Inflexible Identities Stunt Personal Growth

Characterizing yourself as a specific someone can give meaning and a sense of purpose to your life, but don’t get fooled into thinking it’s who you really are. Trying to uphold and maintain an image can be limiting and cause you to not even try to develop interests and talents that don’t fit into the role. It can separate you from others and cause feelings of superiority and inferiority. When it comes to the identity card, if yours keeps you inside too small a box…

Don’t play it.
