You feel uneasy in certain social situations.
Because youre not the same person anymore.

Youve found that you want to beinspiredorchallengedrather than simply preoccupied.
Your hobbies or passions have changed.
Youve learned that its okay to say no to things you dont actually enjoy doing.

You have anxiety over what you could be doing to better yourself instead of FOMO over social events.
Before, you used to stress over what you were missing.
Youve let some unhealthy people/relationships drift.

You have mixed feelings when you look back at old photographs of you.
In some ways, youre so proud to see where youve come from.
Looking at old photographs gives you inspiration, but also a burning desire to leave whatwasbehind you.
You cringe when you see other people going with the status quo just to make things easier.
Youve learned the power of your own voice and the value of making your own decisions.
So when you see someone bending to fit someone elses mold, it makes you squeamish.
You make decisions that surprise you.
Youve had a falling out with someone you used to care very deeply for.
You dont always follow the rules.
Instead, you make the rules, deciding for yourself who and what you want to do or be.
Sometimes you say things that you never thought you would.
In the past, you used to shut your mouth.
Now you speak your truth.
You no longer depend on other peoples thoughts and perspectives to shape your own.
Sometimes your former self is unrecognizable.
Sometimes you look back at who you used to be and dont really recognize that person.
Sometimes you look in the mirror and have a hard time reconciling the new face with your old memories.
