Hi friend, I want to share the most dependable way to discover your identity briefly. If you read my immediate past blog here, you will see the thought process that helped me figure it out. So, today's conversation will be more precise and short.
Firstly, do you agree that the most common answer to "who you are" is a description of what you do?
If you disagree, let me know in the comments.
Secondly, Have you noticed that what you do does not stay the same throughout your life?
You could get another job, start another business, get promoted to another position based on your skills and competencies, and most recently, you could change to a completely different industry due to tech advancement.
So, if you do different things at different stages of life, does that mean your identity has changed?
Based on these questions, I hope you can agree with me that who you are should be defined based on the things that never change no matter the stage of life you are in.
The two things I discovered that never change is
- Your birth Identity - Your body and looks, your family and country(s) of citizenship
- Your Spiritual identity - Your Source, Your beliefs, Your Character
Your body is not your driving force, you have a spirit that sustains your life.
It's funny how the two constants in your life that give you physical Identity all start small and continue to grow.
- Your body started as a cell
- Your Spiritual awareness starts and grows likewise
If I stop this conversation here and give you time to think, we should be good.
But I am tempted to add a few more lines.
You may never fully exhaust the potential your identity carries, because life is prosperous. It does not stop.
Based on this, you can do more than one thing in life I encourage you to explore this amazing opportunity to be alive in a body that houses a spirit that enables you to create prosperity.
