Your sixteen-year-old self would lose it if they saw what you handle now.

You adapt faster than you notice, which is why what used to terrify you barely registers now. Conversations you would have avoided, responsibilities you would have called impossible, days that would once have taken everything you had: all of that is just a Tuesday. Being this close to your own progress is what makes it invisible.

Think back to what scared you at sixteen and set it against your current normal week. Be specific rather than general about it. That gap is real evidence, worth keeping in mind next time something looks too big.
