When Scrooge says "I am not the man I was," he is acknowledging that he has undergone a significant transformation in his character and behavior. He is expressing self-awareness and admitting that he has changed for the better after his encounters with the Christmas spirits, leading him to become more compassionate, generous, and kind.
