Active Friction
Your responses indicate that internal friction is likely increasing the cost of your leadership.
This does not suggest weakness.
It suggests misalignment between who you have become and how you are currently operating.
Decision making may feel heavier.
Momentum may require effort to sustain.
Authority may feel subtly diluted.
Externally, performance can remain strong.
Internally, the cost rises.
What This Means
Friction at this stage usually stems from internal negotiation.
Between past identity and current responsibility.
Between expectation and ownership.
Between performance and alignment.
The solution is not reinvention.
It is restoration.
When internal agreement is restored, decisions become calm again.
Momentum returns naturally.
Why This Matters
If left unaddressed, friction compounds.
It leads to hesitation.
Overthinking.
Energy leakage.
Leadership becomes expensive.
