The Identity Loop
This isn't who you are. It is a pattern you run.
It’s hard to see it when you’re in it.
SIGNAL
You explain it if you have to.
That's just how you are.
You've said it before.
​​
You don't question it.
PATTERN
You've said it before.
You keep saying it.
The more you repeat it,
​
the more it feels true.
COST
You know what to expect.
So do they.
​
​
You stay the same.

You don't have to be.

INTERRUPT
FLAG -> MOVE -> VERIFY
Try something you wouldn’t normally do.
​
Don’t explain it.
​
Just see what happens.

They run patterns.

Another reinforces it.
A third keeps it in place.
