We use a simple phrase to make sense of change: everything has a beginning, a middle, and an end. We share how dopamine, identity, sunk cost, and the 80/20 rule shape the choices we make when it’s time to move on. 
• the idea that every situation moves through three stages 
• why beginnings feel exciting and hopeful through novelty and dopamine 
• why endings can threaten identity and trigger sunk cost thinking 
• Peter’s removals business story and staying longer than he should 
• Sharon’s move back to the UK and the moment the ending became clear 
• overlap between endings and new beginnings in real working life 
• using Pareto’s law 80/20 as a practical “stay or go” check 
• the ranch and football examples of the ratio slowly flipping 
• spotting the middle sooner through pulse checks and honest reflection 
• presenteeism at work and how assumptions and expectations erode engagement
