There is so much growth in knowing that you will show up because you’re who you are and then being able to take a rest because you’re a human. The marriage of identity, discipline and trusting your body’s safety is goals! I’m working on learning that discipline is developing balance on and off the mat, honoring my body as a martial arts via food planning, saying I don’t need that extra food/alcohol but I do need extra sleep, honoring that some days look like being on the mat for 2 hours and some day look like being a full time financial advisor and Mom. Having the discipline to honor yourself and trust yourself through it all ….work in progress!

Honestly look forward to reading your substacks so much. I am training to become a Neuro Linguistic Programming Practioner and this reminded me of one of the models we just learned: six logical levels to understand and facilitate change. These levels, often visualized as a hierarchy, include Environment, Behavior, Capabilities, Beliefs and Values, Identity, and Purpose. Changes at higher levels can impact lower levels, while changes at lower levels may not always affect higher ones!

So yeah identity will change everything else! ❤️
