Calling it growth is easier than admitting you got bored of yourself.

means The act of remaking yourself — new habits, new style, new story — while quietly keeping the receipts of who you used to be.

from Straightforward Latin carpentry: 're-' (again) plus 'invention,' from 'invenire' — to come upon, to find. The same root that gives us 'inventory.' So reinvention literally means finding yourself again, which is either poetic or an admission that you misplaced yourself in the first place.
