This document discusses the differences between a static identity and a dynamic identity. It provides examples of people who exhibit each type of identity. A static identity is defined by one's past qualifications, achievements and knowledge gained. People with a static identity are proud of their past accomplishments but do not seek growth or help others. A dynamic identity is focused on one's potential and willingness to grow, take on responsibilities, and make a positive impact. The document analyzes examples of a peon, teacher and bus conductor to show behaviors of static versus dynamic identities. It concludes that having a dynamic identity allows one to continually improve and contribute beyond themselves.

What is Identity
• Identity is a term which needs to be defined properly.
• Identity does not mean Name, Family Name, Father’s name, your
achievements, your qualifications etc. though this too is known as
a type of identity, it is not a true Contributors identity.
• A Contributors Identity is their vision, their potential to contribute,
their urge to contribute and their eagerness to take responsibilities.
• A true contributor is identified by such values.

6. 
Non-contributors usually define themselves in terms of :
 what they have acquired in life (e.g. qualifications, position,
years of experience, etc.). This is a static identity, based on
 your past glories or past failures. This static identity leaves
