Every update breaks something before it fixes something. Growth has patch notes too.

REFLECTION
Improvement is not smooth. When you change how you work or how you talk to people, things that used to run fine start glitching, because they were built around the old version of you. That awkward stretch is not evidence the change was wrong. It is evidence the change is real and the rest has not caught up.
Expect the mess rather than being surprised by it. When something feels worse a few weeks into a genuine change, write down what specifically broke. Most of it settles. What is left needed adjusting anyway and was being propped up by the old arrangement.
What broke in your life right after you changed something good?
