Why do people say that your circumstances do not define you?
I say these things to spark in people the understanding that they’re not alone. The idea that if I did it, you can too. And the reminder that regardless of whatever you’re facing in your life right now, there is only one person that can change it. Only you have the power to create a new story for yourself.
When do you realize you are not your circumstances?
People have 20/20 vision when they’re looking back on choices they have made.

So no matter what’s happened to you, it’s time to build confidence back and realize you are not your circumstances.

Do you look at your circumstances as positive or negative?
Look at the different circumstances you have been in and consider the self-talk you use to connect who you are with what has happened. It isn’t always negative, either; let’s say you won an event and you are intelligent for doing so, or that you got the opportunity to pursue a dream vacation or job and you are smart as a result.
