That's fine if someone loves the old version of you, if they don't want you to change. Let them continue loving the old, it's non of your business, your agenda is to be successful not to stay stagnant.

This is only because the old you was comfortable with them but not comfortable with you. Imagine you laughing at their jokes that was not even funny just to keep the peace going, is that not madness. You stayed quiet when you should have spoken up just to keep the friendship. You said yes even when every part of you screamed no. No, that madness is over, everyone has their own personal race to run. So you have choose to run yours without them.
That version of you was very easy to love because it never asked anyone to grow with you.Then you suddenly changed. The next thing they saw that you started protecting your time like it was gold. You walked away from conversations that drained your soul. You choose discipline over distraction, silence over drama, ambition over approval. You began building a life that finally feels like it's your life for thr first time. And suddenly what happened?? that same people who claimed to love you will start acting like you betrayed them.
The next thing they will start saying is “You’re not fun anymore.” “You’ve changed.” "Who do you think you are?” " the society has influence you". Those your friends has changed you.
With all this stupid questions, they are trying to tell you to Come back to the smaller box they put you in where your growth is making them uncomfortable. Let me tell you thr hard, freeing truth real love doesn’t clip wings, real love builds bigger cages or tears the cage down completely. Anyone in your life who punishes you for becoming more wasn’t loving you they were loving the convenience of who you used to be.
So I will tell you today to let them go.
Let them miss the version of you that apologized for existing too loudly, you don’t live there anymore so the new you isn’t for everyone.
If you check very well most people who say this are actually your friends you make outside.
So when things get like this, remember that new version of you needs a man that wakes up 5 a.m to workouts, fight to score thr scary goals, build during the quiet nights, until he gets to the future that finally fits him.
After putting away the people that's wants you to go back to the old you. The new version will choose people that aligns with your believe. Because the right people won’t just handle your growth, they will water your growth. and one day you’ll look around and realize the crowd changed not because you pushed anyone away, but because you finally stopped pulling them with you while you rose.
Remember the new version of you deserves a standing ovation even if you’re the only one clapping for now, one day the people that rejected you will clap for you.

Yes CHANGE making change it is very necessary thing in everyone's life, it is important that you adjust yourself everyday to new lifestyle life pattern, and keep extracting the old you until you are fully transformed make new decisions, decisions that will push you through get disciplined so what those lovers of your old self say to you will not break you down rather it will push you forward to your greatness.
Out of the many that will try to talk you down from the ladder to being your new self, something will want to make this good change with you it's very okay to carry people along but you have to be careful some are not lending hand to you on this ladder to go up with you, they are there to add more pressure to you push, you to see how strong you can be and to see if you would fall.
So watch your back, extract the old self confidently, let haters hate you must not be worth the society want.

Carry others along and becareful
It's the fact, sometimes when you want to grow, some people will want to follow you up but take note and be careful of who is following you
Exactly, that is a lesson to hold on to
