[215] The Identity Audit

[215] The Identity Audit

We’re going to do something I’m calling the Identity Audit — a structured reflection that helps you separate what you are from what you do, and locate the Genius underneath the résumé. It is not a test you pass or fail. It’s a structured way of looking at yourself . You’re going to need a few minutes with this one. A journal if you use one, and the willingness to actually answer the questions rather than just nod at them. Ready? Let’s go. ~~~~ Want to schedule a free Flight Check to see if coaching is right for you?

[214] A Strength Called Honesty

The VIA Character Strengths framework names twenty-four strengths. And of all of them, Honesty might be the most misunderstood. We are more likely to think of honesty as how we relate to others, but it begins within ourselves first. Seeing yourself clearly takes courage, because once you see who you truly are, you have to take responsibility for that. ~~~~ The link mentioned in the episode:⁠⁠ Take the Genius Imprint Assessment⁠⁠ [https://edgx365.com/EDG-assessment] Michele Jennae is a Genius Hunter and Map Maker.

[213] Genius is Not a Job Title

Two people can hold identical job titles and have almost nothing in common at the level of Genius. And the same Genius can express itself as a teacher, a strategist, an artist, abuilder, a healer — across a whole lifetime of different forms. Genius is who you are before and after any and all job titles. ~~~~ Join the Genius Kaleidoscope on SKOOL! ⁠⁠⁠Genius Kaleidoscope [https://www.skool.com/every-day-genius-flight-school-6208] Michele Jennae is a Genius Hunter and Map Maker.

[212] What It Means to Walk Your Path

Antonio Machado wrote a line that has stayed with me for years. Caminante, no hay camino. Se hace camino al andar. Traveler, there is no path. The path is made by walking. I find that line both liberating and terrifying in equal measure. And I think that's exactly right. Because the path you are walking — the one that is yours, that belongs to your particular Genius, your particular calling, your particular figure eight — is not something that was laid out before you arrived.

[211] A Strength Called Spirituality

Spirituality means different things to different people. For some it's inseparable from religious faith. For others it's entirely secular — a felt sense of connection to something larger, a recognition that the individual life is embedded in something that extends beyond it. For others still, it's a word that carries enough baggage from past experiences that it needs to be approached slowly. All of that is welcome here. And today we look at it as a strength.
