And so, in this episode, we talk about how identity is built and how framing your future self will lead you to ultimate success in life.  Dr. Hardy explains why personality tests like Myers-Briggs and Enneagram are not just unscientific but also harmful, and how labels can negatively impact your identity and can lead to a fixed mindset and ultimately a mediocre life. At the end of the conversation, Dr. Hardy deconstructs what confidence is, how you can build it and also develop a growth mindset so you can realize your full potential.

LEARN MORE ABOUT DR. HARDY´S BRAND-NEW BOOK – PERSONALITY ISN´T PERMANENT

Personality Isn’t Permanent debunks the pervasive myths of personality that have captured pop culture. For example, personality tests like Myers-Briggs and Enneagram are not only psychologically destructive but are no more scientific than horoscopes. Personality Isn’t Permanent provides science-based strategies for reframing past memories, becoming the scribe of your identity narrative, upgrading your subconscious, and redesigning your environment. When you know the truth of personality, desired personal change can be dramatic and directed. When you don’t, personality is something you seek to discover rather than create.
