Your identity must die. Kill the idea of being able to fit yourself into a box or a general niche. Gym guy, Biz shark, Health bro, Social dude, Spiritual student.

Go as deep as YOU WANT into everything YOU find interesting. You’ll know what it is by what makes you inspired and excited. Go find out what you are. Life.
Big Sean says the only thing you should teach your child growing up is confidence

"I'm confident that I will always have whatever it is I need to be the person that I strive to be...I will always have enough"
Major cheat code for life: Become difficult to rush. The world will pressure you to rush into everything. Rushed decisions. Rushed conversations. Rushed relationships. Rushed timelines. There's immense power in rejecting that trend. Slow down. Create space to think clearly.
