Answering the question, “Who are you?

Reinventing yourself requires you to learn from each new step you take. It's in the present that you can look back at your past and see past actions in a new, more experienced light, which is how reinvention begins. This connection to your journey is crucial in understanding your past and shaping your future.

Examining past choices and the changes they brought about is a key part of the reinvention process. It not only shows the path you've taken but also suggests your next steps.

Our lives change constantly, and those changes are additions to our life stories that enable us to see past events differently and contribute to seeing our past lives differently.

“How you arrange the plot points of your life into narrative shapes who you are and is a fundamental part of being human.” This is the subtitle in an interesting article titled Life’s Stories, published in The Atlantic in 2015. In that article, Monisha Pasupathi, a professor of developmental psychology at the University of Utah, offered much insight on this subject. She stated: “In order to have relationships, we’ve all had to tell little pieces of our story.”

Creating a narrative about the events in our lives triggers the conclusions of new experiences and knowledge our life has brought us. We could conclude that all we did was add clarity to what happened, but in looking back, we have new insights offering more clarity, and the events themselves take on new meaning. Through this experience, we reinvent who we are.
