In this short Quality of Mind snippet, we explore why seeing through self-identification matters.

The central misunderstanding is that we take ourselves to be a separate self.

A person who has to be improved, protected, managed, fixed, developed and proven.

But what if that “self” is not what we fundamentally are?

When we believe we are this separate self, life can become a constant project of identity-management. We try to control, upgrade and succeed as something that may not actually be solid in the first place.

That can create enormous stress and psychological pressure.

Quality of Mind points to the possibility of seeing through this Case of Mistaken Identity.

As that becomes clearer, something relaxes.

The fight with reality softens.The pressure to manage the “me” eases.More peace, clarity, resilience, creativity and possibility become available.
