> Your job should be your identity

if your job is your identity then be sure and put away some savings for therapy. The moment something happens to your job outside your control like getting laid off, company going under, workplace harassment, even nasty office politics then a mental crisis will soon follow.

Typical worst case scenario thinking that prevents you from even trying.

Compromise: Your vocation can be your identity (and you may not have found exactly what it is yet). Though if your particular workplace situation gets bad, you may want to detach from that one job, or find ways in which the imperfect job/situation can further the larger mission.
