In this sentence, instead of saying you have chosen OF anything, you must say you have chosen TO become or TO be. The verb in the sentence is "have chosen", which is neither present nor past tense. It's present perfect tense. To make it simple past tense, you must use the past tense of "choose", which is chose. "I chose to be (or become)..."
