My problem with identities
Today marks one month of me starting a new consulting assignment as the Health and Wellness Officer of a diagnostics lab.
This morning just as I clicked on the compose button to write what was to be this today’s original musing, I got a call pertaining to this new role that required my urgent attention. And lo and behold, I forgot about the musing! And when I did remember at 2 pm, my mind said “Eh, as the person in charge of the health and wellness of so many people, this is bound to happen sometimes and it’s okay”
And that is exactly my problem with identities.
When I identified myself every Monday morning as a writer, it would bother me if I wasn’t able to write something I was proud of and got it out before noon. And today identifying myself as a health and wellness consultant, it didn’t really bother me about not sending this one out at all.
Nothing about the outcome would be different on either Monday- what was at stake in both cases was no musing being sent out before 12 noon. However, due to taking on different identifications each time, my experience was different in each case. And neither experience was closer than the other to my original reason for writing.
To send out these musings (or not) authentically and to create a possibility of a conversation with you.
Love & Light :)
PS: If my musing brought a parallel from your own life to mind, I hope that you will share it with me.
