"Consider how different you feel as a self in  various roles and contexts in your life: as a boss, or an employee; as an owner of a business, or as a customer;  as a parent, or as a child; in the company of  specific friends , or colleagues. Notice how context dependent your sense of you own personality is. You'll almost certainly find that some ways of being are natural in one context and totally unavailable in others. It is like when  moving from room to room in your life, you have a different mind. This isn't a problem, necessarily, but it does reveal that the self isn't quite what it seems.  (Sam Harris, Moment, Waking Up app) "
