🚀2. NECESSITY THROUGH IDENTITY🚀

Definition: High performers see their goals as part of WHO they are. You don’t skip studying for a big test because studying is what a successful student does. 🎓

Example: "I stay late to finish my project because I’m a dedicated student and always give 100%."

Application:
