has 2 factors:
- magnitude
- direction
Knowing where it's heading matters!
Your identity is your vector:
• your path
• your direction
• your destination
Note: what you do, why you do!
The identity helps you sharpen your answers in life.

The identity that you carry is your:
- personality
- uniqueness
- life goals & dreams
- distinct things you stand for
If you want to be successful, you can't go with the flow on everything.
Don't be someone who follows the rules.
Be someone with personality,
Identity!

2. Choose
Identity comes from choices:
- on a daily basis
- the actions we take
- time with people we spend
- the principles we prefer to defend
Whatever it is, you should choose to build to an identity that signals to the world your:
• core values
• unique choices

You always have a choice
Take ownership for your:

You shape your own identity
That has nothing to do with genetics or inheritance from your parents
Don't blame others for life failures!
Learn to steel your nerves!

3. Reinvent
Life moves quickly.
Decisions you take and the choices you make will impact your life.
At some point, you may feel stuck and ask: “Is this it?”
The choices you make always have consequences. Change is inevitable.
But you can “reinvent” yourself.
Change vision.
