I’ve got the habbit of buying new stuff and starting new hobbies with the intent to create a new self/identity.
I buy a new guitar and practice for multiple years because I’d like to be seen as a cool guitarist. I’m not even sure if I really like playing guitar or that it’s only for the image people have of me.
I get new climbing gear because I want to be seen as an impressive climber. And so on…
Maybe it stems from a lack of self worth, I always feel like I gotta create a new and better version of myself.
​
So, got any book recommendations to combat this?

Walden by Thoreau. It’s fantastic and as relatable today as it was when it was written
{{The Life-Changing Magic of Tidying Up}}
