what you do determines who you are

what you do determines who you are – not the other way around. i’ve been thinking about how culture and social media push the idea that identity is something you are first and then act out later. i don’t believe that. i think identity is shaped by what we do repeatedly through routine and the small choices we make when no one is watching. I hope this video invites you to look at life from a different angle especially with the start of the new year. the passage read at the beginning of the video comes from an essay that explores this idea in more depth. you can read it here: https://theoutline.com/post/8627/rais... if this video resonated with you and you want more practical depth on topics like this, join my patreon: for the few. i offer monthly guides, weekly studio table live sessions, letters, playlists and a community of women doing the work alongside you. link below: patreon:   / 4thefew   shop my artwork: https://www.blueomari.com/ instagram:   / blueomari   apple music profile:   / profile   new playlist is 'omari' spotify version: https://open.spotify.com/playlist/6ZI...
