Comfortably Dumb
You’d sleep on a comfortable mattress but not a complacent one. But if you stay on that comfortable mattress long enough, you might become complacent.
We want comfort. But too much comfort for too long can lead to complacency. Knowing that, I’d suggest that getting too comfortable and for too long is dumb.
You’ll know when that feeling of being overly comfortable starts to seep into your life. There’ll be a slight uneasiness. You’ll start to wonder when the other shoe is going to drop. Everything will start to feel a little bit… off.
That’s when you need to shake things up. Make a move — even a small move. Any kind of shift will lead to some discomfort, which is a good thing in this case. Resisting change of any sort will bring complacency into your world.
Remember that comfort can lead to complacency and complacency will lead to collapse.
Once collapse happens, you’ve got a very uncomfortable journey ahead to get back to the life that you want to lead.
