(Part 9xw of 11)
(Identity and identifiers) is a common primary topic and secondary aspect of many, if not all, messages on this blog.
One way to capture a nugget of this information is as follows:
1. Each of us have at least three alter egos.
a) Who others think we are.
b) Who we think we are.
c) Who we really are.
In suboptimal conditions, these do not match at all or match partially and thinly.
When optimal conditions exists, these three are becoming one.
Be not deceived however. Who others think we are is the least important and the last thing we should care about. Yet, we must be aware of what others think in order to help us navigate those relationships (interactions).
Unknown to myself until just now, this list is presented in reverse importance order. This is because we are in suboptimal times and place the greatest emphasis on who others think we are, thus we try to live up to that. This then creates a great imbalance and stagnant cesspool of logic between our other two alter egos. Time to flip the script by starting with “who we really are.”
