The Stories We Tell Ourselves Matter

If you want to change your behaviour, work towards changing your identity. As James Clear puts it, "true behavior change is identity change".

You’re not "someone trying to run"—you’re a runner.

You’re not "someone trying to write"—you’re a writer.

You’re not "someone trying to be organised"—you’re organised.

When you adopt a new identity, your actions follow.

The stories we tell ourselves matter.
