Not all who are wondering are lost

Who we are and what we do are very linked to how we feel every day in our lives
Why is losing our identity so painful? Mostly because identity brings us into the future and brings us a tomorrow that we like.
Who we are and what we do are very linked to how we feel every day in our lives. At work, I saw this link powerful with so many leaders that I worked with, no matter their education, nationality, experience, or gender.
I see people bitching about their work almost every day. And they continued to get up each day and go to work, although they said they did not like it. Why?
Our identity will make all our efforts worthless if our behaviors are not aligned.
Our behaviors reinforce our identity or the opposite.
And you cannot hit a target that you cannot see.
Most people are wishing for an identity that is defined by fulfillment, freedom, and joy. Very few, though, are behaving as such.
How do you align who you want to be with what you are doing, saying, or thinking and your habits?
Ask yourself :
What feelings do I have that are not fulfilling for you?
What am I chasing here?
What’s my goal?
