Being Who You Want to Become
Atomic Habits talks about shifting your identity to be the type of person who has embodies aspirational habits.
It’s more about “Who am I?” than “What do I want?”
It reminds of this song:
This song makes me ask, “What type of person am I?”
I’m the type of man living life like everyday, ey
Because I’m the type who thinks life should be play
I’m the type of person used to get drunk and get lit
Now I’m the type of person aint touchin none of that shit
Used to be the type be worried what you think
Now I’m in a dress rollerskating round the rink
I’m the type of nomad book a long ass flight next week
And I’m the type of man pleasuring my girl in the sheets
I’m the lone wolf type wandering leaving solo tracks
But I’m the type who much prefers running with the pack
I’m the type of hustler trynna stack it all the way
But I really want it all so I can give it all away
I’m the type to keep learning so I can grow
And I’m the type to risk it on the next roll
I’m the type of athlete who hits the gym like everyday
So I can be the type with my grandkids I’ma play
I’m the type coming up with hella ideas like all the time
And I’m the type never paying haters no mind
I’m the type to whip a Lambo round the block
But I’m the type to instead invest it all in stocks
I’m the type excited as fuck bout what’s next
So I’m the type like, “Hit me up man let’s connect!!”
And now, it makes me think. “Where do I want to go and who do I have to become to be the type of person who accomplishes that?”
That’s the next rap…
