Can you create your own Identity?
Can you create your own Identity?
All of us, at some point, have wondered whether we can get rid of parts of our identity that we do not like and create an identity that we like.
The answer is Yes, you can consciously choose to create your own Identity that serves you in creating your best, purposeful, and impactful life and change your self-identity, which is your perspective of your identity or personal sense of who and what you are especially if it does not benefit you.
So, you may be wondering, what exactly does your identity mean? Let’s discuss that next.
What is your Identity (Who am I)?
If you ask most people who are you? The answer will most likely be followed by their name, role (mum, sister, etc), a profession (doctor, dentist, etc).
We also identify with our gender, nationality, social class, age, race, physical characteristics, and abilities/disabilities.
Our self-identity is the way we define ourselves. This includes our values, beliefs, and personality. Our past memories, hopes for the future, as well as our hobbies and interests are also ways that we define ourselves.
These identifications are based on the worldly acquired titles or roles we fulfill in our family or society and they do determine how you experience life and play a significant role in forming your self-identity.
They imply that you did not exist before coming on this earth or would cease to exist upon your death when you are no longer any of those previously mentioned answers.
The real you which is your spirit existed before you came into this world physically and will continue to exist when you leave the earth.
You are a physical extension of source energy and have values that are aligned to it. You are an infinite creative force with unlimited possibilities.
You are a vibrational blessed loving being. You are abundance, harmony, joy, love, peace, compassion, and wellbeing by nature.
We have all come on this earth to fulfill a purpose. We are here to grow, love and serve others based on our natural talents and god-given gifts.
Why is it good to create your own identity?
Your thought vibrations radiate intentions. You create your reality and experiences and there is nothing you cannot be, do and have when you have a strong identity and self-identity.
When your desires are a vibrational match to the source energy and there is no resistance you attract and receive whatever you want. You were born with this knowledge.
Therefore, it is important to maintain a strong identity, self-identity, and belief to chart your autonomous path confidently and build your best life that is in alignment with your values, purpose and vision.
People with strong self-identity are also confident, and resilient to navigate through life’s major challenges.
Self-identity is also important in establishing good boundaries with your family, friends and partner.
Where did your identity come from?
While you are in the womb, everything is in divine order. Your soul enters your body, your heart starts beating, all your organs and body parts are formed and start functioning at the perfect time and without any interference from anybody.
As soon as you are born, your family, culture, and the society takes over. You internalize what you see, hear and experience.
Parents teach you what they learnt from their parents and hence the cycle of multigenerational habits, traditions, beliefs, programming starts.
You develop personality traits that serve you within your family, community, culture and society. You learn what to say, not to say, and how to behave to get your parents, siblings, friends, teachers and other people’s approval and love.
You begin to identify and form an attachment to your ego which is an image that is not your true identity. This leads to the feeling of superiority or inferiority in relationships.
We view some roles in society as higher than others. We get attached to these roles and make them our identity.
Every soul deserves the same respect regardless of the role and societal status. We are all equal at the soul level.
You also develop other limiting beliefs about self-worth, how much money you are capable of earning, etc. These beliefs sabotage you from your true potential of abundance and infinite possibilities.
Your programming leads you to form your self-identity and beliefs that guide your thoughts, feelings, results, and destiny.
It is hard to be aware of the above-mentioned because this process takes place in your subconscious mind.
95% of your daily actions in the day are controlled by your subconscious mind. Your subconscious mind works at a much faster speed than your conscious mind.
Your brain has formed neural pathways for efficiency based on your repeated thought patterns.
You have created the results that you currently have in your life by your thoughts and beliefs. You experience life as who you are, you get what you think about, and your inner life determines your results in your outer life.
You must change your identity and self-identity to live your best purposeful, meaningful, and harmonious life.
How do you create your own identity?
The good news is, now that you are aware of who you truly are (a limitless and formless soul with a body), you can now be empowered to take 100% responsibility for your life, live an authentically powered life guided by your soul, and let go of old ways of thinking.
If you are committed and willing then there is nothing that will be impossible for you to attain.
You are now called to reorganize your life based on what your soul needs rather than what your small sense of self and role needs.
When you listen to the call of your soul, you move towards growth, self-love, spirituality, greater fulfillment, and living in alignment with your higher selves. If you do not listen, your emotional and physical health both suffer.
You can no longer live your life as a victim by blaming, complaining, and justifying why you cannot achieve what you want in life. You can change the programming. You choose your personality traits and beliefs when you were a child.
Your beliefs and personality traits were formed when you were little and now that you know as a conscious being, you can choose to stop believing in these sabotaging beliefs from running your life.
According to studies done by Dr. Lipton, your biology (Cells and DNA) can be changed by your beliefs and thoughts.
Shift your thinking to align to source energy. Rediscover your original nature which is sincerity, generosity, service, kindness, compassion, peace, joy, abundance, harmony, and reverence for all living things.
You access divine energy and manifest what you desire when aligned with your creator. Catch and stop the negative habitual thoughts that do not serve you and are not for your and others’ greater good.
When you start listening to your soul, you realize that your true identity, greater joy, and fulfillment do not come from material things, even though you may appreciate and enjoy them.
You experience a deep desire to be of service and make an impact in other people’s lives. You feel something needs to be created, birthed, or expressed through you.
You start asking: who am I and what is my purpose? You long to find and connect with like-minded people who are asking the same questions.
You have a sense that you need to shed and let go of things that do not serve your emerging higher self like relationships and limiting beliefs. You are open and curious about deepening your connection with your creator.
You have a desire to live in alignment with your authentic and highest self. You discover spiritual laws.
You can now choose to live your life consciously and be fully present in every moment of your day. Remove judgement and resistance from what is happening. When you blame, justify, explain you negate your capabilities.
Take the time every day to contemplate, think, and meditate. What you focus upon expands. Your soul can only open to guidance if you learn to sit in silence alone. Align your thinking to your creator.
Heath, success, and happiness will flow into your life.
Align with your passion, purpose, and soul’s calling. Serve whoever is in front of you, as compassion is your true nature.
Your emotions and feelings serve as indicators of whether you are aligned with the source in any given moment or not.
It is important to be aware that whenever you feel love, joy, peace, and abundance, you are more likely aligned to your creator and when you feel anger, jealousy, fear and doubts, you are misaligned.
In conclusion, know that you have the power to create your own best meaningful and impactful life. You can adapt an identity that will help you serve your purpose on this earth and is aligned with your soul’s calling.
