Wow! You digged into self-development more than I've ever seen. No one talks about the ugly side of personal growth. Self help coaches marinate the dessert without touching the main dish.

I agree the ugly side of change is that you lose a piece of you with each process. I've realized that until you accept the good, the bad and the ugly, you will feel stagnant.

I'm happy I found your piece. Thanks for the lesson. Do you mind if I reference this piece?
