I'm of the opinion that a lot of people if not most arguably don't really make a choice about who they are. They don't live with intentionality, they don't consider their agency, they just run on autopilot with the baseline personhood they were built with.

I think you are spot-on with this, and that it very much includes many "successful" people who others automatically assume they should try to emulate. It's especially bad here in the US.

That's one of the things that bothers me with how western values can be in relation to success, there's this idea that a type of personality or attitude will mean success, but there's a lot of times where success just kind of happens, and money in sufficient quantities will reproduce independent of who's holding it, like some kind of virus.
