KEY TAKEAWAYS

Identity is created - It is our story. It is what defines us. It could be something that life imposes upon us. It is a collection of the disparate elements of life that we experience and adopt as part of our own story.Why do I think this way? Why do I feel this way? These two questions, asked at any time in our lives can provide insight when needed. The first step to healthy change is awareness.Life can be challenging and painful. The key to moving through these periods is to accept these challenges as building blocks for our character.Self-development grows in far more effective ways if we challenge our identity. Identify our greatest strengths, understand how these elements have shaped us, and then experiment in areas you'd consider to be the polar opposite.If you can shift the way you see yourself, and the way you operate, then it will absolutely enforce the way you live and work until you reach it.By constantly placing building blocks in our lives, markers to show our progress, then we do hit walls, when we do feel as though we aren't moving, we can step back onto these building blocks to remind ourselves how far we've come, and how well we're doing.

BEST MOMENTS

‘In different environments, and different situations, I've come to learn to question why I'm feeling this way'

‘Life is going to be beat you to your knees if you let it. It's not how hard you can hit, but how hard you get hit and keep moving forwards'

‘If you want to challenge yourself, then start a business!'

‘People will see us in the way that we present ourselves'
