I couldn't disagree more. "Myself", insofar as I want to "be myself", describes my values rather than my habits. I often meet inspirational people who are very talented in ways I admire, and usually this is because of their habits, their wisdom, facts they've learned the hard way.
I do my best to notice how they've achieved this, and imitate whatever meshes with my personality, my priorities, and my values.
