Your new life is going to cost you your old one. A snake sheds its skin. A caterpillar breaks through the cocoon. Growth asks us to release what once protected us but now limits us.
Improvement has an opportunity cost: the familiar. The work is not only becoming more. It is becoming willing to leave less behind.

Audit the identities you keep rehearsing, the environments that reward your smallest self, and the routines that protect you from meaningful risk. Metamorphosis begins with an honest goodbye.
