You are so right, ego and identity have a lot to do with this diagnostic category, and are behind the moment when this type of decision starts to break down.
But funny you should mention this, because our next Decision Analysis is exactly about this: identity-fused decisions.
Another excellent thought provoking article. That question “whose conviction are you renting?” Is quite uncomfortable when I look closer at my own situation. Plenty for me to think about.
That’s high praise coming from you. I’m glad this specific question touched you; it’s one I’ve had to ask myself more than once.
Also, I really appreciate your candor. As authors, we’re often the ones posing these questions, but sitting with the answers ourselves is where the real work happens.
Thank you for reading and for sharing that reflection.
This is excellent!! We so often just make casual conclusions and our ego forces us to stick to it!

Great minds!
