Iâll be honestâthere was a time I called it growth, but really I was just running.
Every new book, habit, or mindset shift looked and felt like progress⌠but underneath, I was avoiding the one truth I didnât want to face.....
The self weâre chasing is often the self weâve been avoiding.
Growth isnât always expansion. Sometimes itâs subtraction. Most often, its subtraction...
We live in a culture obsessed with becoming.
New hacks, new habits, new identities. Always chasing the ânext versionâ of ourselves.
But hereâs the paradox: the more I chased growth, the further I drifted from the truth.
Most of my âprogressâ was just avoidance in disguiseâadding layers when what I really needed was to strip them away.
Real transformation isnât about becoming someone new.
Itâs about remembering who you already areâand having the courage to stop running from it.
When you finally do, everything simplifies:
Decisions get lighter.
The noise fades.
What once felt like âgeniusâ simply feels like you, unblocked.
đ So hereâs my question for you:
Are you chasing new answersâor avoiding the one truth you already know but donât want to face?
