Outgrow the reasons you once thought stopping made sense.

The reasons you once stopped were probably sound at the time. You lacked skill, or support, or the situation was genuinely too much. What happens next is that the reasons stay in place after the conditions change, and you keep obeying a decision made by someone with less than you have now. Outgrowing them is less about courage than about noticing they are out of date.

List what made you stop the last time you abandoned something that mattered. Check each item against your present life. Some will still hold, and some will surprise you by having quietly expired.
