NOTE

Action Defines Identity

People often get caught up in labels or nouns, forgetting that true identity is defined by actions. Aspiring to be something, like a writer, requires consistent effort and daily practice in that field. Without tangible actions, such as writing regularly, one cannot claim that identity. This principle applies to other aspects of life as well; for example, being kind means actively demonstrating kindness to others. This emphasis on action creates a strong moral foundation, which is essential in building robust brands and compelling narratives. Ultimately, one's identity is not just about aspirations but is built upon daily actions and behaviors.
