#1 Psychologist: Toolkit to Accomplish Your Hardest Goals
The Knowledge Project with Shane Parrish
Identity foreclosure - get to the why underneath
Identity foreclosure refers to prematurely committing to an identity without fully exploring other possibilities. This can lead to feeling disoriented when that identity is lost. It is essential to attach your sense of identity not to what you do, but to why you do it. By understanding the root of your passions and finding meaning and worth there, you can navigate life's changes without feeling completely lost. This shift from focusing on what you are to why you do things can help you find expressions of yourself in various pursuits and mediums, leading to a more robust and sustainable self-definition.
