:Yes, that paragraph is a little off-topic. There may not be enough content to justify a standalone "Global opinions" section. Maybe it would fit better in the "Concerns" section. Or otherwise, I don't mind getting [[Special:Diff/1295617438|my edit]] reverted if it solves the problem. What do you think?

The Old You vs The New You

You have to understand something
0:04
fundamental about who you used to be.
0:06
The old you, the one you're trying to
0:08
leave behind,
0:10
wasn't built to thrive, wasn't built to
0:13
conquer, wasn't even built to dream big.
0:17
That version of you was built to
0:18
survive. It was pieced together through
0:21
struggle, patched up by pain, molded by
0:23
circumstances that demanded you just
0:25
make it through the day. And for a
0:27
while, that version served you. It
0:29
protected you. It kept you from falling
0:30
apart. But it was never designed to take
0:32
you to the life you want. It was never
0:34
built for success, just for endurance.
0:37
So when you feel that resistance as
0:39
you're trying to grow. When you feel
0:40
that internal tug pulling you back to
0:43
old habits, it's not because you're
0:45
weak. It's because the old structure of
0:48
your identity is collapsing. And that
0:50
collapse feels like chaos.
0:53
But in truth, it's creation. You are

0:58
doesn't just survive, but someone who
1:00
builds, leads, and transforms. The
1:03
problem is most people think survival is
1:05
