There are things in life designed to subtly steal your time or render whatever time you have useless. These are the same things that keep you from achieving purpose.

It is important for you to know these things so that you know how to own your time.

The very first on this list is:

1. An Identity Crisis

“Who do men say that I, the Son of Man, am?” Matthew 16:13

One of the things that steals your time is a lack of knowing who you are. There are three components to a person’s identity. Your past, present and future, you must be able to reconcile all three together.

When you know where you are coming from and where you are right now, you can have an idea of where you are going to? These answers point out the way. It is important to totally sort this out because you cannot work with what you do not have.

It is because of an identity crisis that people struggle with ego, self esteem and insecurity.

It is a search for who we are that makes people go wandering, drifting about with every wind of novelty that blows their way.
