How do you know when you’re making an identity choice??
When you show up in your identity even when there is no reward.
i started this YT channel 3 years ago because i wanted to talk about the spiritual journey of entrepreneurship, voice, identity, and being paid to speak vs what I usually talk about.
But I abandoned it because it wasn’t giving me dopamine hits. I had Low views & Low engagement.
I decided to revive it because I’m making an identity choice.
I spent 3 days on this video. 😓😓😓
Idea. Structure. Editing. Learning new software.
I did all of that KNOWING it will likely get very low views—possibly zero—in the first 24 hours.
I posted it anyway.
I am who I say I am now. Views or not.
So This is what identity alignment looks like:
• Choosing the timeline, not the outcome
• Acting without needing a reward
• Creating even when no one is watching (*very important)
• Letting the identity come first
That’s the work.
P.S. If you feel inclined, check out the video in your free time.
