Being in a comfortable position in life is very pleasing. I’m sure it’s a goal most people want to achieve. The problem, however, is that life happens.
What does that mean?
Well, nothing is permanent in this world. I think in most cases, people find comfort in the external. But, everything external to our thoughts can be taken away at any time.
Coincidently, you need to voluntarily step away from comfort to achieve great things. The same comfort that is giving you good feelings is also holding you back from your best self. Your potential is beaming from side to side in order to break through that comfort zone so that you can level up as a person, in skill, in your relationship, etc.
I have a proposal.
If you find yourself feeling too comfortable in any way (relationship, job, skill, etc.), why not voluntarily break through that comfort zone and try to level up on your own terms?
That feeling of comfort can be taken away at any moment anyway. It’s outside your control.
Open up the jar; let your potential soar to new heights. You may look back with a feeling of gratitude & fulfillment.
Or, keep the jar closed.
Worst case scenario, the jar is taken away from you by force.
But, I think there is a worse scenario still. You’d keep the jar in this case, but you will look in the mirror and wonder what could have been.
Until next time, friend.
