Every human being has a UNIQUE IDENTITY, which is expressed in terms self-concept, sense of meaning and purpose.
If you don’t have a self-concept and understanding of what you want in life, you will settle for anything that comes your way; because you can never succeed beyond the limitations of your own belief.
Your belief system would become your reality. This is the reason why a limiting belief system is an identity trap and a form of modern day enslavement.
To maximize your potentials, you must first unlearn the myths, opinions and limitations you have acquired regarding your personal identity and purpose in life.
This is because whatever or whoever you constantly blame for your lack of success; you have ignorantly empowered against your success.
In the words of Ralph Waldo Emerson, “To be yourself in a world that is constantly trying to make you something else is the greatest accomplishment.”
We live in a world where on daily basis we are reminded of our limitations, rather than our potentials and unique identities.
The purpose of this discourse, is to remind you that you are very special and unique, and no circumstances or opinion can change that. But its your responsibility to UNLOCK YOUR UNNIQUE IDENTITY.
Whenever you accept anyone else’s assessment or opinion of you as a reality, you become entrapped by their judgement and validation. Hence, you inadvertently place a glass ceiling to your limitless potentials and progress.
Notwithstanding, you can re-write and re-design the story of your life because someone else’s opinion of you doesn’t have to become your reality and personal identity.
This brings me to my next point:
Your current lifestyle is the manifestation of your Personal Belief System and if this depends on other People’s Opinions, then you’re in trapped in the vicious cycle of identity crisis.
To transform your life you must first unlearn every limiting beliefs and deconstruct every self-sabotaging opinions and mindset.
Only then can you start the process of reprogramming your mind with New Self-concept and Belief System that are congruent to your Unique Identity and Potentials.
This is because you can never change the Outward Personality without first changing the Inward Personality.
That’s why my favourite book says “Don’t copy the behavior and customs of this world, but let God transform you into a new person by changing the way you think. Then you will learn to know God’s will for you, which is good and pleasing and perfect.” Rom12:2 NLT
The following are the 6 STEPS TO UNLOCK YOUR UNIQUE IDENTITY:
1. Recognise Your Uniqueness: The solution to identity-crisis is to embrace the fact that you have a unique identity and that makes you a Masterpiece
I like this quote from Albert Einstein, “Everybody is a genius. But if you judge a fish by its ability to climb a tree, it will live its whole life believing that it is stupid.”
2. Identify Your Purpose: you were not born on this planet earth by accident, you are alive today because you have a unique purpose and role to play, before you exit this planet.
That purpose should contribute to inspiring and adding value to other people’s live, rather keeping them in servitude.
3. Redefine Your Story: All the challenges, failures or success you have experienced so far, are to prepare you for that unique purpose. And not to limit your potentials to other people’s opinion of yourself.
The challenges you face in life can either make you bitter or make you better.
4. Identify and Delete Wrong Files: Make up your mind today to identify and begin to de-construct every limiting beliefs, ideologies and mental strongholds that have kept you in the bondage of identity crisis and entrapment.
This might mean that you would have to unlearn the myths, opinions, perceptions and limitations you have accepted as your reality.
5. Know Thy Self: In a world led with a herd mentality and racial profiling, standing out from the pack is not always easy but it is often the only way to walk your true-life path.
This reminds me of the amazing quote, “You were born an original, don’t die a copy.”
6. Use Affirmation: If you don’t remind yourself of who you are, anyone can call or label you what you are not, to negatively influence your identity.
Here are some examples of affirmations I normally use: You can follow these examples to create your own affirmation to suit your purpose:
1. I am God’s Masterpiece because I am masterfully crafted and branded for excellence, with a unique identity that separates me from the crowd.
2. I am always strategically positioned to attract the right people and opportunities.
3. All things work together for my good, therefore, I can never be disadvantaged.
4. I have limitless potentials and I am unstoppable
5. I’m amazing, I’m strong and I’m happy with my unique identity
6. I love myself just the way I’m, because I’m a treasure of inestimable value.
I hope you find these nuggets very useful and inspiring. I look forward to your comments
