Set your identity, then act as if... No excuses! | Kevin Brewer | Rise Again From The Struggle

Don't wait to try and be good at something before you call yourself that thing.

In fact, you should call yourself that thing before you start, so you actually start!

I did this with running. I called myself a runner so I would start acting like one. I needed the skill for the things I wanted to accomplish, but I tried to say I wasn't a runner? That didn't make sense.

So, I changed my identity. I started calling myself a runner. Then I acted like one. At first, I was a terrible runner. Now I'm a decent runner. I have a long way to go, but I'm putting in the work and acting as if...

No excuses!
