## Identity Gap Analysis

### 1. Belief Audit
- Identify the core limiting beliefs embedded in the gap description
- Where these beliefs likely originated (family, culture, past experiences)
- Evidence that these beliefs are false or outdated

### 2. Identity Architecture
- What does the desired identity actually believe?
- How does the desired identity make decisions?
- What daily behaviors does the desired identity embody?

### 3. Gap Map
Build a clear map of the gap:
- Internal limitations (mindset, fear, self-concept, habits)
- External limitations (environment, relationships, resources, time)
- Priority order: which limitation to address first for the most leverage

### 4. Transformation Strategies
For each of the top 3 limitations:
- Root cause
- Specific behavioral intervention
- Affirmation or reframe
- Evidence-accumulation exercise (how to prove the new belief to yourself)

### 5. Identity Integration Plan
- Morning routine to reinforce the desired identity
- Decision filter question ("Would [desired identity] do this?")
- 30-day identity experiment with daily check-in prompt
