You Are Not Your Job
You are not one thing.
When you define yourself by your job or your work, you end up missing out on many important other elements of your identity.
You are not your job; your life role or your responsibilities; your achievements; your past or present; your relationship; your body; your mind; your health; your personality; your present emotions; your pains; your experiences; your struggles; your productivity levels; or other people’s opinions or ideas about who you should be.
You are so much more: you are a human being who is full of love, who is unique and layered and multifaceted, teeming with beauty and goodness.
You are full of potential, so much of it already expressed and even more of it left to uncover, explore and share with the world.
And you are not a limited self, either. You are a part of this world, interconnected with people and communities and nature and all of humanity.
Any time you catch yourself operating under a limited definition of who you are, remind yourself: you are so, so much more.
