The Knowledge Project with Shane Parrish

NOTE

Having Multifaceted Identities

The insight emphasizes the importance of having multifaceted identities, where individuals can derive meaning and define themselves through multiple layers of abstraction. By having deeper layers of identity beyond just one's profession, such as being a lawyer, doctor, or tech worker, these deeper layers can provide a sense of security and resilience in times of change or adversity. This multifaceted identity serves as a safety net, ensuring that one's self-worth is not solely dependent on a single aspect of identity, mitigating the risk of feeling entirely stripped of value when faced with challenges like accidents or chronic illnesses that may impact one's primary identity.
