You can change who you are

I'm not talking about a criminal changing his identity so nobody can find him.

I'm talking about changing who you really are. You can be a new you.

Many people define who they are by what they do (or have done) for a living. They will say, I'm a teacher, I'm a carpenter, I'm an engineer, or I'm a manager.

I had a doctor once who got a degree in mechanical engineering, and then decided he didn't enjoy doing that, so he went back to school and became a doctor.

Maybe you don't want to make such a big change, at least not at your age.

The key to change is to realize that you can become who you tell your brain you are.

Your occupation or your previous job does not define you.

If you constantly tell your brain that you're not a morning person or that you're not good at being organized, your brain will help you make that true.

But if you repeatedly tell your brain that you're an organized morning person who likes to run, travel, and make YouTube videos, your brain will help you make it happen.

To be a different person, you don't have to move somewhere new to make it happen. In some cases, that might help, but it's unnecessary.

In Jimmy Buffett's famous song, Changes in Latitudes, Changes in Attitudes, he describes how being in a different location will help change the way you think.

Also, the people you hang out with will have an enormous influence on your life and who you are. You may need to make changes in that area as well.

Bottom line: You can change who you are if you want to. It will take some effort, but you can do it.

If you want to live a different life, start by changing who you tell yourself (and your brain) you are. If you need help to do that, click on the link below and listen to a few of Jimmy Buffett's songs.
