THEORY SERIES — VOLUME VII
THE THEORY OF BECOMING
“What must the self release in order to become what it was meant to be?”
Becoming is not an instant reinvention. It is the disciplined transformation of identity through choice, resistance, practice, sacrifice, and truthful reflection.
BECOMING IS A PROCESS
Every former version of the self leaves something behind. Some identities are inherited, some are constructed for survival, and others emerge through disciplined growth. The Theory of Becoming investigates the space between who a person has been and who that person is actively forming into.
RELEASE
Examine the identities, habits, and inherited expectations that can no longer carry the journey forward.
