Who are you when you stop telling yourself who you are? Pause for a moment, close your eyes, and envision your life as a blank page, free from the endless narrative you've been repeating. Without the stories imposed by others or yourself, what remains?

It’s a deceptively simple question, but one that most people never stop to consider. We move through life, carrying the weight of our past, our roles, our expectations, and the stories we’ve been told since childhood.

Over time, countless self-help strategies have emerged to address this perceived problem of identity, treating it as though it’s something fundamentally broken that needs fixing. Popular methods often focus on reshaping habits, rewiring thought patterns, or setting goals based on who we think we should be. The underlying assumption is that we are the sum of our behaviors, thoughts, and past experiences—that our identity is a fixed construct made up of parts that can be rearranged or optimized. Modern interpretations of the word ego—originally a term rooted in psychological theory—have become shorthand for everything from self-importance to insecurity, with many self-help systems offering ways to “tame” or “overcome” the ego. These approaches treat the ego as the problem to be solved, like an organism of its own living within us, rather than simply the tendency to think of ourselves as a fixed self.

But what if this fixation on the self and self-improvement is missing the point entirely? Instead of recognizing that we are ever-changing, fluid beings, many strategies reinforce the illusion that we are defined by the stories we've inherited and told ourselves. What if, rather than trying to fix who we are, the real freedom lies in questioning whether those stories are based on any truth at all?

Throughout history, many have questioned the idea of a fixed, unchanging self. From ancient traditions to modern thinkers, people have long recognized that who we are is not set in stone, but shaped by our experiences. This idea suggests that your identity is not something you are born with or something you inherit from society—it’s a living, evolving narrative. Nietzsche, for example, argued that the self is not stable but is constantly in flux, reshaped by every moment. The belief that you are a fixed entity may feel comforting, but it often becomes a psychological and cultural trap, holding you to roles and expectations that no longer fit or serve you.

As you navigate life, you will continue to find that you are not defined by your past, your roles, or the stories others have told about you. While these factors may have shaped how you see yourself, they do not capture the entirety of who you are. Whether you realize it or not, much of your sense of ‘self' is shaped by external forces—family, society, and circumstance. It’s time to consider whether these labels truly reflect who you are in this moment. The notion of a fixed, unchanging self may feel reassuring because it offers certainty in an unpredictable world. But this certainty can also become a trap—limiting you to outdated, superficial definitions that do not reflect your potential.

It's time to embrace the limitless potential of your ever-changing story, knowing you can rewrite it with each experience. The tales that once defined you were simply chapters—now, you hold the pen to craft something new.

The self you think you are is much like a rough draft—pieced together from the stories you’ve been telling yourself, or been told, all your life. These narratives often sound familiar: “I’m a good person,” “I’m not good enough,” or “I always fail.” These beliefs shape your sense of identity and dictate how you approach your life, influencing your decisions, your reactions, and even your sense of success or failure. But what if these stories aren’t reality? What if they’re just early drafts, full of revisions waiting to be made? When you step back and ask yourself whether these stories are serving you, you create space to rewrite them.

If you think about it, many of the stories you cling to are not even your own. Much of the identity you hold onto—whether tied to your career, relationships, or personal traits—has been shaped by external forces: family, society, and circumstance. While it may seem comforting to hold onto a fixed sense of who you are, this often becomes a trap—a limiting narrative that keeps you stuck. Rather than seeing yourself as confined by these definitions, recognize that you are a blank page, capable of being rewritten with each new experience.

Take the story of Viktor Frankl, a Holocaust survivor who faced circumstances that wiped his previous identity clean, leaving him with nothing but a blank page. In the depths of unimaginable suffering, he discovered that his true freedom didn’t depend on his external situation—it was rooted in his ability to rewrite his story. Frankl chose to see himself not as a victim of circumstance, but as someone capable of finding meaning, even in the darkest times.

Frankl’s experience demonstrates that the stories we tell ourselves are never permanent, despite how immutable they might seem. They are rough drafts, waiting for us to rewrite them. The power lies in recognizing that these narratives are only as strong as we allow them to be. When we shift our attitude towards them, we can reshape the way we see ourselves, regardless of external challenges.

For years, Jim Carrey was known as a funny man—a persona the world adored. But as he once revealed, the person behind that role felt trapped. While Frankl was stripped of his identity by external circumstances, Carrey found himself imprisoned by a character he had helped create.

He was always performing, not just on stage, but in life. The comedian, the celebrity, the man the world admired—it was all a carefully crafted identity. But beneath it, he felt empty.

“I think everybody should get rich and famous and do everything they ever dreamed of, so they can see that it's not the answer,” Carrey once said. After years of playing a role, he came to a realization: the “self” he thought he was—famous, adored, validated by others—was only as real as his commitment to it. It was just a story. And stories can be rewritten.
