You do not always become confident, disciplined, or creative first and then begin acting that way.

You do not always become confident, disciplined, or creative first and then begin acting that way. Often the order is reversed. You repeat a small action, and over time your mind accepts it as evidence of who you are. Every workout is a vote for being someone who trains. Every page you write strengthens the identity of a writer. Every promise you keep makes you more trustworthy, first in your own eyes. Identity is not built only through words. It is formed through repeated evidence.
