Identity Empowerment Conversation Guide

In this article, we'll delve into the concept of identity empowerment, exploring its definition and it's significance.

Our Definition of Identity

“Identity” is what defines us in the eyes of others. It is who we want to become based on who we are, instead of what we do or what we (currently) are.

Your identity reflects “ you are a human being and not a human doing ”. In this regard, you need to distinguish between purpose-based identity versus the tasks you do. That is what you need to discover.

This is achieved through firstly discovering your unique talents based on completing the DNA Natural Behavior Discovery Process. Then in the Identity Empowerment Conversation you will be facilitated through the following 5 key areas with a range of exercises and self-reflection.

Identity Considerations

Some thoughts to consider about identity

While purpose is important, your identity is about how you want the world to see and
remember you. Also, it will be reflected in how you impact others and contribute to lives.
The framework for measuring your success in life comes from your identity and not money.
If you get your identity right, you can crush it in life, work and business with less hours – As Hugh Massie says: “work smarter, go further”.
Your identity will unlock the following in living a Quality Life:
- Wellbeing and joy.
- Creativity and inspiration.
- Abundance and personal power
- Love and connection
Discovering your identity and having the courage to live it will require envisioning your perfect life and changing your belief systems in some areas of your life to pave the way forward.
There may even be a need to eliminate what is merely good to allow true greatness in.
Reflection will be required of your life journey to date as the experiences and education you have had so far are part of creating your identity
An identity shift will come when we create a massive change in how we see ourselves in the world.
Acceleration will come when you execute on the new mission which comes as a result of identity clarity.
Allow yourself time on the journey to tap your “Default Mode Network” (DMN) so that quantum leaps can be made. When your brain is not focused on tasks, it can go into default mode of streaming creative thoughts and solving problems.
Ultimately, the world will reflect to you what you believe you are. You cannot affirm what you do not believe.
