The Identity Trap Hurting High Achievers
The world taught you that your achievements define you…
Which is a dangerous lie to believe.
Your identity is not:
What you do
How much money you make
The goals you’ve accomplished
What matters is:
What values you live each day
How do you make other people feel
Who you show up as on your average Tuesday
Entangling your self-worth with accomplishments leaves you at the mercy of the inevitably inconsistent world around you.
It manifests as:
Self-doubt
Fear of failure
Unhealthy striving
Defensiveness to criticism
And inconsistent performance
It’s time to break free from this trap.
Your worth is innate; value is merely perceived.
Don’t confuse the two.
